here is how the schedule works so u know. play 1 division in the nfc and 1 in the afc that rotates every year. we play our division. then we play the same teams in our conference that finished in the same rankings as we did in our division. giants 3rd in nfce. panthers 3rd in nfcs. then we play bears 3rd in nfc north and we play the nfc west this year. GOTS IT?

I did not know that's how it worked. I knew the rotated divisions but didn't know the other part. Can't believe I've never heard that before. Thanks.

I think a new rotation started in 2010 (so that East Coast teams didn't have road trips to both SD/OAK or SEA/SF in the same year.) That played into it cause that shouldn't happen. In a 3 year rotation, if you face the same team, you should at least play one of them at home.

it's been said quite a bit around here but keeps falling on deaf ears.
they started that a couple years back so all teams played each other. not sure when tho
started in 2002 and was an 8 year rotation providing each team with a chance to play every other team in the league at least twice, one home and one away. came with the realignment of the divisions in 2002.

as to how they decide who gets home field advantage in any given year, i saw it somewhere but i can't remember. i do know that it has been determined for a pretty good while.

good thing is that we get to face chicago here. i don't know if that's any better but if they get that offense straightened out i know i'd rather be playing the bears at home than the giants. you give cutler a better oline and a better receiver and that offense is going to be really good. he'll still be a punk who can be picked apart but i trust that happening here more than there.

giants...meh. not worried about that. they do have one RB that is going o be a concern, though...gartrell johnson. that kid is going to be fierce in the near future. we usually do a pretty decent job against the best RBs in the league, though.

      2027: Sharing my thoughts on the cap without a lotta research

      By cranky · Posted

      I can't help but think that you are equating physical attributes alone with wins. I don't subscribe to that thought. No one will argue that Young has a strong arm, but he makes up for it in other ways. The real limitation for him is he needs good route runners with great hands. That's why Young was so good at the end of the 24 season. Thielen and Coker were perfect receivers for him and he had his best games with them. Not having them to start the 25 season hurt. Look at the first 10 games in 25 with a rookie receiver and no Coker and then look at the final 7 games with a more experienced rookie and Coker back and there is a telling difference in Young's performance. Prior to week 10, Young had 1 game with a QB rating above 100, 2 games with a rating above 90 and 6 games with a rating below 90. In the last 7 games with Coker back, Young had 3 games with a QB rating above 100, 2 games with a rating above 90 and only 2 games with a rating below 90. The tools a QB has to work with matter more than their arm strength.  To go back to Darnold and Stafford, yes they both have great arm strength but neither had much success with that alone. As I already pointed out, Stafford, even with a canon for an arm, only had 4 winning seasons in his first 12 years. It was only when he went to the right environment that he had true success.

      Report: Panthers great Luke Kuechly being eyed for big TV job

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      I don't love this role for him if I'm being totally honest The pregame show is much more flash than substance and doesn't seem like the right fit for what Luke would bring to the table, and that's his vision of the game. I'd like to see him do something where it more involves him breaking down film and explaining what he's seeing out there, as he sees the game in a way very few ever have.
