2024-2025 NFL Random Observations Thread

That's exactly why you go for it. Coaches play way too scared and they'll convert that way more often than not. Especially if it's early in the game and you have time to bounce back on not converting.

I’m not talking about the 4th quarter one. I’m talking about from their own 30. In the 4th, you make it and the game is over. The reward merits the risk.

From your 30, congrats you made it and you still have 70 yards to go. So the reward doesn’t even merit the risk it’s stupid

We are only talking about that 4th quarter call bc of his dumbass call from his 30 gifted GB points

Coaches that elevate teams but then plateau get eviscerated all the time

I just don’t like that the narrative on them is shifting . They are leaps and bounds the best roster in the mfl yet they’re viewed as some underdog now and it’s not about winning a chip it’s about ‘awwww the Lions are entertaining, crazy man Campbell’. Title teams ain’t supposed to be a carnival show

Just remember where you heard it. They’re gonna lose in the playoffs bc of his fukkery, but everybody is gonna has have the same warm and fuzzy ‘aww but at least he tried’ coverage. It’s annoying. Sirianni don’t get covered like that. Shanahan don’t get covered like that. MLF don



This. Where I’m from we call it ‘fukking up the money’

Siri doesn’t get covered like that because he comes across as a prick. Shanahan comes across as a know-it-all who in fact does not know it all. Campbell’s more marketable as coach.

He’s what Jeff Bridges in ‘The Big Lebowski’ would’ve ended up as if The Dude pursued an NFL career and the media can’t get enough of it. His rah rah speeches are corny but it’s equating to the best record in the league at the end of the day.

Yeah that Eagles D been coming on like a MF and they're almost just as dangerous as Detroit on offense. Only way I see Detroit beating them is if Detroit holds on to home field advantage and their defensive players that return from injury don't miss a beat. Should be a hell of a game.

Stop the run and force Goff to move. Eagles have the personnel to do that.

Eagles

Thats the Clash of the Titans right there

Knowing the history of the NFL…The Lions are so good it’s probably gonna end in heartbreak.

It would be dope for them to get their first Super Bowl but y’all know how this goes most of the time. It never ends how you think.

That’s why the NFL playoffs are so crazy. One bad call, a missed FG, injury all kinds of crazy shyt could happen in one game.

Not hoping for it or rooting against them by any means but it makes me think of the '98 Vikings. That team was a juggernaut and got beat in the divisional round

That’s the he first team the pops in my head.

Anything can happen in the playoffs. There’s not one team I feel strongly about this year.

I love Lamar and Henry and can’t bet against Mahomes. However, Josh Allen and the Bills look very good, and if Amari Cooper steps up….look out.

 

[BucciMane]

I’m taking the Chiefs until proven otherwise..

Two years from now, it’s Drake Maye and the Patriots time..

The 98 Vikings lost in the NFC Championship game, not the divisional round. Dominant teams who lost in the divisional, 2005 Colts, 2010 Patriots, 95 49ere, 06 Ravens, 2000 Titans, 2011 Packers, 2009 Chargers, 2004 Colts, 2006 Chargers etc

I stand corrected, props

Someone with money to burn has wagered $3.1 million on the Eagles to beat the Panthers on Sunday. Via ESPN.com, the bettor in Kentucky placed the beat at Circa Sports, at -700 odds.
That means the bettor is wagering $700 to win $100.
In this case, a Philly win would result in roughly $442,800.

Nabers got 740 yrds right now. he's going to break the drought

 

[Street Knowledge]

Honestly this would be the best time for Kyle Shanahan to jump ship. That run is basically over and you gonna have to pay Brock Purdy 60 million dollars.
