The Patriots got stripped of the first round pick and Brady got suspended not because of the alleged intentional deflation of footballs. After the NFL had to admit in Federal Court that they had ZERO evidence that the under-inflated footballs were caused by the Patriots intentionally trying to...

He wouldn't have won the challenge. This is because of the ridiculous way the refs allow the players to fight each other for the ball even after a player like Woods falls on the ball and clearly controls it and is then contacted by several players. The play should have been blown dead as soon as...

That was painful to read!! Seriously, that game ranked right up there with the Raiders playoff game (phantom roughing the passer call on Sugar Bear Hamilton) as the two worst reffed playoff games I've ever seen. What you described about the mugging Caldwell got the play after he dropped the pass...

If you are referring to the Colts playoff game, it was Reche Caldwell who dropped the ball...

Big deal, I put the wrong vowel down in spelling NabErs last name. If that's all you got to offer on the subject, why bother interjecting? Jeez...

You sure as hell didn't see too many LSU games then. Sure, Nabors made a lot of nice catches this year but he didn't bail him out all year as you claim. I saw every one of his games this year and there was nothing wrong with his passing game. He had good zip on the ball, good finesse and touch...

Simply put, I loved it from the get-go. I didn't care so much about his overall record with the Browns, I loved how he prepared his teams for big games. His work on the defensive side of things for the Giants speaks for itself and I knew the offense would hold its own. The only thing I was ever...

I believe you meant to type "I don't think the Patriots punted once". The Eagles punted once, the Patriots never punted. As for SHOWTIME15, if that's the best he can do as a troll, then he needs to try something else...

If you are referring to how teams viewed Howard/Brate for 2022 then I agree with you. However, I believe patfanken may be referring to how some teams may have viewed Howard/Brate (as a #1 TE) at the conclusion of the 2019 season before Brady joined Tampa for the 2020 season. Their stats weren't...

I am not disputing the fact that KC has gotten WAY more calls and non-calls than any other team since Mahomes became a starter. I was just pointing out in this game the refs were consistent in what they were and weren't calling...that is right up until the game-changing penalty at the end. I'm...

For the most part, I thought the officiating was fairly consistent. My observations were: 1) They let the offensive linemen on both sides get away with ticky-tack holding that generally gets called at least a couple of times per game. 2) They also mostly ignored the hands to the face penalties...

My memory isn't what it used to be, but I was pretty sure after the Berman ruling was overturned by that 2-1 vote that the NFL front office quietly dropped the farce of saying the Patriots were deflating footballs to get a competitive edge. Because the NFL lawyers admitted in Federal Court that...

The Eagles punted once in that Super Bowl. It was the Patriots who didn't punt that game. FreeTedWilliams posted that about the Eagles not punting that Super Bowl and a few others have gone along with it. The Patriots defense in that Super Bowl was the worst I've ever seen from a Patriots team...

I agree with both you and FreeTedWilliams in that the Bills used the Eagles Super Bowl season philosophy of going for it and minimizing punts. But from what I remember, it was the Patriots who didn't punt at all that game. The Eagles punted once after Foles misfired on a 3rd down pass when he...

I can't vouch for the first couple of paragraphs, but everything DarrylS wrote after is the truth. I've been living across the river from New Orleans for the past 25 years and the Saints are obviously my second favorite team. I used to have season tickets for six years back in the 90s, and have...

Tunescribe, you must not have watched the infamous Ben Dreith game. Today's game was pretty bad, but the Raiders playoff game was absolutely brutal. Patriots defensive linemen starting off plays with their shirts tucked in, the same plays ending with their jerseys pulled out from holds by the...

So sorry to hear of this Brett. I don't post much on here but love to read many of the informative and witty posts, including yours. Get well and hurry back!!

Primetime, you are spot on about Foles. He played about as perfect a game as the Eagles could have possibly dreamed of. Besides the one INT on the tipped pass, I saw only one other mistake on his part. There was a third down play where he had a huge opening to easily run for the first down...

I almost, almost, might agree with the first part of your post. That's the overhead TV shot of the play looks kind of "bang bang" IF the officials were looking not to call anything major or game-changing late in the game. I thought it was both pass interference and helmet to helmet as soon as I...

I respect your opinion as it does have some strong, valid points. I live ten minutes from the Superdome, and have spent the first half of my life living 30 minutes from Foxboro. I am a Patriots fan first, and a Saints fan second. Now that my bio is out of the way, let me elaborate a bit on...
