2023 NFL Regular Season - Page 104 - Sporting Events and Fantasy Sports

There’s something about the fans of up and coming contending teams that haven’t won the SB for a long time that seems to change posters itt into loons.

Suzzer was the first but he chilled out substantially once the Chiefs won one. Dom became unbearable as the Bills were upwardly mobile and now SRM. Also newguyhere has appeared and is showing increasing signs of irrational Dolphins fan behaviour too

All I said was Miami has a better of winning the SB than Dallas because the path to getting there for Miami is so much easier.

I don’t even remember that one, but there’s been a few.

You’re not extreme yet but I do feel that a 2nd Rd playoff loss and then another year of contending might have you primed for some lunacy

I watched it growing up in the UK in the 80s - we used to get a few hours of highlights every week on the TV and then we'd get playoff games in full (athough they were generally the middle of the night so we'd have to tape them). Then just followed it from there.

My first Super Bowl I remember watching was the year the Raiders won in like 83 or 84.

I have twice lived in the US for a while too, but I already loved it before then

My first big new business pitch win and one of the first ad campaigns I ever produced was for the launch of the London Monarchs in the World League of American Football.

‘American Football. English Turf’.

Seems like he's talking about the Raiders-Redskins SB. That was the first one I remember, too.

Being overly defensive is how the lunacy starts.

Dallas finally got a game where one of the bottom feeders (okay that's an excessive term for the Seahawks, they're not a bad team) gave them a run, and Dallas held up and got the win so gotta give them props for that.

But they've only beat one team with a winning record: Seattle (who drops to .500 with the loss). Teams they've beaten are a collective 34-69 (included NYG twice in there).

They get their chance next 4 weeks to show their mettle against strong competition. I can't really make much differentiation between them and Miami at this point.

Joe Flacco to start for the Browns

Remember a year or two ago when we thought there were more decent WBs than ever before?

I missed mark's Cowboys-specific insinuation here the first time. Well played, sir.

Holy **** I had no ****ing idea how brutal the ravens schedule is the rest of the way. Jesus lol

Jaguars +700 to ship the AFC seems kinda sexy. The ravens are the only team on their schedule that is a potentially losable game and even that’s at home. KC’s got at least 2 on their schedule that could snake them

Jags taking the 1 seed seems like the likeliest scenario

I don't know what the hell a WB is, but I have no doubt that Joe Flaccid is one of the best there ever was!

Fat thumbs. Can’t even think of a good W word to describe Joe’s position
