Not a Detroit guy here, and agree. Too bad the Lions didn't do the same for Barry Sanders. Arguably one of the top ten running backs ever in the NFL and Hall of Famer who never made it to the Super Bowl.
What a damn' shame.
I do not think that it is Tom Brady’s last game...I think that he will come back next season...
So there should be a couple of rule changes to help the defense to bring more of a competitive balance in games.
It's just me but I do not like arena football style shootout between teams. Give me old school gridiron football. The way it is meant to be played.
Now I'm off my soapbox.
It’s INSANE I tell you!!
How many here thought of the Pats comeback against the Falcons while watching this?
Every game this weekend ended on a walk off play.
Good grief you people are brainwashed. And weak. Thanks for continuing to fund our enemies, I guess? Pathetic simps.
Ditto.
It’s good to know that we can count on you people fighting the good fight against communism, except when the sportsball is on the TEEVEE.
Ditto.
I heard that too.
F%#$ing insanity and lies.
Sanders was the only offensive weapon the Lions had. You're right, it was a damn shame.
"In the final game of the 1990 season, Sanders needed 168 yards to finish as the league's rushing champion. With a comfortable lead against the Atlanta Falcons and 158 yards in the game, Barry told head coach Wayne Fontes to put in his backup, "Coach, let's just win it and go home."
That's what Fontes did, and Christian Okoye of the Kansas City Chiefs won the rushing title by 10 yards."
And they did not even tell us who advanced.
They sound more like basketball games, than football.
So that is 3 of the 4 games were won at the end?
Is there an edict out for ‘exciting finishes’ so that the boors can win back audiences? Seems like we just need to tune in for the last three minutes of these ‘exciting’ games and skip the three hour drone fest.
Buffalo played the last seconds idiotically. When the second pass was caught the defense should have allowed the receiver to continue his run, rather than tackle him. He would not have scored and the game would have been over.
Where is the proof? Where is the study, with the data, proving specious declaration? I am so angry about this that I want to write the NFL asking for documentation. But I’d bet my last dollar that they’re just spewing something believing no one will challenge it and so if they repeat it enough people will believe it as fact.
The alternative is they say this based upon some garbage left-wing “study” with worthless data. I get angry every time they play that because you just intuitively know that’s just flat-out false.
I’ll tell you where they get that number. The same way they come up with the claim that females make 70% of what males do for the same work. You compare apples to oranges.
You start with the average starting salary of white college grads from all schools, which include the Ivy League and other prestigious universities. Many of those will have stem or business degrees. A larger percentage will go into higher paying jobs in business management, engineering, finance, and the like. You might include Asians in this too for good measure.
Then you compare that number to the average salary of black graduates, which will include a lot of state schools and historically black colleges. Many of these will include ethnic studies, PE majors, or other fields that don’t pay as much. Their starting jobs will have a higher proportion of teaching and coaching jobs, or positions outside their major study area because they can’t find any jobs.
There won’t be a comparison of majors, GPA, or quality of the schools. Hell they might even lump in advanced degrees too which probably skews more toward whites. In any case I guarantee that any black grad from the same school with the same major with the same experience and the same GPA will get paid MORE than a white grad for the same position.
Insane walkoff endings??? Check out the Bills-Chiefs game.
How could a Freeper watch BLM/NFL?
Black anthem and all?
Kiss my white arse.
All Lives Matter or none does.
I posted about sports in the FR sports section.
Don’t really care what the childish haters who can’t separate sports and politics think about that.
Social justice activism has no place in sports.
The NFL hates you white boy.
Let’s go Brandon.
