The NFL Thread: Old GOAT Meets New, Brady's Bucs vs Mahome's Chiefs In The Super Bowl

globe · January 12

I for one nominated Jason Garrett or Adam Gase for Eagles Head Coach.

Wellman · January 12

This HC period is weird, normally at least one team would have hired someone by now. Even the two favorites going into the off season are still not signed and one of them isn't even in the playoffs.

Darc_Requiem · January 13

I see that the Texans finally reached out to Bienemy for an interview. I wonder if he'll tell them to kick rocks. It's clear that the only reason they are doing it is to appease Watson.

@WellmanI wonder if the Pederson situation has anything to do with it. A dude like him doesn't usually hit the market. Especially so late.

Two spots occupied for the Championships. Green Bay kind of made that Ram's defense look silly. Bills did what they had to do, Tucker missing those field goals made me feel like the Ravens were going to lose then the pick 6 sealed it.

Tomorrow should be fun, will the Browns get the upset? Who'll prevail between Brees and Brady?

Personally I'm going with the Browns for the memes and I'll say the Saints get the clean sweep against the Buccaneers.

Yo on a personal level I don't like T. Hill and suspect he is abusive.

But watching him play I can't deny motherfucker can catch a ball like whoa.

Yeah I'm with you a 100% on that. He's a shitty person but a stellar player.

lol both my picks were wrong. Either way I hope Mahomes injury isn't too serious if it is then he should obviously sit out the next game. The back up didn't look too bad.

These NFC QBs are old, man.

Reiraku · January 18

Thank fuckin GOD the Saints lost. That's all I wanted from this post season.

Rogers isn't that old but yeah the AFC is run by them babies. Now that Brady went to Tampa.

@WellmanAaron Rodgers is 37 fam. That's old for an NFL player.

True but his age hits too close to home.

I'm 41 fam, who you telling. Rodgers is exactly 4 years younger than me, we are both born in December.

Lantis · January 19

The QB position seems to be a bit more forgiving age-wise.

Given how shitty Mike McCarthy did this year as Cowboys HC, I don't want to take the chance that Jason Garrett was a good coach hampered by Jerruh.

Naw, McCarthy is just trash. Green Bay literally was held together as a functional team for years by Aaron Rodgers' will alone.

I really hope Mahomes plays.

globe · January 21

Personally I think Haskins going to the Steelers is a terrible move. Not that I don't think he should get another chance, but with how that locker room is and how it's seems that Tomlin really doesn't do anything about the attitude some of the players have. I can see Haskins not giving a fuck once again.

Lol, Rivers, Saleh and Cromartie those three combined have almost enough kids to probably field a team at every position.

Brady really about to meme himself to another ring.

Wellman · Sunday at 11:48 PM

Was not expecting Brady to get these dudes to the Super Bowl. Especially after seeing how he was playing in the second half, was expecting Rogers to snatch this back.

But props to Tampa Bay.

DangerousJ · Sunday at 11:48 PM

Tampa Buccaneers going. To a Superbowl held in Tampa?

I don't even follow sports but DAMN!

Darc_Requiem · Monday at 12:00 AM

@DangerousJ

Yeah that doesn't happen. I'm waiting for the AFC game to be over to update the thread title.

globe · Monday at 03:17 AM

Chiefs vs Buccaneers

Lets see if Brady can get his hat trick of defeating Brees, Rodgers, and Mahomes.

Wellman · Monday at 04:40 PM

This next Super Bowl is literally rests solely on whether the Buccs defense can stop the Chiefs, cause while Brady is still a viable QB he got some cracks in the invincible armor especially with the late INTs he gives out.

Chadouken · Monday at 04:49 PM

Matt LaFleur walking to the post game presser like

Serpent · Monday at 06:01 PM

Game is usually close when it's Mahomes vs. Brady. Mahomes needs this badly though to have a chance at GOAT status. If Brady takes it, I don't think it's even possible to surpass him.

Mahomes needs about five more SB rings to enter that conversation.

Mahomes is 25 not 35. If Brady can survive taking two Ls to Eli and one to Foles, Mahomes would be fine even with a loss to Brady. As long as he wins multiple championships he can potentially become the GOAT.

Brady's been to 10 of the things and would have won 7 there. It would be real hard to equal that, and especially if he has the L to Brady, who will eventually retire, it's a hard sell.

MJ needed to beat Magic to be MJ. Mahomes is going to have to beat Brady to be the GOAT.

Chachi · Monday at 07:39 PM

I hope the Chiefs can find a stopgap solution with their O-line. Fisher not being there at LT means JPP and Barrett are going to feast. David and White aren't going to let Hill and Kelce run free across the middle, and the deep bombs aren't going to be there unless the Chiefs are in max protect.

Didn't Mahomes already beat Brady last season?

I mean I know it was a regular season game and people classify playoffs games differently (moreso when it's the SB), but still....

Did Brady beat Montana when I wasn't looking. Football isn't basketball. Jordan and Magic actually played each other. They shared the same court. Brady and Mahomes don't guard each other.
