Lots of armchair coaches from fans to commentators between some college games yesterday to some NFL games today.

That it was. What an exciting double-header with MN then Buffalo. Some friends and I bribed/paid off/etc the Sunday worker at LTD Brewing to open early, and on top of that, it was considered a "private party" until normal operating hours. Grin

Buffalo does need to start actually playing in the first half. It cost them last week, and almost cost them today.

Question answered.  We hey have a grass field for Futbol and a turf field for Football.  The grass field is rolled out so they can play Football on the turf field and which lies under the grass field.  It’s really insane the money that is spent.

They spent the money at Tottenham with the intention of hosting NFL games. It’s quite the revenue stream for them. They play 19 homes futbol matches in the Premier League. Plus a handful here and there for European competition. Why not host 4 games a year and sellout the place? IIRC they were non too pleased in 2020 when the NFL decided to keep everything domestic.

To be clear, they don't play futbol in England. Futbol is played in Spain. Cool

Romo calling out the late button pushing was funny.

“Oh wow, did you hear that? He said ‘you have to snap the ball’ and that’s it.”

Miami's head coach Mike McDaniel announced that Tua will be out this week against the NYJ. He is still in concussion protocol.

I think Tua could have been cleared by the entirety of the medical community and he’d be out this week after the backlash.

Because he never should have come back in versus BUF (and probably shouldn't have played against CIN).

So let me get this right a receiver coming back to the ball jumps up, catches the ball in the air and his momentum carries him back another yard where he lands. He gets credit for that yard further forward where he caught it instead on the yard further back where he landed even though it’s not a catch until he touches both feet on the ground?

Looking like one of the best moves of the off-season was the Falcons trading Ryan, signing Mariota and drafting Ridder.

I wouldn't care if the Bills lost to Teddy Time. I care about Tua possibly having his career ended/marred by a stupid decision.

Retro Pats' logo is so HOF. I do love the creamsicles, though. Have me a Vinny TB jersey in that style. Smile The only other one that I know about, among people I know is an Alvin Harper that a buddy bought. Yup. Alvin effing Harper.

The original Pats is glorious and was my favorite 2nd logo until I realized you can't have a 2nd team in the NFL and be taken seriously.

You can, sort of. Can't call yourself a fan, but you won't be angry if they win (unless it directly affects your team). I root for the Vikings that way, since a majority of my friends are Vikes fans. I'm happy to see them succeed, but I'm not on that bandwagon whatsoever.

No.  Abandoning a team (especially conveniently when bad) for something sexier or a brand name player is lame.  Sorry.

I never abandoned a team. I chose the Bills in my youth (1986), due to Jim Kelly, who is a (to use an old-fashioned phrase) man's man. Stuck with them through their VERY crappy years (last NFL team to make the playoffs in the 2000s...), and still with them now.

I was going to write what a terrible shame it is that Packerland had to wake up early with hangovers to watch their team go down in flames under the shadow of the Union Jack, but that would have been silly.

 

Most of them were probably still drunk.

That roughing the passer call on Atlanta is maybe the worst penalty call I've ever seen in any sport. Just openly favoring Tom Brady

Denver. HOU is a hot mess, everyone knows it, so he lasts. Tomlin...give him a year or two. THEN he's on the hot seat. DET had the highest scoring offense this year, until today's sh*burger. CHI is rebuilding, so they'll have patience. I guess SEA would be a dark horse. Raiders, though....

Pittsburgh rarely changes head coaches, and no way they fire Tomlin during the season. Pete Carroll won't be fired during the year either. After the year, it is anybody guess as of now.

I would say Carolina's coach will be the 1st to go.

I'm 50% factual and 50% sarcastic. When you get to know me, you will know which is which.

Pittsburgh as a NFL franchise has had only 3 head coaches, Noll, Cowher and Tomlin.  Pretty amazing, cause most NFL teams have had 3 head coaches in the last 10 years.

My bad… since the Super Bowl era, they’ve had 4.

Until Chuck Noll the Steelers were a horrible franchise.  Interesting tidbit, hall of famer Johnny "Blood" McNally coached them in the late '30s and McNally later went on to coach at St. John's University in the early '50s.  When he left he told the incoming coach "no one can when at SJU."  

He could not have been more wrong...the next coach was John Gagliardi.
