Re: 2019 NFL Playoffs Thread - Will Defense or Offense Win Championships
chalk covers the spread and the teams with the most potent offenses prevailed. also the teams that had the most physicality to their games. i was really surprised by the whooping the rams offensive line and other blockers on dallas. just manhandled the cowpokes. chiefs with a home game to get to the SB. certainly a good time to be a KC fan.
if it's chalk again today i'll be surprised again. but that very well could be the case.

there's physicality on the other side of the ball too. blocking is very important. the purple people eaters were destroyed in their super bowls by teams who were simply stronger than they were with their offensive lines. both teams that won yesterday imposed their will on two very good defenses.Why Not Us wrote: ↑Sun Jan 13, 2019 11:17 am Top 4 defenses in the playoffs are out:

I thought the Vikings didn't make the playoffs. What are they doing playing the Eagles right now?

Re: 2019 NFL Playoffs Thread - Will Defense or Offense Win Championships
yep. for this year for sure. how important is a physical offensive line though? great QB's will look mediocre-very ordinary without protection. maybe the vikings will get this figured out. sooner as opposed to later.Why Not Us wrote: ↑Sun Jan 13, 2019 6:45 pm Looks like this debate is over, the top 4 offenses in the NFL advance to the Championship games.

starting to feel a little bit of the buzz that the fans of the four teams are feeling before tomorrow's games. i'm don't particularly like any of the teams-but i'm hoping for a rams-chiefs SB. they should be better games than last week. i hope so anyways.

Is there any way the NFL doesn't fix it to have a KC vs Rams rematch? How could they not?

I wouldn't say a total flip, the teams last year all had more balance on defense and offense, 2 of the top 3 offenses were in the super bowl:PurpleHaze wrote: ↑Sun Jan 20, 2019 6:04 amLast year was the exact opposite!

Terrible play by the rams safety. Went for the pick rather than the break-up. May have cost them a trip to the super bowl.
