The NFL Thread

[03ozwhip]

Has anyone been following any of the playoffs? Who's tour team, what's your prediction?

I've never watched a whole NFL game in my life.

But I know I don't like the Patriots.

Spoken like a true nfl "fan" lol I dont like watching CFL, boring as fuck to me. There gotta be some people on here though, no?

I like football as a sport just fine, great spectator game.

I find the CFL a more palatable league to follow, bonus points that I can actually hit a few games a year without mortgaging the house.

NFL seems to require dedication of a large chunk of your life to even enjoy as per the “fan” comments.

[ExtraSlow]

NFL is fun to watch, but I'm not any kind of fan. Watch maybe three games a year, but just whatever team. Do enjoy that Mahomes kid, he's dynamic as fuck.

[03ozwhip]

I try and keep my sundays open for football, but doesnt always work out. I'm a raiders fan for my whole life, but always disappointed lol

Mahomes got robbed last year and I am hoping he takes it this year, even though Chiefs are my teams sworn enemy, they are also my second team lol

[ExtraSlow]

I would like to watch more NFL, but I don't have three hours a weekend to watch any kind of TV.

[Thaco]

watched the seahawks game today, i'll occasionally watch the playoffs, the pro bowl is pretty fun to watch as well. don't really follow it too much though

I watch just enough to know i hate that arrogant prick Brady.

[beyond_ban]

As a Broncos fan i don't have much skin in the game for these playoffs, but i still try to watch as much as possible. I was kind of rooting for the Eagles as an underdog story but that came to a halt tonight. As long as the Chiefs don't win i will be happy.

Ok so, Brady...he is an arrogant, sore loser...no one can deny that, but, he is also mid way down of the lowest paid QBs right now, that's because he just wants to have a winning team,he takes pay cuts just for that reason, thats how much of a sore loser he is lol

Anyways, he is a free agent as of his last game of the year and speculations say that hes still not retiring, but probably wont stay with the Pat's....

I will gladly welcome him to my Raiders for a 1 year deal, just in time for the new Vegas arena lol any thoughts?

I hate you already.

The NFL is King of NA sports. The short season, story lines, etc. Any given fkn Sunday.

Edelman dropping 3rd and 6th
Bad luck Bills choking
Carson Wentz just can't stay healthy for the life of him
Captain Kirk upsetting Easy Breesy

Can't wait until next weekend.

You get it. I wont be around to watch anything next weekend fml. I'll have to just scour highlights. What do you think brady is going to do?

[Buster]

It seems so Canadian to cheer for someone else's city team in a sport.

[dirtsniffer]

I'm a big NFL fan. This weekend and next weekend are my favorite time of the year for sports.

[max_boost]

I’m a casual fan and couldn’t even tell you all the positions or any of the formations etc. It’s just so entertaining and blows the CFL out of the water. Anyway, I think that’s it for Brady. What a career tho but who knows, maybe he signs on for one more year somewhere else. Is @5hift still around I think that’s his user. 49ers fan and I remember him really knowing his stuff.

[rx7boi]

I'm a Green Bay fan but haven't actually had time to sit down and enjoy a game in years.

[ibeast]

Big NFL guy here, Saints game was the most surprising game over the weekend I had them winning the SB. Only team I see Brady going to is the Chargers, at this point in his life I don't see him going to some random city like Tampa but who knows.

They're predicting chargers. Based on nothing at all, hes going to the raiders lol

Hes pretty much(without saying it) said hes not retiring. He can go anywhere he wants.

As far as the actual game itself, neither league blows the other out of the water - they are both entertaining in their own way. I can sit down and and enjoy a game from either league and they are very much different games. Is the NFL a more polished and slicker presentation, it sure as hell is and maybe that is what some people need as a part of their game viewing experiance.

Three downs versus four, the size of the scrimmage zone, rouge versus no rouge points, movement before the snap, etc, etc, the games are really quite a bit different then many people realize. What I do dislike, and this goes for many sports, is how much is getting reviewed now plus how much more gentlemanly many sports are becoming. Is it really all that bad to have badasses in sports now a days? Badasses are quickly becoming a relic, hell, how I'd love to see a Tim Hunter on the Flames these days or even a Theo Felury - those guys were not the vanilla flavoured pansies that are all too common in sport today.
