Championship game thoughts

[Merlin]

I know a lot of people don't much like Rodgers, but imo he's the best qb ever to play the game and would have won multiple Super Bowls already were it not for McCarthy. He deserves another chance and should get it. I'm good with Buffalo too. Just not Brady again.

I think the problem with ranking QBs is that there's so much deviation in the teams around them each year. Sometimes you get a group that aligns with your QB's strengths (Packers this year are a great example). Other times things might not align (Rams and their protections working against Goff is another). But in the end it's always going to be subjective as fuck not to mention people never agree on what they prioritize when ranking said QBs. I mean you should always do that first before any "greatest ever" conversation.

So my take on Rodgers is that his asshole personality has had an effect on his ability to win playoff games. And it's why he would never be the greatest ever not even close. In my book at least.

The best QB to ever play this game IMO is Elway. Just my opinion based on his ability to single handedly pull unworthy teams deep into the playoffs during his prime. He was really something man. If he had been drafted by the 9ers the guy would probably have 7 or 8 rings.

Did Colin cowherd really say the nfl should postpone the afc championship game if mahommes isn't ready?

What a numb nut.

Definitely a fan of a Bills/Packers Super Bowl. Go Bills!

Tommy the sore loser has so much shit already. Tompa needs to fucking lose. Lose with no chance of winning in the end. The last thing I want is for him to have the distinction of QBing the first team to host a Super Bowl in their stadium. Fucking just give me this, football gods. I'm not asking for much!

 

[RamsOfCastamere]

I want the Bills to lose just because I don't this one Bills fan co-worker to say the Bills did want we couldn't do. Is that selfish? I guess so.

Also, I Rodgers to win just to solidify that he's better than Brees, so Saints fans can be upset.

You see what motivates me.

I hate Tom Brady, I root against him every game. I guess I’m in the minority on Rogers, I think he’s a great quarterback and for some reason, I’ve always respected the Packers since Lombardy, I never had a hatred for them like I have for the Cowboys, 49ers and Patriots.

It's definitely who you hate the least, Super Bowl. Packers vs Bills and I definitely want the Bills to gut stomp the Rodger-ettes.

 

[ProGen]

Want Bills v Packers

Fully expecting Chiefs v Bucs

 

[Zodi]

A Mahomes vs Rodgers superbowl would be very entertaining.

I dont care who wins as long as it's not Brady. His football career is exhausting to observe from the position of always being the opposition.

 

[CGI_Ram]

A Mahomes vs Rodgers superbowl would be very entertaining.

While I prefer Bills vs Packers...

I believe Chiefs vs Packers would be almost a guaranteed good game.

 

[Angry Ram]

Definitely a fan of a Bills/Packers Super Bowl. Go Bills!

Yeah, I wouldn't mind Chiefs/Packers either.

I honestly wouldn't care about the Bucs winning it. But Tom Brady. And even worse, I hate the thought of Antonio Brown getting a Super Bowl title after all his douchebaggery. The same year that good guy Phillip Rivers retries.

Life isn't fair, man.

 

[snackdaddy]

Packers have always been a team I root for if it doesn't affect the Rams. I will definitely root for them. I don't like Brady or Arians. They will be the team I least want to see win it. Mahomes and Reid are likeable. But they already won it. Buffalo is a team I could get behind. Josh Allen came from a little town half on hour from me. So he's a local boy for me. I suppose of all teams the Bills might be the team I'm pull for.

 

[John R]

I’d like a rematch of the first AFL-NFL championship game.

 

[yrba1]

My heart says Packers/Bills Super Bowl, but my brain says Packers/Chiefs.

The entertainment industry likes milking reboots and sequels anyways.

My brain says my heart is a moron.

Elway is like the polar opposite of Eli Manning.
If they both retire at 35, Eli is a no brainer HOF QB and Elway is remembered as the QB who couldn’t win the big one.
Instead, Eli sucks and Elway has 2 SB rings.
#7 was good, a lot of fun to watch but not in the realm of best ever.

Depends on who you ask. I don't judge on championships alone. Elway was just unbelievable and even if he had never won it all I'd look at him similarly to how I look at Marino both being no doubter HoF guys. Eli is just a guy throwing the ball. Elway was like Allen but more accurate and with less size.

I don't know that Eli is some shoe-in for the HoF either btw. The guy had some well timed hot streaks but he's not someone I think about as a dominant QB.

It would SUCK having to listen and read the media slurping tommy for two weeks leading up to the game.
