Classy Championship Game (NFC and AFC) Game Thread

Kind of a chicken call, but if they got stopped there that would have been a pretty somber halftime locker room.
Yep, doesn’t matter whether the point at which the throw reaches the LOS is OOB or inbounds.
Why not? You can't see Brady scoring 40 on these guys? He did it with the Pats (43 points in 2018) with far worse weapons than he has now. I mean, it will take a hell of an effort, but you can't see:
- Mahomes' turf toe hobbling him a little
- Bucs' defense getting a key turnover (they got 4 against Brees and the Saints, and 2 against Rodgers and the Packers, both on the road)
- Brady going OFF
If that happens, absolutely Tampa can beat KC. Now again, it will take their best to pull it off, but would you really say it's not possible for Brady?
Bucs being home has to help them. I wonder how much. Not because of fans but because of not traveling.
Romo informs us that you can’t keep playing soft coverage but you have to because of Hill.
Huh?
Huh?
He and Jones will likely be fine given two weeks off. The Bucs will be fully loaded. Whether it will be enough...we shall see. But they'll have all their weapons at their disposal (or should anyway). Do the Chiefs have enough quality DBs to cover Evans, Godwin, Brown, and Gronk at the same time? I doubt it. Their last 5 games they've put up 31, 47, 44, 31, 30, and 31 points, against a few very good defenses (Was was #4 in points, #2 in yards, NO was #5 in points, #4 in yards, and GB was #13 in points, #9 in yards). KC is ranked #10 in points allowed and #16 in yards allowed. No reason why Tampa's offense shouldn't have a terrific day.
Really impressed by the KC defense. With the defense stepping up I fear this team is unbeatable. Ugh.
By disagreeing with himself in the same sentence? I suppose he unironically illustrated the dilemma of defending the Chiefs.
The Bills don’t have the secondary depth to deal with KC.
Should be a 5-second challenge review, but we can't give the coaches more challenges because it will take too long to play the game.
He gives teams chances, though. Led the league in dropped picks this year.
Kelce and Hill complement each other's skillsets so well it's almost unfair. You literally can't take both out of the game.
Yah, I have seen a lot of them...he's the anti Brady. Where most of Brady's always seemed to be a tipped pass, or some freak occurrence.
Wylie looked bad but they cut away quick. Maybe they cut away quick just to jam in more commercials.
Hill in motion, and the closer he got to the left sideline the farther off the LOS the CB backed up.
This Super Bowl will be a real game for legacies.
Winning Championships is hard and dynasties are tough with salary cap. But Mahomes is really good and while four more will be very hard it is still in the range of contemplation. But if Brady is plus six in two weeks, I can’t see him ever being caught unless the nature of the league changes dramatically.

The fact that we can even begin to talk about Mahomes in these terms is incredible though.
