The Lions join the Pack as being the only one and done 15 win teams. Go NFC North.

Doesn't look like anybody had the Commanders upset. Kudos to DoUrant for coming close, sorta, 4 point win for the Lions. We all had the Lions winning, and commonly by two or more IDs.

What a perfect storm for Washington. Three pics of Goff, one for six, flawless execution by Daniels, and a Detroit D that was worse than most expected. Gotta wonder if the Lions were looking ahead a bit. I mean we always say this when there's an uneven matchup on paper and the fave loses. This game wasn't ever close.

For a rookie, the NFL doesn't seem to be too big for Daniels. He plays with a lot of poise. Who sez it takes an NFL QB 3-5 years to reach peak? Don't tell that to Daniels, or Burrows, or Jackson, or Allen. You listening Love? (OK, that's me being pissed off.)

We play the Commanders next season.

And the 98 Vikings were 2 and done.

I forgot about them but they did get to to NFC Championship game. Wasn't that the Gary Anderson game?

 

[Voyageur]

If anyone wonders how much of a difference ownership makes in a professional sports organization, how about them Commanders? They were a joke until they got people in place who changed the culture and made them a destination place for players. The were 8-8 in 2022, 4-13 in 2023, and 12-5 in 2024. All because of the culture change, and better leadership. Players want to play there, not escape.

Dan Snyder was a cancer on that organization, and it shows.

I sure wouldn't want to be playing the Rams today.

 

[weeds]

Then again, a fumble?

 

[weeds]

...and another... I called down the wrath of the thing. Grrrr

 

[DoURant]

Barkley with 2 long TD's today, looking like the Rams season is coming to a conclusion.

 

[weeds]

Two TDs and a little defense?

 

[weeds]

Burks is suddenly a player?

Yes. They won the first round game. Had the next one all but won and some dirty birds messed it up.

 

[gopkrs]

Burks is suddenly a player?

That was a good play he made.

Our contest tightened up in this weekend's Divisional Round. Some that did well in the wildcard week floundered. There were no bingos, but Voyageur did manage a 3-1, plus a points match for the week high 125 points. Six players missed out on getting their picks in this week. They are listed as NP (No Picks). As you can see below the top three are close together.
