I barely count as a part timer, but like most sports I think it rewards the amount of time you invest in following it.
Just caught up on youtube. Seemed to me to be a couple of pretty egregious reffing moments. The missed facemask and the not holding very much holding call. I guess they kind of cancelled themselves out. Do these cause much post-game angst in the US ?

I lasted until the end of the first quarter, then it was
Caught the snap highlights. I briefly saw a face-mask style "penalty" by the WR for the Bengals but not called? Maybe that is what Sharkie was on about above.

The future is bright with Burrow and that receiving corps but they need an offensive line. They are not in the top three teams in the AFC - things just went right for them in the final two months - if Lamar Jackson of the Ravens does not get hurt, the Bengals don't even make the playoffs. But they have the key pieces in place at this stage.
We did several features on Sky about why people support their teams and that WKRP reference came up a couple of times. For me, the first game I ever saw on C4 in 1982 featured the Bucs beating Miami and I thought "that team in orange must be pretty good, I'll support them".... 14 straight losing seasons later. Nick Halling became a Steeler fan for the same reason the previous week. And he's spent 40 years freezing his ass off in Pittsburgh whilst I get a sun tan.

Social media will lose its mind over it just like football here. The facemask/push-off that led to Higgins' touchdown was a bad missed call but it happens in all sports. There are moron Buc fans out there who are still posting comments about the NFL paying the refs to fix the game for the Rams to beat the Bucs a month ago.

I'm sure the Saints fans are still moaning about the missed PI call 4 years ago in the NFC Champs game

Yes but that was against Sean Payton which negates any inconsistency ;-)

The Bucs will be playing a home regular season game in Munich this coming season. Their opponents have not yet been announced although Putin is rumoured to be interested.

And now the Seahawks have released Bobby Wagner. Both Wilson and him drafted in 2012. Things did need to change. Will be interesting though

Denver also gave up the rights to the coaches' first-born children, all of their Netflix account passwords, some chocolate cake and all the cash in their pockets. That trade is the sort of thing you only see in fantasy leagues.

Seahawks have done a great bit of business to start a rebuild.
Denver just love trading for a QB, seems a strange move to me though. They'll need a handful of talented FA's to make the latter stages of the playoffs - even with Wilson!

I thought that Seattle probably could have got more draft picks if they pushed? Also, is Carroll up for a rebuild at 70?

I wonder what Green Bay will now do with Jordan Love - no use him sitting round for another 3/4 years, especially as he will be up for his 2nd contract at that point with hardly any action.
Wonder if Seattle might have a look as they can't be that in love (no pun intended) with Drew Lock?
