I'm not sure I'd call a likely future hall of fame tight end just some "guy", although he certainly didn't help his case tonight.

His playoff numbers are anything but hall of fame. He chokes when it matters.

Bills - Chiefs should be fun.

It still seems pretty unthinkable that Mahomes is only 29 and is playing in his 7th straight AFC Championship game. I think this time the Bills finally past the Chiefs in the 4th playoff matchup between these two teams - Bills 28 Chiefs 24

Commanders and Eagles will be interesting too but I think the Commanders could surprise again here....let's go 27 - 21 for the Commanders.

I know I’m setting myself up for the inevitable but damn it feels good to be a game away again.

I think Saquan is good for 3-4 TDS alone next week… the only way commanders can pull it off is by scoring 45.

Without digging into numbers, I have to think Andrew's is a farbid from HOF at this point.

And given that his number one career moment is now this game, that ain't gonna help. His numbers are pretty good and if he kept it up for 4-6 more years he might have a case. But right now not really.

MAYBE if he plays another 6 or 7 years...he MIGHT get HOF consideration.

But right now? Laughable to even suggest it.

I think the Bills beat the brakes off the Chiefs next weekend unless the officiating is extra Chiefy.

Eagles/Commies is a tough one. I think the Eagles are the more talented team, but Daniels is playing at an elite level and Hurts is actively killing drives by taking stupid sacks.

It would be very Bills like to have lost a Superbowl against every NFC East team.

Although if it came to that, even I'd cheer for the Bills in that game.

I came of age as an Eagles fan in the era of 3 straight NFC championship game losses, and 4 in total under Andy Reid. They were the home team in 2 of them and the favourites in 3.

I take nothing for granted with these clowns.

But they don't have McNabb these days.

Sober McNabb was lights out. Hungover McNabb was a different story.

Anyways, the Eagles donated $500k to LA disaster relief. What a bunch of scumbags.

Thia is what I meant by future HOFer, projecting his numbers going forward it seems like better than a coin flip he gets there, especially if he stays where he is with Lamar. But you're right about this game.

He's only had a single 1000 yard season so he's going to have to have to pull off some huge seasons in the back half of his career as right now he's not even close.

Jackson will take a lot of heat for not being able to win the big game but he did drive the team down the field for a TD and threw a very catchable ball to Andrews who simply picked a bad day to have his worst game as he had several drops and that fumble was a back breaker. When two really good teams face off it usually comes down to which team can avoid making the costly mistakes and that's what happened in this game.

To me the fumble hurt more than the drop. Buffalo has 1:33 with 3 time outs to get in position to kick a field goal. I get that Bills and kickers are no sure thing, but I tend to think Josh Allen would pull that off. Ultimately those two fumbles in Bills territory that likely took at least 6 points off the board that did the Ravens in.

Have to hand it to Joe Brady as he's really reeled in the wildness in Josh Allen's game without completely neutering him. The Bills cutting down their turnovers like they have has really made them extremely difficult to beat.

Lamar had a bad first half.

But then he was lights out in the second half and got them back into the game (combined with the Bills playing very conservatively).

Andrews mistakes are just more costly because they came in a time where really the Ravens couldn't really be stopped in the second half.
