Living in Philadelphia for nearly a decade now. Eagles fans are insufferable and I will be more than happy if the Chiefs win. 
 

Unfortunately I do believe the Eagles have the better all around team and Saquon is the true X factor, can never ever count out Patrick Mahomes though.

Gotta go with the eagles. edit: gotta go against the chiefs

Between the feeling that I think the chiefs got game changing calls in games that put them there and the total saturation level of ads and media featuring Kelse, Mahomes, and Reid, Im ready for the chiefs to go away

I hope Super Bowl ratings are down for the first time ever (even though if they were they’d lie and say they were the biggest viewership ever) so the NFL can stop fixing games. Who gives a F about the chiefs anymore? Stop rigging their games. Mahomes would be a B list QB back when you could hit their asses.

Iggles fans don't need another title to be even more insufferable 

Let the Chiefs Dynasty reign untill we get back in contention 

I'm all in on the Chiefs and have been for a few years now.  Mahomes is the best player in NFL history, period, and I feel privileged to be alive to witness his assault on the record books.

Star players always get preferential treatment. It's not nearly as bad in the NFL as say, the NBA, but it literally does happen in all major professional sports. In college the preferential fugery is absolutely off scale. It's been that way for decades.

It makes financial sense. Your stars players and teams drive fan interest and revenue. They care less about hardcore fans because they know very few of them are gonna go anywhere. Hence the pining after extremely casual followers(not even fans) with the Taylor Swift horseshit. It's a way to increase interest and revenue, although it will be predictably very temporary.

For all our bitching and complaining about the dumb European games, that has actually worked to create some lasting interest in Europe. And that is a project going back to the late 80's with the early iterations of NFL Europe. 

Same with the rule changes to foster more offensive play. Does the league really want Ricky Manning Jr. shutting down a star player because he can hang all over them? Do they want Peyton Manning getting knocked out by a rotational DL that dove at his knees?

These are all efforts to expand the fanbase, increase the value of the NFL and member franchises(like the initiatives to include the ultra wealthy only as owners) that ultimately are designed for maximum profitability and longevity.

It sucks for the fans but all of it makes logical sense and it isn't really some grand conspiracy.

    • Biiiiiig eyeroll on this.  First, Look at historical stats of the most recent historical great DBs.  I plucked 3, Revis, Sherman, and Norman (cuzz he was our guy).  Combined post age 30, there are TWO pro bowls between those 3 and wanna get this...ZERO seasons with 16 games started.  ALL missed time.  It is RARE that Corners survive that long in the NFL and its about time we started recognizing this fact.  Jaycee is a good bet because it hasnt been anything seriously devastating injury wise, and with his sample size he could and should be an incredible piece for the panthers through age 30. Jaire kinda flops on the other side, hes 28...so hes under 30, but he wants his payday before it comes up, hes also been injury prone lately.  Bulk of the contract will be on opposite side of 30.  Will both of these guys help us be better in 2026?  SURE!  No doubt, but the question is, will these guys help us past 2026...not sure. The investment isnt worth the risk, nor would the ROI be anywhere close to worth it.  Neither guy is moving us from a 6-8 win team to a 8-10 team, period. My point is we're in this state a 6-8 win team IMO and he projects us as  a 4-6 win team.  EVEN if we think Jaire or Ramsey will make us a 6-8 win team, it in NO WAY is worth the money or capital to move that much just to suck kinda less.  
    • I assumed he was retiring but apparently he plans on playing multiple more seasons.  Florida is gonna have trouble holding onto everyone.  Happens to all teams that have that much success.
    • I hate Marchand, but if he became a free agent.....
