Democrats and their allies in the legacy media spent the last few weeks hyperventilating about the possibility of flipping a deep-red congressional seat in Tennessee, hoping to send a shockwave through the Republican Party ahead of the midterms and take that momentum to victory. They truly believed they could ***** victory in a district President Donald Trump carried by 22 points just last year. But reality came crashing down on them Tuesday night when Decision Desk HQ projected Matt Van Epps as the winner of the special election for Tennessee’s 7th congressional district around 9:10 PM ET. The Republican combat veteran defeated socialist Democrat state Rep. Aftyn Behn, a 36-year-old who the left hoped would be the face of their new southern strategy. So much for that plan. In fairness, this race should never have been close. The seat became vacant earlier in 2025 after Rep. Mark Green retired to pursue a job in the private sector, leaving a void in a district classified as R+10. Normally, Republicans would sleepwalk through an election here. Yet, Democrats poured massive resources into this contest, sensing an opportunity to chip away at the razor-thin GOP House majority and validate their narrative of a building blue wave. House Majority PAC, which has deep ties to House Democratic leaders, invested $1 million in television and digital ads last month. Other left-wing groups, including Tennessee Rise PA, Planned Parenthood Votes, and Indivisible Action, also threw their weight and wallets behind Behn. Money certainly flowed in Behn’s direction. She held a fundraising advantage over Van Epps heading into the final stretch, raising $1.2 million through November 12. That total included a staggering $1 million raised just since October 1. She entered the final weeks with $522,000 cash on hand, while Van Epps raised $993,000 and had $231,000 available. Democrats clearly thought they could buy this seat. They were wrong. https://pjmedia.com/matt-margolis/2025/12/02/democrats-choke-in-tennessee-special-election-n4946651#google_vignette

and probably all of that is the dumb luck of does Gabe (or Keon) win a couple 1-1s at the right time randomly. I’m not expecting it regularly but do they randomly spin a defender on a 3rd and 7 and get a 40 yard TD turning a possible punt into 7? Kincaid being healthy will also be absolutely huge in the calculation.

Well, she can'tt do much worse than tariffs which 63% of Americans think are worsening costs. pretty much any of these poll issues help explain the R shrinkage. https://www.ipsos.com/en-us/ABC-News-Washington-Post-Ipsos-Poll-October-2025

It’s that kinda dedication to the cause that makes this a beautiful place😎

you beat the bad teams by A LOT

LOL .

Hopefully he’s the head coach of some college team this time next year.

Wildcard is Josh's mindset. Hopefully Playoff Josh locks in, like he usually does and banishes some of the screwball decision-making he's had recently.

As long as we have the good luck we’ve had all season we should e fine

I think the #1 key will be coaching/gameplan i think the #2 key will be health I think the #3 key will be turnovers

WASHINGTON — Conservative Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas got a lawyer for the New Jersey Attorney General’s Office to admit Tuesday it mounted a “fishing expedition” against a pro-life organization without receiving specific complaints about the group. Thomas drilled down on the investigation of First Choice Women’s Resource Centers during oral arguments in a case challenging a subpoena the organization received from AG Matthew Platkin’s office. “You had no basis to think that they were deceiving any of their contributors?” Thomas asked Chief Counsel Sundeep Iyer. “We certainly had complaints about crisis pregnancy centers,” Iyer deflected before admitting none specifically applied to First Choice, a faith-based nonprofit with five facilities across the Garden State that discourages women from terminating their pregnancies. “I think we had a more than ample basis to initiate this,” he added, citing concerns about misleading donors, unlicensed medical practices, violation of patient privacy, and “potentially misleading or untrue medical statements.” “Well, that just seems a burdensome way to find out whether someone has a confusing website,” jabbed Thomas. https://nypost.com/2025/12/02/us-news/scotus-justice-clarence-thomas-forces-nj-attorney-to-admit-state-targeted-pro-life-group-with-probe/

Behn would have been better on my wallet?

Yes. I can see him coming back once or twice a year to attend games. Keeping a home here year round just for those few days…probably not.

