Conference Week Results: Eagles will Face Off against Chiefs in Super Bowl
Eagles/Chiefs Move On Up
Philly dominates SF, Refs Become FWBs for KC In Tight Win Over Cincy.
On Championship Sunday we saw two polar views between the NFC and AFC title games. In Philadelphia the Eagles beat the San Francisco 49ers box-to-wire 31-7 at the Link. The Niners (15-5) had been the winners of 9 straight games and were arguably the hottest team in football. Yesterday they went ice cold at the Eagles (16-3) throttled them to advance to Super Bowl LVII in Arizona on February 12. The Kansas City Chiefs (16-3) on the other had to fight tooth and nail with the Cincinnati Bengals (14-5) to squeeze out a 23-20 victory that has generated heavy buzz on the internet that the “Fix was in” for KC at Arrowhead Stadium.
Tied at 20 and with the ball just over the midline, the Chiefs QB Patrick Mahomes scrambled from the pocket and sought to get out of bounds to stop the clock with 0.08 left on the clock. There appeared to be at least one blatant offensive illegal hold that actually sprung Mahomes from trouble and then was followed up by 15-yard unnecessary roughness call vs. Cincy’s Joseph Assai, who was the only person on the play that got hurt. Mahomes when full Super Man mode diving forward as if assaulted on the clear-cut flop of a maneuver.
The covering officials saw it otherwise and called Assai – who was writhing in pain even as Mahomes bounded to his feet and jogged back on the field - for the personal foul and the tack-on yardage set Harrison Butker up for the game-winning field goal in the game’s waning moments. KC won 23-20 and the extra 15 yards may have been the difference between the game ending in regulation or going to overtime.
In Pool action we had our first ever in NFL/Bizlax Pool history we had double double winners. “Laxfoot ($180 Pool) and “Off Constantly” ($90 Pool) each hit twice in both games with “Laxfoot” netting $400 on the day and “Off Constantly” picking up $2090 in winnings. Nice work
So close to OT. With the Super Bowl looming the early notification here is that we will be running two (2) squares sheets that day for each group: The $180 Pool will have square sheet that pays out $2oo per quarter and one that pays $500/quarter. The $90 Pool with be paying $100/quarter hits and $250/quarter hits.
OT hits will be cognized on the $200/$100 square sheets only and at this there is $300 in play for original pool and $150 for the new pool. More info to follow.
And thanks to the many pool participants that showed up to the Pub yesterday. Was great to see yez…
