:lmao Yes, he sure did.

[AlexJones]

When was the last time NE had a real challenger in the divisional round?

[Bynumite]

That's what happens when you quarterback while black.

[HarlemHeat37]

Patriots open at -5 for next week..

[monosylab1k]

When was the last time NE had a real challenger in the divisional round?

Baltimore Jan 2015, although that was more Pats choking for most of the game, not Ravens being a legit challenger.

[AlexJones]

Patriots open at -5 for next week..

I got +6 early line on BOL feelsgoodman

[Ghazi]

I'm all over Chargers +5 .

[Trainwreck2100]

garbage time hero coughs it up when chargers actually try

[Bynumite]

Lamar shitting over the spurtalk faggots :lmao

2 days into the playoffs, 3 black qb's eliminated and now you're forced to root for 2 half whites :lmao

[Clipper Nation]

garbage time hero coughs it up when chargers actually try
Zero rating and negative passing yards with 6 minutes left, :cry but, but, just look at all the garbage-time stats he put up against a prevent defense! :cry

This would have been an easy Ravens win with Flacco.

[AlexJones]

Black coaches are a much bigger issue than black QB's if we're being honest

NFL teams need to hire Jews and Asians.

[Trainwreck2100]

2 days into the playoffs, 3 black qb's eliminated and now you're forced to root for 2 half whites :lmao

Dak is getting smoked next week, so really it's one

[HarlemHeat37]

Going all-in with all my weekend winnings on the Bears..a mediocre QB like Foles can't continue getting as lucky as he's been..

Hopefully Khalil Mack shows up in a meaningful game for the first time in his career..

[Robz4000]

Going all-in with all my weekend winnings on the Bears..

RIP

[SpursforSix]

2 days into the playoffs, 3 black qb's eliminated and now you're forced to root for 2 half whites :lmao

Isn’t Wilson half white?

[HarlemHeat37]

Isn’t Wilson half white?

No

[Ghazi]

Patriots open at -5 for next week..

Should I take my shroomies today? I keep pussing out :(

[Spurtacular]

"We need to bury the fact that he can't throw the ball. In the 4th quarter he proved that."

:lol Whoever the black black power guy is on the CBS crew.

[Silver&Black]

:lmao SuperCum left the thread

[SpursforSix]

No

Just Googled that. That’s weird. Maybe I’m thinking of Jason Kidd.

[HarlemHeat37]

Should I take my shroomies today? I keep pussing out :(

What are your plans?

[HarlemHeat37]

Just Googled that. That’s weird. Maybe I’m thinking of Jason Kidd.

Don't worry about it, most white people make the same mistake with lighter-skinned niggas:lol

People think Steph Curry is half white, as well..

[Ghazi]

What are your plans?

Watch the Wild Card game and probably do nothing at home.

[SpursforSix]

Should I take my shroomies today? I keep pussing out :(

Either do or don’t. But quit bringing it up. No one cares anymore. And you’re just making it worse for yourself. If this is how you always overthink things, then maybe you shouldn’t. People gave you decent advice in the thread you made about it.

[Agilist]

Jackson getting EXPOSED :lmao


Rivers >>>


It's playoff time, why not bring back BDF for one last run like the Eagles are bringing back BDN?


(And before you ask, yes "BDF" was a big internet meme circa 2012)

When will you cats learn??

Deshaun Watson, Russell Wilson, Dak Prescott made up three of the four quarterbacks yesterday. The position is evolving!!

[AlexJones]

Phil Simms' analysis has actually gotten better after they took him off the booth

[SpursforSix]

Don't worry about it, most white people make the same mistake with lighter-skinned niggas:lol

People think Steph Curry is half white, as well..

I can empathize. People see me run and assume I’m half black. Well..at least back in the day.

[Silver&Black]

CN can you do me a huge favor? Put the Bucs as your skin...talk shit about them for the entire year...then remove the skin and stop rooting for them.

