2016-2017 Conference Championship round

Okay time to bench the starters

nfc south is first division to have all 4 teams reach the superbowl since the realignment. p crazy

i guess nfc west just misses out, with the rams only in the last superbowl before

Atlanta was a good job to take a couple years back as they had a good starting QB and really under Mike Smith they won quite a few games. It seemed that they had a bunch of injuries that kind of derailed Smith's last couple seasons as coach more than they had little talent.

boy that was a massacre, lol

whoah @ this weather

wow look at he movement on that kick. conditions are p messy. reiss said gostkowski was just hitting from about 53 in warmups

pats lineman casually dropped to the deck by the rusher. looks like it was andrews again :(

hogan loves 2 bobble

hogan loves 2 stand in the endzone uncovered for 5 seconds

keep on those trick plays and brady will get one right

let's go evil pats

lol is charlie weiss calling this game?

nantz and simms on ben's dick for completing 12 6-yard passes in a row

james has caught that same pass 4 times

looked like dpi

wow, finally decided to defend that route

blah another pat superbowl

career game for Hogan

blount! dang

woooooooooo!!!!

phil simms leans on his 2x super bowl winning experience to identify key factor is patriots are more passionate. so great that he gets these big games.

god bless hogan but the holes in this zone are, um, large

wow

yeahhhhh let's go evil pats

ok i admit they're evil but on the one hand, the fans don't like trump & i don't think the *civil* war is the intention with the pat patriot guy

on the other hand, kraft and belichick friendship with trump not to mention brady refusing to say anything disgusts me

i mean i hate the steelers but at least their ownership supported obama & i still want to know why brady didn't go to the white house with the rest of the 2014 team

steelers owner got a sweet ambassadorship for his trouble.

idk i admit i'm going to compartmentalize this but i only have a couple years of a++++ football left to enjoy dammit

anyway re: this game apparently the steelers have never changed their defense b/c brady took one look at this and carved it up

yeah i'm def compartmentalizing. tbh i really like a lot of guys on the steelers inc antonio brown <3 and tomlin and feel bad for bell getting hurt today

omg belichick is happy? what is this

guys marty-bennett-dancing-with-cheerleaders.gif <3 speaking of favorite players. that guy is a trip

dying @ nantz not being able to come up with anything better than referring to linda as bill's "lady."

also fuck mike tomlin he tripped a guy on the field of play. do feel bad for bell tho.

sorry bud :(

sorry mookie :(

haha thx

"Man Jim, she is not my girlfriend, she is my 'lady friend'...there is a difference, don't be spreading that out dude. Bro you know I play the field, Beli don't mind the steady but his options are always open."

i would not watch that lifetime biopic

guys

awesome

chris long no doubt looking on from the sidelines, wishing he could join in

daft punk + whitney houston >>>> all other music ever played at gillette, probably

now listening to belichick postgame presser and for a second there i thought he'd lost the game based on tone. never change bill

say what you want about bill but in the first question nantz asked him on the field he immediately put credit onto the players. that stuff is real and it matters.

this is p interesting, clip from an old bill o'brien clinic where he is describing the concept that NE used to get hogan open so much today. always interesting how simple these things are on the surface, but of course buried in the overall complexity of the game.
