So my point is, anyone picking NE before that game (I'm also a bit surprised the line was only 4.5) had to believe Darnold was gonna give the ball away multiple times (which they hadn't for 2 months) AND a 2nd yr QB getting sacked at a historic rate was going to beat the best D in the league 😳 🤔

The 3 games Seattle lost, 49ers went on a late TD drive (after 2 SEA 4Q fumbles), they missed a long GW FG after driving from the 1 w/ 1:40 left after 4 Darnold INTs, & they had a TD lead w/ 3 min left, & the ball tied w/ 1 min left & Darnold threw a pick. Then 1st turnover-free team in playoffs!

should've lost 2 of their 3 games w/ any kind of decent QB play. I could see how you might think they'd keep it close-ish (w/in 1 score, lots of FGs, etc), but how do you look at tape of these 2 teams & conclude anything but Seattle was gonna win? #SuperBowl

I honestly think OKC & Cleveland are the best teams as their records showed this year. Would LOVE to see that Finals. The Clippers might actually be the toughest matchup, but Harden will find a way to botch it & Kawhi staying healthy for potentially 28 games is not likely #nbaplayoffs

The point is, when shots don't go in, bball is hard to watch regardless of style. Houston controlled virtually the whole game & just had too many unforced errors/bad shots, too many missed FTs, and too many fouls (real & imaginary) in 2nd half. How did the refs miss that goaltend in 1st half?
