What game you looking forward to the most this weekend?

dep026 : 1/4/2019 9:07 am
Mine is simple. The old vs. the new. Chargers at Baltimore.

1. Can Rivers make a run and finally claim a SB?
2. Is Gordon healthy to take a pounding against Baltimore's defense?
3. How will Lamar do? First playoff game. SD has a pretty good defense.


You never know how many chances you get. Rivers has a really good team this year, but unfortunately they got stuck in a WC game and have to be on the road most likely for for every game. This may be Rivers' last chance at claiming the top prize.

I also think the Colts-Texans can be a really really good game. The other two games are kind of meh to me. They should be good games, but go seahawks and bears!!!
It could be Rivers' last chance but that team is the best team in

football in terms of balance. They can do everything well. They just have to stay out of their own way with the turnovers.
I meant to add that there is no reason why that team

the colts-Texans game has that feel of a usual throwaway AFC Wild Card game - think Bengals-Texans, Chiefs-Titans something along those lines.

I'll probably be most interested in the Bears-Eagles game and then looking forward to both the Chargers-Ravens and Cowboys-Seahawks.
USA vs Russia

today at 4pm, World Hockey Juniors.

This will be a global battle we haven't seen since Rocky vs Drago or Adonis vs Drago's son.

for football I am looking at Texans Colts as being a great game.

the other two meetings the road team won, both close 3-pt games, the first one in OT.

They easily could. But football can be crazy with injuries, bad luck, etc.... I think I meant to say is that SD has the team to do it. And thats not a guarantee on a year by year basis.
Bears Eagles...

Both AFC games are going to be a ton of fun to watch. Contrasting styles, potentially the next big thing at QB. Defenses that make plays.

that's they way it's being treated, but I think Colts-Texans will be the best game of the weekend.

Oh, absolutely. I am just saying that the team has a lot of really good young talent in Melvin Gordon, Ekeler, Hunter Henry who I think is back for this game, Mike Williams, Bosa, James, etc. So, while Rivers is older he is still playing at a high level at least when he isn't forcing stupid throws and has a really nice supporting cast around him. They are definitely a team to watch out for like Baltimore. It sucks that one of these teams will not be moving on. These two teams can beat anybody in the AFC and probably the NFC. Not saying they will but rather they matchup well with most teams eapecially the Chargers who can do what Baltimore does and more. Bamtimore just does what they do better than LA in terms of defense and running the ball. But the Chargers have that other element in terms of their passing game that Baltimore doesn't have. And LA is no slouch with their D and running game either.
Colts - Texans

With Luck and Watson should be able to overcome the usual throw away game.
I just hope

First big test of the season, facing a top ten Noles team that has given us a lot of problems over the years.

The NFL sucks. None of its games that don't involve the Giants are worth watching.

But apparently Hilton reinjured himself on Sunday night. Not sure Colts can win if he can't be effective - he's been a Texans killer for years. Texans also get Coutee back.

Go Bears .... but I'm worried Trubisky will shit the bed.

Bears/Rams will play in divisional round if Bears beat Philly. There’s no scenario that has Bears /Rams matchup in NFC Championship game.
When the Giants make the playoffs, I watch all the games  
baadbill : 1/4/2019 11:21 am : link
but when they are out of the running, not only do I have no interest in watching, I don't even know the standings and who made the playoffs. I'll watch the SB simply because my wife and I have a tradition but not because I'll be interested in the outcome.
Ultimately it'll be the Patriots  
fanofthejets : 1/4/2019 11:23 am : link
I would love to see Rivers or the high flying Chiefs in the Superbowl. Been a long time coming for both

But I still can't see anybody unseating New England. And the refs will have their marching orders in any Foxboro games to call 12-14 on the visitor and 0 on New England like we saw last year. Very tough to win in that building in the playoffs, even against a fading Brady

Lamar Jackson isn't going into that building and winning a game. At least an AFC title game would be in KC if they win their divisional round

I agree with: Chargers, Colts, Bears, and Seahawks all winning their respected games this weekend... Thinking about parlaying that in LV. $50 to win $559, pretty decent odds.

The only game I'm not super confident on is the Ravens v. Chargers.

Talk about an amazing 180 turn from start of season (1-5)

They get by texans, it'll be interesting as each game goes the momentum they feed upon

They should be an interesting watch
Chargers - Ravens is by far the main event  
Bobby Humphrey's Earpad : 1/4/2019 6:57 pm : link
Physical game, lots of young talent all over the field. Lamar Jackson and Derwin James. Good times.
