Itstrainingtime Posted January 10, 2022 Share Posted January 10, 2022 Wow. That's all I got after yesterday's NFL games. Black and Gold needed a miracle in Jacksonville and got it. Then, the unthinkable, the unimaginable...came THAT close to happening. 26 this morning and breezy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To my above comment: This. I can't imagine they'd be able to script these without league, ownership, coaches and players all involved and no way with that many involved someone doesn't talk about it, especially say someone like Antonio brown lol. Sure you could have officials throw a flag on borderline situations but a lot of these also would require the right plays to be called, players to actually execute or not execute so a desired outcome happens etc. The simplest answer here is probably right, the league has a good product and teams are generally close enough in competitive measure that random bounces / plays are enough to result in close games. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The point you mentioned is what I have to remind myself every time the “maybe it’s scripted” thought creeps into my mind. It’s quite simple really: if it were scripted, some disgruntled current or former player/coach/ref/etc. would have leaked it a long time ago. I’m glad I chose to go to bed when the LV/LAC game got to 26-14 (because how many games that are 26-14 in the 4th end up going to overtime?), because I’m fairly certain I would have had a heart attack if I saw how it ended. But hopefully it is scripted, because that’s the only way the Steelers beat the Chiefs on Sunday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I honestly couldn't believe some of what I was witnessing yesterday. What a day, and how the heck are both the Eagles and the Steelers in the playoffs?? Both teams loving that new 7th playoff spot haha. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After watching the first half and eliminating the possibility of a kneeling 70 minute game I went to bed thinking no chance it would organically make it into overtime. I am shocked that once in overtime it did not end up in a tie. I agree with both you and @RitualOfTheTroutthat it would be too complex to fix that type of result. But I do find it funny that multiple sportsbooks had liabilities in the millions for that game ending in a tie after the Jags moneyline hit. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yea, if that was a script last night, we are living in the Matrix or some similar "non-real" life stream where anything can happen. The items I saw in the replay were beyond unbelievable and in many cases, singly enough to be a miracle. The game had a dozen miracles in it. One that keeps sticking in my head is the 4th and 9 in OT where Williams Mike Williams had the long gain. I looked at that several times and how it happened seemed to mystify the Raiders AND Keenan Allen seems to duck to allow Williams to get the ball...instead of taking it himself. Crazy.

You’re right, I’m actually neglecting the possibility that the entire human existence is scripted. If so, I hope that script has a massive snowstorm written into it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I call it dumb luck. They should have been a 5-12 team this year. Honestly this will screw them in the long run...they needed to pick high for a QB and instead backed into the playoffs to get killed by the chiefs. I hate the steelers btw.

There were a few posts around the mid point of the season, I was one of them, that pointed out that the Steel just finds ways to stay relevant. Boring but efficient. They have not finished below .500 since 2003 and have have only finished below .500 7 times since 1980. 40+ years and .500 or better 35 of them.
