Rodgers is probably sick of playing in Lambeau in the dead of winter. I believe he lives in California during the off-season, and his charitable donations during his stint on Jeopardy! were donated to a California charity, rather than one in Wisconsin/Green Bay.
Rodgers has also expressed an interest in taking over as the new permanent host of Jeopardy!
Not sure what his chances are there, but he did a good job the two weeks he recently guest-hosted.
Players seem to "relax" after they sign a big contract. The list of players who had a stellar season after signing for big money seems relatively short. Quite often, once they get paid they seem to have "disappointing" results in the next season(s). See recent quarterbacks that have now been...
The Steelers have reportedly reached an agreement with Ben Roethlisberger on a one-year contract for next season.
The NFL is also reportedly considering reverting back to the old "sudden death" overtime rules.
The "well, duh!" statement of the day from Kansas City's GM about how to fix the offensive line for next season:
“I think it will be a combination of what we have in house and blending that with some new talent,” Veach said, via Matt McMullen of the team’s website.
Yeah, that's what every...
Just shows that QB's successful in college mostly have no idea how the game is played professionally. Few of them seem to find any significant level of success in the NFL. And those that do well in the first year often seem to regress in the second or third years (usually right after signing a...
The defense played well, but were there major changes on the Bucs defense from last year to this? It seems like the major changes everyone's talking about that triggered Tampa's SB run were Brady, with Gronk, Fournette, and Brown as contributors. All the points scored in the SB for Bucs were by...
Yeah, I don't know what KC spent the last two weeks doing, but it obviously wasn't preparing or practicing. Pretty sad showing for supposedly one of the "best" teams in the NFL.
Brady now has more Super Bowl titles individually (7) than any team (Patriots and Steelers both have 6).
Major blunder by the Packers in not going for it on 4th and goal from the 8. They kicked a field goal instead, which left them still needing a touchdown to win.
Down by 8 points with only four minutes to go in the conference championship game is not the time to be hyper-conservative.
I doubt he lasts that long. As soon as he finds he doesn't have the same level of power over highly-paid grown men that he has over unpaid college students, he'll either leave or the locker room will turn against him and he'll be fired.
The Rooneys need to clean house. Completely unacceptable performance from the Steelers who were woefully unprepared to take on an opponent that was missing several players, their head coach, and didn't have a regular practice schedule during the week due to COVID precautions. Ben is done, and...
Hey Giants, how about being 10-6 instead of 6-10 and depending on the kindness of others if you want to be in the playoffs?
If you had any talent worthy of the playoffs, you'd be there. Just a team of spoiled children with egos bigger than ability.
Like Tony, just a few audio dropouts. No black screens.
EDIT: Though it does sound like there were issues in some locations: https://deadline.com/2020/12/amazon-prime-video-nfl-jittery-49ers-cardinals-stream-1234661728/
I was also able to stream it for the first time on my TV with my new 4K...
I'd love to have games on more different days. That's been the one upside to pandemic NFL, we get to see more games on different nights.
Though it's my understanding this past Monday's Steelers-Football Team game was not broadcast nationwide. So if they're going with more windows. but only...
I don't know why the Ravens next game had to be moved (or Steelers for that matter). Playing on Wed/Sun is no different than playing on Sun/Thu. Both are four days apart.
