Good for ACLS too... Dirt and grass give but turf doesn't. I feel like this was reported somewhere else before, bit more as a rumor.

Tua found the NFL so easy he didn't need to really grind

Makes sense, because the longer the overhang the more pressure is put on the supports, since they're only supported on one side

The NFL championship game was played the last few days of December going back to the late 1950's "the Greatest game ever played" NFL Championship game between the Giants and Colts was played on December 28, 1958. The "Ice Bowl" was played December 31 and it was -13 degrees in Green Bay. Not as late as games are now, but certainly not fall weather. So for the past 65+years winter weather has been a part of pro football.

As crazy as it sounds I like Belichick much more than Brady. AB actually had a point: it's always BRADY won BRADY did this BRADY did that when it's a team game. Bill had to build and manage an entire team. Brady just has to take care of himself.

I think that's it. Bill is usually right and he actually is pretty witty. Guys from his coaching tree just seem straight up mean.

From the sound of it, Flores, like a lot of guys from the Belichick barren coaching tree, can't seem to figure out the mix. Belichick isn't really overtly nasty, rude or a jerk to his players any more than any other coach. Sure, he's gruff and grumpy and short sometimes, but he doesn't act like a total ass the way a lot of his assistants who get jobs as HC seem to. IMO they are trying to imitate him and in doing so go overboard. With Bill, it's work, followed by work, with some more work. No time for goofing around, laughing, or feeling joy. But you don't hear stories about him disparaging players. Mostly guys complain that nothing is ever good enough in NE for Bill and his staff.

I've noticed that you can tell who Audacy thinks is listening by the person who does the "an Audacy station" thing every top and bottom of the hour. On that note, the girl on WGR sounds like she's annoyed to say it and only recorded her part to shut the company up after being told "come on... say it! say it! Aren't you going to say it? It's just 3 words..."

Arians is a good coach (not great IMO) and 100% not a HOFer in my book. How great does it feel to not be part of this mix and instead feel set for the foreseeable future? We got a GM, HC, and QB, all of whom are pretty young for their positions.

Texans might want Flores, but why would he want to go there? UNLESS Watson agrees to play there (assuming he can) due to Flores coming in.

Does every coach with a bunch of wins and a ring deserve to be in the HOF? Reid and Belichick are locks. They could be #1 and #2 overall in HC wins all-time when they retire. Tomlin I could certainly see. 1 ring and another appearance. Never a losing season. By the time he calls it quits he'll be a HOFer I think. But Payton and Carroll? Both great coaches but Payton has had a lot more sustained success. Carroll really had a great handful of years early with Seattle and has been mediocre to decent ever since. That's not HOF worthy, IMO. Sean Payton has a much better chance because he's still pretty young and will probably do a lot more winning.

I mocked the hire when it happened, but actually I think he did a pretty good job and the Texans were a tough out down the stretch. Sort of like the Lions in that the record might not be great but the roster is not that talented but they fight hard and showed some promise.

Bills have one of the best uniforms in the league, IMO. Red, white, and blue. America's team!

Jordan Poyer is on Pat Macafee right now... he's hilarious to listen to. It'll be up on Youtube later on too if you can't see it now.

It's a compelling offer! I'll get back to you by Monday... I love Joe Burrow. Dude is fun to watch and I love the swagger! It definitely would be, especially if there were plenty of closeups of Brady's angry face on the sidelines, a thrown tablet, and some hushed tones about "maybe this is it for Brady after this humiliating beatdown... you hate to see it, Al" That kind of stuff!

Maybe Beane wants to get him under contract for next season as well.

Brady has 1 legitimate Super Bowl win. GOAT my ass

Today it's 35 degrees, dreary, and tiny bit drizzly. No wind. Absolutely perfect football weather for January! It actually feels warm out today with no wind compared to what we've had lately. What a difference a couple days makes...

can NFL stadiums have a sort of dugout or covered area that could be somewhat heated with those outdoor deck heaters for players on the sidelines? Maybe just the home side? I'm sure there's a rule against it or it would have been done already.

WHY would anyone complain about this? It's a feel good thing for the fans, which is sort of the point of sports!

I hear you, and it would be amazing. But I just can't do another Brady Super Bowl. It's enough already. The sooner the Buccaneers lose the better. Then the playoffs are just fun.

Inspired by this thread, I've been watching a ton of Thurman highlights on YouTube Imagine Thurman on this team! If anyone here was too young to see him play, check out some of his old games. There's a reason they called him the Thurmanator. Dude was close to unstoppable. In fact, just about the only defense for him was us not giving him the ball on a given play. A game like Saturday night? Patriots wouldn't have a prayer. Thurman would pile up 150+ all purpose yards no problem, and maybe more.

He might be having issues finding a place to live... have you checked Zillow around here?

Love that thumbnail! 4 QBs shouting and looking nuts and Rodgers looking like he just had some scotch and wants to talk about "holistic medicine"

So no Borg, then.