Thanks.

[SpursforSix]

I hate the Eagles but I’m kind of wanting to see Fohls keep winning.

[SpursforSix]

Hey fake Larry real Larry would never use the word "evolving" you dumbfuck

[Spurtacular]

That snap low; Foles shouldn't have bothered with the play action.

[SpursforSix]

Hey fake Larry real Larry would never use the word "evolving" you dumbfuck

Yeah...this is a terrible attempt at a fake Larry.

[Spurtacular]

Smart strategy by the Bears to play the good cold weather road team like the Eagles instead of the Vikings. :lol

[Spurtacular]

:lol What? The team who just go possession should be the one allowed to accept or decline.
:lol NFL

[Trainwreck2100]

Are you talking about the neutral zone infraction before the punt, it happened before the kick so its the kicking teams choice

[Spurtacular]

Are you talking about the neutral zone infraction before the punt, it happened before the kick so its the kicking teams choice

I didn't see the exact penalty. But that wouldn't be so bad I guess.

[Fabbs]

Fark come up with a new stat to designate "interception" from "perfectly thrown pass that receiver then lets himself get stripped"

[Spurtacular]

That shotgun play action only wasting time and screwing up spacing for the Eagles. If the RB had just ran out to the checkdown in space away from the LB, they would've been fine.

[Spurtacular]

Definitely Derp.

Rent free.

[Will Hunting]

:lol Michael Bennett
:lol stupid black panther

[Fabbs]

Bennet lets white phuck get under his skin. :pctoss

Stupid penalty could cost the Eagles 7 points.

[Beartrucci]

Bennet lets white phuck get under his skin. :pctoss

Stupid penalty could cost the Eagles 7 points.

Typical :lol reminds me of when Ried bodyslammed dude for no good reason

[Beartrucci]

Amazing that Tate held onto that and got extra yards too.

Ah Shit Foles Foles'd

[HarlemHeat37]

Bears could have just tanked last week and got Kirk Cousins today instead..

[TheCultOfPersonality]

I honesty have no idea what Foles was trying to do there.

[Ghazi]

Is there a sport where coaching is as important as the NFL?

[resistanze]

:lol Foles. That was bad.

[Beartrucci]

This is going to start becoming such an incredible and crazy story if Foles can make another playoff run. Hard not to root for it to happen.

[Robz4000]

:lol and the Bears give it right now

[Beartrucci]

Whoah what an INT if that stands!

Ah nvm one foot in

[TheCultOfPersonality]

That's an incomplete pass.

[SpursforSix]

The new thing of defenses running into the end zone to pose is gay

[SpursforSix]

Man can you imagine being an Eagles Fan?

Schitzophrenic team
Wentz Foles Wenz Foles

Foles Cinderella story
looks like a repeat
then turns in to a pumpkin with 2 ints

that first one wasn’t really on him. Second one was bad though

[Beartrucci]

Man can you imagine being an Eagles Fan?

Schitzophrenic team
Wentz Foles Wenz Foles

Foles Cinderella story

He's all over the place but he looks confident to me. They can easily take this.

[Will Hunting]

This wildcard round has been about as bad as playoff football gets.

[Will Hunting]

That brotha QB in Baltimore Almost pulled it off

would have been wurf it to hear the post-game presser and interviews of him
“Almost pulled it off” is a phrase you can use to describe a lot of black QB playoff performances.

[Will Hunting]

:lol cheapass Belichick not keeping Hicks on a 2/$10M deal
I fully expect him to be Jewish with Malcolm Brown this offseason so the run D falls apart next year.

[TheCultOfPersonality]

The new thing of defenses running into the end zone to pose is gay
I've never been bothered by it, but it seems like every team is doing it.

[SpursforSix]

This wildcard round has been about as bad as playoff football gets.

Not been very fun to watch. But kind of expected it for 3 if the games. I thought the Texans/Colts was going to be entertaining though. Cowboys win was good but if I wasn’t a fan, that would have been boring as well.

