The NFL Thread

[Dennisons Wrong Foot]

I dont think ordinary fans enjoy the Chiefs or any team winning every year, and right now the Lions are the team to beat. Sometimes I don't know how they do it - their opponent dominates time of possession, has more total yards, more on the ground, more through the air, Goff hardly throws it - yet the Lions run up a cricket score!

In the Lions and Vikings you are seeing the impact of an elite coordinator, one on the offense the other the defense. Their schemes maximise the talent. They'll both be hired away next year, although with Flores it's complicated and you'll see a drop off.

Fwiw I don't think KC will win the SB this year. Their results are better than their performances which I think will catch up with them eventually. They have a knack of catching teams at the right time, the Bucs tonight without their WRs for instance.

If ever the old adage about the first 2 weeks of an NFL season being a mirage proved to be true then it's the 2024 Saints

Dak out for multiple weeks for the Cowboys, that coupled with CeeDee Lamb likely being out also practically ends their season.

So predictable with the way Jones ran their off season. They have ownership who have simply lost interest...sounds familiar.
