Some quick NFL thoughts

[DerekJohnson]

I didn't watch any of the games this weekend, but was shocked to see the Lions lose. You have to feel bad for them. At the risk of inciting anger on here, I will say the Lions are kind of like the Mariners. I thought they would make some postseason noise this year, but nope.
Also saw the Ravens lost. All the Lamar Jackson hype and yet another quick exit. His 41 TDs/ 4 INT this season is remarkable so much of the hype is deserved. But still, yikes.

Thanks Taft!
I watched all 4 games from start to finish. Surprisingly good, entertaining games.

Detroit beat themselves. The turnovers were truly horrific. My neighbor is from Michigan and a huge, long suffering Lions fan. Fuck him though because he's also a "Michigan man."
Lamar had a couple turnovers but the dropped 2 point conversion to tie it at the end was brutal. Ravens were the better team yesterday, especially the second half, and somehow managed to lose.
Also, the NFL continues to do everything it can for KC to win another Super Bowl.

It did give me a small sense of satisfaction for Michigan Man Sainristil to have 2 INTs in that game. At least all the smug Wolverine fans who are Lions fans had to accept that, though ofc I would still have rather had a natty.

The Lambs and the Ravens did all the little things to lose. Lamar did do some repair to his justified bad in the playoffs rap but fell 2 points short
I think the Redskin's magical season ends in Philly depending on Hurt's health. Bills should beat KC but so should everyone and yet the Chief's just win. They live in the heads of the opponents about the refs but they also make the plays when they have to, to win. The Texans controlled the game and lost rather easily
Chiefs v Eagles is my SB pick

That would be a rematch of the only super bowl I skipped since before I can remember my football watching era beginning. I would be fine skipping it again.

Detroit was hit more with impact injuries especially on their defense compared to any team in the NFL. I thought it was a miracle they got a far as they did honestly. They lost Hutchinson early in the season and he probably would’ve won defensive player of the year. He had like 7.5 sacks through 3 or 4 games.
Next year, assuming they stay healthy I believe they will waltz to the NFC Championship game. Oops, forgot they took a big hit losing their OC and DC but Campbell is impressive and they return a ton of talent. They will definitely be back, Jared G is probably their weak link and he’s ok.
