Teams deny stuff all the time, that doesn't mean it.   Yes, political correctness to bring candidates in that have no business being candidates. 


That's not political correctness.  But whatever...

I'd be perfectly fine with the Packers losing Sunday night.  I don't need to invest anymore emotional energy in this team.

I thought I would be mad after Thursday night's loss.  I wasn't.  (It helps that my students won a state football title at the same time!) That showed me me how I feel about this season right now.

Knock on Nagy has been (and still should be) that he can script really well, but then he seems to float away from it. Some games it hasn’t mattered when they’ve beat up early on teams, but it definitely has come up against the Pack and last night. I think eventually Nagy needs the offseason to figure this out, I think he’s too caught up in being a head coach right now to really self evaluate.

For someone with more football knowledge than me, like Dish or others...

does it appear that Mitch is making a lot more calls/changes/audibles at the line as compared to previous weeks?

Definitely. I specifically remember thinking during the game that he was working with a lot more freedom and discretion at the line. He didn’t play particularly well, especially given his performance the week before. But it appears that he’s gained some trust and responsibility from Nagy, which is welcomed.

105 points. Plus 7 turnovers.

Can the chiefs, Rams, Patriots, saints just play a round robin group for the super bowl?

Typed the exact same thing and then it updated me that there was a new post.

The Alboa Bar in Mexico City that ESPN kept showing?

It was actually a Buffalo Wild Wings.

Trent Dilfer doesn’t like fun.

Very John Smoltz of him. I can see why he thought that was awful football - he's accustomed to being dragged to wins by his defenses.

I don't entirely disagree with him.  The over-protection of offensive players, and over allowance of pick routes has contributed to this pass-pass-pass style of offense.  It reminds me of the aspects of college football that I don't like.

Yes, it is exciting to watch high scoring affairs, but it is too close to arena football.

And no matter how hard they try to make the game safer for offensive players, Alex Smith still happens.

Wow. The Lions are the poster boys for NFL ineptitude.

Finally get the lead, so the next play is Personal Foul. Couple plays later, another Personal Foul. Almost like watching a Sitcom.

Eddie Jackson probably Pace’s best draft pick, having a stud year.

Nowhere near the reputation of Dix coming out of Alabama, but a way better player.

A mouth guard flying out onto the field as a receiver gets hit trying to catch the ball over the middle is probably a decent indication that there was a hit to a defenseless receiver/head.

Jackson had broken his leg his final year and fell in the draft because of it. Funny though because bones heal, there wasn’t really any long term concern health wise. Could end up as the All Pro safety.
