I like Love and think he’ll be good, but after Farve and Rodgers, I’d love greenbay to see what other franchises have to deal with.

Love looks like garbage most of the time.

No worries. We've heard for years that Belichick is the best coach of all time. Surely he can work around a mediocre qb and isn't dependent on having the best qb of all time on his team

He already proved that the year Brady went out the first play of the season.

Ticket sales for this Sunday's Chiefs game have spiked, presumably by "Swifties" buying them up on the belief that Taylor Swift will be at the game.

They are killing independent George.
Kind of amazing that the Gen Zers will pay extra to watch a celebrity cheer in a luxury box but they won’t pay for cable.

You mean the year when they missed the playoffs? If that's proving it, I wonder how happy New England fans will be to cheer hard fought 7-10 third in the division seasons?

They were 11-5 and in any other year would have made the playoffs, he did quite well coaching Matt Freaking Cassell that year. I'm not getting into a pissing match with people who think Belichick sucks as a coach without Brady because it's stupid.

Good for him. Every year they did anything worth cheering about under Belichick, Brady was under center. Post Patriots, Brady has a ring. Post Brady, Belichick has mediocre records.

I mean, I didn't watch the game but his stat line didn't look miserable or anything. :shrug: The two INTs aren't good, but QBs just tend to throw more of those in their first 10-20 career starts.

From the looks of it, Green Bay's defense didn't exactly hold up their end.

Pretty garbage of their fans to be booing that.  Wasn't a good game for them at all, but it's nothing compared to what happened to the Command-skins or the Broncos last weekend.

Maybe they can have a new fantasy movie where one of those teams wins a Super Bowl.

It depends, is Caleb Bryce Young or is he Trevor Lawrence?

(Chicago can still win via the panthers even if they screw up and win a couple)

What I noticed was the number of people with 'London Jaguars' flags - given how touchy most teams / venues are about such things (WNFF banner, for example) there must have been something of an official 'nod and wink' to it. They weren't homemade, either - official designs but with 'London' replacing 'Jacksonville'... ;)

Current dispute with the city over a new stadium. I’m sure the NFL is happy to make Jacksonville politicians sweat

Yes - I remind everyone that his long term plan was always to have the Jags as either an outright London franchise, or a split with Jacksonville. He's already built the only full NFL accredited standard training facility outwith the US. And Spurs didn't spend all that money to make their stadium fully NFL accredited for nothing. COVID has pushed back the timetable, but the gossip here is still for '28 - '29 for it to happen. Jags playing two London games this year - that will rise. Then we'll get the booth crews saying 'hey - we should start calling them the London Jaguars...' It's been speculated, over here, that if Khan had been successful with his bid to buy Wembley, then the Jags would be here already...
