Stafford throws another TD pass. 21-17 with about 4 minutes left in the half. Shootout so far. No punts.

 

[Horns365]

A few questionable calls against the lions.

 

[stanhin]

Teams trade FGs. Stafford looked hurt after that last hit. Don't know if he will be back in. . . . He's in.

 

[stanhin]

Lions hold Rams to another FG and still lead by one with 8 minutes to go. Now this is what a playoff game is supposed to look like.

Some guys look like they’re about to die and then five minutes later they’re alright.

 

[stanhin]

Lions hold Rams. About 4 minutes left. Lions want to run out the clock.

 

[Horns365]

Stafford hits Nacua for 50 yard TD. 14-10

Nucua looking like Jerry Rice. Tirico has literally said his name 50+ x tonight.

Revenge for Astros.

Lost cable a little while ago. What is the final on the Rams and Lambs?

Lambs win 24-23…presumably. NBC weather in Dallas just cut away from the game with less than two min remaining to talk about snowflakes…

It could be worse. You might have had to watch "Heidi"

I'm old enough (too old) to remember that happening late 1968. Dad and I were watching the Jets and Raiders playoff game... game cut off at a critical time late 4th qtr. Fans and viewers went NUTS on NBC for cutting away for Heidi !!!

I remember hearing about it and thinking, "who the hell watches the AFL". We watched the NFL game, but considered the NFL to be "real football". AFL was for leftovers.

Isn't that what "Texan" means?

also, the cowboys seem like they kinda suck

I have that same memory. That really sucked!

Yeah, we were NFL, but watched that game for some reason. Maybe cause George Blanda was 40 year old QB for the Raiders throwing strikes to Fred Bilentikoff and the Jets QB was Broadway Joe Naimaith and several UT alumns... Pete Lammons, John Elliott, George Sauer and Jim Hudson.

Same here. It was probably my first real WTF moment if there was ever such a thing back then. Plus I wouldn’t have known what that meant.

I was able to watch the Oilers with George Blanda, Billy Cannon, Charlie Tolar, and visiting players such as Boston QB Babe Parilli and Dallas Texans QB Len Dawson in the early ‘60s at Jeppesen Stadium in Houston. Best I can recall, the crowds were sparse and whatever fans were there liked sitting in the end zone seats seeing how you could keep balls kicked into the stands. That is unless my memory has failed me on the ball part.

Heard on the news this morning that Bills fans have turned out for a call of volunteers to help remove 2 feet of snow from Highmark Stadium. Props to them!

Not much else to do in Buffalo.

Except shuffle…guess they can change that to shovel now.

 

[LonghornCatholic]

I don’t watch much NFL - hard to enjoy for some reason - but the Boys are my team even though I hardly watch them…but I wonder, since JJ has to have a coach that he can totally control, then that type of coach is probably soft, thus his team is soft (though very good at times). Hence, outcomes like last night. My 2 cents

Lucky for Houston that Ted Cruz was jinxing the Cowboys this weekend

 

[HornHuskerDad]

Guess I must be a glutton for punishment - I watched the entire Cowboys game yesterday. Painful!

They are only shoveling the walkways. The seats are all full of snow.

Guy,

The nickname does not make them so. Consider the previous "Texans":

Lamar Hunt's Dallas Texans were the closest to the real thing & the only one owned by a true Texan, BUT he couldn't compete with Mr Murchison, Gil Brandt, & Tex Schram, so they were soon off to Kansas City to become the Chiefs, BUT we have that everlasting memory of Abner Haynes being allowed to call the coin toss in OT.

Before Lamar, there was an NFL team called the "Texans" for one year before they ran off to Baltimore to be the Colts. Don't know if Irsay had anything to do with them, but Dallas was better off to not have Irsay around.

While Cal McNair graduated from Texas, they are a South Carolina family.
