Beer, too

While not a perfect analogy, the Patriots v Jets were about as close as you could get to watching paint dry on a football field.

Quite a finish to the KC / San Diego game.

Wasn't any doubt. You can give KC 1:23 to score a game-winning TD

I disagree. I think it’s a PERFECT analogy. In fact, here’s a screenshot of my Facebook post during the 4th quarter.

Green Bay loses to Detroit, but beats Dallas... Dallas tore Minnesota apart, who beat Buffalo last week... and the Jets managed something like 100 yards of offense (1/3 of their first downs came off penalties... they only had 2 of those!) and only lost by a touchdown against a team that outgained them by almost 3 to 1. I think the value of Sunday Ticket just dropped $500 million in one weekend.

I actually think the opposite is true. Yesterday’s Jets-Patriots game increased the value of NFL ST. If you have ST, you could have escaped the game that set the NFL back 70 years. If Jets-Patriots was your only NFL alternative, you probably switched over to C-SPAN or the Shirley Temple marathon. Or maybe you called your dentist and begged him to fit you in for a root canal that you didn’t even need.

The joy of ST, to me, is watching all of the games in a communal setting. But I get what you are saying. A better example was the CBS late game. 90% of the country got a blow out Minnesota -Dallas, with only the AFC North region getting a pretty good Cincinnati-Pittsburgh.

CBS left the Dallas game early….

Most of these international games are either interconference or intraconference matchups. Why would the Cardinals be willing to give up a very coveted home date against a divisional opponent? To make matters worse, Joe Buck said the Mexico City crowd is 85% Niners fans, and the Cardinals got booed during introductions at their “home game”. It’s not even a neutral game for them, it’s a road game.

The Joy of the Sunday Ticket is that for the last 25+ years my Dad (and Mom) and I have been able to watch the Steelers Play EVERY week .... Hard to do from NW Ohio without.

Yeah, I was hoping that our trip to Denver last month could have included a Broncos game at Mile High, but it was a way-away game in London that Sunday.

I’m sure you had a winky-eye emoji in there…

My pre-Thanksgiving NFL tiers:

Tier 1-
1. Bills- the best roster top to bottom in the NFL, and they beat the Chiefs in KC
2. Chiefs- best QB in the NFL, and as of right now the AFCCG goes through Arrowhead

Tier 2-
3. Eagles. Were in tier 1, but have looked very underwhelming the last 2 weeks
4. Cowboys- very impressive win in Minnesota, but I’m sorry I can’t trust them in January
5. 49ers- IMO, the second best roster after the Bills. Biggest difference is they don’t have a QB like the Bills have
6. Titans- very solid team, but I just don’t know how far Tannehill can take them
7. Ravens- watch out for them is all I’ll say
8. Dolphins- dynamic offense, meh defense
9. Bengals- Great QB and skill players, I worry about their defense though
10. Vikings- yes they’re 8-2 and they beat the Bills in Buffalo, but that loss to the Cowboys…..WTF was that???!!!

And the rest-

11. Buccaneers
12. Seahawks
13. Patriots
14. Giants
15. Chargers
16. Commanders
17. Jets
18. Falcons
19. Lions
20. Packers
21. Browns
22. Colts
23. Bears
24. Saints
25. Steelers
26. Rams
27. Raiders
28. Jaguars
29. Broncos
30. Cardinals
31. Panthers
32. Texans
