NFL 2023: WEEK 11 Men on the field, Buffalo

How would the other 15 games line up during the Superbowl rematch week?

I’m sure the smart guys in the NFL scheduling office could figure out a way to do this. Or maybe not.

Ah, I thought you meant the current format automatically generates a rematch. I think to guarantee one you’d have to have the 17th game be almost random - if it’s not the division-division matchup, you’d have weirdness where you play an out of cycle and out of placement game - instead of playing AFC West 1st place team, you’d be playing AFC North second place, so what does AFC West 1st place do instead?

She didn’t even go that far in her “clarification”.

What that “clarifies” is that she first admitted fabricating comments and when that blew up in her face, denied it ever happened.

This kind of thing apparently used to be commonplace, but in the age of social media scrutiny and omnipresent recording devices, sportswriters and commentators are less likely to get away with it.

My best friend is an Eagles fan, both his Eagles and my 49ers have rematch games this season for all of our respective playoff games last season.

That sounds like fun. :+1:

Eagles play the Giants, Niners, and Chiefs.
Niners play the Seahawks, Cowboys, and Niners.

Chiefs also match up with their playoff opponents: Jags, Bengals, Eagles.

That’s gonna be a tight one!

What an idiot. Obviously meant the Eagles.

I swear I was going to post that you must have made a mistake here. I can’t believe the Giants weren’t only in the playoffs last year, they made it to the second round.

You’re not an idiot, @Railer13 . Say it.

Okay, I’m not an idiot. Just old and prone to obvious mistakes, more so than I used to be!

Welcome to the Tommy DeVito era! (Possibly premature…)

Hmm. Bears have a 23-14 lead over the Lions, early in the 4th. Goff has thrown 3 interceptions.

4 Lions turnovers. Ugly. Fields looks like Fields. Holding the ball way too long and indecisive, but electric when he runs. It’s like watching vintage Colin Kaepernick.

And the Lions have scored a TD and now get the ball back with just over two minutes to go. 26-21 Bears.

I think the Browns have 12 drops today, mostly because whoever this random quarterback is can’t throw on target. They really should’ve signed some kind of vet like Joe Flacco or Matt Ryan or something.

Steelers - Browns living down to my abysmal billing. I’ve seen more passes for negative yardage than I can ever remember. Both QBs on short leashes. How does Pittsburg do it. Nothing in the first half, then a 70+ yard TD run to open the second. Brown QB has only managed one interception this time - progress!! The betting under is secure.

I’ve said it before, but I’m consistently surprised just how little resources go into backup QBs in todays NFL.

17 (seventeen) punts so far.
