It's just normal for Barkley to burn us at this point. I'm not even mad.

Remind me again why Saquan isn’t mvp favourite?
He just trucks every team.
Dyami Brown reverting back to shitness.
Because they suck off QBs.Originally Posted by Foe
Also, none of the playoffs stuff matters for MVP.
Good hustle lads.
Shame they put this one on in the watchable slot.
There's some running back in Baltimore they keep handing awards to.
Henry is a monster too. Surprised he hasn’t grabbed it at some point.
It’s just a QB award really.
How many TDs and highlights would a RB need to do at this point? Barkley touches close to the all time rushing record, is probably the best player on the field for how many of the eagles games this season? Now smashing in TDs in playoffs.
Super Bowl MVP if they make it there though most likely so at least he’d get an award.
Tress Way throwing a DIME.
I meant the other running back in Baltimore.
Shame for Washington that holding was allowed on that play. Felt like a stop would have been big.
Ha, the one who can’t get his team over the hurdle when it matters.
Brown fully started that. Could be a big stand there.
Refs a bit shit on the drive there.
Missed a clear hold and then on the TD play both should have been flagged not just Lattimore.
Washington shooting themselves in the feet.
Well this has been entertaining.
You’d think after the lions imploded with turnovers the redskins would realise that they may want to play a clean game here.
Well this is an implosion of epic proportions.
Daniels is going to keep them in it. We need to grind some clock and keep the scoreboard ticking. These injuries really adding up though.
Thats about perfect.
Ekeler
This offense is just letting Daniels down.
He looks ridiculously talented, especially for a rookie.
Turnovers would get you. The eagles stumbling a bit this half, but the defence keeping them on top.
Hand it to Saquan.
Luvu the newest WFT mong.
What a second down.
It's no surprise really. We had a wobble mid-season so we knew something like this could be coming. Still, a great season overall. Getting to the Championship game in a rebuilding year (GM, HC, OC, QB all in their first year) is fantastic.
On the other hand, KC again.
This is where Barkley gets injured early in the game. I'm a Philly fan for one night.
It's probably blown up way more because it's such a thing now, but some of those calls were outrageous.
There was a very blatant Buffalo first down but somehow these refs called it short and didn't overturn.
Fly Eagles Fly then.
Fucking Chiefs and the refs.
Josh Allen must absolutely fucking hate mahomes.
At least Lamar hasn’t had that stumble so many times. Losing to the same team so many times must be brutal. Four out five years. Jesus.
Quite unlike the Bills to lose a massive play off game 4 straight times.
A shame it isn't them in the 'bowl as I think the result is near inevitable now.
Interesting thing to note is that 2 years ago the Chiefs and Eagles offensed their way to the big game. Since then both teams seem to have shifted towards a defense first kind of attitude.
I’d rather be the guy who fights against the generational quarterback than be the guy who racks up seasonal mvps and then blows it in the playoffs.
It’s sad they lost but I think Bills Mafia and Philly fans in New Orleans might have done more damage to the city than Katrina.
So I knew the Browns were in the shit because of the Watson contract. However, finding out that trading their best player in Myles Garrett takes them from 30 million over the cap to 46 million over the cap is truly impressive stuff. To even do the trade requires them to release other starters to offset the cap.
No wonder these Americans don't want relegation when you can run a team that makes 600 million a year this badly and the worst thing that can happen to you is you get to sign a top 3 prospect every year for the next 5 years.
Good to see Josh Allen get his flowers. Guy has easily been the best QB in the league this year.
Id have loved Barkley to have won it, but him getting OPOY is probably fair.
Finally the Sterling Sharpe crime is rectified.
Predictions for tonight then gents?
Would be nice to see Saquon run wild & get a ring, but it’s hard to pick against KC.
Can't see anything other than Kansas City. First time in years I haven't booked the Monday off for it so it'll no doubt be a classic.
Hoping for Philly, but that's not how it will have been scripted.
A bit of a weird situation. Two years ago both teams made it based on offense. This time the defences are the stars of the show.
I don't think Saquon gets anywhere near as loose as he did against WFT. I believe he only needs about 40 rushing yards to have the best complete season of any RB ever. I think the key is going to be what can Hurts do if/when they shut Saquon down. In the bowl 2 years ago he did everything he possibly could have in that game to win it, but the defense just couldnt get that stop. These days he has a bit of a tendency to hold onto the ball too long. Our kicker has also been on the struggle bus this year. He even missed what would have been a vital XP in the NFC game.
I think the difference will be that KC are used to winning those close games. Nearly all of their wins this year have been 1 score. Most of their squad has also at least 2 or 3 rings already. Whereas we only have the odd few remaining from 2018.
I can see something like 28-21 in favour of the Swifties and lots of Drake being called a pedo.
Been listening to a few preview podcasts while I’ve been out & about this afternoon & there were some themes that kept popping up.
- Slot battle could be important when the Eagles have the ball. Do they put Smith and/or Brown in there more? Does KC put McDuffie in there more? He’s blitzed from the slot a lot the last two times they’ve played so if he’s still on the outside do they send him from there or is Chamarri Conner blitzing instead?
- Could be a Dallas Goedert game
- On the other side of the ball, is Vic going to change the system at all? (probably not)
- Eagles should be targeting Mike Caliendo at LG. Does Jalen Carter move or is this a big Milton Williams game?
- KC should look at using tempo to trap Jordan Davis on the field & make the DBs have to communicate more
General consensus seems to be the Chiefs will nick it because they’re inevitable, but it will probably come down to turnovers & whether Philly can hit a few big plays.
It does feel like a 27-24 / 23-20 kinda game but I think I’m going to be optimistic & say the Eagles will get it done.

I really hope the Chiefs don't win but it seems inevitable at this point.
This will be the first Super Bowl that I’ve not watched live since the year before Helmet Catch.
Test driving a car tomorrow morning then going on holiday. Fuck doing all that on no sleep just to see the Trump-Swift soap opera.
Aaron Rodgers dumped by New York.
When did the Beeb drop this?
Haven't ITV got it now, and haven't they had the highlights for a while? Sure I saw J Bell doing a Bourbon Street walk through during the Liverpool game.
Yeah, it's ITV who have the rights.
There aren't words to describe how bad the singing of their anthem always is. Andy Reid looks like he's had a lobotomy.
Why was Twitter chimping out about them not singing the national anthem, when they have - in fact - sung the national anthem?
What are those melts boycotting exactly?
‘Fletch’ is fucking everywhere
Either they got confused by that other stupid song that trio sung first, or it was that a black guy was singing the anthem.
