Will you guys ever learn not to declare games over until they're actually over?

Will you guys ever learn not to declare games over until they're actually over?

These games were supposed to clear cut Pat MAHOMES Brady and Rodgers wins they were all favored

Anyways looks whom is not responding S019 he picked all the favorite this week and I know he doesn't like Los Angeles he was happy the Chargers lost to Chiefs

SO19 is gonna have a losing week for the first time this year

[100% pro-life no matter what]

The NFL OT rules really aren't geared towards shootouts like this.  Said before the coin toss that it might be a Super Bowl deciding coin flip.

[Pink Panther]

This is a certified classic. Imagine if we get KC-SF again, lol.

[Amenhotep Bakari-Sellers]

4/0 this week, Josh Allen never even got the ball

The Bills picked wrong on the coin flip it's not the OT rules when the coach picks heads or tails it was an unlucky bounce

[fluffypanther19]

[GeorgiaModerate]

DIVISIONAL ROUND RESULTS

A wild weekend led to a pretty poor collective showing.  Crane and OC were the only two with a perfect 4-0 this weekend.  Full results:

4-0: CraneHusband, olawakandi
3-1: Illiniwek, texasgurl
2-2: JGibson, nclib, S019
1-3: bagelman, Drew, ExtremeRepublican, fluffypanther19, Grumps, Terry, Politics Fan
0-4: Donerail, GeorgiaModerate, Politics Fan, Thunder98

Playoff totals (10 games):

8 nclib
7 CraneHusband, olawakandi, texasgurl, fluffypanther19
6 GeorgiaModerate, Grumps, JGibson, S019, SWE, Terry, Politics Fan
5 Donerail, Politics Fan, Thunder98
4 Drew, ExtremeRepublican, Illiniwek
3 Lechasseur
1 bagelman

Overall, Politics Fan's lead has shrunk to a single game two games over fluffypanther and S019, with nclib just two three behind. It's a wide open race! Year to date (282 games, regular players only):

181 182 Politics Fan
180 fluffypanther19, S019
179 nclib
174 Terry
172 Donerail

168 Grumps, Thunder98
165 texasgurl
164 SWE
162 Illiniwek, olawakandi

Well I did pick against the Titans (who imo were always a pretty weak team), also I went 2-2 which isn't bad.

[OSR stands with Israel]

Honestly the NFL has the worst OT rules out of any American sports league . They should switch to college OT rules and just move the starting line to midfield

I changed my pick to the chiefs on Friday night.

[bagelman]

Every game that I care about went against me:

1. Bengals beat Titans despite allowing a whole bunch of sacks. They will lose to the Chiefs in the AFCCG. If I had confidence in them I'd be rooting for them, but it's hard to have confidence in the Bengal's O-line.
2. 49ers beat Packers. 49ers will be underdogs against LA Rams. I can only hope they win again. Even then just more victory for rich people in the bay area.
3. Chiefs beat Bills due to a damned coin flip. Bills are a long suffering franchise I have a huge amount of respect for and they lost due to a coin flip against a team that already won the super bowl (I don't like repeats) and lost against Tom Brady in the next one. The Chiefs are a good team and I enjoyed watching their super bowl win, but I wanted the Bills to win that game so bad.

Seems that whenever I pick a team to root for in anything and actually get emotionally invested, they lose. My first superbowl was Philadelphia vs. New England, and not the more recent one. The one time my home metro of Cleveland won a championship in anything, I had not watched the game at all and I just got to watch the parade on TV wishing I was there. It was also a mere exception to a long line of constant defeat against a very wealthy enviable metro. I can't remember the last time a major sports game actually moved me to cheering and celebration.

My picks for championship games are that KC beats Cincy and LA beats SF. My pick for the super bowl if that comes to pass is LA. I don't want to be right at all.

[JGibson]

All four Divisional Round games were decided in the last second of regulation or in OT (3 by last-second game-winning field goals in regulation and 1 OT game-winning TD).

[H.E. VOLODYMYR ZELENKSYY]

I haven’t been this emotionally devastated by the Bills since I was a literal child.

The Bills lost to Chiefs last yr were you emotional last

Lol I won my Fantasy League with the Chiefs why should we be that surprised that the Chiefs are in the verge with Hill and Kelce and Mahomes of another title

Jay Feeley says that Gay and Butler of Chiefs FG Kickers have the biggest legs in the League

OK, I've updated the results.  You now have a two-game lead overall. 

Everyone: if you change your mind on picks, please post a NEW reply to that effect instead of just editing the OP.  Otherwise it's very easy for me to miss your update (as happened in this case).

[Amenhotep Bakari-Sellers]

I am so low in regular season because I picked against the Packers and look what happened they chocked

This a great article on how everyone doubts Stafford they post those early games to Packers, Cards and Titans they were never blown out because no Von Miller, and Von Miller can sack Patrick Mahomes he knows him very well as a Broncos that's why Rams are emerging as Favs for Sunday

[Grumpier Than Uncle Joe]

Bengals
49ers

[Amenhotep Bakari-Sellers]

Chiefs and KELCE AND TYRICE HILL
RAMS AND STAFFORD AND VON MILLER


Bengals have zero chance against Chiefs you heard what Kelce said bring it on with the Bengals he's not afraid of Joe Burrow still a rookie QB in his second yr

[Amenhotep Bakari-Sellers]

There is also a note that the announcers made they say that Butkler and Matt Gay have the strongest FG Legs in the League they never miss and also Pat MAHOMES never win blowouts his margins are 6 pts or less, except against Denver Broncos without Von Milker

The Superbowl will be against Rams or Niners v Chiefs and Brady blew out Chiefs last yr that won't happen but the Superbowl is gonna look very much like the Chargers v Chiefs game that was so close, but this time the Refs are gonna be on Cali side instead of Chiefs

We should just go straight to SUPERBOWL Rams v Chiefs

It was a pass interference not called on Chiefs that cost Herbert a TD, but the Rams have Von Miller from Bronco's
