Post-Game Talk: Pats lose Super Bowl LII to Philly and Foxborough turns into a circus

[Fenway]

It would have to be a pure lotto system at that point. I mean isn't it basically that already for Super Bowls for the two teams season ticket holders?

Pretty much. The Vikings would get an extra allotment for being the host team.

First time the Pats were in the Super Bowl in 1986 they actually had a box office sale as they had tickets left over because they didn't have that many season ticket holders.

as per last thread.... John Fox gonzo in CAR, AND CHI

 

[CHRDANHUTCH]

and now the Matt Patricia Clock has begun.... Jim Caldwell gonzo in Detroit, apparently, Bob Quinn's ties to the Lions puts Patricia as the frontrunner there in Michigan...

 

[McGarnagle]

That's a lot of coaches who are gonzo

 

[CHRDANHUTCH]

That's a lot of coaches who are gonzo

we may not be finished yet...

 

[CHRDANHUTCH]

it's being reported Elway's panicking in Denver.... Vance Joseph gonzo after 1 season after Kubiak's health-related retirement

 

[CHRDANHUTCH]

no DECISION TODAY expected as to whether Marvin Lewin remains in Cincinnati----WCPO

 

[CHRDANHUTCH]

Bruce Arians tenure in the NFL apparently is finished.... expected to retire from coaching and the Arizona Cardinals

 

[TP]

I still can't believe the Bills made it in.

Saturday's the place to be. I think Kraft angles for it, honestly, because we get that slot more often than not in recent years. There's a 50% chance your opponent is coming in on a short week, then you get the extra day's rest on your conference championship opponent.

Just another thing for the Steelers to complain about

 

[CHRDANHUTCH]

Vance Joseph stays employed, remains in DEN

 

[Johnnyduke]

Not sure joseph can coach but it's on elway to find a QB

 

[McGarnagle]

Vance Joseph stays employed, remains in DEN

So he's not gonzo after all

Having the TIME OF HIS LIFE

 

[CHRDANHUTCH]

Elway Essentially owns the Broncos franchise but the rumor had been potentially out.... still waiting on Lewis/CIN

 

[smithformeragent]

I still can't believe the Bills made it in.

The field sucks

 

[CHRDANHUTCH]

Ted Thompson transitioning to new title with Packers; will not remain GM

 

[CHRDANHUTCH]

Bears looking at McD

 

[EverettMike]

Here are my opening thoughts on this weekend.

Chiefs (-8)
Rams (-6)
Bills (+8)
Panthers (+6.5)

I wouldn't bet on Buffalo or Carolina to win, but I think both of those games are close.

 

[BigBadBruins7708]

If Luck's shoulder isnt ruined, I got a bad feeling McDaniels goes to Indy. That was his big mistake in Denver was not having a QB

 

[Over the volcano]

 

[KrejciMVP]

Going with some upsets this weekend
Buffalo over Jacksonville
Tennessee over KC
Falcons over Rams
Panthers over Saints

 

[Glove Malfunction]

Pats get a night game

Looks like I'll be home from reffing just in time for the game! Plus I can sleep in on Sunday, so i won't feel guilty for staying up for the whole game.

 

[JRull86]

If you're Nick Caserio, do you leave for Houston? As much of a mess as the Giants are right now, that's still a job you take if available. But Houston? Ehhhhhh I dunno about that.

McDaniels hand-picked Orton to be his QB after trading Cutler and failing to get Cassel, so he has nobody to blame but himself there.

Going with some upsets this weekend
Buffalo over Jacksonville
Tennessee over KC
Falcons over Rams
Panthers over Saints

While I could definitely see some or even all of those happening, I'd never bet against the Saints at home in the playoffs......at least with Drew Brees at the helm.
