NFL 2025-2026

Lions played a beautiful game last night on both sides of the ball. Their running game was magnificent, as was their defense. Yes, they gave up 30 points, but as the announcers and stats guys mentioned, Jackson is incredibly accurate, has great receivers, and with him and Henry in the backfield they are always a risk for home run running plays. Every time they play I always wonder how anyone can beat them, and yet often enough, other teams find a way.

Check out the Scoobyhawks, off and running. Way to go McDonald.

Well, the Steelers are in sole possession of the AFC North and they might actually be the best team at this point.

Which is tantamount to being the tallest dude in Munchkin Land.

“We thank you very sweetly
For 9 and 8 so neatly
And doing it so completely “

Yep. Burrow is out, and now likely Jackson.
This'll be the easiest 9-8, and maybe even 10-7, season ending with a first round playoff blowout loss in Tomlin's long running quest for consistent mediocrity.

Bengals.... come on Red's, it's now up to you...

At least this season the Fins aren't teasing me into thinking they can go anywhere.
Finally won their first game against an 0-4 team. And lost Tyreek Hill in the process.

Yep. Burrow is out, and now likely Jackson.

And half of the Raven's starting defense.

F'n Yuck! Love was awful

I'm glad I didn't watch that game. The Packers O-line is banged up, so the game against Dallas was better, but they only managed to tie. Ugh!

This was one of those big oops TV moments for me. I thought it was over when Dallas scored and left 43 seconds on the clock. So I flipped over to something else. Then I saw the tie score the next morning.

In today's world, having an NFL game end in a tie is just bizarro... really can't believe thats even an option... how...why....just stupid

Agree. Play until someone wins.

rough on gamblers too i would imagine....again bizarro world, lol

Have a FG kicking contest, keep adding 10 yards and let'm go at it, kinda like soccer

Yeah. A kind of a twist in the shootout like soccer or hockey. Great idea.

110% with you on this one.
So lame to commit three hours to a game and then no one wins.

Consider the competition, though.

Except that the kickers have to be offensive linemen. Shades of Lou Groza.

If it's like soccer they would have to rotate through five players who were on the field for the last play, then keep going down the list if it's still a tie.

To me a tie might as well make me wonder why I watched. Vaunted D was a flop. Love generally looked good except last drive.

The play calling on that last play was suspect, IMO. Love threw into double coverage. Terrible.
