NFL 2015 Week 16 |OT| A Fraud Was Always a Legend
- Thread starter MRSA
- Start date
Packers vs. Vikings most likely.
Packers. Announced last night.
The only way RBH is going to sleep well at night is if the Panthers win the Super Bowl. Otherwise, he gets nothing. Because the Falcons won't be special otherwise. Unless you mean "Special" which might be the case.
So anyways...
The Bengals are eliminating the Colts tonight, me thinks.

Only way either happens is Bengals and Patriots sitting their starters
Can we also have the NFL force the Texans to trade JJ Watt to the Raiders?
Send him some Messican food.
Not too bad. The Packers might have the weirdest upcoming schedule. Cards, Vikings, Viking, Cards. Woo!
Nice! Good idea and I'll send Ez some white sheets.
Force the Raiders to release Mack first, you shit.
The idea is to have these star players not waste their carers in shit holes. Sending them to LA is the opposite.
What does this even mean.
Why in the world would I ever want the Panthers to win the Super Bowl

You know its a real possibility that Mack will get DOPY even though I don't really agree with it. Maybe coDOPY with Watt.

I believe they also get in with a win and if Denver loses two straight.
I expected STL and MIA to be on this list, but the others are a bit surprising. I did find it odd yesterday how difficult the Chiefs had throwing the ball on the terrible Browns defense. Kelce and Maclin are a pretty damn good combo of targets
e: Bortles has 29TDs when his team trails. That's something. Robinson had 10TD catches
Peter King is always pushing for teams to have rivalry games based on proximity (SF/Oak, Baltimore/Washington, NY/NY, Houston/Dallas, etc). Does anyone else want this? I really like how predictable and sensible the schedule is now. Shoehorning in a Bears/Colts game just doesn't make a lick of sense. Who cares if the Chiefs rarely play the Rams?
We can just leave Watt there for you guys after the game or maybe even before?
Preferably at the start of camp in Napa before the season starts for the LA Raiders. If you got a good safety, you can leave him here too.
That is idiotic.How would that even work? Not every team has non-conference geographic "rivals." The Packers get to play the Vikings an extra time each year?
Yeah, that's another great point. NY/NY makes sense. But who would Seattle play? Or Denver? Or even New England? And, as a 49ers fan for twenty years, I couldn't give two shits about the Raiders. They've never been a rival and forcing that matchup on me every year would be downright tedious. I understand that it's fun seeing Brady go against Eli, but you can't pervert the schedule because of a couple interesting matchups.
If the Rams leave, one of our teams would get KC. The other would get one of the other leftover teams like Seattle or something.

Bionic would approve.
I think the Baltimore/DC region would enjoy it.

It works in baseball because there are 162 games and people stopped caring about a balanced schedule a long time ago. But in a 16 game schedule it gives a massive advantage to whichever teams get to play the dregs like the Lions or Browns or Texans every year.

Can any truly surpass Madden NFL '98, which is 30% John Madden's bus driving around?

Also had #22 for the Patriots rushing at Favre on a pass (.. Dave Meggett?)... Shows a helmet getting cut in 2 by a lazer, the NFL symbol rising from bubbling lava, Lazers turning into solid metalic beams through a helmet, and CG graphics that I'm pretty sure were shown in the promotional materials for Madden that year, without any explanation that the game looked like this:
I don't want them to make it in. I can't handle the guaranteed heart break
I wonder how it would work with the three Florida teams. Bucs/Dolphins and then Jags/Falcons? While the Panthers twiddle their thumbs? It's pretty clear Peter King is from the North East where there are real rivalries between cities. But most of the country isn't like that.
Business as usual for a Jeff Fisher football team.
Starting 14-0 after what was essentially a rebuilding year is pretty impossible to feel bad about, especially with our best receiver watching from the sidelines. We need to lock up the top seed against a bad Bucs team at home next week though. I still think we have a great chance to make the Super Bowl if the road goes through Charlotte, especially with all the 3-6 seeds looking pretty shaky. Biggest problem right now is pass rush, but I think it's just a matter of guys figuring out their roles. Short is the star of that line, not Charles Johnson or anyone else. Just do your job and let KK do his thing. Secondary is a bigger problem but we don't face a receiver like Julio Jones in the playoffs. I'm not going to be concerned about our offense looking a bit out of sync in one game after a 6 game run of scoring 30+ points. Sometimes dudes just play bad.
A dirty team.. I wonder who the coach is
You know you're in good shape when guys still don't know their roles in Week 17.
Really is the best option even though Browns fans are losing their minds about this. You have to stop the coaching carousel. They seem to forget when they hired Petine coaches were turning down interview offers from the Browns. Not exactly enticing free agents or draft prospects.
I know forcing a coach on a new GM isnt ideal but it is the Browns best option.