The Biden Administration okayed Special Counsel Jack Smith's subpoenaing congressional phone records knowing the subpoenas were unconstitutional, emails released last week revealed. That same trove of documents also established the illegality of the nondisclosure orders issued by the courts to prevent the telecommunication providers from alerted the members of Congress of the unconstitutional seizure of their toll records. Last week, as the nation turned its attention ahead to travel and turkey, Sen. Chuck Grassley, R-Iowa, released another two dozen documents related to the Arctic Frost investigation into President Donald Trump and Special Counsel Jack Smith’s subpoenaing of congressional phone records. A May 17, 2023 email from the Biden Administration’s Department of Justice to Smith’s team proves explosive, with the Public Integrity Section “concur[ring] in the subpoenas for toll records for the identified Members of Congress.” This email may represent the first public evidence that the Biden Administration’s DOJ knew the special counsel’s office planned to subpoena congressional Republicans. But the scandal is even greater because in “concurring” in Smith’s use of subpoenas to target communications of members of Congress, the DOJ’s Public Integrity Section expressly acknowledged the unconstitutionality of the proposed course of action. https://thefederalist.com/2025/12/01/new-docs-reveal-jack-smith-intentionally-violated-congressional-republicans-constitutional-rights/

I think the d is middle of the pack. If we had Ed and Hoecht, I think we’d be top 8ish. we’re currently 2nd to last in epa vs the run and 4th best against the pass. Given up the most rushing TD while tied for 2nd least. Passing TDs. Our sack % is actually 12th and ahead of the Rams, which shocked me. I love watching their defense.

Just for you, a little more detailed clip from Steelers Depot

Or Paul Seymour doing the opposite. Hey, it worked. And it worked better as the game progressed and the Steelers D got tired. Belichick pulled the heavy sets on us a couple times and had success against McD's defense that prioritized speed and quickness over raw strength. The NFL is now all about speed on defense (McD was a bit ahead of his time), and this offense can have success against a lot of teams. But will it work in the playoffs? Probably not.

Good time to bring up the fan police on here after Pats and Falcons defeats when you point out that those would end up being massively costly - even back in early October. They cant wait to tell you its an overreaction and season starts after Thanksgiving, calm down etc. Well it turns out pissing away easy games early on does indeed count in your final record and ultimate seeding. Path is not impossible, but its definitely harder than it ought to have been based on the schedule we had this year (look at next year for example, way harder schedule)(also comically we could end up with Texans, Ravens and 49ers/Seahawks/Rams as 2nd place teams - so there really wont be any schedule advantage over the 1st place Pats either)

our offense is by design because of our limiting tools. kincaid is bust because of availability. if he's not able to play this weekend i will be entirely disappointed.

It worked in NYC

RE: 1996 Patriots- Offense was dynamic, defense was average so I get the comparison. The coaching staff was lightyears ahead of ours. if only McDermot was part of the BeliCheat tree we would be illegally filling and working on our 3rd Superbowl Oh to dream!!

Prices went up and the economy went south after Trump took over. But your team won. Good for you. Bad for your wallet and quality of life.

The primary competition in WC - not going to get into tiebreakers because i think its too early. LAC - 8-4 - PHI, @KC, @DAL, HOU, @DEN - Absolutely brutal schedule - 10-7? Maybe? IND - 8-4 - @JAX, @SEA, SF, JAX, @HOU - Another tough slate - Also 10-7. JAX - 8-4 - IND, NYJ, @DEN, @IND, Tenn - Couple easy home games, 3 tough games - 11-6 best case which would probably take the division HOU - 7-5 - @KC, ARI, LVR, @LAC, IND - Couple easier games at home, but 3 tough games - 10-7 best case - indy week 18 might be win and in KC - 6-6 -HOU, LAC, @TEN, DEN, @LVR - Easy road games, and 3 teams they can beat at home - I'd guess 10-7 and if the loss is to denver they're very much in the mix. BAL - 6-6 - PIT, @CIN, NE, @GB, @PIT - 3 wins would get them to 9-8 PIT - 6-6 - @BAL, MIA, @DET, @CLE, BAL - Could see them splitting and both finishing 9-8, another interesting week 18 scenario. Based on this - Buffalo is probably the 5 seed if they go 3-2 the rest of the way. It will depend on who wins the AFC South - but if there's an 11-6 team, the other 2 are probably 10-7. I don't see any of the other 3 going on a 5-0 run to get to 11 wins, and we have tiebreakers over all of them anyway. So I think the ideal scenario would be BAL losing @CIN, and PIT losing @DET and @BAL. Week 18 game would be for the division as they'd both finish 9-8 and Pittsburgh would take it on divisional record. I would rather play a team we handily beat than a team that trucked us in week 1 - injured lamar is still more dynamic than rodgers.

Obviously Number one is the correct answer. A mistake that the Democrat party will continue to make.
