2025 NFL Season Thread: Can Uncle Rico save the Broncos or will they be Nixed?
Greetings friends.
Those of you who know me know me as a Niners fan full of fantastical levels of vitriol and rage. I hav
In regards to the the touchback rule: "According to ESPN Research, teams that started drives at the 30-yard line during the past 10 seasons averaged 1.97 points on those possessions. When their drives began at the 35-yard line, that point average jumped to 2.21 points. That's a 12% increase in scoring that coaches would have to factor in if they want to keep kicking touchbacks.
I'm still pretty sure a beautifully-placed kick will land at the 1 and be returned 99 yards in a nationally-televised game week one, and then every coach will grumble that they learned their lesson and immediately go back to blasting every KO into the stands instead.NFL then finally gives up in 2026-27 and just plops the ball at the 25 for every new possession unless a team wan

Maybe Jerruh's corpse will be there on a ventilator tonight

giving false hope to Cowboys fans until he springs back to incredible health in March!
I was right there with you--although not as heavily invested. Disappointing.

Let us football!
I would like to share with you all the stupidest ****ing headline in all the world, for an article written by a clickbait hungry garbage columnist at the Detroit Free Press:
"Dan Campbell and Brad Holmes’ seats could get hot if Lions flop again"

* except possibly the Eagles guy.
That's pretty bad
Lions are my sleeper pick this season. Which is kind of odd to say about a team that went 15-2.
SRM, you're still an ass, but that was an A+ post lol.

This is like answering the question " What animal would you least like to accidentally stuble upon in the dark?"
And answering it by saying "I know everyone else views them as cuddly kitty cats but for me it would be a Lion"
LFG
IT'S TIME FOR SOME FOOSBALL!!
I would not be completely shocked if the Boys won. SB winner typically struggles in these games.
Good thing they fixed kickoffs so there are no injuries
What ****ing thread are we using for this game?
that summarizes this game doesn't it
grown men sacrificing their bodies and their brains for our entertainment
lol see you Carter
Stay classy Iggles
Hahahahaha
