I'd say that Pats fans didn't get quite as much joy from the SB win as the Falcons did anguish, but then I remembered Saints fans, and there's where it all went.

the funny thing to me is that Reid used to be the opposite with o-linemen. Mind you, I was just a kid in the early 2000s, but I distinctly remember that his early Eagles teams used to have absolutely huge offensive linemen. Dudes like Jon Runyan, Tra Thomas, Shawn Andrews were like 330+ lbs; I mean all of them were basically houses. So it's kinda amusing he changed so drastically since.

I think it's because he fell in love pulls and getting o-linemen in the 2nd level aqap

There was a stretch there where they had something like 6 straight drives end in a touchdown and it was the longest moments of my life. It just never ended. Every loving time. Every loving time, oh god.

Then Amerson, the one person on D who made a play all game long, got a concussion. Probably bottom 4 Raiders games I've ever had to watch. Only ones worse I can think of are the jets game where mark Sanchez was just chilling in the sidelines eating a hot dog by the 3rd quarter, the tuck rule game, and the super bowl.

I actually watched his debut in person in '06 versus the Seahawks in Denver. We were sitting like 10 rows behind one of the benches near the corner of the end zone.

My three glaring memories from that game are a Cutler pick-six from inside the Broncos' 10, the end of Al Wilson's career and Brandon Marshall's catch-and-run TD.

I guess that I don't need that though
Now you're just some QB that I used to know
My fave bad Raiders game was the Steelers game where the long snapper got hurt and every punt afterward was a blooper reel candidate. One sailed over head, one was blocked, and another was so tough for the punter to get that it was a miracle it wasn't blocked and went like 12 yards.

Long snappers. You never hear about them, EVER, except when they A. have a bad game or B. get hurt.

Apparently the Packers don't have one (officially) at the moment.

This is what NFL Films used to do before they got their funding cut :(

Like they'd put up a season recap of a team that went 3-13 and make you think they were about to dominate the entire league. They did have John Facenda narrating though, which helped.

e: poo poo Facenda died in the 80's, I thought he was around a lot longer than that.

Yeah, a team could go 2-14 and they'd have a lead in that was like Building The Foundation for Victory and then have half the footage be from the two wins.

The fact that I, jackass on my couch watching draft breakdown dot com, watched two Hack games and knew he was poo poo and the Jets took him ahead of 200+ other players that got drafted, speaks volumes.
