Since the Patriots and the Panthers were horrible this season, I'm concentrating all my dislike on the
Cowboys. The sooner they are beaten the better. I don't give much hope for the Steelers, but we'll see.
During the regular season the NFL network reran some of the non-network games at midnight Sunday/Monday.
Not sure if they'll do the same during the playoffs.

Yea I'll be pulling for Green Bay to upset the Cowboys. This is a major test for Coach McCarthy and Dak Prescott. Can they win a must-win game?Andree wrote: ↑January 12th, 2024, 4:36 pm Since the Patriots and the Panthers were horrible this season, I'm concentrating all my dislike on the

Cowboys have no running game and too much depends on CD Lamb. Double cover Lamb and make the others beat you. I don't think those others are up to the task!
If McCarthy and Prescott, are one-and-done, at least one of them will not be a Cowboy next season.

but it certainly tilts in their favor to some degree. If the Eagles hadn't screwed up at the end of
the season, it might be a different story. Certainly Green Bay has a chance. We'll know soon
enough.

Re: SPORTS
Considering that Prescott has had 8 seasons to prove that he can be a Super Bowl winning QB or even a Conference winning QB and has failed this challenge at every opportunity, and because whenever he's under pressure his decision-making process seems to break down, I wouldn't be surprised if Green Bay pulls off the upset this Sunday.Andree wrote: ↑January 12th, 2024, 7:59 pmAren't the Cowboys undefeated at home this season?

Sweet win for Green Bay. It was great seeing the Cowboy lose, yet again, anytime there is a must-win game.Dargo wrote: ↑January 14th, 2024, 7:02 pmHey guys!

Re: SPORTS
America's team got creamed. Not only did the Cowboys lose, they lost big, though the Green Bay
defense got a little sloppy in the fourth quarter. The only thing missing was a shot of Jerry Jones
at the end of the game having a meltdown. Maybe next year.....

Re: SPORTS
While I wasn't surprised the Cowboys melted down, I am surprised the Philly Eagles just gave up. Hurts may have been more injured than the team let on, but that doesn't explain the defense or the lack of any running game. It will be interesting to see if there is a coaching change. Eagles' ownership doesn't hold on to players or coaches that underperform.
Re: SPORTS
Point taken, but the Eagles were 1-5 their last five games of the regular season, so there has been something wrong for a long time.jamesjazzguitar wrote: ↑January 16th, 2024, 1:47 pm While I wasn't surprised the Cowboys melted down, I am surprised the Philly Eagles just gave up.

I know how much you love the guy, and the price should only be around 10K (US).

While alive Churchswill was pretty much up for sale himself. He was quite
corrupt, but it was corruption that was accepted at the time. Today it would
be a big negative.

PS: I just realized I picked all of the home team, as well as very vanilla picks, but I don't see upsets like we saw last week. That is because these teams have much better coaching staff then losers like Mike McCarthy.
