The NFL Season 2018-2019

The Saints aren't unbeatable. Dallas did it, and it wasn't a fluke. But then Dallas beat Philly also. Twice. So you can't say that was a fluke either. Don't think anyone is especially afraid of the Eagles. But it's also true that any team still at the dance could go all the way. Personally, I like the Chargers this year.

Hottest T-shirt in Philly...

The Saints may have beaten Philly last year but for the Minnesota Miracle. Haven't seen the spread but one assumes they're a heavy underdog. They did a good job sneaking into the playoffs and getting past the first round after one of the worst seasons a reigning Superbowl champ has had in years. Most Eagles fans will be satisfied with the progress so far.
The Colts and Chargers are the hot teams, but Superbowl quality defenses have a way of shutting down hot teams. That said the Patriots look very beatable. On the NFC I think the Cowboys have the best chance to upset this week.

The cool 'back-story' for the Saints-Eagles game is that Drew Brees and Nick Foles are both graduates of Westlake High School in Austin, TX.

Drew led Westlake to their only State Championship in 1996. Foles led the team to the Championship in 2006, but didn't win. Ultimately, though, Nick broke Drew's high school records for both passing yards and touchdowns.

Go Saints!!

Not much of a game in KC !!
31-13
KC defense was Chicago Bears good , for a defensive team known to be one of the worst in the league.
Luck seemed all out of sorts , getting every other pass blocked, getting knocked down, sacked , stripped, dropped passes , etc...
I hope the cowboys game is more competitive.

Barely, so far.

It looks like the Rams are building up a head of steam.
I wouldn't mind seeing them win a Super Bowl this year.

I hope the Beagles/Aints game isn't anything like the Cheaters and the Chargers.
I watched one of the Chargers blow a tackle, just give totally up and then when his other team mates came into the screen he decided to maybe try and get in on the action but nothing too strenuous.
Luckily, I drifted off into a well deserved power nap about 5 seconds afterwards.

Nick Foles walk into a bar... to watch the Patriots play

Congrats to the Saints and their fans...now go and win it all!

The Iggles came out looking great but the Saints woke up and did it.

Well, as much as would have liked for my Dallas team to gone further, the NFC has it's two best teams playing for their conference championship. Hope they have a clean game with no injuries and go on to win it all.

I think either a Rams or Saints vs Chiefs SB would be epic

Hey LA Charger fans (all 40 of you), get used to it!
