Eh, Eagles punter damn near fell on his ass because of the shit field. You want bullshit? That's f***ing bullshit. That short punt is a big deal for the game and, had it happened to the Chiefs, it would be bullshit too. Garbage field should not be a factor in the Super Bowl when you had that much time to prepare and in a three point game, that was a factor. You also have your MVP playing on one leg. You're damn fortunate that he didn't screw his leg up even more on the field and KC had to put in a backup because the NFL, rightfully, wouldn't hear the end of it. Here's a solid take on dealing with it. Wow, looking at those stats I have to give the Chief's a lot of credit for being able to find the right cleats for their guys. I know that multiple players had to switch cleats for Philly and it helped some (Hurts) and made no difference to other (Reddick). Certainly helps explain how the Chief's were able to negate the Eagle's pass rush as through as they did. I'm am really pissed that the field had to play a factor at all in the most important game of the year. The Eagle's kicker legit fell on a kick off. Can you imagine if he gets hurt and isn't able to kick after that?

The main problem with the penalty call is that there is zero consistency and it looks shady as hell. Exhibit A: This no call cost the Commanders a chance to win that game. The ball is coming right to that guy and somehow not one of the refs saw anything. LMAO. This after the ref told the receiver that he was lined up properly and then flagged him for not be lined up properly on the previous play. I just figure that the NFL is rigged at this point but I’m still salty about this one. lol

They really do need to start ironing some of these things out during the owner's meetings. You can't have back-to-back Super Bowl marred by refball. Call things one way or the other and the team's will adjust, but just decide on how you want it.

Posts like this honestly make my eyes bleed. Acting like the Eagles are "frauds" is f***ing ridiculous, acting like they can't make it back here with the core they have? Even more so. We lost by 3 points to the perceived new goldenboy of the NFL and they needed refs and a shitty fumble to do it, with all due respect, no, the Eagles aren't done. Next time if our defense decides to make one f***ing stop in the entire game, maybe we win the Superbowl and posts like this happily don't exist, so it goes... Please don't infect another part of the board with your inability to read very minor criticism of anything you're passionate about.Nowhere in that post do I say the Eagles are 'frauds'. In fact, I totally agree that they were hard done to by the penalty. Saying that they will likely not have a better chance to win than that for a good few years is just a fact. However good you are, the more you play good teams the more games you'll lose. People before the AFC Championship were saying the Chiefs choke in big games - I don't think that's true, it's just the Bills & Bengals (and Brady's Pats and Bucs) are really good teams too. You're going to win some and you'll lose some. Next year the Eagles will have a tougher schedule and will have a much harder time to get back to the Super Bowl. At this time of year, people console the losing side by saying they'll definitely be back - history tells you that is pretty rarely the case. That's why you have to take your chances when you get them, and that's why the call that ended this game was so devastating. Hey you know what you could have done? This entire post, respectfully to me, without this part Thanks for calling me an infection though for daring to feel passionate about something I love and daring to jump into the discussion about it. I can tolerate if I blew up a bit hard at your post and generalized a few things I'd seen and just felt like I needed to vent for a second when I saw yours, and simply didn't see what you were trying to ultimately get across, that shit happens, fair, I'd easily apologize for that. But I won't tolerate you putting me in some corner and essentially telling me to shut the f*** up and "Not to ruin another Board", I've been here for 10 years talking about sports and this was one of the most emotional games and results I've ever experienced, forgive me if I was a bit on edge and responded to a post that I thought was being a bit over the top about the Eagles, but it's nice to know where you stand I guess.

Eh, you use terms like infected and I can't take you seriously anymore. This place is supposed to be fun but then you use those terms. Shrugs.
After everything's the world's gone through and you just toss the word infect around, that's just disappointing.

He was absolutely wrong, but it all can be avoided with a change of tone.

The board uses hyperbole all the time, and seeing stuff like "The Eagles might never make it back" is exhausting as a fan who watched the game as a whole I didn't think what I said was out of line, calling me an "infection" however for daring to be pissed about my team losing and seeing posts that feel their window may have shut? I think that's a bit much, the worst I said was I wish the Eagles had won so we didn't see takes like this, that's usually as far as I go, being mad at a take isn't me being mad at a person. But when it comes to me, it always gets personal. I'm tired of being treated like this lately, like I can't say anything anymore, positive or negative, without it turning into a personal shot at me, that makes me feel like I shouldn't be here anymore, after being here so long, being so disrespected like this. It's just getting to a breaking point and I don't think it's fair, I wouldn't think it's fair to anyone else either. It's not hypocrisy, there's a clear difference between my post and theirs. I didn't like the take, I didn't call the person out or say that they ruin a proboard section with their takes, so again, sorry if I went a bit over the top, it was an emotional end to my teams season and losing a Superbowl hurts, but I'm not going at the throat of posters like this, and when people do it to me, it's hard for me to stay quiet on the matter anymore.

You gotta see it from the perspective of the other posters or at least try too. If not, you’re gonna run into the same uncomfortable situations. From an outsider’s vantage point, there wasn’t much of a difference. I’m trying to help you here but you gotta be willing to see it from other people. Comments like “makes my eyes bleed” isn’t obvious hyperbole to many people here. It’s off putting and diminishing their pov, regardless of the context. Again just trying to help, because this place isn’t as fun as used to be.

Even saying something as simple as "Calm down" would have sufficed, we all have these moments. If people are gonna get angry at my wording or tell me what I should do less, that's fair, but I'm also not gonna sit here and nod my head and act like me taking potshot after potshot in a public forum is ok, it might've been annoying at first, but after months and months of it? Yeah, you're right, this place isn't as fun as it used to be... I'll say it one last time, my DMs are open, I have other socials if people wanna hash stuff out there. Anything, literally anything, is better than these squabbles in various threads out of nowhere.

This game just wasn't very good, or at least memorable for me. These playoffs as a whole were pretty underwhelming. I guess for me it's because last years playoffs were SOOOOOO good, like a once in a generation thing, there was no way that this years were gonna measure up. That's just my opinion though, especially since I didn't have a horse in the race like with Stafford winning LVI. Congrats to the KC fans, enjoy it. However just remember this, we're now all 0-0 again, and for once I'm optimistic for my Lions going into next season.
