  1. Operative word being "could". If they even get a TD.
  2. Yet they are only down by 3.
  3. I agree. Mawae does not belong in the Hall. I don't think Ty Law deserves to be either. Champ Bailey, I guess he does. Gonzalez & Reed are most deserving & Gil Brandt is very deserving too.
  4. No way. I know the 49'ers were going for the threepeat, but that game against the Giants was an even match-up. The Vikings upset in '87 came out of nowhere.
  5. He lead the Vikings in that huge upset over the 49'ers in the 1987 divisional playoffs. That was probably the biggest upset that the Bill Walsh era 49'ers ever suffered. RIP Wade Wilson
  6. Berkeley is a pain with all of it's hills. They'd be better off playing at Stanford. Although they could wind up at the stadium where the San Francisco Giants play baseball.
  7. This thread reminds me of the time when Juror #8 disappeared.
  8. Trading down from #9 would not be a bad idea.
  9. Sad, but very likely. He'll be 34? Hang it up and enjoy retirement.
  10. An all over the field target would be Hunter Renfrow. Draft him.
  11. I watched it, and I agree with Kiper, overall QB play was awful. Andy Isabella looked very good, as did Terry Mclaurin and I also liked the play of West Virginia WR David Sills. I would love to see Clemson WR Hunter Renfrow in a Bills uniform. Dalton Risner looked good. May not be the best O-Lineman in the draft, but he may very well be a first round pick. Not impressed by any of the Tight Ends today, although that could be a result of today's QB play. Not much to cheer about today's running backs either. There were a lot of penalties today too. Other players that I thought did good today: C Garrett Bradbury North Carolina State WR Keelan Doss UC Davis WR Jakobi Meyers North Carolina State CB Lonnie Johnson, Jr. Kentucky S Jaquan Johnson Miami(FLA) DT Kingsley Keke Texas A&M DE Montez Sweat Mississippi State DE Jaylon Ferguson Louisiana Tech
  12. Exactly! I always watched the Pro Bowl, and I miss how competitive it used to be. Look at the players balling out in this short clip. The NFC were actually trying to block that game winning field goal! This was when the Pro Bowl actually meant something. I remember a lot of idiots on this board that would say how boring the Pro Bowl was, and how poorly the players did in it. Those people obviously never watched the Pro Bowl. I remember this particular game vividly. Loved it when Steve Tasker got the MVP for this game.
  13. "Mr.Roberts" is wonderful, but I have a tough time classifying that as a war movie. I only saw the 1998 version of "The Thin Red Line". Outstanding film, even though Terrence Malick can over do it with the imagery and poetry. I'll agree with you on "Saving Private Ryan" on a special effects viewpoint. Although you have to include "Fury" on that too.
  14. Joan Rivers was a nightmare, and Kathy Griffin is even more vile. Being insulting all the time is not funny, nor is it talent.
  15. Let's not forget about Shaw as Lonnegan in "The Sting". Ya Falla?
  16. I definitely see the long term approach the NFL is taking with this and taking a step back by coming at this slowly. Goodell made a big mistake by throwing the idea of having the Super Bowl in London. Way too early for that to happen. Thank you for pointing out that the attention these games bring to not only the people in England, but from other countries as well. I'm fully aware of how popular American Football is in Germany. We all remember how many German teams were in NFL Europe. I could see a team eventually moving to London, though I agree with you that it may not happen for awhile. The idea of another big expansion from the NFL makes me cringe. The talent level in the league is depleted enough as is. Another thing to keep an eye on is the amount of European football players that are getting recruited by Power 5 college football teams. Here is an article about that....https://247sports.com/Article/Power-5-programs-looking-to-Europe-in-college-football-recruiting-122518257/ With so many players from other countries getting a real shot at playing in the USA, it seems as if this is the future for football. From the article the popularity and talent level is growing more so, and it will only get bigger.
  17. I vote for Hunter Renfrow.
  18. I would love that. Then after the Saints walk into the stadium and they are all assembled..........BOOM!!!!! Who's that coming from the other side of the stadium.....It's the Kansas City Chiefs!!!!! Then the NFL would really be the WWE.
  19. So you're saying.....there's a chance? This is rich! Never mind what's gone on with New England the last two decades.
  20. Their tainted reign will end, and it's not like they've won every time. Damn you, Pete Carroll! Damn you, Kyle Shanahan!
  21. I wasn't around during the AFL days, nevertheless I always cheered for the AFC team to win the Super Bowl. That changes when it's New England, though.
  22. I've never had a problem with the Rams, so I'm cool with them winning. The fact that they are playing the Patriots*, just gives me greater motivation.
