  1. ...starting spreading the news....
  2. I'm good with any of the 4 getting in. But I'd like to see the Purdy experiment to continue to play out. He wouldn't succeed with 2/3rds of the teams with his average skillset. But he's in the perfect system that just needs simple competence.
  3. Good to see the Dallas kicker get over his yips. Unfortunately he passed them on to Prescott. Good to see Purdy beating richy rich franchise QBs. I think Philly still wins it, but Hurts really hasn't been tested with a D like San Fran so should be interesting.
  4. Taylor's not irreplacable but the next guy needs to have thick skin to deal with 'well you're not as good as taylor' BS.
  5. Gregg Popovich puts them in place. You rarely see any mid-game interviews with him anymore. Every question gets a prick response.
  6. Those eye candy sideline reporters are just annoying nitwits. Except Erin Andrews.
  7. because he thought it was a sure thing at that point...like 99.9% of the general population.
  8. especially good to see minny lose with their new ex-lions TE hockenson. Good player, just not great. Couldn't block a lick. The post-Hock Lions crew of TEs that included 2 UDFAs set Lions season record for TE TDs, so good riddance you salary hog. Even with Detroit's high powered offense, Hock just disappeared in games. Lions will be better off with Minny draft picks in a tight end heavy draft.
  9. tomorrow night....god i hate Dallas vs god I hate Brady. think I'll skip the game entirely to avoid the nausea.
  10. Jones was a stud today. Even putting a skirt on Cousins so he gets roughing calls couldn't help him. Cousins and Minny....ultimate team of posers. I'm betting the G men cover the spread at Philly...that game isn't gonna be a gimme. G men playing with house money now and are don't give a f**k honeybadgers.
  11. I suppose at some point those 2-7 seeds will need to play a road game to advance. Edit: Tampa Bay and Jacksonville had approx. .500 records at home, so no apparent home field advantage.
  12. Totally inconsistent by the fact that the team with the top record gets the #1 seed, but records don't apply to 2-7 seeds. In the name of fair competition, match up all the seeds by record like any other normal championship tournament. Of course, there's typical NFL owner politics at play since they're sticks in the mud. This policy is left over from the days of a single wild card team.
  13. Jeff's unique style always cut through the typical blue-rock or shredder guys. The way he could shape his sound using his right hand was totally unique. He found that right hand style years ago I believe in the 70s and abandoned the pick. I consider him more on a level of Miles Davis than of Page or Clapton. RIP Sir.
  14. If they cut him, he's actually got nearly $100 million dead cap hit this year. That's absurd. That drops to a $24m cap hit next year. His contract runs until he's 43. Jordan Love's rookie deal expires after next year, so got to figure out if he's the answer. Only somewhat reasonable solution is start Love next year and just have Rodgers sit and cash his checks. Cowherd made a good point...GB has blown the last game the past 3 years with Rodgers playing...at what point do you move on? If Rodgers doesn't start and becomes his typical dickhead, just let him stay home and send the checks. It's slowly starting to show the Lions getting the better of the Stafford/Goff deal. The talk in Detroit about Goff just being a bridge QB is dying off. He's a system QB, but still very good in the right system. Detroit's at the turning point and it would stupid to turn to a rookie QB at this point. Lions also have the Rams #1 pick at 6 this year. Would not surprise me if Stafford is done.
  15. The commentators haven't seen Detroit all year, so they were clueless. The play were they threw a tackle eligible pass to Sewell (RT) in motion for a game winner was much more ballsy. When you think about the play last night it was actually not very risky when you had two guys with good hands tossing the ball. at 2nd and 17, low risk potential high reward play. Examples: https://www.detroitlions.com/video/highlight-sewell-s-first-career-catch-comes-at-pivotal-moment-for-lions https://www.detroitlions.com/video/highlight-wright-s-51-yard-catch-and-run-td-gives-lions-lead-late Young OC is a genius.
  16. Lions OC is a young stud...pay him handsomely so he doesn't leave. They've been pulling sweet trick plays all year.
  17. I've never been so happy with a 9-8 Lions team who's not in the playoffs. Campbell's got the brass stones. Although the refs did try to cook it with that bullshit holding call on Mitchell. Nobody rocks a booboo race like Rodgers walking off a losing game.
  18. GB will win...it's already cooked by the refs.
  19. nfl just announce bengals vs bills as a 'no contest' so their record will only consist of 16 games. When you look at the standings, this game really doesn't affect the playoff seatings much. Might make a difference in home field if the bills and bengals match up. But the top seed for KC is fully cooked; they're ahead by one game and play Vegas this weekend....they won't lose that. No disrespect to Hamlin at all, but the media on this is getting to the oversaturation stage. Time to get back to life. I'm really annoyed by the media overreaction by saying this has never happened before. Bullshit...Chuck Hughes for the Lions died on the field in 1971. And they kept playing. Hockey has had all kinds of life threatening injuries, but not hearing about those these days. Any athlete is one play away from not playing again. At the end of the day, it's one guy in the NFL where players are disposable.
  20. If you believe in afterlife, can you imagine Gallagher and Judy Tenuta mixing it up? It could happen!
  21. A couple of problems I have with the song itself...one is the obvious cheesy title, second is that the main riff is a ripoff of In The Mood. That said, Alex is shredding balls on this recording and the recording is really clean for a bootleg.
  22. Since TRF is like reading the local obituary page these days, I thought I'd add this. https://www.usatoday.com/story/entertainment/music/2022/10/30/dh-peligro-dies-dead-kennedys-red-hot-chili-peppers-drummer/10645537002/ He was in the Chili Peppers long enough for a cup of coffee (or a snort of coke in this case). Kicked out for substance abuse. Apparently, he didn't meet their already low standards for that. RIP DH
