Re: George Kittle HOF Future?

Hopefully voters can see past the volume stats. In this papermetrics era that might not matter as much in some cases. Kittle's could be one of those cases. Having a SB ring would obviously help too. If he gets to Ozzie Newsome career total levels (around two years if he hangs around mostly healthy)...

Re: Super Wild Card Weekend

Ugly loss, will McCarthy lose his job? Not that I really care but I'd be shocked if J.J. keeps McCarthy after THAT debacle. The Packers defense was too sloppy at the end of the game. They better get their focus back in a hurry ... Eh - they just took it easy since they had an insurmountable lead. H...

Re: Super Wild Card Weekend

Ha! I saw a stat near the end of the Packers BLOWOUT win about the N.F.C. entry based in TX having the most wins ( 36 !) of any team, ever , over a three year span (the last three years) without a conference championship appearance to show for it. As my wife put it to me just a few moments ago: &quo...

Re: 2023 - 24 season first round playoff schedule

I'm not willing to go out on a limb to make any predictions for the first round. I think every single game could go either way (even MIA @ K.C.).

I have my hopes, though:

HOU over CLE
K.C. over MIA
G.B. over DAL
DET over the LAR
BUF over PIT, and
PHI over T.B.

Re: 2023 Predictions

Going back over my predictions from pre-season I see where I had a few "whiffs." AFC : East: New York Jets: Aaron Rodgers is an obvious upgrade at QB despite his age and the Jets seem to be a lot of people's pick to go all the way this year but I'm not willing to go out on that limb. At le...

Re: Three titans gone

I got this from Yahoo! sports:

Stat of the day: Since 2000, there have been 24 Super Bowls and 24 college football title games. Belichick, Saban and Carroll have coached in 22 of those games (46%) and won 15 of them (31%).

Re: NFLPA All-Pro team

I like the rules set up for voting in this one. I'm surprised it took 'em so long to allow voting on this by the players.

From what I've read they're going to promote Jerod Mayo to H.C. We'll see!

Three titans gone

Bill Belichick - 9 S.B. appearances (as H.C.), 6 Lombardis. Pete Carroll - a national championship at the college level and two S.B. appearances and 1 Lombardi Trophy. Nick Saban - 7 national championships at the collegiate level. All three out of a job within the span of (approximately) 24 hours. C...
