I don't give one flying fuck about the playoffs as long as someone beats the Cowboys.

I don't know what Frank Gore's HOF chances are, but I'll be genuinely upset if he doesn't make it.
 
Dude just rushed for 1000+ yards at 33 years old on two surgically repaired knees.
 
I love the guy more than any player in my sports watching career, but he's never been an elite running back at any point in his career... so that's going to hurt his chances.

Then again, he only needs 1037 yards to pass Curtis Martin for 4th all time

he'll get in but it'll be hard

His pre-injury highlight video on youtube is delightful

He is a top 15 running back of all time.

I don't know if I would classify Frank Gore as great. He's mostly been an above average back, it's just sustained longer than most RBs. 
 
As Jake said, he really has never had an elite season (his 2nd year in the league he did, but after that, nothing).

Wait, Jordan Howard finished 2nd in the league in rushing...?
 
The top two rushers in the league this year were fucking rookies.

The Raiders' 3rd string rookie is going to be the best QB in a playoff game against a guy who got paid $72 Million last offseason.
 
 
Somebody needs to get fired over that Osweiler signing.

I hear O'Brien is trying to get fired so he doesn't have to stay with Osweiler, since they literally gave him all that money without him even meeting anyone. O'Brien from the start has insinuated he hasn't liked Osweiler.

Yeah everything I've seen from Texans fans makes me think that no one likes Rick Smith. It should have been a red flag when the Broncos benched Brock last year for Peyton, who had turned into an actual zombie. It's hard to give the Broncos too much credit though, since they were willing to give him $16M a year too.

Tomorrow will be Leveon Bell's first career playoff game, which doesn't sound right.
