Looked like the ball was fumbled out of the end zone to me.Ref signaled safety which would affect bets. Looks like leaving it 9-6
That is hysterical.Houston just staged an amazing comeback to…deprive themselves of the #1 pick.
they have now changed this to 11-6Ref signaled safety which would affect bets. Looks like leaving it 9-6
Dumbest franchise ever. Unreal.Wth we’re the Texans doing?
Bears pick #1 so Texans will still probably have the top QB on the boardHouston just staged an amazing comeback to…deprive themselves of the #1 pick.
True.Bears pick #1 so Texans will still probably have the top QB on the board
If they want to trade up for it.Bears pick #1 so Texans will still probably have the top QB on the board
Likely. And watching those highlights is a hazard to one’s mental health if you value modern offensive play.Huh this site says otherwise.

That 2000 game was in the playoffs. Wonder if that's the difference.
Looks like it happened as recently as 2019. I didn’t recall it either, but the league’s habit of pushing division matchups in the last week make it more likely in recent years.I doubt (or don't easily recall ) if the 4 NFC East teams ever played simultaneously in the 2 late games.
The old network conference alliances of AFC on CBS and the NFC on Fox until recently made it all but impossible. But the resurgence of the conference and big markets seems to have made it inevitable.Looks like it happened in 2019.

to be fair, it's the most soul-sucking venue in the NFL by some distance.I don’t think anyone wants to win in Landover.
Unless Seattle loses.A Washington win moves the Pats from 15 to 14 in the draft.
That would be absolutely hysterical.Brady is going to absolutely kill this fraud Cowboys team next Monday
Brandi, Tiffany or Brianna.That Girlfriend in the nyg - phl game sitting a large seat away from the parents of the player is hilarious to me. Watching on tv2 mute so missed the name.
What drives the bus for football is gambling, whether that be weekly pools, individual games, or the favorite of most, fantasy football.It's by far the most popular TV show in America and nothing is even in the same stratosphere. Not just the other sports, everything. I think the NFL has like 84 of the top 100 TV shows of 2022.
Terrible products are definitely the things that usually get the most buyers and the most fans. So you make a pretty good point.
Car crashes aren't a product.What drives the bus for football is gambling, whether that be weekly pools, individual games, or the favorite of most, fantasy football.
I wonder how popular of a TV show it would be if gambling was not in play; gee, that Dolphins/Jets game today was must watch TV, a sure cure for insomnia.
Car crashes on the highway get shit tons of views too.
The result of them adding a 17th game is one less preseason game to get your house in order and a shortened training camp, the Patriots installed a completely new offense this year and had a new OC; did they look like a polished product to you offensively at any point this year?Car crashes aren't a product.
You said the NFL is a terrible product because the season is 17 games. I don't see that being true. Would it really be different if it was 16 games? You just said it like it was a fact and left it at that.
Then you moved the goalposts and turned this into a conversation about gambling. And you can gamble on baseball and NBA and NHL and they don't have even a sliver of the popularity the NFL does. So I don't believe that is a compelling argument. Other sports leagues are perfect comps if you want to claim it's all gambling and the NFL destroys all of them.
The NFL is literally the opposite of a terrible product. It's intense, dramatic, gripping, and engrossing. It's popularity is unassailable. If it was terrible, it wouldn't be popular.

It's also the result of what you saw today; a number of teams using not a back up QB, but a third string tomato can of a QB, those were some shit games today.
Virtually no starters play in preseason games for any meaningful amount of time and that's reflective in the product you see on the field.
How's that for my reasons why it's a terrible product, is that specific enough for you?
And you're shitting me comparing NFL gambling to other sports; the popularity of NFL gambling is higher than all other major sports combined.
I'm sure my cousin the bookie took a shit ton of action on that Marlins/Cubs game in July vs any NFL game played in any week.
Gambling drives the NFL bus; you don't see it that way, ok then.
But, you're right; that Jets/Dolphins game today was intense, dramatic, gripping and engrossing.
