Week 18 Around the NFL Game thread (Jan 7th and Jan 8th, 2023

[NFLfan]

It is the last weekend of football in the regular season of the NFL. The games started today. The Chiefs are playing at Las Vegas Raiders. Chiefs are up 24 to 6 in the third quarter, 6:55 left. The Chiefs are about to get the ball back after the Raiders kicked their second field goal.

 

Titans play the Jags later tonight. 

 

Are you watching the games today and tomorrow? What are your observations and thoughts? Enjoy!

[NFLfan]

I'm rooting against the Raiders. I'm a huge fan of Derek Carr and not a fan of McDaniels. 

 

Go Chiefs!

It will be interesting to see who wins AFC South tonight 

[NFLfan]

Can someone explain the reasoning behind using a neutral site to play games (the one that the announcers keep talking about)? It is unfair to the cities where these teams play to use a neutral site. Playoff games bring business to the cities where the games are played. Cities like Buffalo and Cincinnati could use that. 

[NFLfan]

Wow. Chad Henne is still in the NFL? I remember him in college. That seemed like ages ago. 

[PRnum1]

Rooting for the jags

 

[Nesjan3]

Id like to see the Jags win the South they deserve it. Packers going to the playoffs would be a remarkable story, everyone in the world had them written off. The Dolphins should get the last wildcard in the AFC, they are pretty good when Tua is healthy. Its looking like Steelers or Pats will get it though. Sucks for Dolphins.

I think because any of the Bengals, Chiefs and Bills could have had home field advantage throughout depending upon the results of this weekend and the Monday night game. Of course Monday night didn't happen so if the AFCC game features two of those three teams it will be neutral. Which I personally don't understand because they basically handed the Chiefs the first round bye without any thought, yet they are so concerned about home field. Seems odd. The Bengals definitely got the worst of it.

Did you guys see this play by the chiefs.

I think if chiefs had lost today then there could of been a chance at a bengals chiefs neutral game but because they won bengals had 4 losses so there was not a chance.

Seems jags inexperience in big games is hurting them a little bit tonight.

As long as they keep stuffing Henry they have a good chance

I think titans will eventually wear down second half but we will see.

[Restinpeacesweetchloe]

Jags defense isn’t looking very good either.

[Nesjan3]

Titans are so terrible, please Jags dont let them in

[Chrisaaron1023]

Hate both these teams.. find myself cheering for Dobbs though for some reason 

[DEColtsLover36]

Jags offense better step it up! They struggled all half to get first downs

Haha I feel you… I thought I would despise the fact that this game even exists with our division on the line lol… but I have accepted that we are out of the race (probably for a while) and am actually interested to see “who wants it more” in this game. 

Dobbs seems to be working hard not to let the pressure get to him. I can understand you wanting to see him do well. I am cheering for the Jags though because… Titans… just no. Never.  Lol

Some will say it’s arrogant, some will say they’re having fun like a college team but it’s definitely a bunch of guys having fun to me.  
 

They almost scored a TD too if not for a Ricky tack holding call. However they scored the very next play again.

 

Mahomes definitely clinched MVP.

[DEColtsLover36]

Trevor throwing like he has giants on offense

How did he miss that wide open in the end zone.

[RollerColt]

Jags are choking this chance away.  

[DEColtsLover36]

Jags offense can’t finish what they start with their drives. They need a dynamic play to really get the momentum going for them.

[Restinpeacesweetchloe]

I really though jags would win this pretty easy but looks like titans did the right thing giving players a game off last week. It’s a shame Titans might be going to playoffs. They will play chargers or ravens from what I understand.

Good for them. They can believe they’re a Super Bowl contender and get dismantled by the Chiefs or Bills. Or even the Bengals yet again. 
 

This is a pathetic showing by Jacksonville. Why are they having Lawrence run weird routes out of the pocket? Just scheme Kirk open and sling it for dang sake…

About time! Interception by Dobbs.

[Restinpeacesweetchloe]

Well Dobbs migh give jags a chance by turning it over.

[Restinpeacesweetchloe]

Jags can’t score touchdowns lol.

Both of these teams are going 1 and done.. lol

[DEColtsLover36]

Jags defense keeping them in the game… offense needs to SCORE A TOUCHDOWN 

[Restinpeacesweetchloe]

This game showing how bad the AFCS is.

I can't decide which is worse, the AFC South or the constant "bump in your erection" commercials.

Our upcoming game against the Texans will show the same 

[Nesjan3]

Cmon Jags the Titans are poverty knock them out

[RollerColt]

Neither team deserves to be in the playoffs. 

[Nesjan3]

Just now, RollerColt said:

Agreed neither do the Bucs. We also have a chance to see the the Lions, Seahawks, Packers, Steelers or Pats. Such is the world we live in with the new playoff teams added and the division winners automatically being awarded playoffs no matter how bad they suck.

[RollerColt]

Lmao pick six.

No, fumble six? 

[Restinpeacesweetchloe]

Wow what a change of events here. Jags at least will compete better then titans.

[DEColtsLover36]

Jags better use this to keep the momentum throughout the rest of the quarter 

[Nesjan3]

I just hate the Titans the most out of our division rivals, its so nice to see the Titans epic collapse this season. Also I like to see the best teams in the playoffs. Which doesn't always happen. I really think the Jags are easily the best team in our division.

[#12.]

Titans have 4 downs every series.
