2024 NFL Discussion

If they turn out to be good games I'll just watch them this evening on the NFL Network. They will be shown starting at 6:30 PM Mountain Time.

there's nothing like watching football games in real time before you know the final score

Ya, I know but I'd be mostly just listening anyway.

Must say that it wasn't the best Steelers performance I've ever seen... or listened to.

Ravens looking good so far. Glad Pittsburgh lost.

I have to say that I was sort of pulling for the Steelers just due to the same division as my Browns. Also, while a rivalry, there is also a bit of respect between the two team's fan base.

Now, with the Ravens... I guess, just due to their actually being the Browns before the move to Baltimore, it is somehow different. If the Steelers and Ravens were playing I'm sure that I'd pull for the Steelers unless a Ravens win helped the Browns.

As to the Christmas Day games? I'm glad that I didn't bother reactivating my Netflix account to watch instead of just doing the radio broadcasts. I found neither game at all interesting as I'm not a fan of blowouts which both games really were. Unless there is nothing else on I won't even bother watching the replays of the games on the NFL Network later.

In my opinion the only think of interest with either game was the Ravens' Jackson setting the NFL record for career rushing yards for a QB.

Pittsburgh’s loss to KC helps the Ravens. And the Ravens win over the Texans made the day sweet win win.

Yeh .. two one sided games… i stopped watching the ravens at halftime… watching Tulsa King instead

 

[gwand]

When the Ravens are winning I like one sided games. Less anxiety! LOL

Best Sunday of the season for Browns fans. We now get to wash our Browns' shirts to hang up until next season...

Patriots/Bills game on Sunday. The Bills have already locked in #2 seed in the AFC so they will rest some players.
The Pats have no real reason to win as they jeopardize getting the #1 draft pic. Do you really think they would want to win?

Looking forward to the playoffs.

The Pats can't do anything right.
The Pats are so bad, they can't even lose when it would benefit them to get the first draft pick. They end the season with 4 wins and 13 losses. They could have gotten the first draft pic if they lost...now they may end up getting the 4th draft pic.

The next enhancer for professional sports in the post testosterone era. You heard it hear first.

I hear what you say but the level of competition and pride makes it hard to not do everything you can to win.

The Ravens are sure playing great football. I am so happy they are playing to their potential. Go Ravens!!!!
