Re: 2023/24 Super Bowl

Oh, I'm not advocating for some kind of best-of series for the NFL. For one thing, the playoffs would go on until Easter. I don't think there'd be anybody standing at the end. That said, if would be interesting to imagine the '68 Jets and Colts playing a 7-game series. I wonder how that would turn ...

200th overall

Purdy was drafted later than Starr

There were fewer teams back then

Re: How will Belichick's final chapter be written?

So what JWL? You would rather have Daboll than take a chance on Belichick? The Giants finished better than they started but it wasnt much better than the Patriots season. For much of the year they werent even averaging 14 points per game. My comment was made purely because the Giants job is not ope...

Re: How will Belichick's final chapter be written?

Unless the Redskins or Seahawks hire Belichick, his final chapter may stop as of 2024. Maybe he wanted too much control in Atlanta but its still surprising that the Falcons, Chargers or Giants havent gotten him? Ben Johnson seems to be the frontrunner in Washington but would the Hawks go for Vrabel...

Re: Divisional Playoff Weekend

I still believe Vegas wants upsets but if KC . . . This again? Las Vegas wants this. The networks want that. I want the Jets to win a Super Bowl. Las Vegas and the networks would probably like the other New York City metro region team to win occasionally too but the Jets have missed the playoffs ev...

Re: In 15 years, what does the HOF look like for RB's?

Dalvin Cook gets his chance to show the Ravens what he can do. If he has a good postseason, it could help him wherever he ends up next year. I still feel like Nick Chubb, both could get to 10,000 rushing yards. As someone who has seen all of Dalvin Cook's touches this season I'd be stunned if he sh...

Though I want Houston to win, feel the Networks want Flacco and the Browns in Baltimore
What do you mean by that? Are you insinuating some stuff is rigged?

Re: Worst MVP race EVER

For John Turney, Nick Webster or other defensive observers. How good is rookie Kobie Turner for the Rams? It helps playing next to HOFer Aaron Donald but has he pulled his weight getting nine sacks or just cleaning up Donald's pressures? Still not bad for a rookie, also listed as NT ... Does he ent...

Re: George Kittle HOF Future?

If Mark Andrews can rebound from injuries and Kelce rides off into marriage with Swift while retiring in the future--a big if and when--Andrews and Kittle could battle for All-Pro honors for awhile ... three great players. There is also Sam LaPorta and Brock Bowers who may end up contending for All...
