SportsFilter: The Monday Huddle:

No disrespect to the Chiefs, but the Ravens and Bills meeting in the Divisional Round instead of the Conference Championship is almost criminal.

The Ravens defense will not be able to contain the Bills offense. I think the inevitable Chiefs/Bills game will be better.

Looks like it's going to be (another) Lake Effect Snow Week in Western NY this week.
Game conditions at the Bills stadium could be interesting.
Both teams are capable of putting up 200 + yards of rushing.
The template of the Pats beating the Bills in a Buffalo maelstrom while throwing only three passes hasn't left the minds of game planners.
The Ravens are a bit deeper and deadlier in the run game. Two great OC's. Should be good.

Bears ask Cowboys to speak to Mike McCarthy
Cowboys wait over 24 hours to respond, then say no
End of season coaching changes begin two Sundays ago
Cowboys wait till today to let McCarthy go
Here's Jerry Jones' approach to running the front office briskly and efficiently

That's crazy. Jones is such an asshole.

That Commanders-Bucs game last night was physical. They could have played the whole game in the blue tent.
