That's exactly what I meant to say, nothing else. My choice of the term "fire sale" was lest than perfect. Nothing else came to mind. I can be eloquent at times, at other times the words elude me. "Fire sale" suggests selling things cheap. Arguably they undervalued those draft picks, so I don't think I was all that off there, but yes it was an improper use of the term.
The Bengals had the longest odds, and were therefore the biggest underdogs, going into the divisional round. Again, Cinderella team = Bengals team that is going to its first conference championship in 34 years, not the team that was in the Super Bowl two years ago.
There have been others as well.Right now the Bengals have the longest odds to win the Super Bowl, +800.

Better start believing.
Changed my picks to Bengals and Rams. Might flip-flop on the NFC team but I am locking it in for the AFC.

After much meditation, I have realized Burrow is not a living qb, but rather an undead. He cannot be slayed by normal means(pass rush creating happy feet and rushed decisions, which even the great Tom Brady could not escape from).LOL.... I'm sticking with KC (who I picked to win the SB) BUT I've jumped onto the 49'ers bandwagon!

Bury him, and he will simply rise up from his grave again and again.
Well, i did say that Burrow will be one of the four arbiters of fate in the AFC and poor Josh Allen is not one of them(nor will Lamar).The ONE thing that makes me hesitant to root for the Bengals is that we'll all have to listen to you gloat endlessly if they do pull it off!

And I did warn everyone in this thread I WILL be insufferable if he wins it all.
And indirectly, it's all Washington's fault because they took out Burrow's knee, which then allow them to suck and get Chase.
(And Jimmy G, because if San Fran had Chase instead of Lance...)
These Bengals did beat KC already, so the intimidation factor is NOT there, including an amazing 3rd and 27 conversion in that game.
What's amazing to me is that before the regular season began, the Bengals had the 4th longest odds to win the Super Bowl. Even worse than the Jags! They've already vastly exceeded expectations, and you calling them Cinderella is even more appropriate.

There are at least a couple factors. Before the wild card games, the Niners were a 6th seed and had a long road to the Super Bowl. It's not impossible, but a wild card team winning 3 straight on the road to get to the SB is rare. Now that the Niners have two quality wins under their belts, bettors have adjusted expectations accordingly. Beating the Cowboys and Packers is a lot more impressive than outlasting the Raiders and Titans.
Well, Burrow apparently is not intimidated by the loudness of Arrowhead in the slightest.
No sex appeal whatsoever.JFK. Here's some release for the crazy one, maybe he can get his rocks off finally and leave the rest of the discussion alone...
I give you the Joe Burrow waifu pillow, that only one person has ever wanted. Here at last. Praise Jesus.
You say that like it's a bad thing. Just think, when you turn 90 this year he'll still be 13.
Voice and charisma matters and that Texas accent is charming as fuck.
Weren't you the one that wanted to call Lord Burrow the "King of the (AFC) North"?After much meditation, I have realized Burrow is not a living qb, but rather an undead.

I'm picking no one. I figure all 4 teams have good chances.Changed my picks to Bengals and Rams. Might flip-flop on the NFC team but I am locking it in for the AFC.
