OT 2026 NFL playoffs

Will Josh ever get to Super Bowl? Great opportunity although not Buffalo’s best team.

Great call by Buffalo on the third down hook and ladder.

Great job by Payton to go for the DPIs and pressure the secondary. Refs let them play on the first one but the next two were blatant. The DB was burned bad on the last one.
 
I still think Brandin Cooks caught that ball. Did they even review it?

And now Bo Nix has a broken ankle. Patriots are going to walk to the Super Bowl without ever really having played anyone.

I just saw that about Nix. That’s too bad but Patriots shouldn’t look past Houston’s defense. Should be a good game.

They did not and absolutely should have reviewed it.
 
By rule it actually was an interception because Cooks never completed the catch he didn’t survive the ground, but McDermott has no balls to argue that call, you should be throwing a red flag and be causing a scene to get it reviewed.
 
Realy sucks that Nix broke his ankle. I was really hoping for a Maye v Nix 'chip game.

Go Pats tomorrow

No coach’s challenges in overtime. Only booth review.
 
And let’s talk about Robert Saleh. Everyone glazed him and said “it was the Jets that made him fail” and then his defense gets torched by Sam Darnold in the playoffs. I hate Aaron Glenn but I don’t miss Saleh.

No need for red flag they are supposed to review all turnovers
 
It's a very weird rule but I guess it was an interception, you wanna win a playoff game you need to put in your hands and not the hands of the officials. Hold onto that ball and possess it fully and leave no doubt, David Tyree had to do it against Rodney Harrison. The loss is on Josh Allen he made too many critical mistakes, 3 turnovers especially on the road you don't deserve to win.

Niners defense sucked all year. Not sure anybody should be surprised by that game. Seattle is pretty clearly the best team in the NFL.

Disagree. You can see his shoulder on the ground and the DB doesn’t have the ball at all. It was a catch.

Well the officials didn't think so, so hold onto the damn ball and leave no doubt and there's no worry, don't ever put it in the hands of the officials. It actually was the right call by the rule book.

Niners defense was never the same without Bosa and Warner. Christian Haynes got into the game for Seattle btw.
 


It's close but you can see when Cooks shoulder blade is down he doesn't have the ball it's an interception.
 
You can call it a lot of things but it was definitely not a reception.

I can't tell. To me it looks like Cooks has the ball when his is on his back and McMillian rips it out as they roll over. I suppose Cook didn't hold onto it long enough to be a reception so it has to be an interception.

The pass interference calls and non-calls were very strange though. The refs were letting them get away with a lot and then suddenly called a PI when the defender barely touched the receiver. So many of these calls could go either way.

Here's the thing about the Cooks-McMillan play if the officials blew the play dead when Cooks hit the ground then everyone is arguing that the officials got involved, on a bang bang play the officials let the players decide the outcome of the play, wrong call or not we can agree the officials didn't get involved there and let the players decide.

Agreed about the pass interference calls not consistent at all of how they were calling the game, it also was a soft roughing the passer call on Bosa. You know what the Bills screwed themselves enough with turnovers, when you rely on Josh Allen pulling a Houdini act every week this the end result your gonna get. Put the game in your hands and not the officials hands.

Bills were routinely down double digits in the 2nd half all season it felt like it's just not sustainable.

Nonsense. It’s a catch. Look at the freeze frames. He has the ball and is down by contact.

Nope not a catch, he never completed the catch going to the ground it states in the rule book that you must complete the catch when going to the ground he did not. The freeze frames aren't enough evidence, video literally shows the replay.
 
Does anyone find it a bit fishy that Christian Gonzalez is cleared through concussion protocols, yet Nico Collins is out.

It's all scripted for the Pats, Nico Collins standing there not playing and their TE walks off the field while Christian Gonzalez plays and it looks like Stroud is in on it.

I am rooting for Houston but stroud is doing everything possible to lose this game. Not a fan of the “happy ending” Patriot owner.
