Raiders should be "Tuck rule"

Packers should be simply "Brandon Bostick"

Cowboys should be "Dez didn't catch it"

Chiefs should be "Brodie Croyle"

Still the dumbest name & uniforms.

I still think that the Immaculate Concept hurts more for Raiders fans. It's universally acclaimed as one of the best plays in NFL history, while the Tuck Rule was just bad luck.

The Tuck Rule may have derailed a potential dynasty, by the constant replays of the Immaculate Reception is worse.

why does he rarely ever get any nods as the GOAT?

I mean obviously the era was considerably different but I cant think of a player who was more dominant for his time than Hutson

>5 triple crowns
>led league in receptions 8 times
>7 times in yards
>9 times in TD receptions
>one of the biggest transformative forces to play the game

At least wait till the end of the coming season to trash the Panthers on the collapse, the team is a yo-yo and always goes shit for a year after a good season.

If they do good, Vinateri's kick will always trigger the cardiac cats.

giants taking the owl this year, cap it

Whenever I see a list of the top ten receivers of all time he's always on it. I think he gets the amount of respect that he deserves. He just played a long time ago. Older players aren't remembered as much.

>Today, we are excited to tell you about another change that comes after conversations with more than 80 current and former players: we are relaxing our rules on celebrations to allow players more room to have fun after they make big plays.

he deserves more

he only averaged 1 fewer yards/game and 0.3 fewer receptions/game than Moss while playing in an era that passed like half as often and didn't really have anything like modern receivers until him

Events actually changed up his throwing motion quite a bit

Less Teboq tier in dropping the ball so fucking low to the side and much more vertical, sort of like old Brady before he changed it around 2012

correct

my grandfather talks about the immaculate reception way more when playing against the steelers than the tuck rule against the pats

tuck rule isn't about the patriots neither I don't know why people still think that

I'm not a fan of the uniforms, I give you that. The orange helmet can be changed. I would actually like if they went back to a variation of the all white helmets like they wore back in the late 40's, early 50's.

The name though, as bad as the team has been over the past few decades, is a monument to the team's heritage, when the NFL was being founded.

Joke all you want to about how bad the Browns have been as of late, nothing can change the impact the team has had on the foundation of the NFL and how dominant they were during its inception.

I live to see the day when the Browns reign supreme once more.

Wentz* Jesus fuck

I like the all-black Browns unis.

...

embrace the suck

>the city of the queer england gaytriots

eagles fans dont give a shit about us booing santa claus. wouldve expected either 0 owl wins or the fact that the cowboys have rings out their ass

Chiefs should be 45-44

Yeah but consider his competition. He was probably facing white corner backs. I'm not saying he wouldn't be a great receiver today but I don't think he deserves top 5 of all time.

Jags should be
>1999 Titans

>time to hit the showers user!
what do?

I think it has more of how he helped advance the position. He ran a lot of routes that most of the NFL wasn't using at the time. I think he played some defense too.

They can't even take a normal fucking team photo without being complete fags? Geez Louise.

the age old question when comparing any players from different eras

one could argue that prime Montana might not even be top 5 in todays league now that most teams run a variation of the west coast offense that made him so dangerous

>33 career interceptions
wow. I knew he moonlighted as a defensive back but that's way better than I expected.
he was also a solid kicker

Patriots fans don't care about 18-1 anymore, bro.

>t. Norwegian bangwagoner

Patsniggers haven't gotten over it

>The Tuck Rule may have derailed a potential dynasty,


*cough* 1976 playoffs *cough*

right, and falcon fans don't care about 28-3 anymore

Titans will win the division. They have a QB.

18-1 happened a decade ago. Shame the perfect season never happened and a lot of once in a lifetime players didn't get a ring. But since then, the team has won two more Super Bowls. Team didn't implode into mediocrity like certain others.

28-3 happened three months ago.

the karmic circle

18-1 stained Brady's legacy beyond repair. he'll never be goat now. Pat fans i know irl are still ass mad about it

Lol

a bit off note
the 11-5 patriots narrowly missing the playoffs in 2008 might have been one of the luckiest things to ever happen for Brady's legacy.
if they got the 6th seed over Baltimore they would have played a Miami team they emasculated 48-28 @Miami in week 12.

But they lost to Eli. That's forever shameful

What do you expect from the 10 minute overtime?

OTHER THREAD BTFO

>Kaep to Seahawks
>solid backup if Russ goes down

Pete wasn't kidding when he said he was assembling a unit of the best back-ups in the league.

Eagles

Out of the 2003 draft class, which featured Carson Palmer and Tony Romo (Undrafted), only Saxy Raxy made it to the SB.

really makes you think

>Kap
>solid

Shut up nigger

Who would be a better back-up for the Seahawks? He's mobile, has won some play-off games. Didn't have a terrible year last year. He does well with good coaching.

Jay Cutler on the bench with an injured finger is more reliable than Kaep.

>tards go from superbowl window to rebuilding phase in one season

thats what you get when you let a bunch of grandpas lead your offense I guess

Do you think NFL ratings will continue to fall this year?

they just need to fix the commercial layout and even cut it down if thats possible. It really put it in perspective for me when I was watching the NBA playoffs and its like 2 hours of mostly game time compared to an NFL game which is a 3-3.5 hour commitment full of product shilling and players sitting around

yes but it's not a huge deal

sports are as popular as ever, which is why these franchises keep appreciating enormously, it's just being consumed in more ways than it used to.

I like fat ass as much as the next guy and I slap ass in private all night, but why does everything have to be so public nowadays? Like everyone aspires to be porn stars instead of dignified patricians. It's not cute. It's not funny.
