dollars 2 donuts

How do you do that, though, 9? How do you sit there, see this team at 0-2, see this other team at 2-0, both are playoff teams from the previous year, and say “yep, that team in the hole is better because blah, blah, blah.”?

The only reason why I am fine with it, GBF, is regardless of their struggles...man...it just seems like they might explode on offense anytime. ...not for sure, but just seems that way. EDIT: BTW, can we please have the conversation that the Eagles don't belong in the top 6?!

Yeah, but never really "seemed" like it, or passed the smell test. 13-4, and yet with the 23 season done, head to head on neutral turf, I am putting a few teams (at the time) I believe would be capable of beating them. KC, Buffalo, Detroit, San Fran, and maybe...maybe even the Pack and Rams.

I won't argue with that, but yeah as we've all essentially stated before they get SO MUCH love and we're not sure why. 9 seems a little low, but I get where you are coming from.

MJS, I honestly don’t think that is the first time we’ve gotten some goofy power rankings from San Francisco.

(I’ll post here as I go and as I catch them releasing, but please feel free to add and comment throughout the thread.)

Yes, they are still great, but something is going on right now and it isn't just CMC being out.

Headlines on my feed “Falcons stun Eagles.” Yeah, not really.

Lincoln enjoyed “Our American Cousin” at Ford’s Theatre more than anyone’s enjoying Our Atlanta Cousins at Lincoln Field.

Holy mackerel, Cousins.

To be clear again, everyone, we’ve beaten the chiefs before. Repeatedly in their own barn. We were one injury riddled game away from taking the lead this decade. We have yet to beat the Bengals. I’m fine with the Bengals losing. Yes, they normally start slow. However, here’s hoping the trend of losses continues. sick of hearing about those guys.

Agreed, Keno, I thought they played well last week.

Thank you, 50. I’m actually hoping the Chiefs win, too. I’m done with hearing about the Bengals. At least the Chiefs are champions. The Bengals get rivers of praise and all they’ve been is in decline since their Super Bowl appearance, which everyone ignores.

i hear ya, but we have some injuries over that time, too.

That’s it. That’s the whole post. Go Bills.

I have always used that phrase my whole life, and now because of you I remember Matthau saying it and I can't unhear him in my head. 🤣 EDIT: obviously, I also use jeepers a lot.
