Nick Foles has had the weirdest career.

So what's the deal with Foles? Just can't escape pressure and has a tendency to send the ball sailing?

Since 1970, 3 men have thrown for 7 touchdowns in one game. They are first ballot hall of famer Drew Brees, first ballot hall of famer Peyton Manning....And Nick Foles.

My friend lived in some ridiculously overpriced apartment complex in Philly that had a movie room/theater hooked up with cable. For that game we reserved it, got super drunk, fried up wings, and watched history happen. One of my favorite Philadelphia memories.

Out of curiosity, I looked at CJ2K's career stats just to see how he compares to RBs that are potential HoFers. After looking at several players, and this is definitely some of the homer in me, but I can't get over just how incredible of a career Frank Gore has had in the NFL. He has 9 seasons of over 1k rushing yards, and his lowest yardage total was his Rookie year with 608 yards. His latest 1k+ season came last year, his 12TH SEASON in the league. Excluding his rookie year, he has had at least 200 rushing attempts in every year of his career which is a testament to his durability at a brutal position, while maintaining a career YPC of 4.4 over the span of nearly 3000 rushing attempts. Are there any other examples of a running back playing at this high of a level for over a decade?

I only saw the later years of Frank Gore (and also when he joined the Eagles on his way to their Ring of Honor) but it always looked like he wasn't the most physically talented back in the league and just somehow caused running lanes to open with his mind.

I just think it's dumb that the Broncos think that they're the first to think of or call their secondary the no fly zone. It's just such an obvious thing. It makes more sense for NY because no fly zones are partially enforced by military jets

Stereotypes are fun!

Happiness is all about not constantly moving your goalposts and setting your desire constantly outside your reach.

Also, researchers have found that the largest concrete correlations of happiness for people are making over roughly $70k a year and having a commute under 40 minutes. It was funny because commuting was described as having a new, slightly different hell each morning by the researcher.

"I'm glad the Bengals lost.


I'm glad because I'm not sure I would be able to hold myself to this decision if they had won.


I had an amazing seat for the game, and was perfectly placed to see the hit made on Giovanni Bernard. This is a kid who has been every bit the upstanding citizen, and builds schools in Haiti with his wealth. What I realized when I was asked to watch a player lower his eyes to the grass and drive the crown of his helmet through Gio's head over and over is that the NFL doesn't care at all about these people. I guess I always knew that but it really drove the point home.

The NFL reviewed the play to see whether their idiotic notion of what is and isn't a catch was held to. They reviewed the play to see whether Gio's wrist touched the ground. They reviewed the play to see if he was able to hold on to a bit of leather as he lost consciousness. They forced us to watch Ryan Shazier do exactly what they claim to be trying to prevent over twenty times. I finally came to terms with the fact that the reason the NFL doesn't make a more serious effort to enforce these penalties is because they don't give a drat about Giovanni Bernard. As I watched fans throw cans and bottles at the officials I realized that had more to do with the colors on the uniforms than the fact that that one hit will almost certainly have a major impact on the kid's life. I like the team because I like the players.

Players don't give a poo poo about personal fouls because they're called arbitrarily, and until the NFL makes personal fouls reviewable I am not consuming another second of football. I should stop outright regardless, but I love the game. I will miss chatting with y'all but I can't justify following a sport that has such flagrant disregard for the welfare of its players. I'll see y'all in other subforums."
