NFL 2023/24

Stick a fork in em, the Steelers are done. A pitiful performance against one of the lowest ranked teams in the league featuring their backup QB shredding the D for more points than they scored in the last three games combined. And with any other team in the league Coach Tomlin would be gone. But, he has another year on his contract and the Rooneys never pay anyone not to either coach or play. The only option is a trade, which with the derth of head coaching in the league could happen. The key factor is there's a new GM there, Omar Kahn, who may want his own man in the position and the long time policy might be broken. Tomlin is a good coach, sometimes it's just that the message has become stale. I know it has for George Pickens and Di'Vonte Johnson.

I think Trubisky is done in this league. What a bust.

I've stated here more than once, McDermott is NOT a head coach. I'm beginning to think Pegula isn't much of an owner either.

On a positive note, one of my cigar buds bet a 5k parlay on the Pats last nite, walked away with 24k, not a bad pay day !

Bit of NFL humor.

Dang Bills won, which means McDermott sticking around.
Anyone watch the Vikings Raiders snoozefest?

Terrible performance by the Eagles last night, in every facet of the game. The team personnel is actually much better than last year's team, but they obviously cannot recover from the loss of both defensive and offensive coordinators. Prescott had hours in the pocket unmolested.

WTH is going on with the Minnesota game? A hockey score? You'd say a 3-0 baseball game was boring. Oh my.

Can the Bills make a playoff run? They looked like at least an image of the former team. And Toney may have played his last down for KC after screwing up the greatest play in football this year, and arguably losing the game for KC. Mahomes went ballistic. A sports guy on MSNBC said seeing Mahomes go off after the game was like seeing the Dali Llama bitch out a waiter.

So the Cowboys beat the Iggles and we have 3 teams at 10-3 in the NFC. Going to be fun to see who will come out on top over the next 4 games.

Go Iggles!!

Eagles have not looked good at all in the last 4 games. While they(on paper) have a patsi schedule the rest of the way they could easily drop a game(or two ??)

Had to laugh at Mahonnes crying like a baby after the off sides call spoiled their victory. On the flip side had the Chief's won perhaps that would have been McDermott's exit card, oh well, maybe next weekend ?

The highlights from that 3-0 game were mesmerizing.

I'm a Chiefs fan..they lost because of their own failures, not because of the Ref and the offsides..Mahommes better get used to losing..this team is no where as good as the past few seasons.

His receivers keep dropping passes.

At first blush I thought the call must be agregious because it never gets called and was on the greatest play of the year. Watching PFT Live Mike Florio and Chris Sims clearly showed Toney was way, way offside and never checked with the line judge like you see all receivers doing. Just stupidity on Toney's part. But... if no flag that play very likely wins the game, despite the Chief's less than dominate play.

A retired NFL ref was interviewed and pointed out that while it was rarely called in the past, so far this year it has been called 11 times. Also to add to that, 'all' NFL teams were made aware of the decision to not just give an arbitrary 'warning' on such at the beginning of the season. So, 'sour grapes' for Mahonnes and the Chiefs, nothing more .......

great last month of the regular season comin up... greatest unscripted soap opera on tv

steelers balloon was bound to burst, they were never that good, had just gutted out some close wins early, now, reality sets in

iggles have lost coordinators but i think the defense has had some serious injuries behind the front line, makes a huge difference in 3rd down stops -- then, also, eagles aren't surprising anyone anymore, everybody brings their a+ game, and this takes a toll game after game

fish showed what they are last night... pretty good but can't quite deliver in crunch time, defense is a mess under pressure

chiefs definitely showing some serious flaws... we will see if their championship pedigree can overcome in this last month and into post season

watch the browns and bengals... they could do some damage

Bills with another big win..McDermott ain't going nowhere.
Cowgirls face Miami on the road next week..if I were a betting man I'd bet on the fins.
