This may be the worst QB performance ever in the playoffs by a team still in the game

Stroud could have run as far as that incompletion.

Sorry, disagree, in the old days, weather hardened players make those catches

Stroud after all this shit still stands tall and proud without happy feet. That is impressive.

There have been several not sure handed drops. I think one may have been INT. That is definitely some related with the gloves.

Would not be surprised to see him actually pull this victory off. He has had short memory.

Also would not be surprised to see 3 more pick sixes by Stroud.

Well that's obvious DPI on Gonzalez but who cares anymore except those betting on Houston to cover the spread?

CJ is so horrific that he is blowing out his own TEs knee by throwing 3 feet behind him.

WTF

No, you're "good" as long as the Steelers make the playoffs and get blown out in the first round.

Would have been nice if the Steelers actually had a role in stopping NE but BB always considered any playoff game against us as a bye week.

Stroud needs to get on with his life's work in gay German deification porn.

Punting down by 12 with 4 minutes left and 1 TO. Very Tomlinesque.

Stroud and Allen have moved down the tier list to Ham and Egger also-ran losers.

Hard to wash that stink off.

Nah he's consoling himself by sledgehammering Haliie Stanfield.

Don't compare Allen to Stroud.

So Stroud finally throws a great pass and the domed team WR chokes. Goes to my point earlier.

Hilarious to listen to Ringgold's Scott Zolak calling Pats games.

He is so close to running F bombs all the time. I guess he's passionate.

Why am I rooting for the Pats.

Remember that playoff game where the Bengals destroyed a superior Dan Fouts Chargers team because they couldn't handle the cold and elements? Gotta play and train in all possible conditions.

Also see French and German army in Russia.
