NFL did us a solid and put the entire back end of the Chargers/Raiders instant classic on youtube.

The highlight of the game was the most glorious incompletion I've ever seen. Mahomes managed to throw a perfect 30 yard spiral after getting tripped, while almost parallel to the ground, and hit his...

Re: Sports: NFL
The Broncos have now signed Blake Bortles. Apparently (given my history with Bortles and Flacco in this thread) the more I criticize a QB, the more likely they are to end up in Denver.

The stat that Lamar Jackson is 22-1 as a regular season starter against the non-Chiefs, and 0-3 against the Chiefs, is pretty crazy.
But let's be honest. Nobody cares about this small potatoes...

To implement it you introduce 4 or 5 expansion teams, and combine those with some clubs from the XFL and CFL to make the core of the second division. Then the next year you contract the NFL to 24...

The Pro Bowl actually had the right idea for kickoffs. Just replace ALL kickoffs with a 4th and 15 from the 35. Instead of onside kicks, you can go for it on 4th down. Otherwise you punt. Average...

Yep. 8 Brady, 4 Manning, 3 Roethlisberger, 1 Flacco.
By contrast, Wilson and Eli Manning are the only NFC quarterbacks in that stretch to have even made it twice.

Re: Sports: NFL
My "Tom Brady won't be able to recover from injury at this age" theory is actually holding up reasonably well. Adjusted for league baseline, this was the worst year of his career by most measures.
