NFL 2024

I knew the Philly D was tough but that was just overpowering. Those who called for a 3 peat probably missed the NFC final which was just as convincing.

I hope Philly is still standing tomorrow. It will be a wild night.

And this is why football is such anti-climactic sport at times with the kneel downs to end a game. :laugh:

Mahomes probably telling Hurtz that was a bullshit game like he did to Allen that time lol

Phillys coach’s family came over during his tv interview and his little boy says “Wow, you beat the Chiefs”-lol
The garbage time is tiresome to watch.

Kelce will have tears on his guitar tonight.

I’d just like to point out Mahomes is now 0-2 in the SB when Brady is in the building. Once as an opposing QB and once with Brady as an announcer.
Loved Brady as a player, but he is just awful as a color guy. Was hoping he'd get better as the season went on, but unfortunately that didn't happen. Be nice if he left and concentrated on the Raiders, but likely won't give up that cash cow.
 
This is the single biggest difference between the Pats and Chiefs for me. The Patriots were perennial winners, but generally speaking, they won with class. The Chiefs are substantially more entitled, played a much softer schedule, and consistently benefited from reffing that was suspect at best and outright biased at worst.

I loved the Pats run, always fun to watch greatness, but they were absolutely hated and vilified by basically anyone that wasn’t a Pats fan for being cheaters, having the league in their back pockets, etc. Time often seems to lessen how much they were despised, but it was bad. You’d have been hard pressed to have found a single opposition fan back then that would have said that the Pats won with class, pretty much the exact opposite. As for the schedule, every team is subject to the exact same formula, with division games given a higher priority. Pats had a bunch of years where the AFC east was really weak.
 
Before the game Brady had a sit down interview with Mahomes and Brady asked him for one word if he won 3 straight. He said ‘greatness’ and was real cocky about it. Haha, Philly must of saw it too cuz they put him in his place early and often.
I didn’t see any interviews from that loud mouth Kelce or his teeny bopper girlfriend after the game either.
What a sore LOSER.

I wasn't really a big believer in the Eagles because of the quality of competition they faced on the way. But at the same time the Chiefs won a lot of games they probably should've lost so this game was just their luck running out.

Either way it was a crap game.

I seem to remember New England getting gifted a Super Bowl appearance after a Chiefs player on the far side of the field was found to have a fingernail offside on the last play of the game, or thereabouts. NFL officiating influencing outcomes is not a new phenomenon.

I think the Pats getting busted cheating by filming the other team’s walk-throughs and of course deflate gate, that made them the super villains. They were hated before because there was a good chance it was probably going to be Brady in the conference championship at minimum, but once they got caught, their credibility took a major blow.

I didn't say it was luck, you can only face the teams that are in front of you. Just wasn't sold on the strength of the NFC since the Packers, Rams, and Commanders weren't exactly huge threats. Especially compared to the likes of the Bills.
Packers were fantastic but played in a ridiculous division. The rams I somewhat agree but funny enough they were the closest game. The Commanders knocked out arguably the best team in the league and the Eagles absolutely pumped them.

I’ll agree the eagles got somewhat fortunate that the lions / Vikings got eliminated but the conference final should have erased any doubts that the Eagles were going to be KCs toughest test yet.

The luck comment was directed at you saying “KCs luck just ran out”. No luck involved there. One team executed and one didn’t.
 
I don't like either team much, but preferred the Eagles. Love Andy Reid but he rarely gets hammered like that. Glad Barkley won a ring.

It was an ugly game but also beautiful!!

Eagles may have been a bit fortunate with their opponents (No Det/Minny), but that’s not their fault, can’t hold that against them. They proved they were more than worthy champs yesterday by absolutely dismantling a pretty good football team. As good a dline as there is in football, and an excellent D in general, too bad a group of players couldn’t have won the MVP, cause the D won them the game.

Agreed. That D line was something else. No blitz but all over Mahomes.

I think your memory may be fading and failing you. I remember clearly the Pats being hated and the more they won, the more they were hated. Especially Brady and Belicek. Deflatgate and the alleged filming of other teams practice were a couple things that piled on.

Congrats to the Eagles and their fans - a great year and a great finish. Being a Cowboys fan and in their division, I hope they f***ing crash and burn next year.;):D
 
Again, no skin the SB game, but KC is getting trashed pretty badly right now and lots of people are saying they're done. I would refer back 3 years ago when Brady and Tampa clobbered them 31-9 in the big game, and a poster on here (who admitted he didn't follow NFL) was going on about how Mahomes was a fraud, having only won one "fluke" SB. And then they went on to win 2 more and make it back once again this year . An incredibly difficult feat to do in the day of the cap and movement of players. Not saying they will rise up from the dead again, but Mahomes is still in his prime, and as long as Andy Reid and Steve Spagnola are around, they will make sure they keep re-tooling. Brady didn't win every year in his illustrious career.

Chiefs ain’t done. No way. Mahomes is too good.

I do wonder if Mahomes can keep up with Brady past 30 considering his play style though. Not saying he’s not phenomenal at everything else but he does rely on his athleticism more than Brady did.

It’s more that people are hoping that they are done. 3/4 of fans cheer for a team with no real hope, so the only way to cope is to convince yourself that the teams that are better than you are done. And then reality kicks in again next year that their team is still shitty, and the misplaced anger game continues.
