Parity?
Think I'll start looking at who the Giants will draft in the top 5 to get me in a good mood.
Ravens game starting out OK so far.
It's not exactly a beautiful game in the neighborhood, a beautiful game for a beauty...
Hot mic!
The coordinator being referenced, for those unaware, is Brian Schottenheimer.
SMH.

Alex Collins made that game harder than it had to be.
Speaking of Seattle, here's Earl Thomas flipping off the Seattle sideline as he is carted off, in what will likely be his final act as a Seattle Seahawk.
I will never understand why Seattle turned down Dallas's 2nd round offer on Thomas. He was obviously unhappy, and Seattle was obviously not going to invest in keeping him. I would have taken that pick and run.
I was wishing KC had made that offer.

I was watching some of that game thinking. Do the Packers need to make that offer? Then he broke his leg.
I'm going to assume statistically speaking it's probably not smart to sit an entire season to get a better deal but Leveon Bell is probably at home right now feeling much better about his decision.
Whenever it comes to these things I always feel for the players. Also I'm surprised (not really) at how abrasive some commentators are plants for the owners.
Observation from the Ravens/Steelers game:
I guess defense still matters.
Cleveland: Also saving defeat from the jaws of a draw.
Can we fire the head coach that in three years hasn't won on a Sunday?

A case of bad timing: The #Seahawks had lowered their asking price for star S Earl Thomas, the #Chiefs were focused on clearing cap space for a possible trade... then Thomas fractured his leg.
There is a video of the conversation at the link. Man, why did Seattle put him on the field in that situation?
So what's changed? I know it's a smaller sample size but why I receivers get open so much more this year compared to last year? I can't think of any rules changes that should have affected this.
tldr Jeff Fischer is out of the league
I think the next step., which seems to be starting, is a more aggressive philosophy on 4th downs. At some point, it's going to become obvious that going for it on 4th down makes sense in far more circumstances than we are used to. In addition too it becoming easier to pick up that 4th down, even a 4th and 5, teams are going to start understanding that high scoring games means they need to be more aggressive.
Both of the OT 4th down calls would never have been made before. Some of the same analytics that have gone into changing baseball and basketball strategies have the same impact in football. And if the numbers continue to be as vastly different as they have been, strategies have to change.
25+ years later and I still have no idea what they hell they yell during defensive stops in Denver.
This Chiefs team goes 13-3 and loses to the 11-5 Patriots in the divisional round because Reid will call 60 pass plays after going down 10-0 in the first quarter. I hate it because it’s going to happen.
How is Genesis sponsoring the halftime show when they haven't put out an album in forever?
