Ravens or Bills will represent the AFC in the Super Bowl, no one comes close to those two teams.

Lions are the clear frontrunner in the NFC, they should steam roll everyone in that conference, a Lions Eagles NFC title game would be the Spiderman meme pointing.

The NFL deserves a Bills/Lions Super Bowl. Let at least one long-suffering fan base be happy.

the Ravens secondary is horrific, so I am not sure that they'll hold up. But their offense is just so good.

Yeah the defense would give me pause with Baltimore but their offense is out of its mind, I think the Chiefs are cooked as long as Mahomes is playing like he has this year

Man I'd be so salty watching that considering my team can't get out of its own damn way :laugh: But yeah I do agree that'd be a cool Super Bowl, lol

Generally the Maras have been good owners. Obviously the current generation is not Wellington but the same ownership oversaw great teams so I can't blame this all on them.
Meddling in GM business, calling the media to tell them to stop making fun of their team, etc.

Yeah, they lost all good faith from me in this last decade since the last super bowl

I know it rarely ever happens in football but I'd seriously consider a tear down if I'm the Giants. You've jettisoned your QB and your RB and you have little in the way of established players.
You can tear it down all you want, you still have the same group of stupid assholes calling the shots up above. I wouldn't trust any one of them to look after my cats while I'm on vacation, let alone make important personnel decisions for a total rebuild.

It's my impression that John Mara became mad with power after winning two Super Bowls and became more meddlesome right after. It's similar to how Jerry Jones acted after Jimmy Johnson got him two Super Bowls. Last I checked, after that core aged out, the Cowboys have won a grand total of zero Super Bowls and haven't even made an NFC Championship since their last one. That's the trajectory we're on, except with even fewer playoff appearances.

Also, the Tisches are part owners as well. Why are they even around? Are they just there to make sure it stays in the family?

It's about the storyline. Unless it's the Lions winning the Super Bowl (or MAYBE Buffalo), I don't see any that's bigger.
Frankly, this is a big reason why I can't bother with the NFL. The rule changes, the refball, the same few teams managing to rise to the top in any given year... it's all part of the point of being massively corrupt. The turning point for me was that Super Bowl where the Rams beat the Bengals. 58 minutes of barely any penalties, and then all of a sudden they flash them so the Rams get a win.

And unlike wrestling, the actual game isn't any fun to watch! I'm no wrestling fan but I understand why people watch it.
