Re: Least favorite season your team had?
I’m going to rule out last-place finishes… which means only one from the Packers since I started following football in 1995. I’m also going to rule out losing seasons in general… those are also few, and the easiest ones to pick. I’d then say the 2000 Packers. While they finished with a winning reco...

Re: 2024 NFL Predictions
Take Mahomes off the Chiefs, this is a 5-6 win team at best

Re: 1991 Giants had Parcells and all staff had returned at least one more year?
This has been a bit discussed before. Tuna said that he assumed in the '87 off-season that his team would have motivated themselves to repeat. Obviously not the case; and '87 was messed up for the obvious reasons anyway. Safe enough, had he been fully motivated to repeat in '91, and had all his sta...

Re: Was Norv Turner a better OC than Dave Wannstedt a DC, vice-versa?
Norv was better
He made a starless Washington 99 offense look star-studded (2nd in scoring behind the GSOT Rams) and even made Mike Nolan’s 49ers seem respectable offensively in 2006

Re: Least favorite season your team had?
The 1997-1999 Chicago Bears. I have an encyclopedic knowledge of Bears teams before that and after that...those three seasons swirl around in my head like a primordial soup of "suck." I can remember things FROM those seasons but very little about what year they actually occurred in or seq...

Re: Least favorite season your team had?
I wanted, at the time, to see Wannstedt's Bears do well. I liked their '94 playoff run with '95 being better, statistically at least, but no dice. Sort-of like the 1990 non -playoff 9-7 Steelers compared to the '89 playoff 9-7 Steelers. My only late-'90s Bears memory was the second game of the '98 ...

Re: 2024 NFL Predictions
Kansas City is the least impressive 2-0 team Granted last year we saw them have an underwhelming regular season only to turn it on in the playoffs. I don’t remember if they felt this underwhelming at the start of the season though. KC is two plays from 0-2 They're not 'finding ways to win' they are...

Re: 1989 NFL season discussion
You’re not wrong when you said 1989 was the least suspenseful of the decade When SF came back in the 4th quarter at Philly in week 3, it felt like you may as well have just handed them the SB, and we were waiting 4 months for the inevitable. Even in 1984, the 49ers didn’t seem like a stone cold SB l...
