Re: JAX two straight weeks in London
This is actually better for the players than if they had to fly to London in September, fly back to Jacksonville, then fly back to London in late October. You can argue that making a team play 2 games in London is too much, but if they're going to play 2 in London, might as well get them over with i...

Re: 2023 season, Week 1
Rodgers says he'll be back, and I believe him. I just don't think he's going to be his whole self again. He will need the Jets to set up an offense similar to that of Big Ben's final years in Pittsburgh. He was a stationary quarterback and the Steelers knew it, so they made it so that he almost neve...

Re: The best, and the worst, NFL season thus far this century?
Best: 2007
You had the 16-0 Patriots, the enormous upset in the Super Bowl (which was one of the best ever played, if not the best), Brett Favre's renaissance year, the Cowboys' fantastic season, the Chargers, the Colts... it was a fantastic season.
Worst: 2020
For obvious reasons.

Re: Herschel has found some rivals...
Has anyone mentioned the John Hadl trade yet? The Packers gave the Rams a 1, 2, and 3 in '75 and a 1 and 2 in 76. He never made the playoffs in Green Bay, to say the least.

Re: 2023 Predictions
What makes you think the Bucs will repeat? We've gotten much worse from last year's 8-9 team, while the other teams have added Bijan Robinson, Derek Carr, and Bryce Young. I am more inclined to think we'll be one of the worst teams in the NFL. Baker Mayfield. I think he's underrated, and at the mom...

2023 Predictions
Anyone care to make predictions for 2023? I do this every year and have gotten it right once in the last 15 years that I can remember, mostly because I always pick the Packers or my friends' team the Steelers instead of just going chalk with Patriots or Chiefs. Here's what I've got for this year: 20...

Re: Obscure trivia
They were called Divisions prior to 1949. Unless I am missing something I do not see a real change after the change of the name so it seems more a matter of semantics to me. Well, for the sake of the question, what I was referring to was divisions since 1967. So, the correct answer is not four like...

Re: Obscure trivia
Colts and Bears were both in the NFL's western division from something like 1954-69; Steelers and Cowboys were both in the eastern division from 1960-69. No, those were conferences, not divisions. The first true divisions came in 1967 with the introduction of the Capital, Century, Central, and Coas...
