If anyone remembers the game before the freezer bowl was the chargers Vs Miami. That game was till this day the greatest divisional round game ever. Now here we are yet again playing the winner of the current greatest game in KC. Going against a red hot team coming off an incredible game that had to take a toll on the team. The temp was the major factor rightfully so but I’m sure the previous game played its part in the Chargers demise. We have a chance to go against the 49ers in the SB again. With their innovative coach much like Walsh was. It doesn’t get better than this who-Dey nation.
Early in the season I was laughed at by colleagues for saying this team was different. This team has that something we have been waiting so long for. We have a dynasty in the making. But we must take advantage of the youth on this team while we have it. If we can get this Oline fixed this off season this team can be great even unstoppable. This season is exactly what this franchise needed. We finally invested in top FA’s who are all playing at a high level. Maybe MB won’t be so hesitant in the future to go after top FA’s. And for the most part this team has stayed healthy while the teams in our div have been devastated by injury's. We have nailed it with the draft the past couple years and one of the biggest draft picks to make an instant impact on this team just happens to be the smallest guy on the team. YES we finally have a legit kicker. We have our franchise QB. A stud kicker. Finally have LBers that can make plays in coverage. We have a solid D line, can’t wait to see what Ossai can do. And As far as our offensive weapons, I would take them over any in the NFL. One of the key factors to this seasons success has been health.
I thought we were a year or two early for a SB run but with the luck we have had in staying healthy, why not now. We really need our D to make some plays against KC. Sure it will hurt if we lose but I’m already so proud of this team and excited about the future that it won’t hurt for long.
I just want to thank those of you who keep this board going. I’ve been on this board since it started. I hope everyone has a great weekend and hopefully come Sunday evening we will be watching to see who we play in the SB. Who-Dey!!!!!!!!!!!
Love it TKUHL. Nice hearing from you as you rarely post now a days. Are you laughing at your colleagues now? They deserve it.
What is awesome, something that you kind of brought up here is that the FO finally forking out the dough for top FA's actually
worked.
I was afraid if it didn't work and many stayed injured like Waynes it would deter them from doing the same in FA again.
It worked FO, keep it up and protect Burrow while adding decent run blockers and this team can be the best in the NFL without
weakness barring injuries. We have been very blessed with our lack of injuries but we did lose a lot of guys too, in Ossai, Reiff,
D'Ante Smith, Waynes, ADG, Ogunjobi, Hubert etc.
Also Trey Hopkins being banged up most of the year coming off that ACL injury has been rough. It hasn't been all rainbows
which makes me believe we finally have a good coaching staff that can coach the next man up. This is huge. Props to Taylor
and the rest of the coaches for this and keeping this team disciplined.
BTW, keep the false starts at a minimum tomorrow please. People have been saying Prince didn't give up a pressure against
the Titans which I would argue with but he did have 2 false starts at least. Cannot have this tomorrow in an even louder stadium.
