NFL 2020

Bucs at Football Team - we got turned over in 2005 by an under-manned and un-rated Washington team with Mark Brunell playing QB. Bucs are on a serious roll offensively right now. Has to be Tampa Bay.
Rams at Seahawks - the unknown back-up or Jared Goff with a busted finger. Either one - same result - Seattle.
Bears at Saints - the Trubiskaholics will be in their element - but it won't be enough - Saints are too good on defense- even Payton's ego can't screw this one up - New Orleans.

Colts at Bills - Buffalo have lost only three games - two on covid-short weeks, the other on the Hail Murray - they are awesome right now - Buffalo.
Browns at Steelers - nice to see Cleveland back in the playoffs for the first time since Neil Reynolds had hair - but that was their high point - Pittsburgh.
Ravens at Titans - Baltimore have gone back to running the ball down everyone's throats in December and will do so again against the Jekyll & Hyde Titan defense - Baltimore.

Seems home advantage counts for little with such diddy crowds. Seattle loss a surprise but that Rams defence is tough.
Wonder what Beckham jnr thinks about Browns success - jealous or happy? Do you get a superbowl ring for playing any game of a winning season or do you have to play in the SB itself?
 
Any player/official on the roster for part of the regular season gets a ring. That includes IR for the season players. I remember the Bucs having a whole issue in 2002 over G Russ Hochstein who played one game early in the season. The Bucs actually did rings for everyone in their organisation. I think the NFL pays for 90.

No-one saw that Browns result coming - not with half their coaching staff in quarantine. The Rams win was down to their defense. Seattle and Pittsburgh got found out as "good in October" teams.

I did.

In the last 5 weeks, only played 1 half of good football. Losing to the Bungals, Soccer team and the Browns. I really don't know why the odds were in there favour that heavily.

I think the hype over the 11-0 start had totally died down and they were being seen as a long way behind the Chiefs and Bills in the AFC Power Rankings. But the Browns had so many things going against them - the line went four points in Pittsburgh's favour in the second half of last week. But 28-0 in the first quarter? Just wow. Pleased for Browns fans - they've waited a long time for this.

Did like the tweet a friend of mine sent out about wanting to know what channel the Patriots' playoff game was being shown on.
 
Todd Bowles will get one of the head coaching jobs, as will Arthur Smith and Brian Daboll. The others are up in the air - most of the highly sought after co-ordinators are still coaching in the playoffs. They can do limited interviews but their current employment in the 2020 post-season takes priority.

Surprised Dan Quin got the Dallas DC job. The way Jerry Jones thinks of himself as an expert on everything, he could have appointed himself. Dallas won three Super Bowls because of Jimmy Johnson and the players he drafted. They've done diddly squat since - interfering owner syndrome.

Sharky - how do Dallas "get rid" of Jerry, apart from a big bag, some concrete and a fishing boat? It is like UK football in that we have to wait until he retires, or is bought out?

The only way he is leaving is in a coffin but hes really really old (78) and is in the decade of death, so its getting more probable

They don't. Owners pass teams on to their families when they die. Normally the sons like Jim Irsay taking over from the infamous Robert in Indianapolis but the Rams did wind up with Georgia Frontiere as owner after Carroll Rosenbloom died in 1979. She was the legend who was told about her top player becoming a free agent, commented "well if he only has a free agent can't we pay for him to have a proper one". She really was a few bricks short of a load.
 
PS, I see the Crimson Tide aka Alabama have smashed it again. Have they any stand out players who will be top draft choices.

That aside, good to see BB of the pats telling the Orange headed one to get lost re his upcoming award. Wonder if he will be offered one under the new POTUS.
 
Half the players in the Alabama v Ohio State game will be 1st round picks. QB Justin Fields of the Buckeyes will go No.2 behind Trevor Lawrence of Clemson. WR Davonta Smith from Alabama is one of the best receivers in years and could go No.3 to Miami. RB Najee Harris will probably be a 1st rounder even though analytics tell teams not to draft backs in the first round.

very suprised to see RB not drafted in the first round. Be very interested to see who the Pats have. Surely they are desperate for a QB.
 
I really don't get into draft forecasting at all. The so-called self-proclaimed "expert", Mel Kiper Jr, is even higher on my nob list than Piers Morgan and Lewis Hamilton. Even on the actual day of the draft, I have only a little knowledge of the top prospects and who the Bucs are likely to take.

There’s a knob higher than Piers Morgan ?
How comes the USA have the best knobs.

Davonta Smith, WR will be a top 3 pick. Won the Heisman and had a hell of a game the other day.
