First of all, we are all thinking of Damar Hamlin and hoping for a full recovery. We had hoped to discuss what looked like one of the biggest match ups of the season in the NFL, but obviously that did not happen. And rightfully so.
There were still (finally) some amazing bowl games in College Football including the College Football Playoff Semi-Finals, which saw two great games. Kansas and Arkansas faced off in an EPIC Liberty Bowl. Also, what the hell is targeting anymore? PACKED week(end) of bowl games and like we said, finally some good ones.
Week 17 in the NFL was also jam packed with some great games. The Giants clinched a playoff spot for the first time since 2016. The Packers absolutely housed the Vikings and kept their playoff hopes alive, as did the Steelers with a win over the Ravens on Sunday night. The game of the week was the 49ers taking on the Raiders in Las Vegas and as epic as it was, there were even bigger, more epic-er implications as this game also featured the #KickerBowl2022 as Justin's 3rd place spot in his fantasy football league was decided by the Daniel Carlson vs. Robbie Gould matchup. Going into the 3rd place match up, it was decided that Justin and his opponent would sit their whole team except for their kickers. FInd out how it all went down and ended up!
Finally, again, we want to wish Damar Hamlin all of our best as we are thinking of him, his family, the Bills, and the Bengals and everybody involved. We end on some thoughts on how the NFL handled the situation and more importantly, the humanity shown by the Bills and the Bengals and their respective players and head coaches Sean McDermott and Zac Taylor.
