Week 19: Divisional Playoff ~ Browns @ Chiefs

sounds about right

 

sounds about right.

although the Browns have gone over 40 (4) times this season, the Chiefs have only done it once...

So, I’m more prone to Browns 45, Chiefs 38

 

Edward-Helaire is out for KC...

Le'Veon Bell, Darrell Williams, and Darwin Thompson are the other backs for the Chiefs. Thats a bit of a break, but i look for Mahomes to air it out anyways.

Im hoping the Browns jump on them early like they did Pittsburgh... I think that will be key. Dont want to see Mayfield playing desperate or catch-up football, as that may not bode well for the offense.

Im really stoked for you Browns fans... cant wait to get the show underway.

 

This Sunday will do.

 

I agree Will, it will be important to be playing from the lead. I don’t want it to turn into desperate shots to try and keep up, that could be disastrous.

we really need pressure all game long in the Chiefs backfield, that will be the biggest key to this game.

 

KC is the favorite for good reason; Cleveland can definitely win, though.


I agree Dan............KC comes off a BYE week and Cleveland is Hungry.

I picked the Browns for my Upset.

 

Honestly, I think these two teams are the most well matched in the playoffs.

defenses are nearly identical
Mahomes obviously is an advantage in the passing game
Our running game is an obvious advantage and equalizer

I’m excited to see who makes less mistakes as that will be your winner.

 

I believe it was a big mistake to give Mahomes the ball first. The Browns needed to try to score first

 

Gid, no disrespect, but after your recent screed of prognostications, I am going to take a strictly contrarian stance to your opinions.

 

Mayfield to Peoples-Jones looked pretty... tight throw and catch.

 

Damn

 

Mayfield has been making some great throws

that fumble and touchback is a killer

 

Leading with the helmet not reviewable and directly led to the touchback.

 

Where in the hell is the targeting penalty? Textbook lowers the helmet to helmet... that’s bullshit!!

 

Such a blatant penalty should be reversible upon review. It doesn’t get much worse than that.

 

If helmet to helmet is such a huge concern....it should 100% be reviewable.

 

Agreed. They go to great lengths to get it right... unless the ref misses it in real time, then it’s like it didn’t happen.
