  1. MVP goes to the QB with the best stats who makes the playoffs. Obviously putting up 5000 yards and 40 TDs is gonna win you a lot of games, and seeding can come into play in close races (Rodgers-Brady 2021) but it's not like the AP just looks at the teams with a bye and says here's our candidates. See: Ryan Tannehill, also in 2021
  2. Not with the side panels. After they dropped those it was fine
  3. They like playing football and probably don't want to let their teammates down
  4. The NFL never had a genuinely bad uniform in its history until the early 2000s (Rams, Bills, Falcons et al.)
  5. Half a football game is zoomed-in replays and closeup shots of players standing around. The "You don't see it during the action" argument works even less than it does when people use it to defend uniform advertisements in other sports
  6. The designated rival thing is a fun thought but it always ends up with a few obvious choices then a bunch of leftovers paired together. Jets-Giants Chargers-Rams Raiders-49ers Steelers-Eagles Texans-Cowboys Broncos-Seahawks Jaguars-Panthers Ravens-Commanders/Colts Browns-Lions? Chiefs-Packers? Bears-Cardinals? Bills-Vikings (0-4 bowl) Bengals, Falcons, Titans, Saints, Patriots?????
  7. I'm not commenting on who was deserving. The Heisman has never generated less hype and interest as far back as I can remember
  8. I heard plenty about Williams, then Penix, then Nix. Daniels captaining a team that had no expectation to win their division let alone their conference surely had something to do with the lack of hype.
  9. The Heisman trophy has reached its nadir. I never heard this guy's name all season, and I watched a good amount of football
  10. This reminds me of the 2021 Super Bowl when the officials let Tee Higgins tackle the CB by the facemask before he caught a TD pass
  11. This reminds me of the 2021 divisional round when the officials blew a play dead, Burrow threw a TD after the whistle, and the refs counted it for some reason
  12. For someone who talks like an authority on football you sure don't seem to know much about its culture
  13. Poetic justice does not make another Alabama playoff run any less boring
  14. That beautiful system that put the #4 team in the natty in 2001 despite them not playing in their conference title game (which was won by the #3 team, who they lost to H2H), resulted in a split national championship in 2003, left out undefeated Auburn in 2004 despite them having a better resume than OU, left out the only undefeated FBS team in 2008, left out TCU in 2010 despite them having gone undefeated two years in a row, was even more hostile toward G5 teams, and gave us an SEC divisional rematch in the title game in 2011.
  15. The committee made it this far without screwing up the playoff selections but decided to :censored: their pants in the final 4-team year
  16. That's a big patch of California that's gonna be pissed they don't get the 49ers game
