Is this whole Romo has been to the second round twice thing some new way of framing the Romo experience?
Yeah it's pretty awesome weasel speak, makes it sound like he's won 2 playoff games. I should have known a fellow lifetime Chiefs fan would recognize this bullshit for what it was.

Loved the stat scrolling on the Red Zone yesterday. "Lowest ever combined win percentage for a Monday Night game week 7 or later(.091)".

Didn't we already establish when talking about Manning that you need a complete team to win games? Romo's problem is that he asked to do to much at times. He pulled wins out of his butt to many times last season. It was going to bite them in the ass eventually, and it did. Defense was bush league at best with their best players out or hobbled. This is the first time he had good protection and good options since 2007 which is also the last time the team was considered really good.

Hopefully the Giants lose tonight and make it the start of a good football week.

Cutler out 4 weeks minimum and Briggs out at least 6 weeks. Stick a fork in the Bears, they're done.

Wasn't that guy a Rams fan (lol) when the season started? Get used to him and all the other bandwagon pussies to jump ship when the Chiefs start playing good teams.

I also love the notion that getting a bye week is somehow a bad thing and it's better to go 9-7 and have to win a wild card game than go 13-3 and not have to worry about it.

Ogden wouldn't be out getting teammates hit over the head with Dom Perignon bottles by strippers at 4 AM so it would probably be a better idea. Hoping we got a 6th out of this, honestly anything is a fucking win in return for that washed up tub of dogshit. Enjoy seeing him stand around watching linebackers do their sack dances.
It was a total wash for us Vikings fans watching the Ravens win. On one side we were all really happy for Matty B. On the other, this waste of space won a ring.

A lot of serious starting QB injuries this year. Bradford, Cutler, Hoyer, Manuel, Sanchez (lol), Locker. Am I missing any? That list is substantial - and many of those guys are out for the season.

Hoyer? Pretty sure he was not a starting QB even though Weeden is god awful, fitting as god hates Cleveland.

Ravens could use Birk back again, our new center is getting his lunch money taken every snap. I didn't really like his political stances but he was a heck of a lineman.

Only because Weeden was injured did he get that chance. Not that it matters, just makes for an interesting discussion.

Statistically speaking that bye week is a curse anymore. I don't envy anyone having to go to Arrowhead in January but would anyone be surprised to see a home loss at Denver or GB or Pittsburgh in the playoffs at this point? Granted GB is really more just cold than loud compared to the others but still, homefield is overrated.

That's awesome. Glad a GIF was made of that tackle. Best kicker tackle I've ever seen.

Over the last 10 years a team with a first round bye won the superbowl half the time. 100% of the time at least 1 team in the Superbowl had a first round bye. Figuring there's 12 teams in the playoffs and only 1/3 get a bye, I'd say that's pretty good.

It's no guarantee by any means, but I don't see how you can say it's "cursed".
