Playoffs Thread: wildcard round

[Bolt-O]

Burfict could have just gone home in his uni and avoided the locker room...

[Bolt-O]

Exactly.

But there were a lot of people that wanted the Chargers to draft him. As high as the 2nd round

Maybe some, I don't think it was a lot.

It was a lot. Some wanted Burfict to get drafted early. Many more wanted to draft him late.

Okay, dudes. I hadn't seen a playoff game for a few years until tonight. Was that game an aberration, or are they all rigged like that?

[Bolt-O]

I'm not sure why that is an issue. He had a reputation for being a thug, but some think that can be coached away, and Mike Brown bit on that, without burning a draft pick. He might have been drafted if not for the weed hit, and his poor performance in the combine. He looked like a steal in his rookie year. Does calling people out on the board mean anything to anyone? He's not a Charger.

Only to tortured fan bases that haven't won a playoff game in 25 years. Only way to avoid that is to win by a landslide like the Chefs did.

I wanted to take him before the first round! Like in the 1965 draft!

I think the whole thing was rigged. Not just the calls. Why was Rothlisberger in on the last drive but not in on the previous drive? It looked like everybody knew the Steelers would get an extra drive at the end.

And then the referee calls and the announcers agreeing with every call. The ass catch was clearly not a catch but the announcers carried on like it was a no-brainer that it was a catch. Since when does zero feet down after a player gets control count as a catch?

And the personal foul penalties. They didn't call them both ways.

What was up with that assistant coach? Huh?

[Bolt-O]

Agree with the PFs, and Porter being on the field... shouldn't have been, like Munchack pulling the guys hair as well. I don't know about Roethlisberger, maybe he was too drugged up to even feel his shoulder and couldn't go in, and it started to feel real enough after getting the fumble.

The catch was clean. He had already two feet on the ground, and the ball didn't move out of control when he went to the ground... unlike that rolling catch by Inman during the Raider game.

Huh?

Watch the clip. Caught the ball, had two feet touch, and in going to the ground, he had control of the ball... didn't move.
