The good news: You just made the playoffs for the 1st time since Super Bowl 50!

 

The Bad news: You just won yourself a trip to Buffalo!

 

And Justin and Coach Harbaugh are also headed to the post season.

The Broncos blew out the Chiefs, who were resting a litany of starters, on Sunday to clinch their first playoff berth since winning Super Bowl 50 to end the 2015 season.

 

38 to nada wow!!!

Mariota also had a day by the look of it. 

 

I'll admit I haven't watched much NFL this year, it's usually not my thing, but whenever I see Mariota get playtime this year he seems to make the most of it. 

FromESPN coverage:

 

Nix set a franchise record by completing his first 18 passes of the game, and his four touchdowns gave him 29 for the season, second in NFL history only to Justin Herbert's 31 in 2020 for a rookie quarterback.

KC absolutely didn't come to play today. Bo was terrific but the Chiefs A team was saving itself for the playoffs.

Broncos didn't care. They just wanted to continue the season!

Good job. BO

Chiefs had absolutely nothing to gain by winning, No.1 was wrapped up. Broncos had every reason to win, and got it done.

Let's hope Bo does a Mariota against Josh Allen.  I still fondly remember that game in Autzen when Matriota-led OBD slaughtered Wyoming with Allen as QB.  We sat near the end zone where Mariota flipped into to score a TD.   Oh, the glory days!

As a Commanders fan, Mariota saved our day, though in retrospect, the day didn't need saving after the Bears put a dagger into the Packers at Lambeau.

 

In any case, Mariota showed he still has value as a serviceable NFL qb. I doubt he'll be in D.C. next year, unfortunately. Veteran qb's rarely stay put unless the situation, for playing time or financial, is conducive to their short-term plans.

Bart Starr was 9-1 in Playoff games; the one loss was to Philadelphia in 1960. The Eagles QB was. Once a Duck, Always a Duck, Norm Van Brocklin.
