I don't know where my parents went wrong with my brother, but he's an Eagles fan and he was chirping me after the 1st, I told him...never say never with the Saints man, just watch.
I'm now $1,500 richer.
I mean to be fair, their coach and most of their players seem likeable. But their fans literally have not shut up since that super bowl, going hard after fans of franchises that are way more successful than theirs. The videos of them throwing **** at Vikings fans last year and just being obnoxious were celebrated, like WOW COOL!
Well, if you want to live in the present, they’re now at home eliminated just like all but 4 other teams.
@2wayPlay I would’ve much preferred the Steelers make the playoffs to get more interest these past 2 weekends obviously, but if they would’ve lost the way the Chargers did to New England - what good would have making the playoffs done? Just extended the inevitable frustration.
New England with YET ANOTHER FREE PASS TO THE AFCCG... needed to not get a first round bye and basically second round bye too with a home game against a franchise whose heads they are in bigger than the Steelers. Thankfully, they have to go on the road where they haven’t been nearly as good this year.
What’s amazing to me beyond the fact they shredded a seemingly good defense is the fact that their own defense played lights out. The threat of them winning again stays alive... the dynasty literally will not die until Brady or Belichick leaves it seems.
