Coincidence: All Four Teams Still Playing Had The Best Odds To Win The Superbowl Prior To The Season

Are we witnessing a passing of the guard here by the two old timers(Tom & Peyton) to the young ones? Is the media trying to pass the baton to Andrew Lucky instead of the other more talented young QBs thus the need to force feed him to the masses? Maybe Cam doesn't fit the profile to be handed the face of the NFL key to so they find the next best thing in Kaepernick. The NFL and the media should just accept Cam's talent to guide this ship. This multi-billion dollar ship.

I gotta admit. NFL officiating is approaching NBA levels of absurdity. Makes ya wonder.
Yep. I never thought that was possible. But now I see that it is. The only sport with some integrity and a good commissioner is the NHL imo. Sent from my SPH-D710 using CarolinaHuddle mobile app

Ratings are God to the NFL.  And there is also profit sharing so everybody wins!   Seattle vs SF ratings trump Seattle vs Carolina ratings.  Not to mention all the money going around in Vegas.   All it takes is a couple refs to change the game or at least give an advantage to one team or another.  Maybe it doesn't always work for the NFL but mostly it does.  They have became so rich since these "storylines" started over a decade ago.  Business is business.   In the Super Bowl last year they had an extra ref, which you would think would be one of the best rated ones right, like the others in the crew?  Nope, he was one of the worst.  Who really knows, but as a grown man, I'm starting to really rethink if I'm wasting time here.

    • Yeah and I am doubtful he can offer that consistently. I don’t have many years left at my age and in my view we have wasted two and this whole exercise with him was always a three year minimum.  I am out on that with a guy I don’t believe in, and never believed in, it has sucked. To me it is a costly detour off the right track. Years.    But I am not so rigid that I can’t see excellence. He needs to display it though, consistently before I change my outlook.  
    • No, when I said rage, I meant rage, which only applies to certain fans on this board. Your timeline of trying to assess whether he is the future or not is really tied to the discussions surrounding his second contract. If this team is going to commit to some monster contract while he has shown nothing but glimpses of brilliance would be deservedly worrisome, so the clock is genuinely ticking for him to settle into something resembling his final form. Perhaps a best case scenario is that he plays well, the team succeeds, but he does so with a more limited role that makes the rest of the league view him as a game manager, and his second contract value reflects that. Then he continues to improve and becomes a bargain comparatively while not handicapping the team around him, and we enter an era of consistent championship competitiveness that the fanbase has craved for decades and has never really experienced before. But that requires many, many things to go right and for Bryce himself to facilitate that if he ends up being the quarterback of the future.
    • Exactly. And the flame throwers as well, get location benefits from not going all out. But they have it in reserve.  Not sure how much Greg had but he was an artist.  There was a YouTube I came across last year or maybe even 2023 and I don’t how to even find now but it had two NFL QBs I want say one was Carr from the Raiders but I don’t really remember  The point of it is they stood side by side throwing identical distances to identical targets. Radar gun was used.  They threw the normal effort (not all out) and it was measured etc. Then they were asked to throw their ‘fastball’. They were missing and most often they were missing high. It demonstrated the same principle.    edit: and applying that to arm strength, give me the guy that doesn’t need max effort to have good velocity. The margins are so narrow with less velocity in tne NFL the defenders can Close on it and this is a league where they value down to the 100th of a second level. It is that tight
