You saw the ups guy drop it off, eh? 

He admitted it. This is old news, time to catch up. He said it was for his wife, not to help him recover from a crippling injury.

The time to catch up on that was years ago…….. I don’t recall him saying a word. But anyway we all know he wasn’t suspended for cheating like Brady was

And the team was penalized too.  The Patriot way involves cheating...plain and simple.  Fraud franchise

They would be perfect for college where the Motto is “if you ain’t cheating you ain’t trying”

Hgh was banned in the NFL in 1991 but wasn't tested for until 2014. They relied on players telling them they did it. Manning said it was for his wife. Sounds like Mrs manning and Mrs clemens would get along, both roiding out.

Whether you are a Chiefs fan or not, Patrick is fun to watch!

 

Kansas City  27

Eagles            21

I would agree with the first part, I do like watching mahomes (especially when tyreek hill was there) even though I’m not a chiefs fan. The second part, however, I’ll go eagles 38 chiefs 14 

[roadwarrior]

Hill was a treat and I wish they had not let him go. I still don't know the story.

What happened?

[Mike L]

Free agent money and draft picks

Gonna be a great game, hopefully. Lots of offense and

stout defense. I do think the Eagles have the edge, but

I would never count out the Chiefs. The line is close 

enough that it might as well be a coin flip.

 

Ugh, coin flip. That brings back a 13 second nightmare.

[flyfisher]

Howie Roseman has to be the best GM in all of sports.  Won it all in 2017 after being demoted years prior, drafted Hurts while Wentz was coming off what would have been an MVP season had he not been injured, got a first and a third for Wentz and a mere two years after going 4-12 back in the Super Bowl.  

He is pretty incredible managing the cap and getting rid of players while value is still high but their play is on the decline.

They did away with the coin flip, granted we haven’t seen an OT game since so it may not help

I can’t exactly recall but yes OT rules changed. No longer sudden death, the rest gets a little foggy. Im sure you’ve heard 

[flyfisher]

oh yeah i know about that but the coin flip stil exists i thought.

Heck it may still be auto win if you score TD as opposed to FG, I can’t remember the stipulations. College has a fairly good system 

[flyfisher]

Used to be first team gets a TD its over but that is changed this year.  Both teams get a shot which is fair to me.  College has a decent set up as well.  I'd like to see them have to drop a player after each team possesses the ball if it is still tied.

Correct, OT possession was changed, but the coin flip I

was referring to was the betting line being so close that

it's a coin flip for the winner (solely based on the line).

Per NFL.com, here are the 2023 playoff overtime rules.  I believe they still do a coin flip to see who receives the ball first.

 

The new playoff overtime rules include 15-minute periods instead of the 10-minute overtime period in the regular season. If the team that got the ball first doesn't score a touchdown, or if the score is tied after each team has possessed the ball, the next score would win.

Yes they still flip a coin, I didn’t quite word that correctly. They tried to eliminate the coin flip being the deciding factor for winning and losing but they still flip it

Eh . . . . not a complete comparison.  Is there a comparison of the defenses?  Also, the Chiefs haven't had a losing record since 2012 and only one season of less than 11 wins since 2015 (10 wins in 2017).  They have had to work harder for decent draft picks than the Eagles over the past few years.  I think both of their GMs do a pretty good job with the draft.

I think the obvious solution is you continue play adding "quarters" until one team is ahead at the end of a quarter and is declared the winner. I also would like to see hockey goalies serve their own penalties, a player entering the zone with possession of the puck, not to be offsides, and all penalties served regardless of how many players left on the ice, Oh and Chris Froome should have been disqualified or penalized for advancing without his bicycle, as should have Lance for taking a short cut in the TDF. The 3" bigger bases don't make sense to me though... (This is the part where my wife usually says "enough already!")... As long as the Eagles loose, I'll be ok...
