NFL (since 2016)

"Free agency started last night and was pretty crazy some huge money being spent. Osweiler getting £18m a year for the Texans, leaving the Broncos without a QB, Giants have spent a fortune on good but not great players, Oliver Vernon has more guaranteed money than JJ Watt. lots more deals but cant be bothered to list them all."

[zebthecat]

My main hope is that the Bangals O-line plays like they did against the Chiefs rather than how did against the Titans. Still think Burrow is going to be doing a lot of running away tonight.

"Now who da cotton picking, god damn, mother fucker who turned you all into feudin' banjo playing' hill billy boys? Now come on, don't you be bold in' back on me now""¶.."

Burns. No way was the Bengals were ranked 4th in the AFC back in August. That's buying into media BS. Anyway hope you have a cracking night mate.

[Takashi Miike]

"I couldn't give a shit who's the underdog, I just like the Bengals team more. It's pretty amazing Burrow comes back from that knee injury and makes the Superbowl in his first full season. I also love the faith they showed in him by dragging Chase in the first round, over the numerous guards & tackles that were available. I also hate Beckham, so come on Bengals"

[Mr. Burns]

The Rams are the 4th seed in the NFC and the Bengals are the 4th seed in the AFC. Good to see you're all buying into the media underdog bollocks. I hope we annihilate them. Go Rams.

[Takashi Miike]

"really like the Bengals head coach and love the way they've built that team, I hope they win"

"I wouldn't be unhappy if Rams won, Stafford deserves one for the pain he's had the last god knows how many years"

[OccupyGreenStreet]

BENGALS!

[Nutsin]

BENGALS!

[RBshorty]

With no skin in the game. I'll always go with the underdog. So that's the Bengals for me. As long as it's not a blowout. I'm going to enjoy it.

[bobbymoore]

Who we going with tonight? I'm cheering on the Bengals. Have a look at his also...... https://www.tsmcompetitions.co.uk/competition/super-bowl-special/

"It's possible some coaches have been paid to tank before now. But the problem with Jackson is that, unless he has any firm evidence, then the Browns will just say: a) We've always been a bit shit in the modern era. Look at our record. b) Jackson was proveably a poor coach. Look at his record across more than one season. c) He has no evidence to support his claim. d) We sacked him and he's bitter about his exit. e) He hasn't worked a proper NFL role since he was sacked - indicating he's not very good."

[RBshorty]

Shit.

[RBshorty]

Going Public about being payed to tank. This shot about to get real.!

[Far Cough]

"Commanders is fucking shit, who the fuck signed off on that? Should have gone with the Hogs, at least that has some resonance, still I'm sure someone would have been offended on behalf of pigs"

[Far Cough]

Forgot to say RIP Denny Green

[Far Cough]

"Denny Green was appointed head coach of the Vikes in 1992, if you're good enough, you'll get the gig, if you're shit, you wont"

[El Scorchio]

"Fully understand why redskins was axed. Commanders is a shit name, though. The new logo is god awful as well"

[Nutsin]

The Washington Commanders. Preferred the Redskins. All rather silly really.

[Northern Sold]

Good piece about the GoaT https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-10464679/How-Tom-Brady-went-slow-molasses-teen-player-greatest-quarterback-time.html

"I also fucking love the fact that Bill Belichick allegedly sent Flores a text message, congratulating him on getting the Giants gig, when he meant to send it to Brian Daboll at the Bills! I like both the fury that probably created in Flores, who is just going around accusing everybody under the sun of racist policies, and the fact that it belies Belichicks anti-Jets worldview: after his (admittedly poor) experience with the Jets, he would arguably congratulate Satan on getting a job with the 'other lot' in New York. Just read that Flores is suing the NFL, the three teams he interviewed with AND all 29 ""John Doe"" teams that did not interview him even for a cleaning job. What a fucking prick."

[southbankbornnbred]

"You never know with American courts, but I'd be surprised if Flores wins such a case. The NFL will be able to prove actual positive discrimination in FAVOUR of black candidates through the Rooney Rule. That's why it was set up. Guarantees a foot in the door at interviews which, in the NFL, has been a good thing. What you say when you're in there, if you come across as a dictatorial asshole who has alienated other staff and players, well, that's up to you and the potential employer... Flores needs to be careful, because other franchises will be wary of him after this. He's a good coach, but very ""my way or the highway"", a bit like Mourinho, so he alienates people. He went through staff and co-ordinators like a hot knife through butter in Miami. His problem is not his race - plenty of very good black coaches who get on with the franchise owners and GMs, coaches and players (Tomlin etc). Flores is his own problem."

[Nutsin]

Flores has filed a lawsuit against the NFL for racial discrimination. Apparently he didn't get the NY Giants job that he interviewed for. He said the interview was a sham. I bet that will set the cat among the pigeons.

That bonus must have kicked in at midnight. Brady must be mates with Sullivan.?
