Pretty accurate but only going back like 30 years. 

Ya, the cowboys have won a Super Bowl much more recently than the Leafs have won the cup. 
 

But being the NFL’s & broadcasters darling team while choking every time you make it to the first round of the playoffs is on point with the leafs.

It wasn't an accident that I compared us to that 1999-2017 Browns era. Tons of similarities.

TBH, I forsee about the same thing happening. Around 20ish years of being the butt of a lot of league jokes.

Oh yeah, it’s going to get a lot worse. 

 

If I were making a prediction, I'd probably say the same thing.

Since I'm a fan of course, I'm hoping for a different outcome.

You wear glasses?

Are you on heavy medication?

Do you do drugs?

 

I need answers!

Yes. Perhaps. Nope.

Your offered opinion earlier shows you really do need some answers.

So here they are, pertaining to this.

One guy made it to the playoffs, where the Dolphins died in the cold.

The other guy got to watch the game from home and has been left wondering if his team will draft his replacement this coming season.

How do they not have like heating band or something around the back of the seats so they can melt it off instead of asking a bunch of fans to shovel it. Like not even that major or expensive just something that puts off enough heat over the course of time that the snow can’t accumulate like that.

I'd imagine a lot of the concrete flatwork there has snowmelt but install on vertical surfaces and plastic seats is not something worth having with how shoddy that would be and no real proven products for that application, at that scale.

I wondered why they didn't have it running through the concrete around the place but I guess they can just give a couple of tickets to guys willing to do it as a fan is my guess.

Ya I meant on the concrete behind the seat not on the back of the seats themselves. But then I guess you gotta worry about it icing if the radiant heat isn’t hot enough. Which would also be a big lawsuit issue.

      Trevin Wallace - PFF Breakout Nominee

      You're not understanding what I'm saying. I'm saying that truly elite players will always have a market because they're elite difference makers and that at the "devalued positions" the NFL has discovered that those are spots where unless you have an elite talent there you have an opportunity to get similar results out of run of the mill talent for run of the mill money compared to good talent for good money. The drop off in overall unit performance isn't dramatic dropping down from "good" to "JAG" and it saves money to invest in the premium positions. It's about skill sets and what is hardest to find, simple supply and demand. There's just more serviceable LBs and RBs and safeties out there than their are CBs and pass rushers and QBs. And honestly, a big part of our historic lack of consistent success has been investing too many premium draft and cap resources into those devalued positions. Yeah, we've had a lot of great off the ball LBs and RBs on our way to be a franchise with an overall losing record. Pointing to our success at those positions is proving my point because I just point to our W-L record and overall lack of historical quality at premium positions like QB, WR, CB, etc. We've sucked in large part because we've valued the wrong position groups. In a vacuum it doesn't matter. But in actuality every high pick or big chunk of cap you spend on an off the ball LB or RB or IOL is a high pick or big chunk of cap you couldn't spend on a QB or CB or WR or OT.

      Right before Kuechly retired, we had some of the worst D line play that year.  We were ranked 29th against the run in 2019.   I remember even Kuechly struggled to get off the blocks at times because the linemen were on second level so quickly due to our porous line made up of Kyle Love, Vernon Butler and a washed up Gerald McCoy.
