    I am guessing that Cincy will be fortifying their Oline?  Looking for another WR considering OBJ is out most likely w that ACL tear.

    It will be a tough go to get back to the SB next year for Cincy.  I think Buffalo will be in next year.
    Cincy definitely needs to prioritize upgrading their O-line.
    They are good at WR though. OBJ was a Ram (and now an injured free agent).
    Cincy has 3 solid to great WR's in Chase, Higgins and Boyd.
    Brain fart on OBJ...  That was meant for the rams, lol.

    I still like the Bills in next year unless Chase and Burrow light the league up like they might.

    That may be one hell of a prop bet in the beginning of the year.
    I feel confident in the Bills, but so tough to pick a winner in the AFC.  I think it takes/will take a significant amount of luck for whoever comes out.  Cincinnati were the lucky ones this year.
    Yeah between the Bills, KC, Cincy and you know that the Pats aren't going anywhere.  Then there's the Titans, Raiders and Chargers.  Broncos if they can steal a QB from somewhere.
    Don't forget the uninjured Ravens.  Browns could be good, Colts... its a nightmare.  
    Ravens QB is good.  Browns, no.  

    If Trevor Lawerence can get good coaching maybe his team?  If not then he is a Sam Darnold/Daniel Jones type high DP that went nowhere...

    I sure hope Burrow doesn’t suffer the fate of Dan Marino….but that could happen.

    I do like them to control the AFC Central for awhile.

    ummm you do know cincy is afc north , no?
    Cut the guy a break.  He's just showing his age.  I long for the AFC Central days... Houston Oilers and no such thing as the Ravens (goddam team stealers).  

    hey. they took a very bad team and made them good. THEN you got another chance and just what did you do with it. fucked it up. as usual. and back to the same bad team.
    It was the same team, including Ozzy as the GM.  It was not a very bad team.  The Browns made the playoffs in 94.  

    In 99, the Browns got screwed because the league thought it did too much to help the Jags and Panthers as expansion teams, so they dialed back the assistance.  But they went too far.  Now since then, yes poorly managed.  But the fact of the matter is that Baltimore is a bunch of team stealing assholes who whined for years about the Colts and then did the exact same thing to Cleveland.  The league then offered the the city the Buccaneers but Cleveland said no way.  We won't take another team.  We may suck, but we have integrity. 
    And ya had to have a "dog pound" again...

    Send them to the Bills mafia so they can use them in their sex toys rather than throw those on the field.
    Cures the problem of fans throwing shit on the field in 2 Lake Erie cities.

    So much for the "go woke, go broke" disingenuous bullshit. I think ratings were up all year too.

    And a lot of those hypocrites who said they swore off the NFL the last few years were among the ones criticizing the halftime show, that they were watching (lol), last night.

    You watch football for the plays and players.  I'm pretty sure the majority doesn't give a shit about wokeness and enjoy the game(s).

    the sooner everyone just admits and submits to the fact that the NFL has us and controls us all, the better-off they are.  

    I dont see it going anywhere for quite awhile.  If they can truly breach the global market, it could really keep the insane growth pattern up for another quarter/half century.

    How is it working in good ol London?  I know people go to the games and have no idea what is happening.

    The time difference sucks for England if they are to get more games.  Perfect for me as I can have football on at 9 am in the morning.  I could have Fooseball on for like 15 hours straight!

    I love the morning games.  

    I think it is OK in London.  Big crowds and they seem to be engaged in the action.  I believe they applied to host a Superbowl coming up...

    Ultimately, they really 'need' a home team for things to get to that next level.  Seeing different teams all the time, often the irrelevant Jaguars, normally inconsequential games doesn't really move the needle all that much.  If they had a home team and actual marketable players, it could be a different story.  

    They are now probing into Germany too starting this year.

    I don't know.  I feel like football is a little bit of a dying sport.  I know it's doing fine, but I mean at teh junior levels.  More and more parents are keeping their kids from playing.  I didn't let my son play.

    My buddy runs a youth team in Crenshaw in LA and it is only getting bigger.

    I also think youth football is adapting a bit from strapping on full equipment to doing more of a recreational/flag football type of activity.  In high school, lots of athletes seem to still be filtering onto the High School programs, at least locally.  As long as NCAA Football continues to be big money, there should be enough top-end high school athletes chasing those scholarship opportunities.

    I don’t see it happening on a large scale for a long time. I can’t imagine players are really happy about flying 10 hours each way. They’d have to form enough home teams to sustain a league over there with a few inter league exposition games to get started. Couldn’t do it with just 2 or 3 teams that have to fly halfway around the world almost every week to play, would need an instant league start-up.

    That’s not an excuse. You see someone fall you make sure they are ok.  You sure as shit don’t turn your back and walk away,  you would also think a guy whose wife had cancer would be a bit more compassionate.

    Just another crazy Minnesotan. We're all so proud of her inner racist. Can't imagine the inner dialogue she had to hide all those years on the sideline.

    Sure it is. Not like he left her there to die. There are dozens of people around and his wife was right there. What’s he going to do besides potentially make it worse? Especially now knowing her injuries.
