Eagles defense is a lot better than CARs so who knows

Ummm, no. Carolina has a top 5 pass defense. Philly's D is straight trash.

I believe tampa and the eagles played each other in tampa earlier this year, near the beginning, but they're both different teams now. I don't trust baker but I think they have a good shot at beating the eagles.

im not "scared" in regards to playing anyone, I just want the easiest route to the super bowl. Every play off game is massive and intense, so any help with that along the way is huge. I think we would annihilate the Bucs and pack. Rams will be the toughest of the three because I think they have the best qb/coach of the three and know us very well. I don't like playing divisional opponents in the playoffs.maybe I'm scarred from the Seahawks in 2013. Lol

I just heard that the Dolphins-Chiefs game will be the first playoff game shown exclusively on a subscription channel (Peacock). Guys this sucks. It's an experiment and a precursor for the money grubbing NFL to go full pay for view for playoff games. Worse will be when they spread it out between 3 or 4 different services.

It's $5.99, I don't see this as anything more serious than moving Monday Night Football exclusively to ESPN (ABC has carried it due to writers strike but before it was exclusively ESPN). I'll pay less than the price of a pint to watch it clearly or I'll pirate the game 🏴‍☠️

If you do not include the week 18 game played by backups. The rams are 1-7 against playoff teams this season with a -52 point differential in those games.

SF- 23-30
PHI- 14-23
PIT- 17-24
DAL- 20-43
GB- 3-20
CLE- 36-19
BAL- 31-37

Look, the Eagles are fuh-ucked. Hurts finger looks like it hit by a high speed train and they lost AJ. Their souls have been crushed and the 49ers are the reason for their steep decline into total failure. Toast

Not worried about the Rams, I mean..no. Our offense will ride high all over that s**t. Defense will be rested and come out hungry and wanting vengeance over that b******t we saw a couple years ago.

Packers..hot streak but that is gunna end come Dallas..unless they pull off some miracle---not gunna happen. If it does..we have the miracle that is Brock Purdy, check mate

Bucs..Bosa is gunna have Baker for lunch again, we are gunna mow them down. Total domination.

Not worried about any of these teams.

I appreciate the confidence but I worry about every opponent. Any given Sunday is a real thing

Most cable services already have ESPN so that's not a big deal. Requiring Peacock, Amazon, Fubo. YouTube, or any of the other streaming services to watch the playoffs would be terrible. I know that you can subscribe to the service and then cancel but it's still a hassle. Setting it up, coming up with another password and logging in are all just more crap that we don't need. Then you need to remember to cancel or you get billed for another month. The subscription services bank on people being too lazy to cancel. That's how people end up with larger bills than they had when they had cable.

My point is it's just more Fing money for the sport that already rakes in more than all the other ones. They ruined boxing with all their pay-per-view events that are overpriced. Now they might do the same to the NFL. I hope this Peacock experiment falls flat. I read that YouTube is expected to lose close to $1 billion this year because they paid so much for the Sunday Ticket rights.

There are some of us who do not have cable and would have to pay for espn+ in order to watch Monday night games. So everyone is really in the same situation essentially.

The only teams that concern me are Bills, Ravens..and a bit of the Cowboys if there is some kind of fluke weird thing that goes on and yeah, the underestimated Lions who have been kind of quiet killers this year. Shaky at times but should be taken seriously. So, four teams that make me uncomfortable, the rest.. lol

I actually have peacock and it's not a bad service. I bought the black Friday deal where it was $20 for a year. Lol

I think its just time for you old heads to finally cut cable. $50 T-mobile home internet plus a handful of subscriptions is like half the price of cable. Cable sucks anyway. 700 channels of nothing to watch.

Likely just in the Miami and KC markets.

Yes. Only in the Chiefs and Dolphin markets which leaves most of the country out.
