2022 NFL regular season through Super Bowl LVII


Recommended Posts

Very happy the Eagles made the Super Bowl. I don't know what it is about the 49ers but I found that whole team completely boring, almost forever. Anytime they've ben in the Super Bowl I wish someone else was there instead. I only rooted for a small number of teams harder than I did for that Eagles team with TO & McNabb to win the Super Bowl.

 

I also often forget that the Eagles won the Super Bowl a few years ago because 1: I feel asleep in the third quarter and 2: I don't think there's another city other than Philadelphia where I routinely the forget about their teams existence (the Phillies) or their teams' success (the Phillies & Eagles). Even though I just said I wanted that mid 2000s Eagles team to win, I sometimes think my mind's playing tricks on me that they were actually in the Super Bowl. If you asked me every day of the week when the last time a Philadelphia team was in the championship game in any major sports, four of those days I'd probably say the 2000-01 Sixers.

 

Side note: as someone who loves the Teal Eagles and their current number font (I'm not from Philly nor do I care about the team so my opinion doesn't matter) I keep getting hung up on how much their new wordmark matches nothing else about their brand. I'm just waiting for new uniforms for them with big chunky Chargers-style numbers (but less curvy).

Would be a lot happier if the Eagles already hadn't won a Super Bowl. I really want to see a super bowl matchup between 2 team trying to win their 1st, or at least their 1st in a few decades. 

 

Also sucks the Purdy got hurt, game I think it would have been a bit closer if he didn't. 

Defense ended up being a double edged sword for the 49ers. They played well & got some good stops early on, but the penalties they committed really took all that away. Not that the Eagles didn't get away with a few.

Yes I’m absolutely serious. Why do you even have a guy like Josh Johnson on your roster in the first place? Remember now, he was my favorite team’s backup for several seasons. 

It's not like they could dunk Joe Montana into a fountain of youth, to be fair.

A strong mind gets high off success, a weak mind gets high off bull🤬

I still miss these. At least they had character.

I want the Bengals to win so bad today, but the alternative would be just fine. Eagles Chiefs Super Bowl would be pretty meh, but I really don’t hate either of those teams. Go KC in that case, guess? It would mostly feel like that Broncos Panthers Super Bowl. Neither is going to upset me, but neither would really move the needle for me, either.

Did they just mention that Nick Sirianni was playing Rocky to the team to give the team that "underdog" mentality? 

🤣Their team is the exact opposite of an underdog. They'll probably be the favorites in the Super Bowl. 

NO ONE BELIEVED IN US!

Noners are a bunch of classless losers. Good riddance to their season. 


That’s the one good thing that came from this game. As much as I hate Philly (their my most hated team of any sport), I almost wanted them to win today because of how awfully arrogant, classless and toxic the Niners players/fans are.
 

At least with the Eagles they have players I actually like (I really like Jalen, Kelce and Slay; wish they weren’t Eagles so I could openly root for them) and I know what to expect with their fans after dealing with them for decades now. There’s a begrudging respect there that I just do not have for San Francisco. It seems as if 49ers fans forget they have a championship drought even longer than the Cowboys do with the amount of classless trash they talk. 
 

(Have to add that as a Cowboys fan I also dislike most Cowboys fans I meet. They’re every bit as arrogant, classless and just plain stupid as any other big fan base.)

Cowboys - Lakers - LAFC - USMNT - LA Rams - LA Kings - NUFC

Sigh. Yeah, the Chiefs just look like a superior team to the Bengals. Gonna take some work for Cincy to pull this out, but they did it last year so 🤷‍♂️

 

Edit: and Burrow gets picked. Yeah this one looks about as good as the morning game. Chiefs-Eagles sounds like such a boring ass Super Bowl.

Considering how many teams he's played for, I'm guessing it's a rule.  Each season, the all teams that qualify must enter a lottery to reserve a roster spot for Josh Johnson.* The rules and criteria are secret and probably more complicated than playoff tiebreakers. 

 

*It used to be Josh McCown. When he retired, Josh Johnson was next in the line of succession.