[Fabbs]

Another stupid phuck over aggressive play by Eagles D Lineman.

Lower your steroid dosage.

[SpursforSix]

I've never been bothered by it, but it seems like every team is doing it.

I can see it on a pick six I guess. Or maybe a game sealing play. Idk.

[Spurtacular]

This rule has troubled me all year; players don't recover balls after the whistle blows.

[SpursforSix]

Weird interpretation

[SpursforSix]

Eagles should have had the ball twice now

[Ghazi]

This wildcard round has been about as bad as playoff football gets.

bad QB play and like bad coaching too IMO; aside from Colts 1st half gameplan/execution against the Texans.

[Spurtacular]

Says the guy who has made multiple trolls about me :lmao

Dunno about that; but I'm sorry if I gave you the impression that you're important...

[HarlemHeat37]

Whose troll is Drew Carey?:lol so random..

[Will Hunting]

Dunno about that; but I'm sorry if I gave you the impression that you're important...
So Slob isn’t your troll?

[Beartrucci]

Deep down there's no way Wentz wants Foles to get it done again and go all the way right? :lol

[Will Hunting]

Deep down there's no way Wentz wants Foles to get it done again and go all the way right? :lol
Don’t think it matters, the Eagles cap situation is shitty this offseason and there really isn’t a way to keep Foles without sacrificing a bunch of other talent.

[Will Hunting]

Also A Slob's Slob (https://www.spurstalk.com/forums/member.php?u=52369), he’s got two trolls dedicated to me :lmao

His CNN (https://www.spurstalk.com/forums/member.php?u=52530) troll got shit on so badly that now he’s trying to pretend like he doesn’t have any trolls.
His General Virtue troll is currently getting shat on by ChumpDumper as well :lol

[Beartrucci]

Here comes Foles!!

[RD2191]

:lol @ anyone picking the bears. Overrated as hell.

[HarlemHeat37]

Damn, have to stop betting against the Eagles, they've killed me more than any team the past 2 years:lol that system might be the best in the NFC..

[Ghazi]

Trubisky ;)

[Darth_Pelican]

If Foles goes down and wins this game against this defense :wow

[SpursforSix]

Wasting 1st and 2nd down.

[Robz4000]

Big Dick Nick strikes again.

[SuperCam]

Aints want no part of this Philly team tbqh

[Clipper Nation]

The Seahawks, Panthers, and Cowboys should all be trying to get Foles this offseason, tbh. They need a real QB.

[SpursforSix]

Man that was a good pass

[SuperCam]

Dallas with 2 more home crowds to advance to SB :wow

[Darth_Pelican]

Aints want no part of this Philly team tbqh

The team they hung 48 points on vs. their D?

[SpursforSix]

Cowboys could have had him 3 years ago and Jones quickly dismissed it.

It was an obvious loss tbh. It's the fucking Bears.

[Pelicans78]

Cowgirls fans breathing a sigh of relief.

[DAF86]

Never kicked a football FG, but I have kicked countless Rugby penalties, which are usually harder. I really can't understand how professional kickers, that get paid for doing nothing but that, miss so much. It really isn't all that difficult, tbh.

[Ghazi]

Saints should be at least 9 point favorites IMO.

[Robz4000]

That was Houston imo.

It’s all mental/nerves in situations like that kick. His legs were probably shaking

[RD2191]

Cowgirls fans breathing a sigh of relief.

More like the Saints, we've already waxed that ass. Tbh

[Pelicans78]

He should have been cut during the season. You can’t carry a kicker who’s missed this many FGs in a season.

[spurraider21]

These fuckers are gonna do it again, aren’t they :lol

[Clipper Nation]

It's like free throws in clutch situations - mostly mental.

[Pelicans78]

More like the Saints, we've already waxed that ass. Tbh

13-10 isn’t a dominating performance especially at home. Would be much different on the road especially with the Saints healthy as they’ve been all season.

