Thanks for checking in, PATRICK.

The man knows the NFL.

I'll make his selections the favorite to take down the cash.

Thanks, John! Miss the community and definitely miss you. Have a safe and healthy new year, my friend!

Plenty of love for the Buffalo Bills or is it distrust for the Kansas City Chiefs?

Yes, love and hate, KC @ home -131 ML at Pinnacle speaks volumes.

 

[Dell Dude]

I should have checked Kinky's shit picks before I copied and pasted. I don't like LAR. Stafford will choke. I also messed up with KC. I like Buffalo. LAR should have been the fade.

 

[ComptrBob]

A blast from the past, 1997 (Jan 98) NFC divisional round had GB -14 vs TB and SF -14 vs MIN (GB pushed and SF covered). The days of double-digit dogs in this round seem gone.

 

[Dell Dude]

No choice but to Wayne Allyn root for Kinky. I have Arizona and will have Buffalo.

BISHQQQ was a perfect 6-for-6 this past weekend.

However, he forced me to a double-take with these selections.

Strategy or a mistake, BISHQQQ?

The man selected the 49ers to advance in the wild-card round, but the Cowboys to appear in the divisional round.

 

[howid]

no mention of a booby prize, i'm sure to be in the running.

You were the only one of 43 contestants who selected the Steelers to defeat the Chiefs.

Pittsburgh led 7-0 early in the second quarter before the real game began.

Interestingly, the Chiefs were the only winners during the wild-card round that did NOT lead after the first quarter.

The Bengals, Bills, 49ers, Bucs and Rams all lead after the game's first 15 minutes in their 2022 playoff debuts.

 

[Wade]

Steelers had no chance in hell of winning. Just look at their coach. nuff sed.

Ah I see...ok. 13 years of coaching for Tomlin, career winning record, never a losing season, 241 career wins and a SB. Yeah let's solely blame it on him.

Bill Cowher built the team that's why Tomlin won the SB in his first year. He hasn't won anything since I wonder why? Now that Roethlisberger is gone you'll see how bad Tomlin really is. Take the Steelers under for next season.

 

[wiskers]

Salty. Big Ben the last few years has been the equivalent of the Capable Kenny Jay or Scrapiron Gadaski in the old days of AWA. Just occupying a position
How Tomlin got me my over 8- wins this year with that shit offense is amazing. My hats off to him

 

[John Kelly]

George "Scrap Iron" Gadaski, too funny.

As I understand it, he made the AWA roster because he was capable of setting up and taking down the ring, including transportation to and from the venue.

Gadaski also serves as the answer to a difficult wrestling trivia question: Name Ric Flair's opponent in his professional debut.

The result of the Flair-Gadaski match?

A 10-minute draw.
