NFL Playoff Discussion

Who is everyone cheering for? There’s some good NU ties sprinkled throughout those teams. I think for this wild-card round I say… Go, Bengals!

It's hard not to root for Zac Taylor, Joe Burrow, Ja'Marr Chase, and the Bengals.

That's a fun team to watch, they overachieved big time this season, and seem set for the future.

First, it's so strange that COVID is no longer impacting players or staff members of NFL teams. I don't think I've heard a positive case leading into week 18 or leading into this weekend's games.

As far as the games, I'm going with:
Bengals
Patriots
Bucs
Cowboys
Chiefs
Rams

Only one upset. Interesting!

I'm pretty tempted to pick the Bills to win the Super Bowl, and you've got 'em bumped off this weekend.

Go Bengals? heck, I don't know. Chiefs? I can't seem to pick a team to pull for. As a lifelong Vikes fan....I've been essentially pummeled into apathy this time of year....

Ja’Marr Chase is one of the most fun players to watch right now, for sure.

Meh. I like Josh Allen but I feel like they were better last year. I agree with them being bumped out this weekend.

What about the Titans to go all the way? Can’t forget about them…

It’s not college football, but since that’s over, I guess I’ll take it. Looking forward to some competitive games.

The Raiders do not belong in the playoffs, IMO.

 

[HuskerWeatherman]

No rookie QB has won a playoff game since 2010.

Mac Jones is the lone rookie QB.

Predicting the NFL playoff is such a crapshoot. There's really not much difference between these teams.

Moving to football forum. It's the off season.

Rooting for Buffalo. Harrison Phillips fan. Going to write an article about his off field community service soon.

While the Eagles are my favorite team, I'm a bit of a Bills fan -- and an even bigger fan of Josh Allen.

Josh Allen and the Bills definitely look like Super Bowl contenders.

Josh Allen: 21-25 passing for 308 yards, 5 TDS. Add in another 66 yards rushing on 6 carries. With a below zero wind chill! He's the best young QB in the NFL.

Also, I just quoted myself TWICE!! A new Huskermax record.

"Personally, if I coached at any other organization in football, I probably wouldn't be here right now in the third year," Taylor said. "That's the truth."

Taylor said he gave a game ball to team president Mike Brown, who stuck with Taylor after two seasons filled with losses. The third-year coach said he and the coaching staff owe so much to Brown for the patience he exhibited despite 26 losses in their first two seasons.

Taylor: Playoff win a credit to Bengals' faith in me

After Saturday's playoff win, Cincinnati Bengals coach Zac Taylor said no other team would have stuck with him following two seasons that produced just six wins.
