NFL Week 1: Eagles defend their SB championship

This may be an all time Peterman stat:

 

Thanks Skip

 

That Peterman still gets starts and Rodgers lasted to the 20th pick when he was drafted continues to confound me.

 

I almost feel sorry for Peterman at this point. He didn't ask to be in the middle of the world's dumbest coach/GM hijinks.

 

"Wait, you traded McCarron? It's just me and the rookie? Seriously, have you watched me play?!?"

 

The whole thing is another Goodell failure. He assumed San Diego taxpayers would approve a new stadium for the Chargers, which would allow the Raiders to move into the Rams' playpen.
If the Chargers can't sell out at StubHub, there's gonna be acres of empty seats when they move to Inglewood. And while LA has the population to support two NFL teams, it's turning into a situation like the Lakers and the Clippers. No matter how good the Chargers get (and they're a bad team now), the Rams, historically and emotionally to many, will always be the top dog.

 

That Peterman still starts and Kaepernick is still jobless continues to confound me.

Can't the Bills just sign him amd say to their fan base, "Have you seen Peterman play?

 

They are listed as sellouts now. The only problem is the visiting team is occupying over half the stadium.

I am a Rams fan, but let's be honest, today, in 2018, the Rams aren't the top dog in LA, it's the Raiders. Today, right now.

No team comes into Staples Center and the opposing fans take over the arena at a Lakers game. They do it all the time for both the Rams and Chargers. It's a problem.

Teams of visiting teams don't buy PSLs.

 

I've seen fans of the Chiefs, Packers and Steelers take over Cowboys games in the past. Some teams have national fan bases.

 

Excellent points, all. It may take a while, after a couple of decades without a team, for one of the two teams in town to get established. And there's gonna be a lot of rubber burned in the desert up and down I-15 on the weekends.

 

I am very interested to see what the crowds are like in the new stadium.

 

I just got a look at Brady's pass to Gronkowski that set up their touchdown right before the half yesterday. That was clearly incomplete. How did the replay official not even look at it?
