NFL 2015 Wild Card |OT| - A Fraud Goes Wild

I love how people say the second flag shouldn't have been thrown when pacman comes out of fucking nowhere to shove the guy- especially when the Steelers player is clearly coming to collect the coach. That's just stupid no matter how you look at it.

Yea, I have no sympathy for Jones. There was nothing serious going on and he jumped in trying to start shit. You can't lose your cool there and take it into your own hands.

Thanks man, you too.

Hopefully tomorrow I'm not posting gifs of Doug Baldwin flopping or Adrian Pederson taking a switch to officials.

The Bengals loss and more specifically how they lost is poetic really. They were going to win. All they had to do was keep their head in the game after the last PIT fumble but they couldn't even do that. As a result they gave a damaged Steelers offense 30 extra yards, more than making up for an injured Ben's short throws. They handed the team an effortless last minute field goal. I cannot think of a better example as to how playing the game so disgracefully means that you don't deserve to win.

If Ben can't come back to play the Broncos, we are probably doomed. That said, I'm glad the Bengals and many of their awful fans will not have the satisfaction of advancing, being shut out after yet another humiliating playoff defeat, this time being more of a self-inflicted wound than anything else. The overall behavior and tone set by the team and fans alike confirms that they don't deserve a damn thing. The coaches should be ashamed of themselves.

Your antics didn't pay off. Go watch some highlights from 1990 or something.

JJ told Houston media groin injury isn't new, but got worse yesterday >>> RT @taniaganguli: JJ Watt says he will have surgery on Tuesday.

Been listed on the injury report for the last 7 weeks with the groin injury.

This one is for Dega:

#Texans quarterback Tom Savage says he is going into the offseason intending to win the starting job. "They can draft 12 quarterbacks."

Still shaking my head after last night's game. It was closer to a WWE match than an NFL game. While it was incredibly dramatic and entertaining, I can't say I ever want to watch a game with that tone ever again.
This.

It was embarrassing for both teams, quite frankly. I'm glad we got the W but I'd rather win clean than with all the bullshit (Shazier hit, Gay and his stupid dance, Porter on the field, etc.).

Steelers/Ravens playoff games always felt like good, tough football. This looked like animals in the zoo getting loose.

With their loss last night, the Cincinnati Bengals extended their playoff win drought to 25 years, the longest in the NFL.

The Detroit Lions have the 2nd longest drought (24 years), and the Cleveland Browns have the 3rd longest (21 years).

What the fuck

1) he's from Texas
2) he's a republican
3) he's a white old man
4) there are tons of other people just like him

They cause me to lose faith in our country given how much say they have in our government. They're killing our planet and won't admit it because they're getting paid out by oil companies

Yeah, I don't think he was taking joy in the injury (and it should have been a penalty).

Burfict has a history of hitting to inflict injury. There is plenty of evidence of that.

As for Porter, from the angle in this video where they slow it down it sure seems like he's moving with the entourage escorting off Brown when he gets separated from the Steelers group by a Bengal player and then sucked into a conversation before being shoved.

Painful and agonizing game. I don't like where it leaves us for Denver and its bad for the league.

You're right. Go to 4:30 in that video and you can see Porter was walking back with Brown until Burfict decided to try and put hands on him after the assassination attempt and gets shoved by the trainer. Porter gets slowed down a bit by that altercation being followed by a gang of Cincy defenders and then another Bengal body checks him from behind.

That's where we see this gif start.

Brian Hoyer must be the greatest practice player on the planet to keep getting starts. It's such an eyesore to watch his inaccurate throws, and now he has added awful decision making to his repertoire.

Jones is clearly an idiot for jumping in there and running into a ref just as the altercation appears to be breaking up. He deserved the flag.

But--

What the ever living fuck is Joey Porter doing on the field? He's only there to instigate. He's not helping with Brown, clearly.

He and Jones should have both been flagged. Would have either forced the Steelers to run another play to advance the ball a bit or try a 50 yarder.

Either way, thank Tebow we grabbed Boswell. Dude has been clutch.

Fuck Josh Scobee
and Vontaze Burfict

Both teams were playing like dumbass thugs last night but Burfect has a long ass history. He is the king of thugs.

Makes sense he lives in a classless city like Cincinnati. Where injuries get applause and players on carts get garbage thrown on them!
