Couldn't wait for this thread because this game is a huge opportunity. In order for the Patriots to get #1 seed in the AFC, and to win their division, they've got to beat the Bills at least once. They can lose this game and win the rematch and still end up the top overall seed (especially with...

Welp I figure let's get this out of the way. Both teams coming off of a loss, Vegas is going to heavily favor the Bucs on this one. However I think we have a real shot here, because I think Brady will want to get the "has beaten all 32 teams" chip which Brees and Manning both got, and knows...

We have multiple players who earned 3 rings with the Patriots in the 2014, 2016, and 2018 seasons. Some of them may still be active, and still have a chance to increase their ring count and / or overall candidacy, but nonetheless it seemed like a fine time to review and speculate. I'll break...

Of the 10 oldest QBs as of 2 years ago, 6 have retired: Derek Anderson, Philip Rivers, Matt Cassel, Matt Schaub, Eli Manning, and Drew Brees. https://www.sportscasting.com/10-of-the-oldest-quarterbacks-in-the-nfl-in-2019/ Remaining, you have: Tom Brady (44), Ben Roethlisberger (39), Ryan...

Ok I'm giving up, I'm totally blind. How do you change the posts per page and whether posts in a thread are sorted by date ascending or descending? I miss having the 100 newest posts in a thread starting at me when clicking on a thread

Didn't see one already up. On the slate we have: 1:00 Games ATL@TB: Influences playoff seeding. If the Bucs win, they face the winner of the NFC East guaranteed. If they lose, they may face NO, GB, or SEA in the Wild Card Round. DAL@NYG: Influences playoff picture. If WAS loses to PHI...

Sean Peyton's comments that there are normally only 10-11 relevant teams in football any given year have garnered a lot of discussion, and I think most of us would agree with that sentiment. It's true that more are in the playoffs, and even more contend for a playoff spot, and any team which...

Sorry I haven't been around much, got a new job and been working what feels like 24/7. The NFL came out with their QBs for the all time 100 list, and I personally feel they made some errors in their judgements. Here's what we have: Tom Brady Joe Montana Otto Graham Peyton Manning Sammy Baugh...

Sorry for the overly clickbaity thread title, just a thought provoker / conversation starter. Let's be real, the olympics has some pretty dumb stuff in it already, and it has moved far from just displays of raw strength (the javelin, shotput, etc) to some pretty esoteric displays of skill (I...

Didn't see an existing thread. If I'm blind mods feel free to merge. The Bills vs the Eagles is one I'm keenly watching, it'll be interesting to see how they fare. Great punt by the Bills after a near disaster. I want the Bills to lose, but I also want them to win, because 1) F the Eagles...

https://boston.cbslocal.com/2019/07/24/tom-brady-age-42-season-history-of-nfl-quarterbacks-at-age/ Combining what the records and stats are of all QBs at the age of 42 (in all of NFL history), according to this article, you end up with the following: Warren Vinny Doug Moon Testaverde Floutie...

In this thread I figure we can discuss what we're making for dinner, maybe you'll get some meal ideas, if something sounds delicious ask for the recipe, or if you've got something which is solid gold feel free to just share the recipe, and regardless we can all make each other hungry :toast...

We all already know this, I'm just updating the knowledge regarding the fallacy that the Patriots have the easiest path to the Playoffs, year after year. There are 3 factors to consider: 1) Scheduling. The argument is the Pats somehow have the easiest schedule in the NFL, year after year. Is...

The latest strategy to try to diminish Tom Brady is to talk about how wins, championships, and so forth, aren't "individual stats", they're "team stats". The argument is typically used when talking about how you should pay more attention to yards, completions, touchdowns, whatever. Frankly...

The "Mount Rushmore" of NFL coaches is pretty well established, I think it would be hard to argue against the 4 greatest coaches of all time being Bill Belichick, George Halas, Paul Brown, and Vince Lombardi, though folks may quibble regarding their order. If someone has an argument for why...

Don't look it up online. Try to see how many you can guess, I'll post the answers the day after tomorrow at around the same time as this. 1. Who are the top 10 active coaches in the NFL, in terms of regular season wins? 2. Who are the top 10 active coaches in the NFL, in terms of regular...

Over 3 years ago now, Max Kellerman predicted Brady would fall off a cliff. He's a clickbait scammer playing the part of a moron and is most infamous for being dead wrong, which is exactly what he wants and hopes for. Yet ironically, his initial argument was not totally off base. Look at...

So I saw this article when it was written, 3 years ago. It was after Belichick had won his 4th Super Bowl as a head coach, and there was the start of a lot of the GOAT talk for him and Brady, much less for him than for Brady. Though I disagree with much of the methodology, arguments, and...

I dissected the data that I could find regarding QBs, their cap hits, and so forth in the era of free agency, to see if the arguments I've seen flying around that the Seahawks were removing themselves from contention with the new salary for Wilson held merit. Here's what I found: In the last...
