I’d at least give an honorable mention to Ike Taylor getting lit up by Tim Tebow (?!?!?) in the wild card round a few years ago in overtime. “Make Tebow beat us through the air.” seemed like a solid plan, right up until he somehow did exactly that.

Sometimes, if a team is < 3pt underdogs at home, they’re the better team. Vegas likes to make money. The line changes sometimes because people are putting money on the Eagles so they have to make the Falcons bet more enticing. Remember who sets the lines... the people trying to take your money.
Just keep the field goal attempts at longer than 40 yards
Nice snarky headline. And I read Deadspin for the snark. But after watching the game, if this is the best you got, it rings hollow.
Mariota caught his own pass for a touchdown. I don’t think anything will quite be as insane as that but it certainly set the stage and I am here for it.
Not until after the Foles vs Keenum NFC championship game!
P.S. Its great when Mariota grabs a deflection for A TD, or Franco Harris does it, but God forbid Philly gets a break.
I swear Deadspin has a hard on for Philly. You know what. Eat s**t.
Foles foils Falcons; fucks Falcon’s formula for final fight for fulfillment, fortunes for foreseeable future.
Torrey Smith catching that deflection off the knee had me jumping around my living room. I don’t know how the fuck but I love it. These playoffs have been far better than they’ve had any right to be.
I for one am looking forward to the Foles v Bortles Super Bowl!
Counterpoint: Fuck you.
Dammit, you can’t just go around proposing that everybody eat their babies, no matter how modest you are about it.

“drank too much at a bar and treated American strangers like I would my Irish friends.”
My initial reaction is that the joke was okay. But I’m an Iowa fan and I looked up how many times he’s actually gone 6-6 and it’s only once or twice, depending: 2006 (6-7 including a bowl loss) and 2007 (6-6, no bowl). That’s out of 3 years at Maine and 19 at Iowa. Furthermore, in his career he is 155-118 (143-97 at…
Completely agree that new blood atop the NBA is needed; but does it really have to be the Celtics!?
Its just like all the pundits said before the playoffs started, “You cannot win playoff football in THE NATIONAL FOOTBALL LEAGUE unless you can stop Blake Bortles’ running game and prevent Marcus Mariota throwing touchdowns to himself!”
