The 2019 NFL Season thread

And that's the game

It really looked like Mahomes was going to be the one to let the pressure get to him but then it switched to Garoppolo.

Happy for Andy to finally get a Superbowl win.

Yeah it was back and forth there  ..
Really glad to see Andy Reed get his first Super Bowl win!

With 7 minutes left was not feeling good. But 10 points to this team ended up being no big deal.
Still hard for me to believe that the Chiefs have won a Super Bowl after many years of bad coaches and mediocrity.

My parents had one of those pools going where you could guess the score after each quarter by buying squares and I had the score for a short time in the first quarter.. My mom never had a winning score but my dad had it for most of the game..
We all decided to roll our winnings over to the final score and with that final KC TD my younger brother won the entire pot which totaled over $80!
Had a lot of fun playing that during the big game

And so after much uncertainty, it looks like QB1 will remain with the Panthers for the 2020 season..

I still think he's worth trading for a 1st round pick or more while he's still valuable

Buffalo Bills agree to terms with CB Josh Norman on one-year deal worth up to $8M

I tend to lean more towards the owners side of disputes in modern day sports labor disagreements, but I'm with the players who disagree with  adding a 17th regular season game and another couple of teams to the playoffs.

NFL CBA passed. Won't be this upcoming season, but 17 game season and 14 teams making playoffs should start in 2021. Still hate those changes, but at least there won't  see a strike.

The teams that get an extra home game sure will be happy, those that don't not so much.

Injuries are too high now, this will add even more, and lead to further decline in viewer numbers.

They should be focusing on what the fans have been complaining about most, horrible refs and inconsistent application of the new safety rules.

I'm worried the NFL season could be in jeopardy from this coronavirus..
They're already delaying the draft as a precaution but if things continue to get worse, who knows

[RVR II]

The playoff picture will be interesting
