The Patriots are ready to face the Bills and should face them head-on

I've never been more ready for anything in my life... why wait? You know, the bills are the better team they're favored all that shit. They're at home, but this is what you want. Why run? Why not just face it head on.

Opinion Football Medium

The Patriots were absolutely demolished by the Bills 47-17 in the Wild Card round, making this confidence look misplaced.

The Raiders were smart to win rather than tie because they have a better chance against the Bengals than the Chiefs

On just a level for the Raiders, it was smart to go for the win. Once they're in that spot at the end of the game... if you let the Chargers in, you have to go play the Chiefs, right? Where now you get to go play the Bengals. I mean, the Bengals are better than the Raiders, but they have a lot better of a chance against the Bengals than they have against the Chiefs who has had their number and kick their ass this year.

Opinion Football Medium

The Raiders did play the Bengals and lost 26-19 in a close game, while the Chiefs blew out the Steelers 42-21 in the same round, supporting the idea that the Bengals were a more manageable opponent.

This was the best Week 18 in the history of the NFL

I'm just going to say that was the best Week 18 in the history of the NFL. It came right down to the last game of the last week. Congratulations, Roger Goodell. You've done it again.

Opinion Football Mild

This was only the first year of the 17-game schedule (Week 18), so technically it was the best by default, though it was genuinely highly dramatic.

Brandon Staley's decision to go for it on 4th and 1 from his own 18-yard line was absolutely insane

Brandon Staley living and dying by going forward on fourth down... the Raiders were up three and Brandon Staley went forward on fourth and one on his own 20... It was 17-14. They went for it on fourth and one at their own 18 with 8:57 left in the third quarter. That's how crazy he is guys. Fucking crazy.

Opinion Football Medium

The decision was widely criticized as the Raiders scored shortly after, and the Chargers ultimately lost the game and missed the playoffs.
