When it comes to the Packers what culture can you say is there to be changed? They relied on Rodgers to carry a sad sack team for over ten years. The Vikings still choke when it matters most, and the Lions only have to exist in order to lose The culture that needs changing is the idea that you can be successful by relying on Rodgers to carry a sad sack team!!!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Before Minnesota, I lived in Boston for a number of years so don't worry, I've celebrated my fair share of Super Bowl wins. I just don't broadcast my AFC team allegiance all that often because Pats fans tend to get ill treated around here. But crazy enough, I was actually in Gillette Stadium for today's game and was the only person in the stands cheering on every play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

starcrunch061 Posted December 3, 2018 Share Posted December 3, 2018 (edited) Boy, the Chiefs really needed that one yesterday. I'm getting that feeling about them in the playoffs, though. I didn't stay up for the Chargers=Steelers game, though I did see that awful non-call on the false start. 10 hours ago, majob said: Feel free to live in Michigan then.

It's ingrained in the Wisconsin thought. Back when I lived there, the Packers were going to win the Super Bowl every year because Brett Favre. How many teams get the opportunity that the Packers got? it's so hard to hand off the QB position from a HoFer, and the Packers are squandering it.

Believe me that's the funny part because most Wolverine fans didn't care for him until his Orange Bowl win and he got his first SB rings. The bandwagon was in full force after that and it's an excuse sometimes when Ohio inevitably stomps us. "Hey, we had BRADY".

djb5f Posted December 3, 2018 Share Posted December 3, 2018 The Texans have to be the quietest 9-wins-in-a-row team in the NFL history. Yeah, they play in a putrid division but still... I think the first win of the streak was when the Colts gave it to them because their coach hates ties. Real men of genius. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Win streaks don't really mean much these days. Rams had a great record last year and were one and done and the Cowboys in 2016 clinched first seed then lost to the Packers and we all know how 2015 went for the Panthers in the end Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MidnightDragon Posted December 3, 2018 Share Posted December 3, 2018 The same guy on the Steelers did three offsides penalties in a fucking row! I'm sure he'll never live that down. And I can see why the Raiders are 2-10 right now...though this was pretty damn funny: http://sports.yahoo.com/jon-gruden-continues-dubious-first-season-raiders-illegally-challenging-touchdown-231100183.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What a clown show that is. Perhaps he is trying the whole "set the expectations so low, I will look like a success" routine. I was glad Gruden got a coaching job (could not stand him as an announcer) but the new crew might be worse. I swear MNF has largely been worse than Thursday night football (games and production value) and that is saying something... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's uncanny. I mean, teams always start to struggle this time of year, but I'm sure not putting money on then. The Chiefs must love this kind of coach.

I think Marty had a real shot at going all the way with the squad he coached circa-2006 if not for consummate ass A.J. Smith. They say it was Dean's decision, but I'm pretty sure A.J. had his ear.

Yeah, you had Brady but you also benched him for a guy named Scott Dreisbach. Brady was behind Brian Griese for awhile too, which really tells you how good Lloyd Carr was at recruiting QBs.

I was trying to be diplomatic, but if you insist: I got the Ravens beating the dog shit outta the Chiefs because they'll be without Hunt -- he accounted for 14 touchdowns, 7 rushing and 7 receiving respectively -- and I think Mahomes will be asked to do more with less. Granted, Spencer Ware is a good, young player but he ain't no Kareem. Da Bears will whip LA 30-14 because defense, and I'm an admitted NOLA homer and wish it so. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
starcrunch061 Posted December 6, 2018 Share Posted December 6, 2018 I like the Ravens pick. The Chiefs seem vulnerable. I think the Bears picks is...NOLA homerism. That being said, I think I'm gonna pull for the Saints, too. After all, they have former UT player Alvin Kamara (the Rams do have John Kelly, though). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope he doesn't develop fat embolism as well. He's a little older and only one long bone broke, so the risk should be lower than it could be (or was in my case).

Splathew Posted December 6, 2018 Share Posted December 6, 2018 I could see B-More beating the Chiefs but I don't see the Chiefs getting rolled at home. They haven't lost by more than 3 points all year. I know losing Hunt is a big blow but they are still loaded on O and their D normally plays better at home.
