January 23, 20232 yr Starting to wonder if all the playoff teams should get a week off between regular season and playoffs. Might result in a lot better games in the playoffs...

The quality of the game drops off so badly in December as we lose starters and end up with guys who were roofing houses or in practice squads a month earlier in starting roles.

Points to an under. Which means it’ll probably go over
January 23, 20232 yr Starting to wonder if all the playoff teams should get a week off between regular season and playoffs. Might result in a lot better games in the playoffs... Nope. Networks won’t allow it. League doesn’t want it. Gives losing teams another week advantage. Delays in coaching fills.

January 23, 20232 yr Another good thing that failed was the NFL’s beta test for an offsite AFC Championship. I’m supremely glad that blew up in their face. Glad that the Bengals were insulted. For all the bitching that people do about NFL being rigged and creating their narrative and executing it the Bengals told them to fuck off. Judging from the reactions of most everyone…no one thought the offsite game was a good idea. That won’t stop Roger and the NFL from trying it again but at least Burrow (Joe Cool/IceMan) and Cincy blew that up this year. This pleases me and I hope they go on to win the SB.

The roster needs to be 60 active guys, everyone active. Why the hell does the active rule exist anyway??
January 23, 20232 yr why the hell is an active gameday roster still only 46 players??? The roster needs to be 60 active guys, everyone active. Why the hell does the active rule exist anyway??Cheap ass owners, weak ass players union.
January 23, 20232 yr With the current practice squad rules it isn't far from that now. They league allows 46 active on game day because that's the league's owners general consensus on what they actually need to suit up. The reserve stock they have now is far more expansive than the league has ever had before. And they're probably going to expand it again to add a third emergency qb option.

Suppose the PK is hurt in game, the backup PK doesn't need to be activated to kick the game winner, otherwise the team loses.
January 23, 20232 yr Yeah, to me, some sort of Practice Squad Dress out Activation makes most sense to me. You activate the player from the Practice Squad on game day? They get a bonus or something. But the thin ass rosters is brutal.
January 23, 20232 yr 37 minutes ago, DougO said: And they're probably going to expand it again to add a third emergency qb option. I think the league should require tems to have former QBs of each franchise on-site during their games. That way, if QB1 and QB2 go down, bring in the gimp!
January 23, 20232 yr but if they are inactive, it's useless. I say activate everyone, even the practice squad. Suppose the PK is hurt in game, the backup PK doesn't need to be activated to kick the game winner, otherwise the team loses. The 53 gets a game check regardless of active /inactive. They can elevate 2 PS players each week with no penalty. Still 46 actives. So the 46 is an arbitrary number to park injured players without IR. I think they should go 50 game active and 58 total plus 16 PS. The union doesn’t want expansion as it dilutes their pie.

It's slavery.
January 24, 20232 yr They have always had limits. When I was a kid the 53 was just 40 players. How is it slavery? If you’re on the 53 you get a game check whether active or not and those games count towards pension. Usually they are injured players you don’t want to put on ir.So what is the status of dinged up players that can’t go? Are they on the 53 and not playing? It’s not as simple as having all 53 play.
January 24, 20232 yr Slavery my ass. Pretty sure you can quit if you don’t like it. Doesn’t seem like slaves had that option. Also there’s the whole getting paid thing which I don’t think slaves had either. But maybe I’m misreading.
January 24, 20232 yr Parlay'ed the Fecals and Bungles and the points. Gonna be an interesting superb owl if those two teams get through. Edited January 24, 20232 yr by Zeus

Eagles are your Superbowl champ. Hurts' shoulder is still bothering him. Apparently, the 45-yard pass he threw early Sunday was the first pass he's thrown anywhere NEAR THAT FAR (ADDED thru EDIT) since the injury. And the Eagles didn't throw another one after that. I still can't wrap my mind around Hurts leading a team to a Super Bowl win so I'm still going with the Bengals to win it all. Whoever survives the next two weeks will have earned it. This is as salty a Final Four as I can remember. Edited January 24, 20232 yr by C-Man

I liked the Bengals and Cowboys. And the first 24 years of the Super Bowl there were only 5 interesting games. And the Bengals or Cowboys lost all of them. Then Buffalo lost by 1 and it was another 10 years before there was an interesting Super Bowl. The Bengals and Cowboys have each lost 3 Super Bowls and they all have been interesting games. So if the Bengals get there and its close, expect the other team to win.

Using that word in reference to *any* occupation that pays what these players make is so far beyond the pale. I always wonder how anyone who was actually enslaved would feel about that comparison. Playing in the NFL isn't just a privilege, it's about as much a privilege as one can hope/dream for.
