The down side is Brady got the Bucs into the PO; hopefully he'll fall seriously hard or have to miss the PO games. But he's probably laughing while sticking pins in his Belichick voodoo doll. Now I have to root for the Washington Football Team, and the Giants to keep the girls out of the PO. That's like choosing between soaking in a septic tank or a cesspool.
I was reading the pre-game info for Dolphins vs. Bills tomorrow. The Dolphins are a pretty good team already, way ahead of what was expected of them. Then I saw the haul they have coming in the draft this year, courtesy of the Texans. Wow. The Dolphins could be really good in a couple of years if they hit on those picks. The Texans.....I don't know how they recover. That is way up there with the worst trades of all time. Reminds me of when the Bills made a trade to get Sammy Watkins in the draft. Cost them two number one picks. It took years to rebuild after that bout of stupidity.
Can't wait to see how things go tomorrow vs the Packers. Being a Bears fan, I feel (absolutely, positively know) we're gonna get our asses kicked, but, one can only hope. All I'm hoping for is to Mitch look terrible enough that he will NOT be invited back next year. And, hopefully take the GM with him.
Not NFL, but Tom "Hot Property" Hermann was fired by the Univ of Texas. Good. Unless the Titans are resting several starters, they should easily crush the Texans. Or they'll just run the ball and very slowly but surely win the game. I'm pulling for the Giants (just scored a TD but missed the PAT) over the girls. Yeah, I know, don't get my hopes up. And Washington over Philadelphia (extra protection if the Giants win). And I'm not getting my hopes up.
The Dallas cowgirls are out of the playoffs. ELIMINATED. The officials actually got the fumble recovery right...but that won't stop the whineyass girls' fans from bitching long and loud. Now I need to check the scores of the other early games.
I've always been a fan of momentum over a great record going into the PO. The Bills have both. They drowned the Dolphins (clever, eh) today. Big time. The downside, if you've had enough of Brady, is the Bucs have great momentum. Brady appears to be peaking at the right time. Did the Steelers intentionally half-ass today, or are they continuing to play lousy football?
I think you're on to something and I'm thinking about the Chiefs. They are currently losing to the Chargers, while resting their best players. They really haven't played so hot over the last month. Is it really a benefit for them to have to sit for a week of not playing, with the crummy way they are ending the season?
Da Bears. Backing into the playoffs, courtesy of the LA Lambs. One and done. As usual. If not for a dropped pass, it would have been 42-16. Go Browns!
Alex Smith should be the comeback player of the year. what the fuck was philly thinking? add the chargers to the latest to fire their head coach
I read a short story about Dalton, his comments make it sound as though he's going to be looking for a starting opportunity elsewhere. But if jackass Jerry mishandles signing Prescott....?...
Great idea. If I was Brian Daboll (Bills OC) I'd be very excited to take over as head coach for the Chargers. The Jets, not so much.
I've read a few Ranking the NFL Teams Needing a Head Coach articles. The Chargers rank either one or two out of six. The Texans rank fourth because lack of draft picks means fewer affordable rookie deal contracts which causes salary cap issues because veterans, even mediocre ones, are more expensive. Will the NFL punish the Eagles for intentionally losing to the Politically Corrects? I doubt it.
The nfl wont do shit, but the players just might. I know the eagles players were not happy. and he might want to watch his back when he is out ion public. urban myers name is all over for a HC job, lets say he goes to Jax, and they have the #1 pick. would he choose Fields over Lawrence because of his Ohio State connection? will Rivers retire? IF he does will the Colts starting QB be their draft pick this year in Jacob Eason? He fits the offense better than Jacoby. Or will Stafford end up in Indy? Will Watt be a Texan next year? SOOOOOO many things will happen
