Also wondering when the London Playoff games will start.

Re: Disparity - 2023 Panthers

Special teams often account for big desparities in yardage vs. points. (Either offense or defense). You mentioned defensive scores given up but also return yards is probably a factor. Too lazy to look it up right now but I'm willing to bet the Panthers are near last in the league in punt/kickoff ret...

Re: Incredible officiating moment in Packers-Vikings

I saw that play too and was amazed at the non call. Sure, the Vikings player may have began the "process" of the tackle but had an ample second or so to let up after the fair catch signal. Also it's entirely possible that he didn't see the fair catch signal because his head was sort of dow...

Correct!
Ohhhh! Tricky! I was racking my brain on this one thinking of non championship 13-1 and 15-1 teams that this question would apply to and didn't even think of 1982.

question about the Rozelle rule

I was just talking with my father in law about the history of NFL free agency and the Rozelle rule came up. Many of us know that, in that era, should a team sign a free agent, the teams involved would need to negotiate fair compensation and, if they couldn't, the commissioner would decide for them. ...

Re: Modern Candidates HOF Preliminary List

only one player has gotten to Canton as a modern when getting to his first finals in Y18 or after, and that was Sam Mills.

Re: 104th season, Week 13 recap

I completely agree. Matter of fact a comment I posted last night went something along the lines of: "They need to win the S.B. this year because I don't know when they'll be better prepared to do so than they seem to be right now." Agreed. They have a bunch of key players who's contracts ...

Re: 104th season, Week 12 preview
