NFL offseason thread

I could be wrong, but I believe every Titans game since Day One has been a sellout.*


*Of course we all know how franchise cook the turnstyle books.​

 

I've covered five regular season games there and four of them were nowhere close to being full. Obviously, still could have been technically a sellout.

Doesn't Tennessee also have no state income tax?

 

Yes

 

Nashville is awesome. If players don't want to sign with the Titans, well, that's on them.

 

Yeah, I don't see any reason why the Titans wouldn't be able to become consistently competitive, they just haven't been in about 5-6 years.

I agree about Nashville. Great city.

Think the NFL considers moving the combine? They took a pretty hard line about the Super Bowl when Arizona kicked around a similar bill.

 

They ought to.

 

Farmer suspended for four games for sending texts to the sideline last season.

Falcons lose a 2016 fifth-round pick for pumping in false crowd noise.

 

Patriots punishment - lesser or harsher than the Falcons? What say you, SJ?

 

Are they even going to be punished. The NFL has been awfully quiet. It should be harsher because the Pats were busted for cheating previously, but I'm sure the NFL will claim that was too far in the past to be relevant.

 

I tend to agree with you. I don't think they're going to do anything.

 

There's no way they would ever, ever ratify the idea the Super Bowl champ got that way by cheating. If Pete Carroll remembers Marshawn Lynch, I'd bet the hammer would be coming down hard.
