With the Jags running game eating up the yards, I think Pittsburgh really could have used someone who could set the edge ... someone like the Patriots' James Harrison!;)

So, I missed the halftime show. Was it Sheryl Crowe again this year? :D

Teacher: "Name an NFL coach worse than Marvin Lewis and get Friday off." Class: .......................................................................................... Little Johnny raises his hand. Teacher: "Okay. Who Johnny?" Little Johnny: "Jeff Fisher. See you Monday!" [I...

There are some good teams in the playoffs this year, but IMO none better than the Pats. Of the Chiefs, Jags, and Saints, I think the Saints will give us the biggest problem.

Come on now guys. Let's not put James Harrison in Canton just yet ... oh, wait a minute! ;)

Which team was that? ;)

I would add Special Teams to this equation as well. If I'm not mistaken, our opponents, on average, start their drives further back after kickoffs and punts than most. So , if you put this Offense, Defense, Special Teams, and Coaching together into the equation, you have one helluva team...

For me, it doesn't matter! First round bye is a huge advantage, bringing much needed rest to a nicked up team. We are the best in the AFC and it doesn't matter who comes to Gillette!

I think we will score easily and often with our running and passing attack. The Steelers run D struggled against the Bengals. IMO I think we have the edge in Offense, Defense, Special Teams and Coaching. That said, it should be a classic match up!

A very enjoyable 6-2! Defense appears to be progressively improving. Winning in low scoring games is ugly and nerve racking, but, for me, quite satisfying . I recall that 2003 was an emotional roller-coaster! 2017 has a little bit of that feel. Brady appears to me to be inaccurate (for...

I am really looking forward to this game. Should be a good measuring stick for where we are at. Just hoping for a better first half than the last time we played them. ;)

Absolutely! IMO, the Pats organization excels regarding the "edge." They are highly competitive where it counts: top coaching, excellent training facilities, continuous improvement in their processes, scouting, and now, a luxury airplane fleet so that the team can be as fresh as possible for...

Jesus, Ken. If you play poker as well as you write your "Editions" I never want to face you in a game! ;) Tough, ugly win on the road! We'll take it and move on!

I thought the Panthers played very well. Pretty good play calling, especially on Offense. The designed QB runs late in the game were back breakers as were our defensive hands to the face penalties. We cannot expect to win, even with Brady, if our Defense gives up 30+ points per game. A 4 day...

Speaking as a senior citizen, a glorious way to go out! :D

Excellent, Ken! IMO: Watson was very impressive! The Texans may FINALLY have a QB. BOB was not so impressive. He actually looked asleep at the switch in the final 23 seconds. I always wonder (mostly after failed attempts ;)) why teams don't try to run around the pile instead of through...

Like many, I was underwhelmed by his rookie training camp. By the end of that season I was liking him a lot. Last year I was loving his game and eagerly joined the White/Lewis debates on this board. I'm not surprised that he earned a front row parking spot in the off-season. Through the...

I thought Romo was excellent! IMO he is a huge improvement over Simms. We actually heard a color analyst talk about the game with real insight! It was a breath of fresh air. I only muted during the commercials! I just hope "the powers that be" don't tell him to stop being so technical and...

Great post, Ken! For me, this thread routinely generates the best "Reader Value", which is the average "thoughtful observation" per post. (I try to limit my responses so that I don't drag down the value. ;)) That said, I thought this game was a clunker that the team can learn a great deal...

Tough loss! Chiefs played us very well. Tom was uncharacteristically inaccurate throughout most of the game. Looked like he had plenty of time to throw but kept missing. Not converting fourth and inches two times was brutal as was giving up the big plays on D. Chiefs deserved their victory...
