NFL Week 16 Reactions
Houston Texans (9-6) @ Kansas City Chiefs (14-1)
The Chiefs keep rolling with another win. They are the only team that hasn’t scored 31 points that has more than 3 wins this year.
Pittsburgh Steelers (10-5) @ Baltimore Ravens (10-5)
The Ravens showed up on a mission and ran through the Steelers. This will be a great divisional race to the very end.
New England Patriots (3-12) @ Buffalo Bills (12-3)
The Pats should have won this game. Their inexperience, costly turnovers, and lack of discipline cost them dearly. It’s disappointing, but at a silver lining is they now have the 2nd pick instead of the 6th pick.
Drake Maye came into the game as the only QB in the NFL with no designed runs. That is ridiculous. They need to fully utilize him.
There were some great things we saw today. Maye completely outplayed Josh Allen. The fake punt was great and ballsy. Jerrod Mayo has started to actually show some emotion on the sideline. Using Brenden Schooler as a QB spy is incredibly creative. This team has potential, we just need to deal with the growing pains.

NFL Week 15 Reactions
Buffalo Bills (11-3) @ Detroit Lions (12-2)
The Bills keep playing amazing games and Josh Allen keeps looking insane. Him and Jared Goff had an awesome duel and both teams put up over 500 yards of offense.
As great as Lions have been, they have by no means secured even the division title.
Pittsburgh Steelers (10-4) @ Philadelphia Eagles (12-2)
The Eagles keep ignoring the off-the-field noise and winning on the field. The passing game had a resurgence and everyone should be happy again.
New England Patriots (3-11) @ Arizona Cardinals (7-7)
The Patriots simply lost to a better team. The same problems that have dogged the Pats all year continue to occur. The one good thing is that if we win its great, but even if we lose, it gets us a better draft pick.

Belichick to UNC
In a shocking turn of events, Bill Belichick is now the head coach on UNC. Now that a couple days have passed, along with the initial shock, the decision seems to make more sense.
It looks like the market for Belichick as an NFL head coach was going to be very small. Even the teams that might consider him did not seem willing to let him have the level of control he was looking for and he likely would not have been able to bring in all the people he wanted. UNC will allow him to call all the shots.
He has always loved college football and grew up around the game. UNC is a great academic school that matches with Bill being an intelligent individual.
UNC is the perfect middle ground of being a good program, but not so prestigious that he can’t come in and take over the program without worrying about boosters and an AD looking over his shoulder all the time.
The transfer portal and NIL have made college football much more like the NFL. He will be able to recruit guys other programs don’t value enough and develop them into great players. Football players with dreams of going to the NFL will want to play for him.
All in all, I think he will be very successful. I don’t think he’ll be able to win a national title, but I think he can consistently compete to win the ACC and make the playoffs.
