Re: 2025 NFL Season Wks 6 - 9
Considering how weak the North is and how relatively easy the Ravens' schedule now becomes, it's not at all hard to imagine them bouncing back from 1-5 to win their division.

Re: "Teams of Destiny" you believed in and were disappointed by
The 2003 Packers definitely had that look, starting with the memorable win at Oakland after Favre's dad died. Then came the Nate Poole miracle in Arizona that gave them the division, then the Al Harris pick-six to win the wild card playoff against Seattle. All that was dashed on the rocks thanks to ...

Re: Something dumb that you remember about watching the NFL
It's worthwhile to learn more about the "Native American Guardians Association," especially when people are trying to use its words to prop up an argument in favor of the name Redskins . It's a lobbying group founded less than a decade ago for the express purpose of "protecting" ...

Re: Are there individual stats for blocked kicks?
I do know that during the one season they had Ted Hendricks, the Packers set an NFL record with 12 blocked kicks, seven of them by Hendricks. I believe he blocked 25 in all during his career.

Re: 1998
I am not just speaking about 1998 though. Every team someone on this forum doesn't like was 'over rated" or "had an easy schedule" even when that schedule was above average in difficulty. According to some people every NFL champion sucked. It is quite tiresome how some people think i...

Re: Teams that couldn’t win in certain places
Detroit also lost 24 straight at Green Bay (including Milwaukee) between 1992 and 2014.

Re: 2025 NFL season predictions
J.J. McCarthy has played eight quarters and has looked positively atrocious in seven of them. Now operating with a patchwork offensive line, it could be a long season for him.

Re: 1981
I agree, and I might expand that period to five years by including 1979. The year before we had what at the time was the best Super Bowl ever played, between the two best teams of the decade. By comparison, 1979 was sort of blah, and the next few years after seemed to lack compelling characters and ...
