That was a lot of fun, wasn't it? "Super" Wild Card Weekend was a similar to Wild Card Weekend ... but SUPER! It's all more fun when you throw "Super" before it. You can see: Mario Bros., Nintendo Man, Mario, and College Football 25 Coins bowl. Sorry, I can't keep up with this show. This was all an attempt by College Football 25 to make more money, so congratulations I guess.
We absolutely didn't have to watch the Buccaneers take on in the Eagles or the Chiefs smash the Steelers during a three-hour broadcasting tribute to Ben Roethlisberger -- but we did and it was the most boring thing during the entire weekend.
The more you have, the less. The four game weekend format was already perfect. The two NFC, two AFC coherence was present and it was great. We're now pushing this whole issue into Monday with an unbalanced three game Sunday. I understand that raging against the machine is an unpractical business, but I'm hoping that the players will see some value when they sign the next CBA of being put on the line for an extra week of regular-season play, as well as an additional playoff game.
We'll not spend any further time thinking about why this weekend went down and instead look at the incredible events that occurred.
There were a lot of notable quarterbacks who were winners this week however none was more so in the league than Josh Allen. Beyond the astounding stats, it was more about the statement Allen said on the weekend than anything else.
No, it's not true, normally , I hate the concept of"statement games. "statement games." The term is used to describe buzzword sports phrases that we create for the sake of telling stories, but don't really represent the reality of the athletes engaged in the sport. They don't bother about "statements," they operate to win, go on and repeat.
However, the spectacle of Bills vs. Patriots is massive. It's big in the regular season, but enormous in the playoffsincluding playing as wild cards. This is a rivalry formed in the midst of a fiery furnace and was ignited with the anger of decades in the Bills having to finish second. The year before we were discussing the power shift within the division to Buffalo and the division shifted back mid-2021 as it became clear New England was far from dead.
For while it seemed that the Bills would be heading back to waiting for their chance. The Patriots increased their lead with Mac Jones midseason as the Bills fell apart, but then Buffalo gained momentum while New England regressed. This made the playoff game an all-or-nothing affair. The door was shut on it really fast.
Buffalo did not only beat the Patriots but they also wiped them out in the process. And it was thanks to Allen's flawless game. Moments like this are why the Bills were so confident in extending Allen's contract during the offseason, a massive contract. If you're able beat the Patriots at home in the playoffs it's the most definitive sign that things are changing.
The most striking thing about Allen's game is the Cheap CFB 25 Coins amount of different weapons he employed through the air. He completed 21 passes to nine different receivers. This shows an array of passes that's been missed so much this season.
