This is why you draft a QB with a top 3 pick. Maye, Williams, and Daniels might be busts but you have to take that swing.

Drafting Young over Stroud cost Frank Reich and the GM their jobs and will probably make Houston contenders for the next decade. What a huge swing for two franchises.

They moved the Bills Steelers game? What the fuck? It’s an outdoor sport here. Play the fucking game. Or move the team. I don’t give a shit either way. This isn’t chess. For fuck’s sake.

Re: Peacock, if anyone has a Chase card (Sapphire Reserve, Sapphire Preferred, Freedom, Freedom Flex, Freedom Unlimited, Freedom Rise, Freedom Student, Slate, Slate Edge) you can get a free subscription to Instacart+ from 3 months to a year depending on the card.

With Instacart+ comes a free subscription to Peacock.
You are a beautiful man

The governor has ordered the roads closed, but maybe they can find some magic reindeer to fly them to the stadium. And the teams while they're at it.
But I had made plans to watch the game. Nobody consulted with me. Not even a text.

Also, I am disappointed that the NFL hates MLK. We all should be bothered by that.

Affected Area
Erie, Genesee, and Wyoming counties
Description
...WINTER STORM WARNING REMAINS IN EFFECT UNTIL 7 AM EST MONDAY... WHAT...Heavy lake effect snow and very strong winds expected. Total snow accumulations of 1 to 2 feet in the most persistent lake snows, with local amounts approaching 3 feet where the bands persist the longest. Winds gusting as high as 60 mph early in the event will diminish late tonight. Blizzard conditions will be possible at times, especially tonight and Sunday. WHERE...Erie, Genesee, and Wyoming counties. WHEN...Until 7 AM EST Monday. IMPACTS...Travel will be very difficult to impossible at times with deep snow cover on roads. Widespread blowing snow will reduce visibility to near zero in lake effect bands. Very strong winds could cause extensive tree and powerline damage. PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS... Heavy snow will fall in relatively narrow bands and this combined with blowing snow will reduce visibility to near zero. Travel will be extremely difficult to impossible in heavy lake effect bands. Travel within lake effect bands will be extremely dangerous tonight and Sunday.

Of course they could have just scheduled KC for early and Houston late, but I guess this makes the NFL an extra million in advertising monies or something
Peacock paid $110 million for a primetime game, not a Saturday opener

I am not seeing the problem. Football is not played by trees or power lines. Sheesh.

I don't get the pushback to your posts. We want to watch other people do stuff - and it can be risky or uncomfortable or silly as long as its entertaining - while we are safe and warm in our mom's basements. Why is Kathy Hochul not thinking of US?

Exactly. Slippery slope. Next she’s going to say we shouldn’t keep score because it might make some people feel bad? This is not the Soviet Union.

No kidding. Houston basically a model this Pats rebuild. And we have Chicago in front of us as this year's version of Carolina; i.e. idiots. (I think the new Washington regime makes a smart decision.)
I'm pretty sure the Bears are taking Caleb, and if not, he's going to Washington. So we're looking at either Maye or Daniels.

I agree but Houston has a good o line and the receivers are decent. The Jets picked Darnold third and Wilson second overall and it went to shit both times because the infrastructure was poor and the player never developed which in some part is on the player.
