The Suns have yet to win one. Three times they reached the finals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I like the new coach a lot. He might be their McDermott. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mushypeaches Posted July 21, 2021 Share Posted July 21, 2021 It's our turn when we frigging earn it - when we have the optimal combination of skill, luck, coaching and aggressiveness. And not a moment before then We are close with the Bills, and this could very well be their year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YoloinOhio Posted July 21, 2021 Share Posted July 21, 2021 I really should’ve been more specific when I told that genie I wished for the Bucks to win a football and basketball championship this year. Lesson learned. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sold on Lamar with the Ravens. LAC could be a dark horse team in the mix. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crazy times we live in when the Bills and Browns are both mentioned as co favorites along with the chiefs to come out of the AFC. Both fan bases have suffered enough, should be fun to watch this play out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At some point those players become the problem not allowing progress to be made. You cannot have players who have such a negative vibe from losing and bad attitudes effecting the other young players. Eichel, Reinhart and Risto need to go so they can save Dahlin and Cozens. Edited July 21, 2021 by Big Turk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Allen runs as well but the big difference is he can beat teams with his arm as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are brilliantly coached, they have a great front office and they have a really strong roster around Lamar. Him not being a great passer has been 31-10. They have upgraded as wide receiver too. I think their path is narrower than some of the others (I feel the same about Tennessee) because they have a clear QB limitation and so less margin for error, but they have a shot at being in the Superbowl. I think it is those 5 in the AFC. KC, Buffalo, Cleveland and then a bit more of an outside shot Baltimore and Tennessee. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When they run into well coached defenses that know how to stop it they can't generate much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
