    Re: NFL 2016-17 II: Playoffs, Super Bowl, and Offseason

    One nice thing about living here where the NFL has almost no exposure, I never watch ESPN and the sports channels here don't talk about it at all, is that I don't have anything preventing me from simply waking up Monday a.m. to watch the game without influence. The NFL is what it is but in the end it is just a football game. I'm spared the hype (don't even get to see the commercials during the broadcast) and am left with nothing more than the game.

      I don't have cable or satellite TV, so I'm not seeing much of the hype either, just a little during morning radio. It's been nice these last couple years. Someone actually had to remind me that the game happens this weekend.

            More like they already made the offer and are now like "Sh !t, any way we can back out of this and not have to pay the guy?"

            Shanahan has his issues, but I'm struck by Quinn's failures as well. Thought there was way to much showboating going on by the Falcons with the game only half over. Reminded me a lot of Seattle, where he came from, acting like the game was over when they went up by 10 on the Pats. I'm also questioning his substitutions because after going balls to the wall for the 1st half the team seemed totally tanked mid way through the 3rd quarter. I've seen teams give up when losing big (SD, Buffalo) in the SB but have never seen a team with a big lead completely exhausted with 1 1/2 quarters to go and offering no resistance up and down the field.

              My only surprise is the Skins didn't try to get him back.

              BTW, in these photos RG3 looks like Treach. Treach is 46.

                Blair Walsh signs with Seattle. Hauschka is a FA.

                  Best of luck to Blair Walsh, but that's a questionable move with the way Walsh kicked this past season.

                      To be fair, Seattle is 1-0 in the playoffs against the Vikings during the Blair Walsh era thanks to Blair Walsh.

                        So who's giving the Pats a #1 pick for Jimmy G?

                          Cleveland might be stupid enough to give up their 2nd pick(1&12) in the 1st round but I think the Patriots will get a 2nd rounder.
                          A bad cause requires many words.

                            Peter King makes a good point. At some point TB12 is going to go Steve Blass. Jimmy G can run the same offense effectively. I'd keep him and trade Brisset.

                              I would too, as everybody would like to see a Montana to Young or even Favre to Rodgers transition. Problem is Garappolo is a free agent at the end of next year. Assuming Brady plays 3 more years until he's 42, the Pats would have to pay him a pretty good chunk of change to hold a clipboard for two more years. Maybe he does that instead of running for his life in Cleveland and winning two games a year. We shall see...

                                Trade him for what, an 8th round pick?
