Skyline is the official chili sponsor of the Bengals, Reds, and FCC so Gold Star doesn't stand a chance.

Gold Star is exactly like Skyline taste wise, it is just less watery.

Do you only ever do the ways or have you had their coneys too?

I’ve had the coneys plenty of times but my go too was 5 way.

No one has ever heard of skyline not living in Ohio. Florida is the only other state that has them.

Well, KY and Indiana too but it's a tri-state thing.

Damn, up 11 and get the ball out of the half.

Eagles vs. Commanders for the NFC East and NFC crown coming up.

Oh all the fans who are old school or believe in old school say snow games are great.

Well there's a long history of cold weather teams getting HFA in the playoffs and then choking big in the SB when weather is not a factor.

Weather adds randomness into the game, so one or two big plays because players slip or the wind alters kicks or passes come down to luck.

The players aren't able to perform at their best. They can't plant their foot to cut on the top of routes or on backpedals to break on the ball.

The 2nd best qb in the league (behind Tanner McKee) has the lead at halftime.

Manning was considered soft for a long time when he couldn’t win in New England (I think eventually he had a winning record in the playoffs against Brady).

Teams like Dolphins last year and the Rams this year were definitely affected from playing in KC/Philly. It’s an advantage if you’re used to it.

Where is Lamar?

Ravens made that look easy. Less passing, more running.

Credit to both defenses, but I don't think either QB is doing much to undo the narratives about them. After a big 1st half, Allen has done nothing. Lamar hasn't done much at all throughout and has 2 bad turnovers. They're featuring Henry in the running game for this comeback.

This ravens bills game is reminiscent of the toe game against KC

JujitsuFlip · Post #531 » by **JujitsuFlip** » Mon Jan 20, 2025 2:01 am

Andrews dancing and forgot to take the ball with him.

GeorgeSears · Post #532 » by **GeorgeSears** » Mon Jan 20, 2025 2:02 am

3 turnovers. Unacceptable.

Who just fumbled?

I feel like Eagles are clearly better than anyone except KC at this point. And that's mainly because of the refs. In a straight up game, Eagles are better.

Only problem is the Eagles have the worst QB by far.

Hurts makes huge plays though. He just doesn’t do it thru the whole game.

Meh, that's not everything. He doesn't make too many dumb mistakes and takes care of the ball (other than the safety today). And he doesn't shrink in the big moments, which we've seen from Lamar and even Allen.

And the Eagles have the best defense, O-line, D-line, receiving corp, and RB. That + a low risk game manager at QB is plenty.

They don't have any glaring weaknesses like the other teams do.
