Preposterous call and I don't care what the broadcast says. How is he supposed to stop?
-
That was not even a particularly big hit or helmet to ball. That thing just popped right out.
-
That's a killer. Philly is moving on.
-
If analytics are saying go for 2 and pass up the chance go up 9 with a PAT, analytics are broken.
-
Agreed. Too early to worry about tying the game.

Actually they don't because I specifically said Super Bowls but I didn't expect anyone to get so worked up about it. Since I also wasn't alive in the 60s I don't care all that much about those either. Here are the league standings from 1930. https://www.nfl.com/standings/league/1930/REG I bet that was a real barnburner. The Yankees and the Steam Roller were tough that year... I think it's fine to hang 13-time champions in the Hall of Fame and atrium and whatever and celebrate that history. I also think it's very silly to equate what Kansas City or New England has done lately to anything GB ever has, because they haven't. The Packers have 2 Super Bowl wins and 3 appearances since 1970. It's better than the majority of the league but nobody in their right mind would put them on a pedestal with what NE did, which has been embarrass the league for the last 20 years at the height of the sport's popularity. >The game is the easiest it's ever been. Yeah. OK. Lmao. I am not sure AJ Dillon would get tackled in 1930.
-
Yeah...something about playing the Frankford Yellow Jackets and giving up 10 points all year doesn't have the same shine to it as winning 6 times in the Super Bowl era and all of them after 2000 for me.
-
Silver lining with KC is that I'd rather see them get 8 Super Bowls than have the Pats/Brady sit on top of that mountain forever.
-
I am not going to split hairs over who wins the Super Bowl at this point, just ecstatic it isn't the douches in Detroit or the Vikings. Lions are getting closer to squandering their window. The Vikings have a potential QB problem. I have a lot of family in Philly so I am ok with them. Washington is innocuous. Buffalo would be fun to see, and KC is boring but also doesn't really bother me.
-
That's a good thing. As I've gotten older I've come to appreciate memories that can't be replicated.
-
He knew. I'm pretty certain those were tears for the end of his time with Bob, not for a heartbreaking loss.
-
I think that Uecker most likely viewed his entire life as an incredible privilege and I doubt he tied the Brewers winning the World Series to some pinnacle he had to reach. I am sure he would have loved to see it, but I don't think he thought they owed it to him or that we was less fulfilled without it - that is for the fans to do. It's as shocking as a 90 y/o passing can be. It's tough to imagine a season without his voice.

Saleh is getting HC interviews so may not be an option. Not sure why he'd get one as he is an awful HC, but I don't know if I want another one of MLF's friends coming in, and what exactly has he done other than being a name in the news a lot?
-
I don't think he will miss an entire season. I don't even think it's out of the question he starts the season, though unlikely. He may start on IR due to the new rules or almost for sure start on the PUP. But he has a lot of incentive to get back on the field financially. At his price tag, I don't think it's worth it for the Packers to do a settlement. I'd rather gamble on him being able to help out in some way. The kind of talent he is, is worth risking for a mid-season infusion. Jaire - different story. I would just like to unload him for a bag of potatoes.
-
Who the hell said he was crap? He's not that great of a passer. He doesn't do any of the volume the elite QBs do and has a 2,000 yard RB. He's the second or third best running QB in the league, but his passing leaves plenty to be desired. He's 17th in the league in yards per completion - probably has a lot to do with his expected completion percentage. -
I think the majority would take Hurts based on perception on and not any kind of reality. He has played in a Super Bowl and has been a name a bit longer. Digging in, he hasn't been very good. He did pretty much nothing on Sunday. I would personally also take Love for the exact same reason, there's a chance his best is ahead of him. I think Hurts is more "this is what you get" at this point. Next year is a big year for Love. They would likely make changes to improve the offense, I personally think he was hurt most of the season too. Will next year be closer to this year or last year?
-
Watson should be back as they don't have a choice anyway with the injury. He won't be ready most likely by September, but ACLs aren't what they used to be and he costs nothing. At best, he's a deep threat they can bring in during the middle of the season and give a boost to the offense, and maybe try and earn a second contract. All teams will have the same hesitancy to sign him, so he may have a future as a role player if he can prove next year that he can rehab this thing. But he is low-risk, high-reward, for one season anyway. Offensively, they need depth on the OL (seems like everyone always needs this) and a WR IMO. Defensively, MLB has been a problem on this roster for 20 years. It's time for a drastic measure to address that.
-
They overachieved this year but it's similar to Alex Smith in KC. You have to make the move and hope McCarthy can play. You can't pay two starting QBs. I agree though that I think they regress, I never thought they were that great this year, yes they won 14 games but they were eeking a lot of them out and the eye test just wasn't very convincing. They have the names on paper, but Philly/Det when healthy were a lot more intimidating. I am not sure what team is going to pay big money for Darnold though. I don't think he's going to get a huge contract.
-
Jerry's approach to this really made no sense. I think he decided to fire McCarthy once word got out that McCarthy was even entertaining the Bears. That hurt Jerry because it meant to him that McCarthy wasn't all-in, when in reality he was doing what any sane person would do and making sure he had a job next season. Jerry then pretends he's hung up on length of contract so they can "mutually part ways." If the negotiations were really stalled, they should have known that weeks ago and had a larger pool of candidates to look at, now they're out anyone who's been hired but more importantly they lost the chance to interview anyone from KC or DET.
-
I hope they deal Alexander. They have already adjusted to playing without him and the results were OK. Bring in a pass rusher and that would help more than getting Alexander. He's never healthy and he's a malcontent.
-
They won't keep Darnold. I think they'd be crazy to do that. You drafted a guy in the top 10. Only way it happens is if nobody is really interested in Darnold and he comes in way less than expected, or they tag him.
-
The Lions are a douchey team. All the bravado, yelling in guy's faces after the game. I get they are this lovable loser team from a blue collar town or whatever, but I'm over it. They can lose another 50 years as far as I'm concerned. The Chiefs are benign. Another title won't hurt anything. It's boring, but I don't have any ill will. Buffalo would be my favorite. The Eagles, as I said, didn't care until that video went viral. Rams or Commanders are fine but they won't win. Ravens, really anyone in the AFC is fine.
-
Well I predicted in like week 9 the Vikings wouldn't make the playoffs, was wrong, but they may as well not have, especially after winning 14 games. Imagine 14-3 and not getting a home game. Then getting crushed. It's terrible and delicious all at once.
-
If they go out quietly tonight he's gone, which IMO is the correct call. They could tag him as an insurance policy, but that has drawbacks too. As a Packers fan, I would love them to commit to him. He's not going to do anything long term.
-
I'm almost certain Detroit is winning the NFC, which I don't like, but I guess we're down to Minnesota and Detroit being 2/5 outcomes so Minnesota losing is good. I was indifferent about the Eagles until the viral douchebag from yesterday harassing that poor girl. I'd like to see anyone in the AFC take it this year. Buffalo is my top choice. The Rams or Commanders would be fine but I don't see it happening.
