Can’t wait for Mac to hit the weight room this off-season so he can throw 60 yard lasers too.

Pretty Interesting that it took
Buffalo should be going downfield consistently. KC’s secondary blows.
Their game has been so weird. Against a great offensive team to put the handcuffs on Allen except in the two minute offense or down two scores has been strange. They are a dynamic team that has been playing in mud.

Any chance we could talk Mahomes or Hill into getting on skates with the puck and their head down against the Ovechkin or Wilson line?

My son posits:

A “slugfest” is where you score a lot back and forth and is a close game.

Whereas:

A “rock fight” is where you DON’T score a lot back and forth and is a close game.

I said “all these games have been slugfests” and he corrected me.

I think, in the NFL, “slugfest” works for both

Who’s right?

Yeah, the Patriots aren't as good as either of these teams. LOL.

Lots of work to do this offseason, Bill.
The AFC is going to be tough for a while with Mahomes, Allen and even Burrow. It may be similar to what many teams felt with Brady, Manning and Big Ben in the same conference for the better part of a decade.

Kid.

Edit to add, I think there's a kind of futility suggested in "rock fight" that you don't get with "slugfest."

I'd call a lot of scoring back and forth a shoot out.

I'd call a 9-6 game a rock fight.

But that's just me.

It's crazy that a silly little penalty like "guy ran out of bounds" is equal to "personal foul, tried to blow up someone's knee" when talking about offsets.

Why does KC get to make that choice? They had the "worse" penalty (the personal foul). Why can't Buffalo be the team to make the choice? CFB?
