NFL Week 12 -- I Wish Turkey Only Cost A Nickel

I remember that game fondly.

 

Was that the Tommy Maddox game?

 

Goddamn it, it’s the holiday season. Would you like to pour salt in that wound, too?

Butch Davis had a panic attack at halftime, which didn’t help.

 

But but but people here insist the NFL is doing GREAT! Lol

 

So does Dennis Northcutt

 

If by Tommy Maddox game, you mean the one in which the Steelers came back from 17 points down to beat the Browns in their only playoff appearance in the first 21 years after their return to the NFL, yes.

 

Do you think he wakes up some nights staring at his hands?

 

Hey, I didn't bring it up. Blame Junkie!

 

Show me a metric that says it isn’t.

 

What hands?

 

Teams will still draft an unproven guy in the first round because he's cheaper than a veteran QB. Imagine how much you would have to spend to "guarantee" a five-year deal with a proven back-up?

 

The greatest advantage in the NFL is a top QB on a rookie deal. So teams not only overdraft but they typically throw the rookie in way too soon.