[SpursforSix]

Cowgirls fans breathing a sigh of relief.

Not gonna lie. Did not want to give Brees a second shot at home.

[TheCultOfPersonality]

:lmao bears. Most overrated team of the season. Fuck outta here.
The Ravens with Lamar Jackson at QB is #1 on my list

[Raven]

Going all-in with all my weekend winnings on the Bears..a mediocre QB like Foles can't continue getting as lucky as he's been..

Hopefully Khalil Mack shows up in a meaningful game for the first time in his career..
:bobo

[Mugen]

Nobody should ever bet against BDN, ever.

[AlexJones]

This Foles luckbox has to stop at some point. Saints make a great teaser next week if you can get them down to -2.5. Probably tease Saints down, Chargers up.

Lines have been super tight in the playoffs so far

[Pelicans78]

Saints the last team to beat Foles in the playoffs. They'll do it again. And I'll be there........

[Trainwreck2100]

Saints the last team to beat Foles in the playoffs. They'll do it again. And I'll be there........
Being so confident going against BDN will be your downfall

[Pelicans78]

I still don't get why the Bears put Parkey in that position. He should have been cut during the season.

[Beartrucci]

Now that Parkey did that especially with the dramatic way it happened, the D doesn't have to deal with any stories about how they let Foles own them on a final drive. They didn't get it done, but the whole game is on Parkey now...

4th and goal with that much to go? Get it done against a Nick Foles if you're that elite on D.

[Beartrucci]

Goal line stands are incredibly difficult even for the best defenses. Just getting it to 4th down was stellar, and it took an incredible throw to beat them.

I know...Just hate putting everything on a kicker in football. These situations tend to let everyone off the hook and dwell on a guy like Parkey no matter what happened.

[HarlemHeat37]

Khalil "no impact in real games" Mack

The Black JJ Watt:lol

The audacity to even mention these Kevin Loves in the same breath as Von Miller..I'd even take Melvin Ingram over them..


Nick Foles is the luckiest QB I've ever seen not named Eli Manning:lol

[SpursforSix]

I know...Just hate putting everything on a kicker in football. These situations tend to let everyone off the hook and dwell on a guy like Parkey no matter what happened.

Yeah. But that’s pretty much sports. If someone wins or loses on the last play of the game, that’s gonna get most of focus. Regardless of all the other players mistakes. Like the Bear that had that late hit penalty.

But I think it’s worse for a kicker because they really only have one thing to do.

[Clipper Nation]

Khalil "no impact in real games" Mack

The Black JJ Watt:lol
Mack's played what, one, two "real games" ever so far? He doesn't have Watt's choking legacy quite yet.

[Beartrucci]

But I think it’s worse for a kicker because they really only have one thing to do.

See but I think that almost makes that end of game assignment one of the most difficult in all of sports. It's the very thought that this is his only job that makes it so incredibly difficult. You're viewed as the personification of insignificance in sports until the end of the game when the entire weight of the organization's season is suddenly on your shoulders. The extremes NFL kickers go through emotionally must be intense.

I don’t disagree with you at all that it’s really disportioncate. The swing in his life from making and missing that kick is hard to imagine.

On another note, I read that he’s still owed $5,000,000 in guaranteed money.

[Millennial_Messiah]

https://heavy.com/sports/2019/01/cody-parkey-field-goal-tipped-video-bears-kicker/

Good find.


New video angles show Bears kicker Cody Parkey’s field goal was tipped by Eagles defender Treyvon Hester. The new evidence will not do anything to comfort Bears fans, but it does show that Parkey may have been right in his feeling that he nailed the kick.
“I feel terrible,” Parkey told NFL.com (http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap3000001008676/article/cody-parkey-on-missed-fg-thought-i-hit-a-good-ball). “There’s really no answer to it. I thought I hit a good ball…It’s one of the worst feelings in the world to let your team down. I feel terrible. Continue to put things into perspective, continue to just put my best foot forward and just sleep at night knowing that I did everything in my power this week to make that kick and for whatever reason it hit the crossbar and the upright.”
If the kick was indeed blocked, the blame would also partly fall on the offensive linemen who were blocking. The Athletic’s Bo Wulf posted (https://twitter.com/Bo_Wulf/status/1082087473465958400) a photo of Hester’s hand, who admitted to blocking the kick.

