If you have 40 minutes to spare I highly recommend this look back at arguably the best post-season in NFL history, twenty years ago this month.

I remember our snow game where people were throwing snow when we scored and thinking how fun it was and how cool it would be to have been there.

Now I think they’re a bunch of idiots.

Aging, man. It’s wild.
Sports is a young person's passion.

I would've given anything to go to a -20 wind chill game in Foxboro when I was 16 or 17. Now I'm my 30s and early season weather is too hot, late season weather is too cold, and if the weather's perfect then the traffic is still going to suck so I'll just stay in and watch it on CBS from the comfort of my couch.

Curran is Jonathan Krafts mouthpiece, he is going to say pay no attention to that man behind the curtain.

JK is definitely involved in football ops

I’m calling it now. If Philly gets drubbed tonight, Sirianni is toast. THAT’S a team I could see Belichick coaching.

No it's not difficult, those guys are trained professionals, it was a low hit no matter what the circumstances are.

I agree with you it's low, but we're talking what, 8 inches higher and he's hitting thigh instead of knee? He turns the head and hits him with the shoulder to avoid helmet contact, as he's supposed to.

Sorry, right now that hit isn't against the rules. I don't like the hit, and think it's dirty, but with the rulebook as it is I want my DBs doing that over hitting anywhere above the hips.

I don't like the hit but with the way they penalize anything near the head, I have a hard time blaming the defense.

At full speed it's so difficult to hit not too high, but also not too low.
I hear ya but on this one I feel like the defender had plenty of time to deliver a hit to midsection instead of diving at a guy's knee.

I have one problem with the Rooney Rule. It creates bad faith, sham interviews. The Falcons have been linked to Bill and now this. So let's say Arthur Blank interviews Bienemy and Aaron Glenn. Does anyone think he's hiring either of them over Belichick?
