Re: NFL Off Topic

How to you schedule 7 playoff teams? One team bye?

Re: NFL Off Topic

See, that's why I didn't post it until Rob mentioned them because I too had nothing to back it up!

I just knew you'd been incognito for awhile and would be the only one to prove me wrong lol.

Figures you show up on a Manning verse Brady night lol.

Ha, somehow I missed Rob's post. But no that was a good offensive line. Ryan Lilja and Jake Scott were solid guards for us as well. I miss those days. Now we have guys like Mike McGlynn who can't block toddlers.

And you know I can't miss Manning vs Brady!

Re: NFL Off Topic

I think that was the suggestion, yeah. Hardest part is scheduling 6 games on wildcard weekend.

More playoff teams? No.

Why not?

I don't see much of a downside, you just eliminate one bye.


This season aside, the issue with regards to sub .500 records has never been with regards to the wildcard teams but usually happens when you have a terrible division.

Re: NFL Off Topic

I feel bad for Texans fans. They go from having a team poised to take a run to a team that's floundering and lose to the Jags.

Yikes.....If Kubiak keeps his job after this season then he's got some incriminating material of Bob McNair.

Re: NFL Off Topic

I understand the "want" people have for 7 team playoffs but on the flip side, do you really NEED 7 teams?

What's the argument to not keep it at 6?

Eh, there really is none.

I just think with all the changes the NFL has made it wouldn't surprise me if they added an extra playoff game and of all the changes they've made this is probably the last one I would have much of an argument against.

Re: NFL Off Topic

Not a big deal, it's only one more team per conference and this year is a bit of an anomaly with the way the AFC is going.

I think it would be a good thing.

And with all of those teams involved, at least one COULD end up 10-6... let alone 9-7. It's really not all that shocking at this point.

Another big game for the NFL to market. It's amazing how perfect everything is (was) for the NFL, yet they won't just leave it alone.

Re: NFL Off Topic

The league is already diluted and pissing a lot of people off. The playoff system is one of the few things about the league that remains good. Don't **** with it.

Re: NFL Off Topic

So what do people think...Bon Jovi and MLSE(company that owns the Leafs(who are worth over a billion dollars),Raptors among other teams) working together to buy the Bills if they become for sale.

I think this would be the best chance for Canada to get a NFL team. MLSE is owned by the 2 dominant companies in the country(they control everything,phone market,cable/satellite market,internet market) so money being available to buy them isn't gonna be the issue.

Only issue will just be a stadium(since the Jays don't want a football team at Rogers Centre(they're already kicking out the CFL Argos in a few years)). Don't know if they'll find an area in the city to build a 70,000+ seat stadium. If they do, it better be convertible roof, cause you know weather will be insanely cold for November-December.

Re: NFL Off Topic

^lol. But if any NFL team was going to move, I'd want it to be the Jags. Franchise hasn't been good, attendance sucks, too many teams in Florida. Get them out of there and let them go to a city where they'll make money like crazy, regardless if they win or lose.

Re: NFL Off Topic

I gave my feelings on the Bon Jovi thing in the Bills thread. Let's just say i'm not happy.