I guess the Patriots get to take revenge on the Chargers for stealing their playoff berth in the Matt Cassel year by winning their shitty division at 8-8 while Belichick got cheated out of the opportunity to prove that the Patriots' success was his and only his.

Melvin Ingram is abeast despite short arms I wanted him that draft soo bad.

[Darth_Pelican]

Just remembered that Matt Nagy decided to beat the Vikings in the last game of the season (even when the Rams had a comfortable lead and secured the 2 seed) which caused them to have to play the Eagles instead of an easy win vs. the Vikings in the Wild Card round.

I didn't think it was terrible for what it wanted to be..I watched it with the lights off and the full sound system in play, it did a good job of building suspense IMO..

It was ultimately empty with no substance, but I didn't really expect any different from a Netflix movie that was meant to generate social media buzz..

I can’t get over all the bullshit they pulled off while being blindfolded. Even the little things. Like how did they find a spool with thousands of feet of wire. And driving the car to the store, parking it, then loading it up and driving back again. Or how the hell did those birds survive in the grocery store. Or being dropped into the river.

I think what really bothers me is that everyone involved gets career bumps for this piece of shit.

I can’t get over all the bullshit they pulled off while being blindfolded. Even the little things. Like how did they find a spool with thousands of feet of wire. And driving the car to the store, parking it, then loading it up and driving back again. Or how the hell did those birds survive in the grocery store. Or being dropped into the river.

:lol yeah them being at the grocery store and then suddenly back at the house with no hiccups was hilarious

I didn’t even think about all of the other stuff you mentioned though. The fact there’s also a 5 year gap between them being in that house to them being in the woods doesn’t make sense either (ie how did they get from a suburban neighborhood to a remote cabin out in the woods while blindfolded).

Yeah...it’s a total mess. And back to the store trip. During the initial frenzy, cars were going all over the place...crashing, running into curbs, being abandoned. And they navigate all that with GPS and the car’s sensors. It’s just one unbelievable thing after another.

I think that made a huge difference. You can see the ball radically move left after being deflected. I think that it would've been fairly central like the one kicked after the timeout otherwise.

a) the first act, like a lot of these "collapse of civilization" horror movies, was the strong point. same with that shitty dawn of the dead movie from 2004 or whatever. the first 30 minutes were fantastic

b) the rest was pretty slow. as stated, the driving scene was incomprehensible. im all about suspension of disbelief for certain aspects of film, but that's not a get out of jail free card for any ridiculous stunt to be pulled off. can i buy that the weird things made people kill themselves? yes. thats the premise of the film, so i'll buy that. that doesnt mean that people can drive around like that. and its incredibly unlikely that the roads would be as clear as they were. cars should be all over the streets in all lanes. massive traffic jams, etc.

c) i think the worst scene was at the end in the woods. the boy tells the mom that daughter is scared of her. probably years of distrust. the mom was shitting on their hopes and dreams when "dad" was around. that kind of resentment doesn't instantly go away because mom makes a 15 second "impassioned" plea.

i didnt think the acting really stood out one way or the other. except bullock shouting to the daughter came off very badly. and that was supposed to be a huge scene. otherwise i didnt think anybody really torpedoed it or anything

I think the children surviving the boat flipping over and magically making it to shore without drowning while keeping their blindfolds on was even more incomprehensible than the driving scene.

The concept wasn’t bad but the movie was awful and way too predictable.

Basically someone at netflix saw the quiet place and was like let's make "The blind place"
