Re: Least favorite season your team had?

Easy. 1992 for the Seahawks. Totally abysmal offense (I think the 'hawks averaged 7 or maybe 8 points on offense that year and I'm pretty sure that not ALL their points were scored by the offensive unit). They managed to beat N.E. early in the season and - miracle of miracles! - the Broncos in a lat...

Re: 2024 NFL Predictions

2024 NFL Predictions 3. Miami Dolphins (9-8): I’m not buying what the Dolphins are selling. They may be the hottest pick out there, but I just don’t see this team as a serious Super Bowl contender. - I'm with you 100% on this. AFC North 2. Baltimore Ravens (10-7): Until I see something different, I...

Re: Opening Weekend 2024 Season

As of right now it looks like a battle between CAR and the NYG for "worst team in the league" this season. Looks like Munich came up "snake eyes" on their game this season: https://brobible.com/sports/article/giants-panthers-munich-nfl-game-germany/ I'm with "Crazy Packers F...

Re: Looking At the Teams That Attempted to Threepeat

1980 Steelers I think of all the teams on this list, this one is the "oldest". The Steelers were past their prime, especially on defense. They had 18 sacks all year. Yeah, mention of the 1980 "Stillers" surprised me. I remember reading, once, that even Terry Bradshaw has admitte...

Re: 1985 Seattle Seahawks

My memory of 1985 is that expectations for the Seahawks going into the season were pretty high, presumably because they finished 12 - 4 (after a 12 - 2 start) the year before without the services of star RB Curt Warner (who blew a knee out in the season-opening rout of the CLE Browns). At least, tho...

Re: More fodder. . .

Results are in and for the most part the banning of the "hip-drop" tackle is NOT popular: https://www.yahoo.com/sports/jj-watt-li ... 14790.html

Re: More fodder. . .

I've not been one to complain, generally, about efforts to make the game safer but this might be a turning point for me: https://sports.yahoo.com/nfl-bans-hip-drop-tackle-despite-nflpas-objections-150902401.html I don't remember even hearing the term "hip-drop tackle" before last year. I s...

Re: PIT QB signings

Personally, I think that Russell still "has it" and if he can resemble in any form his SEA self and Justin Fields can learn from that then PIT should be in pretty good shape at QB for a while.

Re: 2021 QB draft class

This class was so hyped too. I never bought into Wilson, but I thought there was no way Jones would be worse than alright, especially after the first year. The biggest surprise might be Lawrence just being decent, though . T.L. had real issues with turning the ball over late last season and, like y...
