Road To The Superbowl 2025

I am thinking they should go a different direction.   I fully expect NFL to add a game to regular season.   I say add a week to regular season and drop all preseason games.  One or two joint practices, then Go!

Agree

Dont think it’ll pass for next season but should by the next.

The league has been going in this direction for quite a while, so it’s definitely a possibility. In the 70’s there were 6 exhibition games to start the season, with what a 15 round draft? The league then decided to shorten the exhibition season, adding those games to the regular season to drum up more interest towards ticket sales. 
 

I think if anything, the league would probably use the revenue generated argument to go to 2 exhibition games as opposed to joint practices. And like you mentioned, add the game to the regular season schedule.

@J._Bricker, tough game but my boy Jennings went off!

Yes he did! I figured you kept up on his current career day. Too bad that kind of production was wasted in a loss.

QB clinic going on in Buffalo!

It is a clinic in Buffalo tonight.  Honestly the Bills might as well rest their starters in the second half at this point.

I will add Josh Allen just may be the reason my wife pulls an upset in her fantasy league 😬

   I would not be surprised if Tua is retired by Thanksgiving and the Fins are fighting the Pats to stay out of last in the division. 

 I may have jumped the gun.  I'm glad he had a good year, but I'm not convinced it was worth it. 

 

Is preseason finally over?

   I haven't watched more than a quarter of a game yet, but there's a few interesting matchups I'd like to see this weekend. And, about a half dozen that you couldn't pay me to watch.

I heard this on the radio this morning while listening to fantasy football weekly in the boat.  The three highest paid quarterbacks in the league have not won a single game combined yet this season.

 

Burrow, 0-3

Lawrence, 0-3

Love, 0-1

 

Combined 0-7

Was under the impression that Dak was the highest paid QB at 60 mil per year.

That contract doesn't start until next season.  His cap hit this season is $43 million.

 

His new deal is in fact 60 mil/season for 4 years (2025 -2028).

Complete domination...

I was happy to see my Broncos beat Rodgers again😎

With that username your team won and lost last night 😅.

Yes that was a demolition by Baltimore, wow.

[Mike L]

Baltimore did a good job but not as dominant as what Tampa did to Philadelphia, and I’m not a Tampa fan at all.

Man, am I kicking myself for not drafting Derrick Henry in fantasy football. He had like 40 points just last night.

[12poundbass]

Yeah that was a rough one last night for my Bills. 

[Bird]

@12poundbass

Bills will be fine.

NE, Miami and the Jets all look like bottom feeders in AFC East thus far.

Josh Allen is a top tier QB as well.

[12poundbass]

@Bird I’m not worried and I know they can’t win them all, but that was a blowout! The Ravens always play the Bills tough and Allen is 1-2 against them. 
 

He (Allen) had one helluva pass to midfield as he was running for his life at the sidelines. Dude is a freak!

[12poundbass]

What a great game last night! From the opening kickoff, I don’t think there was a dull moment the entire game.

[Bird]

@12poundbass

Miami vs Tennessee wasn't dull ?.......I detect sarcasm.

Miami literally looked like a highschool team and " Snoop " Huntley couldn't put a football in a swimming pool. 👍

[12poundbass]

@Bird I was referring to Detroit Seattle game. I didn’t watch the JV game. 😁

[Glenn]

While I still believe the Seahawks would have lost, they certainly didn't need any help from the refs.  It was a much closer game than the score suggests on account of some very poor calls that even the announcers were questioning.
