I was disappointed Indy wasn't it and not real hip on Detroit. I had seen where some slapnuts where thinking Green Bay or Chicago... I mean WTF over? NO and Houston seemed maybe like other options but ATL is better for both fans I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reesebobby 5,661 Posted January 12, 2023 Share Posted January 12, 2023 In 2021, they had to move the All Star game out of Atlanta because of their racist voting laws. Is that taken care of? oldtimer, qnet and mex 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DieHard 2,061 Posted January 12, 2023 Share Posted January 12, 2023 Seems reasonable to me. I would say Cini knocks them off anyway, but I have a funny feeling the calls will go with Buffalo. Hamlin walking out for the coin toss in the Super Bowl would be a great moment for the league and could be in the back of the officials mind.

I see this like Dale Earnhardt Jr winning at Daytona the very next race there after his father was killed. As much as I was/am a HUGE Dale Sr fan and rooted for JR it was an interesting ending to say the least. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

reesebobby 5,661 Posted January 12, 2023 Share Posted January 12, 2023 If we play in Atlanta as the number 1 seed does that count as hosting 5 straight AFCCG for record book purposes? Are we the home team for purposes of coin toss and uniform colors? Are there Chiefs cheerleaders? Both team cheerleaders? Falcons stadium announcers?

Oh brother… I’m sorry but those kick returns were nothing more than a few missed tackles, some good blocking, and I’m sure some missed holding calls.

Lamardirts 2,114 Posted January 13, 2023 Share Posted January 13, 2023 I'm sure the NFL would love for the Bills to win the SB but Referee union doesn't like to be told what to do (remember the reviewable yet not really reviewable PI deal a few years back). I for one don't think the Bills are playing well enough to get past Cincy. They haven't looked great and with no Von Miller they aren't nearly as scary on D. I actually think a Tua led Dolphins team had a good shot to win but obviously not now with Skylar Thompson. Still can't see them getting past Cincy. That O is humming along and their DC seem adept in scheming up good coverage for talented qbs. Y'all might be right but we won't know until they play Cincy. Either way one of those teams isn't getting to the AFCCG and that makes me smile. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boone 304 Posted January 13, 2023 Share Posted January 13, 2023 Atlanta is a 5.5 hours drive from me. We have a place we could crash there, too.
