the 1st gets attention for obvious reasons, but man... that 4th one hurts They 100% should have won the 4th. If you watch that documentary it makes it even more clear. Dallas players were like "well, they are finally going to get one" because Aikman was concussed badly and couldn't understand play calls, the Bills were dominating the game (but not the score). We freaking had that 4th one. up 13-7, driving... then one fumble happened and undid it all. BTW, those kinds of fumbles NEVER happen anymore. Top RBs used to fumble back then, not often, but often compared to today.

Reid was in the top 10 all-time in HC wins before Mahomes was even drafted. Uncrowned GOAT. That Tampa/KC Super Bowl is a bummer, because the rings chase could be 6-4 right now but that goes both ways. Reid will retire with every record, except SB rings because the AFC is just too good for them to keep getting there enough times in the next 5-6 years. Mahomes will likely tie Brady or get close (IMO) but he has 15+ years left to do that. Reid has 5-6 probably.

NFL considering adopting XFL kickoff rules
TheFunPolice replied to PromoTheRobot's topic in The Stadium Wall
I kind of like this kickoff. Makes the return an actual play and hopefully prevents full speed collisions -
in their defense, in the NFC South 6-11 has a chance to win the division.

I think it's so against his natural instincts that he's doing what he thinks he should do to be more aggressive. That fake punt was a disaster, but maybe it does show that he is at least trying to evolve. I have high hopes that he is the type of coach who will allow himself to grow and get better. This offseason and next season's offense will tell the tale. He did say in his end of the season presser that he believes that you win by passing the ball. We'll see if he really meant it soon by what the team does in free agency and the draft! He has to commit to doing what needs to be done to avoid losing over and over in the playoffs.

Love it! And Cook, Allen and Henry all stay fresher for the stretch run Give the king 10 touches a game, max, unless circumstances warrant it and ramp up in late December/early January so he's near full strength when the games are biggest In the old days guys would push back on that, but these days younger players understand and appreciate load management a lot more The goal is 20 carries for the king to ice the AFC Title Game in Orchard Park once we're up multiple scores
-
yeah, not a great decision there for sure That's the weird thing about McDermott that I think he needs to work on. His decisions to take a risk sometimes come out of nowhere and seem so counter to what he is all about. Like he's forcing it a little bit.

The UFL, and why I want it to work
TheFunPolice replied to WhitewalkerInPhilly's topic in The Stadium Wall
People forget that the original USFL had real football players who were stars: Jim Kelly Steve Young Sam Mills Reggie White Herschel Walker Gary Zimmerman Kent Hull Doug Flutie and many more... I just picked a handful that stood out to me Levy and Polian worked as coach/executive There were real star players and executives involved. It wasn't guys who can't even make an NFL practice squad. That's the real issue facing spring football, IMO. It's hard to imagine an equivalent today, with a bunch of really solid, well-known players with a few huge names and older coaches added in to sell tickets. -
Chiefs are just better than the Bills
TheFunPolice replied to Ethan in Cleveland's topic in The Stadium Wall
Nobody is. Reid is the GOAT. Unless BBQ and nuggies undo him, he'll surpass Schula for all-time wins, Belichick for all-time post season wins, and likely tie Belichick in SB wins. So not being as good as Reid is nothing to be ashamed of. But that doesn't mean you can't beat him, which we eventually will. -
Allen will definitely eventually beat Mahomes in the playoffs and win a Super Bowl. The games have been too close for it not to go our way eventually, and maybe a few times.
-
Reid is the uncrowned GOAT. Nuggies and BBQ are the only things that could stop him from holding every single HC wins/titles record by the time he retires. He's currently 5 playoff wins away from tying Belichick for most playoff wins all-time as a HC. That's 2 playoff runs. That said, McDermott has definitely shown the desire and ability to adapt and become WAY less conservative. The guy called a fake punt inside his own 30 yard line in a divisional playoff game. NOW we need McDermott to get behind loading up the offense with weapons.

Allen needs to mentally overpower Mahomes
TheFunPolice replied to Thrivefourfive's topic in The Stadium Wall
no... What Allen needs is Derrick Henry, Diggs, Mike Evans, a 1st or 2nd round rookie WR, Shakir, Kincaid, Knox and Cook on offense this season. That would do it. -
a ring for the king! Everything is feasible. The cap can always be managed, BUT you have to get it right. Henry and Cook would be an amazing 1-2 punch. This team needs to load up on offense. If the Saints can field a football team then it shows that the cap is fake.
-
Knox didn't suddenly become unable to make plays. We lost Beasley, Brown and Sanders and basically didn't replace them until this year with Kincaid. in 2022 we brought Brown and Beasley out of retirement for a playoff run for crying out loud! Shakir has made some nice plays, and hopefully he continues to develop. But we forget that we had Diggs, Brown, Beasley, Sanders and Knox. We used to have actual deep threats on the team to open up space.
-
no trades... I want Diggs and Mike Evans lined up at WR next year for the Bills, with a 1st or 2nd round rookie and Shakir as well, and maybe a proven decent vet guy like Beasley was when we signed him.
-
Baker very nearly led the Bucs to the NFC Title Game. That's crazy. They'll re-sign him.

Brady driven to greatness by trying to win Belichick's approval?
TheFunPolice replied to Big Turk's topic in The Stadium Wall
6 Super Bowl titles and 9 Super Bowl appearances. Yeah, I would say it worked. -
Brady driven to greatness by trying to win Belichick's approval?
TheFunPolice replied to Big Turk's topic in The Stadium Wall
what team would want to hire a 73 year old Belichick? Supposedly Dallas reached out to him behind the scenes to gauge interest before sticking with Big Mike this year. So BB doesn't want to go there. That's the only team I can imagine hiring a 73 year old guy who has only been good with Brady as his QB. Maybe SF? or Philly? A team that would be good but not good enough and would just want that SB title (in theory) not caring that it's a short term proposition.
