Re: Super Bowl LIX Thread

Thats funny ... I never said a damn thing about hating everything about the NFL. If I did, I wouldnt be watching or gambling on it. I didnt say it was completely rigged either, though I feel the officials, coaches and teams can affect outcomes. Hell, a team doesnt even get in trouble for not report...

Re: Super Bowl LIX Thread

Bills fans I have talked to, felt Mahomes dogged this game. They felt he deliberately allowed the Eagles rush to get to him by scrambling around or having nervous feet from the pocket. They remembered what the Bucs had done to him as well in 2021, while killing the Bills defense in both years. It w...

Re: Do the Chiefs deserve to be considered a dynasty

Imagine if a non-traded Haason Riddick for the Eagles had played in this current SB? I am not sure how much, if at all, Reddick would have helped. He was not effective with the Jets and if he played for the Eagles this season that would have meant less playing time for players who played well for t...

Re: 2024 NFL Playoff Predictions

Commanders kept it going, JWL ... huge win and my prediction of Lions-Steelers SB before the season, bit the dust. If Detroit loses their coordinators, will they meet expectations next year? Not saying he won't get a job, but Glenn is going to have a bit of a tougher interview process with some tea...

Re: 2024 NFL Playoff Predictions

At least to a certain extent, Darnold lived up to his draft status for one season and the pressure of these last two games had to overwhelm him. Losing hurts, but he has to feel keyed up for what might have been, and I feel he will try to come back to the team. If the Vikes bring him back and he ca...

Re: Clark Kent Wild Card Weekend

I know Mayfield had another great season JameisBrownston, but sometimes you never know with him. Once again in the playoffs, he has another huge turnover that helps decide the game. Other than that fumble though, he played well and had his best year in football. Fans were hoping the team might face...

Re: lame streaks

As a Bucs fan, I promise we would've been outraged if Bowles wouldn't give Mike his record and his money on that last play. That man is going to be our first ever offensive HOFer and we want him to retire here. He turned down a fat stack from the Chiefs to stay, loyalty has to go both ways. Always ...

Re: lame streaks

Ones were there was actual action even if set up like the Mike Evans catch in garbage time are one thing. Keeping an iron man streak alive by playing one snap and leaving is a little much.

lame streaks

When a guy takes one snap to keep a streak going you have to admit it is as lame as flopping. Cal Ripken Jr. never took the field in the top half of the first inning of a home game and then took himself out after the first pitch. Eli Manning played in the games during his long streak. The NFL doesn'...

Had the Redskins won the game they would have been the 1 seed in the NFC playoffs. Because they lost the ...
