Campbell should fire Aaron Glenn in Detroit, that defence is dying. I'm surprised the niners have a chance at 1st but they need to handle the cards and then the more difficult ravens. I don’t know think the Cowboys can be more dangerous on Offence and the Philly secondary is really bad. I’d fear the Cowboys over the Eagles at this point.

They're easily the best team in the league besides. The NFC playoffs are going to be interesting this year with the Eagles, Cowboys, and 49ers. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Were the refs supposed to pick up the flag that they threw at the very beginning of the play and announce that there is no longer any penalty because it negated a cool play by the offending team/player? And how many times has he benefited from an equally offside by the defense, giving him a free play. Easy call, the right call, even though cost me fantasy points. Never been a big fan of his, and this isn't helping to change my mind. My boss loves him though, so I can't trash him too loudly 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have some flash but even in that philly game, the eagles had a chance to come back. Plus mike mccarthy is awful in the postseason. I'm still backing the eagles to regroup. I'd love the niners to get top spot but lots of injuries last game, so rather they rest a few against arizona. The ravens game will be a big test as they still aren't getting enough pressure and i think lamar will have a big game. Still shocked that glenn isn't fired by the lions. Also for MVP, i'd rather mccaffrey over purdy. You take him out and the offence sputters.

What the Chiefs and their fans seem to be ignoring, is the fact that had the pass to Kelce fallen incomplete, nobody would be saying a thing about how "embarrassing" the call was, or how they'd "never seen it called before".....They just would have lined up and taken another shot at it.... Peyton Manning had the best idea, IMO: Blow it dead, just like you do on a False Start. That way, we'd never know what might have happened and Pat Mahomes could stop pretending he was some kind of victim..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although, not blowing those ones dead improves offense, so maybe the league won't like it. And, maybe the reason you don't see it called all that often is that most players take the time to make sure they are lined up properly.

That's why Mahomes' whining bugs me so much.

Toney was lined up so far past the line that Kelce looks like he went a yard back from him which means he is less than a yard behind the line which means he's not part of the backfield and ineligible to go downfield and catch! Would've made for a hell of a TD review if they didn't flag it. Background: Eligible receiver are either those are the end of the line or backfield people at least a yard back from the line of scrimmage. Kelce is on the bottom here, it would be close.

I've always said rape accusations that turn out to be false need to face the same or similar consequences as actual rape. Otherwise you get situations like this. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think they're going to trade him to another team or just flat out fire him? I think it would be much classier to just put out a press release at the end of the season saying that it's a mutual parting and let him choose his next team. He's earned that right. Although getting a couple of firsts for him would be tough to pass up. Especially since Kraft isn't getting any younger and wouldn't want the rest of his twilight years to be spent upset at having a crappy team. I'm also kind of curious about how many Bostoners will jump off of the bandwagon if they continue to suck year after year. That organization was primed to leave Boston before Kraft saved the franchise and turned them into winners and got people to come to the games again.

RupertKBD Posted December 13, 2023 Share Posted December 13, 2023 Looks like we get Saturday football, now that the college regular season is done. Three games on the sked: MIN-CIN, PIT-IND, DEN-DET Pretty much every game has playoff ramifications at this point, but I'm most interested in the Detroit - Denver game. Can the Broncos keep rolling? Can the Lions rebound after that embarrassing loss to the Bears? Also, looks like @Pears 's Bengals are catching the Vikes at the perfect time.... Another tough match up for my Bills against the Cowboys on Sunday, but at least they're not playing in Dallas. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also MVP shouldn’t be Purdy when the 49ers lost a couple weapons on offence he strung together a couple bad outings. He’s sheltered by a really good offence. At this point MVP race should be between Tyreek Hill or McCarffrey with a very slim outside chance of Dak if the Cowboys can pull off the impossible and win out the rest of the year. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm glad we have Purdy, he's had a great season and a big upgrade over jimmy g, kaepernick etc but until he leads a comeback i'll keep him out of the top tier. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IMO, the Music City Miracle never happens if Flutie starts that game. I'd also give Pete Carroll a Dis Honorable Mention for not handing the ball off to Marshawn Lynch....
