Re: The 282nd touchdown-free game (MIN-LV 12/10/23)

For those who watched this game, can you please explain the 14-yard punt at the end of the game? I'm thinking there was a botched snap of an attempted field goal. Direct snap to Joseph out of FG formation. Planned 'pooch' punt, wasn't executed all that well. Thanks. I still haven't watched it. Hope...

Re: Missing Miles Sanders

something I wrote to some coworkers this week- The Eagles don’t have the same zest as they did in 2022. They didn’t properly replace some guys they lost off the defense. The 2022 defense was better with T.J. Edwards, Marcus Epps, and C.J. Gardner-Johnson. The offense is a little off too. Jalen Hurts...

The 282nd touchdown-free game (MIN-LV 12/10/23)

Today's Vikings-Raiders game was the first 3-0 NFL game since the 2007 Dolphins-Steelers game which was played in a quagmire. For those who watched this game, can you please explain the 14-yard punt at the end of the game? I'm thinking there was a botched snap of an attempted field goal. 3-7-LV 31 (...

Re: 104th season, Week 13 recap

The Packers are hot as well. Theyre lucky pass interference wasnt called at the end of the Chiefs game. Detroit needs to beat Chicago and have their first double digit win season since 2014. It probably evened out. Mahomes had that baiting move by the sideline and the officials fell for it. Then th...

Re: 'Bye-'bye, Pac-12

It is time to change the names of some of these conferences.

The Big 10 has 16 or 20 or 23 teams or something now.

The Big 12 has 13 or 15 or 16 or 19 teams.

The ACC will have multiple schools in it that are not near the Atlantic coast.

Kareem Jackson

He was suspended this season for rough play. Say whatever you want about that. I am pretty sure he will serve another one after the launching helmet shot he took to Josh Dobbs' chest tonight. Like the Jets commitment to 1920s-in-mud-game offense, Jackson is committed to what is considered rough play...

This is the answer but the NFL doesn't want to look like they took an idea from a minor league. Look at how long it took the NFL to adopt the 2-point conversion.

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

Jerod Mayo is probably the person with the best odds of replacing Belichick. Good luck to whoever follows Belichick.

Re: It's been a long time since I have been all that impressed with any one team in the NFL......but

Despite Purdy's decidedly mediocre play today the 49ers had that game in hand until the refs made a particularly egregious call on a third and long for "unsportsmanlike conduct" on a impossible-to-avoid hit on a receiver running a crossing pattern (who ran at the defender). I don't want t...
