Re: Two games involving winless teams

0-6 Bucs met the 0-5 Seahawks in Week 6 of the 1976 season (still 14 game season so just before midway point)...but that wasn't entirely unexpected that this game would have both teams coming in winless

Re: Jimmy G, most fragile QB ever?

One guy I remember who was always always hurt seemingly was Chris Chandler. He was pretty good when he could get on the field. Never had a single season where he made more than 14 regular season starts

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

My opinion: no way he retires if they get Caleb. Even if they don’t, I think they'll be in position to draft Maye or Penix at least, so he'll more than likely try to ride it out with one last QB. If that doesn't work, he'll probably still get the wins record after 3 or so years and be ready to walk...

Re: Notable 5-0 starts (then losing sixth game)

Jets actually started 5-0 in 2004 before losing a tough 13-7 game in New England to the undefeated Patriots who improved to 6-0.

Patriots would lose to Pittsburgh the following week

How will Belichick's final chapter be written?

It's kind of funny watching this and hearing younger football fans commenting how this is the first time in their lives they can remember the Patriots being bad. It's almost hard for them to compute. For the rest of us of course the Patriots of up until 1992 were not known as one of the NFL's premie...

And we can finally put this one to bed

The New York Jets have beaten the Philadelphia Eagles.

I have my closure for the Eric Allen game.

Re: 2023 season, Week 1

as it usually is in the Saleh era. All he does is talk and the team continuously comes out unprepared and underachieves. I think you're being a little hard on Robert Saleh. It's hard to win consistently in the N.F.L. w/o solid QB play. Just ask Bill Belichick. Maybe I am, but I don't think he shoul...

Favorite football scenes in non football movies

I don't mean movies that use footage from actual games, rather scenes that try to recreate something from a pro or college game or practice. I find being a football nerd I tend to pick these apart rather ferociously and missed opportunities and inaccuracies irritate me far more than I should :D I re...

Re: 2023 Obituaries

Awful. Strangely I was just watching that old NFL films clip where Francis talks about taking some Raider player on a flight in his private plane and then (jokingly) kicking the door open and threatening to boot him out.

Re: 2023 season, Week 1

Okay, I'm done. Zach Wilson should not be allowed to play again for the Jets unless in garbage time. He is still at the embarrassment level. He has to make significant improvements to merely be called "bad." Broadway Joe agrees with you 100%: https://sports.yahoo.com/joe-namath-calls-for-...
