    Aaron Donald best interior pass rusher of all time

    Not sure I would want the 1 seed. As long as the Rams get the 2 they are looking at playing the Bears at home (as long as they don’t blow it to Minnesota/Philly. With that being said the worst teams to play in the Divisional Round are Seattle and Dallas IMO. Saints would play one

    Aaron Donald, with 19.5 sacks, on whether he thinks he can reach Michael Strahan’s NFL record of 22.5 next week vs. SF: “I’m just going to play and see what happens. I’m going to play.”

    Mahomes and Wilson combined for 5 td passes from outside the pocket, most in a game since 2012.

    One playoff spot left in the NFC, and it’ll come down to the two teams that played for the conference title last January: Minnesota and Philadelphia.

    I know twitter complained non stop at the start of the season with how the NFL was protecting QBs. Well guess what… almost all of the star QBs are healthy and this season has been outstanding. That’s why the rules are in place. So we can watch the best play.

    I’m fine with the league protecting the health of its players. In fact, I think it’s necessary and just.

    But the calls that get me are the ones where the D barely taps the QB, and it’s a flag. Or when they’re basically already airborne and end up against the QB’s legs. I wouldn’t call that. I think you need to be intentionally trying to hurt the QB — or any player, for that matter. Flag that. Repeat offense, throw the guy out.

    Helmet to Helmet stuff is really where they should focus, IMO. “Spearing” should get the two strikes and your out rule, and, again, I wouldn’t limit that to particular players, or just parts of the field. In my view, it should be universally applied. I cringe whenever I see it. Scares me to death for the players.

    I believe this. I am A-Okay with Chicago in Los Angeles. I think the Rams win that game without trouble.

    they also need to give some advantages back to the defense too without putting players at risk to serious injury.

    yeah i like watching good qbs succeed. but i also want to see good defenders excel as well.
