2024-25 NFL Season

[Doc Holliday]

I am neutral in this game! But WOW first series of play and a critical blown call by the refs! Incredible!!!!

Don't know why Siriani and the Eagles don't just walk off the field!!!

Wonder how much sportsbetting is influencing the refs!!!

All week long i was going to put a $100 wager on the Chiefs. They always find a way to win & usually get bad calls going their way. Then prior to the game i wstched Trump’s interview on state tv & when asked he said he picked the Chiefs to win mostly because the annoying Britanny Mahomes was maga & one of his supporters. So i my mind & decided to put $1000 on the Eagles as my last wager until next season. Go Eagles!

The Eagles pass rush has been ruthless and relentless!!!!

I am trying to understand how the Eagles were able to draft the 4 best defensive players on Georgia's back to back national championship team- Jalen Carter, Jordan Davis, Nolan Smith, and Nakobe Dean (out for year), all of whom were beasts at Georgia and are now beasts in the NFL. How did this happen? Getting the best 4 guys on the defense of a back to back national champion which won those championships with defense?

...and get the steal of the year in running back Barkley as well. As far as the Eagles able to pick those Georgia defensive players, well it's a combination of great scouting and poor scouting by the competition!!!
Rams did the same by drafting two of the best college defensive pass rushers in Fisk and Verse both from FSU...with Verse voted Defensive Rookie of the Year.

Well looks like Brittany Mahomes is gonna have to ask the NFL Commish and Trump to MCGA...Make Chiefs Great Again!!! lol! lol!...

Let's see what the refs come up with in the 2nd half!

Going into the game I thought the Eagles had a way better team and better players but that the Chiefs have better coaches. I still believe that but wondering what Reid and Spags can do at this point. The KC OL is getting abused like they were when TB and Brady hammered them a few years ago.

 

[sharkman]

The only strategy the Chiefs can adopt the rest of the game is go no huddle and hope they get some calls from the refs go their way!!!
It's the only way they can slow down the Eagles pass rush!!!!
They are capable of getting 3 TDs this way and hope their defense holds the Eagles offense. A slight hope still exists for the Chiefs!

The Chiefs offensive line is getting confused with the Eagles pass rush crossing stunts inside!!!
The Eagles stole a page from the Rams pass rush when they sacked Hurts 7 times!!!

When Kelce was in his prime he looked to me like one of the most athletic tight ends in NFL history. He looks slow to me. He is no longer making the explosive plays he once did and it's clear Mahomes can no longer rely on him in 3rd down situations as he once did.

 

[sharkman]

Well Kelce's mind is wandering in many different directions these days...one day he looks like Pimp Daddy, another day like a Rock Star, another like a Wrestler and lastly like a Tight End!

Hey! but the Chiefs have Worthy, Schuster and Hopkins that are no slouches either! So there is fire power there!

The Eagles exposed the Chiefs biggest weakness all year...the offensive line! Look for the Chiefs to make changes on the offensive line during the off-season!

Gaby this more looks like Taylor taking charge. 3 questions for you:
1. Does he deserve such a kiss after a 2 catch 19 yard performance?
2. Does he get an enthusiastic blow job if KC wins the Super Bowl?
3. If KC loses SB, is it a no kiss/no BJ situation?

So, no on-field kiss. But maybe a BJ from her nappy headed date as consolation prize for the big lug?

My favorite play of the SB was 22 year old rookie Cooper DeJean, on his birthday, housing Patrick Mahaomes with this INT. What a wonderful birthday gift Mahomes gave him!!!!!! I am curious whether Philadelphia was playing zone coverage because I don't think Mahomes ever saw DeJean. It was just wonderful coverage by the Eagles on this play as the intended WR was not open and fell down:

Which was easy for the Eagles to do because their DL is loaded with beasts and monsters!!!!

Biggest topic of conversation this morning was Vic Fangio's defense didn't blitz a single time all game and was able to produce 6 sacks with a 4 man front on the DL. This is unheard of. It's spectacular. Is it the best defensive line performance in Super Bowl History?

Kelce will probably retire. Ju-Ju & DeHop will likely move on. However they’re already set at WR next season with Rashee Rice, Justin Watson, Hollywood Brown & Xavier Worthy. Noah Grey will become a star once Kelce is gone.

Eagles used a 3 man front...the 4th player the Eagles lined up on the line were in fact LBs (edge rushers...Sweat and Smith Jr).
Fangio took a page from Rams' defensive coach Shula's playbook. Because the Eagles and Hurts couldn't figure out and stop (Hurts got sacked 7 times) the constant barrage of pressure the Rams were applying with their edge rushers and inside defensive linemen! The Rams defense had 16 sacks in 2 playoff games against the Vikings and Eagles.

I think the Eagles looked at that tape and said hey we could try that too! They have the personnel to do it. It should be noted that the Rams played great in that game but did end up losing due to not stopping Barkley.

NFL teams are allowed to copy what is done against them, especially because it sometimes works when you have the personnel to implement.

Fangio's game plan, with zero blitzing due to the youth of his defense, will be praised for generations and routinely cited as a defensive coordinator master class. Painfully learned and absorbed by the KC Chiefs!

Hearing the Steelers are trying to acquire Trevor Lawrence. Not sure the new coach in Jacksonville was too happy to hear this since he really was anticipating to coach Lawrence. I think he even said that he was a big reason why he chose the Jags. Not sure what the Jags are thinking but the return should be a big one. Yes he has struggled so far this early into his career. But it ain’t easy to start your career mostly playing for a very bad team.

In other news the Bills are looking at trying to acquire WR Hollywood Brown who played in the recent Superbowl for the Chiefs. Josh Allen supposedly would really like him on his team.
