RE: NFL 2017 - Duchess - 01-14-2018
So...weeks ago I was told our only real competition are the Vikings, I think I posted about it at the time and just last week I saw it said that we should hope to be playing the Saints. Guess who plays today?
RE: NFL 2017 - Midwest Spy - 01-14-2018
Watching Jax take a quick 14-0 lead.
Cannot let visiting team come out and gain confidence like that.
Wow! Steelers stuffed on 4th and inches with a terrible play call.
RE: NFL 2017 - Duchess - 01-14-2018
Jags win. Woooo.
RE: NFL 2017 - Duchess - 01-14-2018
It looks like a packed house, MS. How are you feeling? Feelin' like a winner?
Drew turns 39 tomorrow.
Gorgeous stadium, BTW.

Thanks!
The stadium is unbelievable. Was there in November for High School football championship game.
I’ve got a nervous feeling in my gut, but getting that first 3 and out against Brees made me feel a little better.

Breathe, MS, breathe!

56 years of every break going against us....

Been there! Many times.
RE: NFL 2017 - SIXFOOTERsez - 01-14-2018
Apparently there was a football game today
RE: NFL 2017 - Midwest Spy - 01-14-2018
Delirium here.
This kind of good fortune is normally reserved for other franchises.
RE: NFL 2017 - Midwest Spy - 01-14-2018
Now that I’ve had a moment to collect myself (and get the driveway shoveled and jidsnto bed) I’ve got these comments:
1. That was a typical Viking playoff effort for 59 minutes and 50 seconds. This was the same script (more or less) that I’ve watched since I was 6 years old. Sure, we’ve won some playoff games, but in the end, this franchise is known more for stealing defeat from the jaws of victory than anything else.
2. Great clock management by Mike Zimmer. After Drew Brees converted 4th and 10 to set up NO for what appeared to be the GW FG, I started yelling at the tv for Zim to use his timeouts. When Sean Payton predictably ran on 3rd and 1 with 31 seconds left, I knew we’d have a remote shot.
Brilliant on his part.
3. Case Keenum
Can I say it again?
Case Keenum.
In high school, he wore purple and gold.
Before he arrived at his high schoo, his team had never won a state championship.
Guess what?
He won a state championship!
He’s got guts and smarts.
4. Drew Brees was everything advertised. He’s the consummate pro and put his team in position to steal a victory.
5. Stefon Diggs.
I love that kid!
RE: NFL 2017 - Duchess - 01-15-2018
That was some finish, MS. To snatch victory from the brink of defeat is an amazing feeling.
I'll welcome you to Lincoln Financial Field, our beautiful "green" stadium, we have over 11,000 solar panels and generate our own power.
That's ^^^^^^ all I could think of to say. I wanted to acknowledge your hard fought win. It's not easy to win in the NFL. I have no smack talk, mostly because I worry about karma and the ha ha fuck you factor.
Go Eagles!
RE: NFL 2017 - Duchess - 01-15-2018
BOOM! There it is -
The Philadelphia Eagles will be underdogs again next week. Minnesota currently a 3.5-point favorite for the NFC Championship Game at Westgate.
RE: NFL 2017 - Blindgreed1 - 01-15-2018
Interesting to note that regardless of the outcome next week, a backup QB will be taking his team to the SB to represent the NFC.
RE: NFL 2017 - Maggot - 01-15-2018
I'm just glad Pittsburgh went home.
RE: NFL 2017 - Midwest Spy - 01-15-2018
I’m not a smack talker whatsoever.
When you’ve never won anything, it’s really hard to do, that whole Karma thing that D mentioned.
So, I’ll only say that I feel like maybe there’s a little destiny working in our favor after yesterday.
Good luck to the Eagles, and honestly, I couldn’t be happier for you guys if you get to the Bowl.
Somebody HAS to take down the Pats.
RE: NFL 2017 - Maggot - 01-15-2018
Yes, I agree all teams should strive to snatch the golden ring.

That's so gracious of you, MS. I know that you want to win as badly as I do.
