NFL 2025

And the Pats defeat the Bills on Sunday night football in front of the nation to end the Bills’ 4 game win streak. Lots of penalties and turnovers but the Pats come out on top as they concluded the game with a field goal. Pats 23 Bills 20

My Eagles play NY Giants tomorrow. I can't believe we have to be worried but we have not been playing well & NY has come alive? I hope not. At least the sports bar will be quiet & I can eat a good burger & fries to numb our possible loss.

And I think MANY are surprised at what the Giants did to Philly...

Sorry to go off topic a bit but not worth starting a new thread. GO NAVY in college football. To me this is big as I'm medically retired Navy and follow the team. Navy is now 6-0 on the season. In today's game against Temple they went down by 7 with like a minute and a half left. They rallied and went down the field to score a touchdown.

The extra point try was not done to tie the game. They went for the two point conversion and made it with a great catch for the win.

I don't know what to say about my Browns except that they have no offense and the offensive play calling is bad.

Receivers are dropping balls left and right. A rookie QB in only his second start throws the ball more than fifty times. Shoot, Browns have the ball first and goal on the Stealers' four yard line and don't run the ball even once. This is bad play calling ending in a field goal. When you have a young runner that hits the line hard you run the danged ball.

At least rookie QB, Gabriel, is doing better than Flacco. In four games Flacco had eight turnovers while Gabriel, in two games, has none.

While some scores don't look like it the Browns defense is playing well enough to win but when the defense is on the field twice as long as the offense the defense is eventually going to fail.

The officials are not helping either. Cleveland is expected to lose so almost all calls go against the Browns. As an example Cleveland got a running into the kicker penalty on a Steelers' punt that led to the Steelers' first TD. The Browns' player was clearly blocked into the kicker which, by rule, negates the penalty yet it is still ruled a penalty against the Browns. I'm really not using such calls as an excuse as it has been the case for just about forever. It is just human nature for officials to be biased toward a team that wins against a team that loses. Whether conscious or not the officials just expect the team that tends to lose to be in the wrong.

LOL! I still love my Browns but they sure can be frustrating.

Dang, a very bad week for Philly in all sports. NFL, MLB play offs & even NHL opener all loses.

Eagles really need to mix up their plays. 1st down run, 2nd run/pass option, 3rd pass, 4th, tush push if close. They seem to have a couple novel plays in 1st half but then nothing else later. We need a better offensive coach & faster QB reads. If we protect QB all our receivers are double covered.

We sure are not looking "super" so far this year. Injuries we should have known were happening to our O-line for a few years now & we have some practice players to try out. But we seem stuck on using the usual not ready for prime timers. Ugh!

We play NY again in 2 weeks, Their rookie QB & RB are looking too good.

There were some good games yesterday, and some that made you want to change the channel, yeah I'm looking at you Jets/Broncos.
