I got you beat by 7 years. 😃 That was pre-cable, I lived in the country outside a really small town, and my parents were pretty strict, so I didn't see anything that wasn't fit for broadcast tv until I was old enough to go to the movies with my friends (without my dad having to drop me off). I can't remember the first R movie that I saw, but the first X rated movie that I saw was Midnight Cowboy in 1969 when I was in college (the movie theater in my home town would never have shown an X rated movie. It was a different world back then.).

Don't confuse the people with facts! LOL. If EVER there was a perfect example of how it's better for a team to be lucky than good, it's the Eagles Super Bowl win, starting with giving control of personnel to Howie Roseman after they fired Chip Kelly in 2015. All the "heroes" of that Super Bowl season didn't age particularly well. Carson Wentz regressed from where he was in 2017. Nick Foles just fell back to his level as a career backup QB. Neither Doug Pedersen nor Frank Reich turned out to be the geniuses they appeared to be in February, 2018. BTW, before the Reid won his first SB, the rap on him was that he couldn't win big games, especially in the playoffs.

I couldn't decide if this gem deserved a vomit, an eyeroll or a haha, so I did all three: 🤮 🙄 🤣

Some other owner might fire Belichick but not Bob Kraft.

The Colts already have a pretty good OL as Zach Moss' success in Indy shows. Quenton Nelson is a 3 time All Pro and 4 time Pro Bowler at LG. Their other OLers are competent.

That's seems to be their thinking ... if Tua can stay healthy behind their OL.

The Fins have cap issues, and adding Claypool isn't going to help enough to win now to justify however little he costs the Fins against the cap. They also put Armstead on IR to make room for Claypool. If the Fins do find an OLer -- or Armstead heals up and comes back in four games -- what do they do with Claypool? It's just a trade to make a trade for Miami.

Somebody in power in the Fins organization is obsessed with hoarding WRs.

If the Fins are truly in win-now mode, they'd be hustling to find better OLers and/or LBS and DBs not adding an extraneous WR.

Of course they care. Otherwise they wouldn't be complaining about her in one breath and then denying that they care about her in the next.

If y'all really don't care about Taylor Swift, why does mention of her prompt you to post that you don't "give two craps" about her like the bell prompted Pavlov's dogs to salivate?

RIP Russ Francis. Condolences to his family.

It was unanimous!

Such an insightful observation! Dorsey was certainly lacking in creativity against the Fishies. You are being much too kind to Dick Jauron. He would have benched Allen for a Tentative Trent Edwards clone because Allen wants to win rather than being satisfied with not losing by too much.

The NFL is entertainment, and the game was entertaining. Lots of passing early on, some great defensive plays late. Drama. You want to talk about an unwatchable game, consider the Bills-Browns game from 2009 which resulted in a 6-3 win for the Browns on a FG after a muffed punt. The Browns passed for fewer than 75 yards. The difference is that fourteen years ago there were fewer non-Sunday afternoon games, so that kind of game would have only been shown in the local markets. With fewer options on Sundays, more games are sent to larger areas.

The Rams/Colts game featured a 23 point comeback by the Colts to get the team to OT and then a walk off TD by rookie sensation Puka Nacua. The Broncos came back from 21 points down to win by 3 despite Fields having a career game. The Commanders recovered from their butt-whooping by the Bills last week to take the Eagles to OT where the Eagles won on a long FG. The Vikings overcame from behind late to win over the Panthers. The Raiders almost came back on the Chargers. The Cards hung with the much more talented Niners until late in the game. The Jests came back from 17 points down to tie the game at 20 late in the game. That's a good number of OT, one score or competitive games for a Sunday. Of course, I was partial to the 48-20 thumping the Bills put on the Fish but then I have never forgiven the Carpies for Zero for the Seventies. Your opinion doesn't represent the opinions of all NFL fans, particular female football fans. The Chargers don't need a great HC to be a dangerous team. A competent one would be good enough.

Bernard is much more noticeable than Edmunds was, not only because he always seems to be around the ball, but also because he always seems to talking to/encouraging his teammates between and/or at the end of plays.

IIRC, one of the commentators said yesterday that the Bengals haven't scored a TD in the first half. ☹️

By the time Burrow gets over his calf injury, he may have more. He really got roughed up yesterday's game. I just saw some of the sacks and pressures, and they were just awful. There was one which was ruled an incomplete pass in which a defender came in on Burrow apparently unblocked and just spun him around like a rag doll as he was trying to throw the ball. The ball went one way toward the sideline and Burrow went the other, landing pretty hard. I was somewhat surprised there wasn't a flag but the play was clean, just so hard and fast and Burrow was helpless.

Here's a Fish fan's (DZimmer000) take on the game to enjoy:

In the NFL, I would disagree. In the AFC, probably. Of course, Cincy, PIttsburgh, and Jax -- all teams that seemed likely to be contenders -- seem to have taken steps backwards early in the season.

FYI: "Past results do not guarantee future performance".

FYI: Since you aren't Terry Pegula, your rant is moot. You sound like a petulant adolescent ... or an embittered septuagenarian ... chasing after the "next big thing". I hated the McDermott hire in 2017. He reminded me of too much of Dick Jauron (whom, if you don't know from my previous posts about this cretin, is my most loathed Bills HC ever) which suggested the Bills were going to continue their decade plus of mediocrity into the future. Well, my initial take was wrong, and I am a proud McDermott "apologist". IMO, he's among the top five HCs currently in the NFL, behind only Belichick, Reid, and Tomlin.
