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.

      PFF raves about our draft. The best class in the whole draft?

      By Panthers Rhule · Posted

      I still think it's too soon to say last year's draft was bad. I think those who do are the eternal pessimists. We had 4 players who contributed last season. Two were starters. It's possible all 4 are starters this season. How is that a bad draft? I know it's because our roster was so bad but still, they are on this roster so it's the only one that counts.  Before I say it's a bad draft I prefer to wait and see how they play this season. It's possible we may have FIVE starters from that draft playing the season. Anyone who thinks drafting 5 starters by season two is a bad draft should visit a psychiatrist where they can get a prescription to help them live happier lives.    I'm not saying it was a success yet but I damn sure ain't calling it a failure yet. Most players don't make it. Most of those who do need a little time. One season isn't enough time which is why they are still on the team Leggete, Coker (UDFA but still we got him), Sanders, Smith-Wade and Wallace all showed promise last season. If they all take a step forward then it was a great draft. If only 1 does than it was an average draft. If they regress then and only then will I say it was a bad draft.  Fans often have unreasonable expectations compared to the reality of draft results. I believe this draft will shine as I think it's going to better due to the depth of the class but I also believe we will look back at 2024 and say that was a good class too. I think we have 5 players from that class who will be starters or rotational pieces for the next couple of years at least. That's a win.

      D. Morgan on T-Mac: “I made the decision pretty early [January]

      Playing devils adovcate here, but if you truly wanted to trade down then it made no sense to be a smoke screen for Walker only.  Especially since Tmac is not a generational type player.  Make it known that he is in play and see if the cowboys or whoever really like him as rumored.

      I mean everybody was, there is a difference between wanting them to draft the guy you like and accepting them drafting someone else based off all the intel and rumors. Up until draft night everybody was convinced it was gonna be walker or maybe another defensive player. If you didn't you was just crossing your fingers.
