NFL 2016-17 playoffs running thread

Not having LeGarrette Blount is making New England's offense rather one dimensional.

 

Ummm.... Blount is playing.

 

He wasn't 100 percent all week, and two carries makes me believe he's not 100 percent today.

 

Texans had a quarterback, they'd be up 10 right now.

 

They are on pace for a touchdown more than their average score.

 

Not if you include the special teams touchdown.

 

Thread is at Pecan Sandies level now.

 

1. They've scored 10 points on offense.

2. They average 66 offensive snaps per game. At halftime, they've run 24 offensive plays today.

 

Still on pace for 34 points despite all that.

 

There is quite a difference between the Texans and either the Chiefs or Steelers. I still think the Patriots are going to the Super Bowl, but I doubt the AFC Championship will be easy.

Edited to clarify my point. I still think the Patriots win, but the Chiefs or Steelers will give them a game. Hell, the Steelers gave them a game with Landry Jones at quarterback.

 

For once OOP and I agree. I think the NFC representative will be a tough matchup, be Cowboys, the Packers of the Falcons.

 

I disagree. Texans have made many, many plays and they're down 11. If the Pats block, they'll beat the Steelers by 14. The Chiefs would lose by 9, scoring a TD on a 12-minute drive in the fourth.
Oh, I only meant get to the Super Bowl. It will be close. Pats have never played one that wasn't.
