  1. I like the Seattle Stadium a lot. Roofed over most of the seats except for the playing field and end zones. Great Lines with the cantilevered upper deck which puts spectators closer to the field. Seats 65K+. Loud as hell. Big concourses that are shut to the weather. Not much end zone seating. If Open air is the plan. I hope it's similar.
  2. I was in upper deck at that end and saw that kick just die. First we thought it was a trick play...then looked at the flags at that end of the Stadium. I've never seen a ball just punched out of the air by the wind like that.
  3. I picked Raiders, as I'm sick of the Pats. They do have a little magic going right now so no slam dunk. With Pats it's the Bill Bellyache factor. We out talent them at the QB slot but he's a HOF coach and it would be humiliating to lose to them. Although I'd be ecstatic if we beat them in playoffs. I'll take my chance with the Raiders.
  4. I was thinking watching Matt Ryan yesterday, that a team that has a lot of pieces but missing a QB should try to acquire him. Dum Penalty aside he is still very good. A team like the Broncos. Everyone wondering about Rogers, Deshaun J, Russel Wilson or trying to draft a stud might do just as well with Ryan.
  5. As an aging boomer, I well remember how tough the Vikings were in home December and playoff games in the Met before moving into domes They have had no identity ever since. I’d prefer the ability to play outdoors in winter A Seattle styled Stadium would work for me. Roof over all stands, not much end zone seating. Uncovered field, covered seats and big concourses
  6. RIP Coach. Great coach and I loved the way he handled himself with class. Was outmatched in the 3 SBs he appeared in. Loved his upset of Vikings in NBC Championship game. The first FB game I ever watched beginning to end was the Ice Bowl, where he threw a TD Pass.
  7. Garden Gnome. Best gift ever !!! The wings came out at halftime.
  8. Turned on Bears / Seahawks out of boredom with Steelers Chiefs with Direct TV package. See snow and assumed it was at Soldier Field. Snow in Seattle though. Surprised
  9. Total focus. Very few dumb penalties. Love the big days from Motor and Isiah
  10. Downstate. Stuck with Jests and Giants as usual. Curse of living in the NYC Metro I do have access to a DTV account though thankfully.
  11. Let's try this in 1Q then. Last Sundays 1Q qualifies as a bad start in my book. I'd love to get the ball first and score.
  12. It didn't work so he's gonna get heat. Listening to Russo on Sirius, the word is Harbaughs getting killed today on Baltimore Sports talk radio. My .02: He didn't want to go into OT with Huntley facing Rogers and took his chances. Figured law of averages said it was likely he'd pull off as they missed against Pitt and he was 2 for 6. I feel like they ran the right play vs Pitt and Lamar blew it. Last night, he had a QB with the hot hand and called wrong play. That's why these guys get paid what they do.
  13. Needed the W. Caught a break with the kicker out. Hoping the Offense got a little mojo back. Panthers have a nasty D and we were able to put up points and move the ball. Lets go to Foxboro and beat those guys
  14. Remember Josh and our inconsistent offense put up big points vs this Saints D Thanksgiving Go into Foxboro fearless next week. please
  15. Huntley can play. He’ll turn up somewhere after Ravens swallow hard and pay LaMarr.
  16. Wow !!! Figured they'd get it this time figuring he missed it against Pitt. Thank You Jim Harbaugh
  17. Hence my meme earlier which started a little debate here. I agree. No doubt we've been hosed, but a league wide conspiracy I can't buy into. Tough enough for 2 people to keep a secret let alone the # of people that would have to be looped in to make a grand yet secret conspiracy work.
  18. All due respect.....you don't know me. Know nothing about me, my background, likes. dislikes, etc. Discourse is great but generalizations and labels ("People like you", "This is what afflicts the majority of you")...not so much. I respect your passion for making your point as evidenced by your many posts here. However, I've got larger concerns than if the NFL is rigged so I no longer let it make me lose sleep. Peace
  19. It's a joke. Relax big fella. "People like you..." Really? In the end, Football is entertainment. Nothing more. Don't get yourself all worked up.
