@Jett129 your write up was definitely more exciting than the Tyson/Paul fight!

I’ll take the Eagles to beat the Panthers.

@Mizmazzle how many floors does your building have? Are we talking bungalow or skyscraper? @Bailey needs to know what he's getting into

[Mizmazzle]

@Tago-Mago haha. It has a lot of floors. Unfortunately many of them are underground and we’ve been trying to climb out of the basement for about a decade.

[Mizmazzle]

@Jett129 one day my friend. One day.

The bar wasn't all that high to be honest. Love the write-ups, as a very casual follower of the NFL your pool and the excellent commentary actually make me follow the results more closely

That's kind of the idea behind the pool. Watching last nights game and knowing that the outcome,regardless of which way it went,would have an effect on the Pool,made it that much more interesting for me. Having said that both of these guys are playing really well and are employing different strategies to get through every round. I've been looking forward,every week to see who they pick. I also try and guess who they might pick,and I'm never right.

Chiefs over Chargers

[Jett129]

@Mizmazzle WOW…Let me take my jaw off the floor.That’s some pick. You know I’ll be rooting for you.

[Mizmazzle]

@Jett129 I know!! Haha. Or do I want the Chargers to win?? Haha. Nope! I def want the chargers to lose!!

If the Chargers drop a couple games that puts us in a far more manageable first round playoff game. Maybe against the Texans.

[Jett129]

@Mizmazzle My worst case scenario is that The Chiefs fall to the number 2 seed,and The Broncos are the 7 seed,and they play the Chiefs in the Wild Card round.

[Mizmazzle]

@Jett129 yeah. That’s a scenario I’ve thought about too. I’d be pretty excited at that match up. Hell, at this point I’m just so excited to be in the playoff conversation at all.

[Jett129]

@Mizmazzle A lot of people are talking about Bo Nix as the rookie of the year.

I accidentally learned about the documentary that Netflix is doing on Aaron Rodgers and can’t unsee this pic so I though I’d force you guys to see it too.

[Mizmazzle]

@SKT Is this where his infamous, "Relax" statement came from??

[SKT]

@Mizmazzle no idea but judging from the pic it could be

[Mizmazzle]

@SKT There was a press conference a few years ago when he was still with the Packers. The season was spiraling for them and the people were demanding answers...his rebuttal to their concerns was a simple and arrogant-Rodgers-esque, "Relax."

[SKT]

@Mizmazzle Ahh…I remember that. Yeah he’s “relaxed” himself into retirement

[mclaincausey]

Aaron Rodgers is insufferable. His lack of accountability is unacceptable in the role and his skipping of training camp to do an ayahuasca retreat or whatever the hell he was doing is looking really bad now.

Uses to respect him, now I’m hoping for maximum humiliation (benching, then release).

[Mizmazzle]

He's a douche

[SKT]

One of my Mizzou buddies sent me this pic and it made me laugh. This game was a few weeks ago and I was there…fantastic ending won by a defensive scoop and score.

[Jett129]

I totally concur with all that's been said,about Rodgers,and even though I'd given up on The Jets long ago,I eventually, thought,they might actually pull this off. I had a few Jet fan friends,who were extremely negative on Rodgers coming to the Jets,as was I,but I eventually,fell for it hook line and proverbial sinker. I feel like the person who's been kidnapped,but keeps getting in the van.
