NFL 2024 | Christmas Day Double Header

Josh Allen is just not going down today.
 
Brady bang on as you would expect. Ridiculous decision to go for the sneak there. You have to either take shots or kick the field goal

Commanders probably need one more win (?) to get into the playoffs. Who are they most likely to play do we think?

If they only get 1 more win they won't be in the playoffs. They are just 1 win ahead of the Rams. And if they do get in they'll probably be up against the Eagles or Lions.

Yeah just noticed 4 games left not 3, need 2/3 wins then. So what your saying is 1 and out in the play offs then!
 
I'd need to rewatch the 4th quarter to see if they could've done it differently but giving the ball to Mahomes with only a 2-point lead and a few minutes left is madness and suicide, you have a 7-year timeframe as proof for that.

McVay understood that better and he could've had a TD-lead instead of a FG-lead on the Bills. Campbell as well against the Packers on Thursday.

On the third down conversion to Kelce the Chargers should have blitzed with every defender. The most probable outcome (in theory) would be either a KC touchdown or a sack with a KC FG. In both of these scenarios the Chargers then have 2 minutes left to win it. The one thing they had to avoid was a KC first down to allow the walk off FG. Having said all of that, situational football is drilled into the Chiefs players and they should know they have to go down and not score a TD..the call being "church mode".
 
Jonathon Brooks re-tore his ACL - sad man
 
Has Homer Simpsons got a TD yet?

Where is Moe playing?

Is Mr Burns injured yet?

These are the real questions FFS?

Can't get the Simpsons cast in the UK :(
 
Leon Lett part two. This time a punt though. Don’t touch the efn ball!
Season is over. No more misery
 
Burrow to Chase is literally insane this season. Projected for a 122-1,725-20 season.

Makes me think of Cooper Kupp's 2021 season with the slight difference that they won the SB that year and the Bengals likely won't even make the playoffs.
 
Since I can't escape it, I want your opinion on this. Knowing the following, should the Vikings extend Darnold long term?

- Next year the Vikings will have 76m in cap space but Harrison Smith, Gilmore, Aaron Jones, Patrick Jones, Shaq Griffin and Bynum are all free agents. I only mentioned "big" name, there are actually a bunch of other important contributors, they also don't have a backup QB in the books.

Now if you give +30m to Darnold then there is no way to bring more than one big player on defense since you will have around 30m for 30 players. And the Vikings don't have much picks next year.

Would you gamble on Darnold with a severely weakened roster or do you go with McCarthy and maybe Daniel Jones with an even more complete roster than this year?

I would trust that we made the right decision in drafting McCarthy in the first round and save the 30m on Darnold, bringing in a cheaper vet.

That said I've only seen a handful of Vikings games so haven't taken in the full Darnold experience this year.

Is this now Darnold? Or is this the best it's going to get. Can the Vikings and 'this' Darnold even compete in the play offs? I have my doubts.
