Sure they lost the games but making the SB four years in a row is a great achievement imo. That's an incredible runGoodtimes333 wrote: Fri Sep 18, 2026 9:58 am f[raiders_icon]ck the Bills and their choking asses. I can't believe they didn't can Mcdermott a few years before they did. Their recent playoff runs/success are no different than their 4 straight super bowl losses, just smaller scale. How many times have they choked against KC & then Denver last year on top of it? It's insane how they've come up short year in and out with Allen at QB.
Also I remember the Jason Campbell year where the Raiders were cooking early in the season. Week 3-4 they played at Buffalo & went up 24-0 only to have Fitzpatrick & the Bills come back to win it. Speaking of choking lol. I was not alive to see the 51-3 thrashing but I've read about it. That's thrown in also. Any AFC team I basically dislike. I like watching the Bengals play ball so, perhaps the Bengals I don't outright dislike. Unless they're in competition against the Raiders for something

It is, for sure. The Bills have even had a hell of a run the last 5-6 years without a SB trip. Not to the extent of the SB trips but they've been on a tear. That's just a gnarly kick in the ball sack. To be so successful but ultimately not be, ya know?Hellbound wrote: Sat Sep 19, 2026 5:54 am Sure they lost the games but making the SB four years in a row is a great achievement imo.

Also the Bills irritate me by association due to the overtime rule change yet again a few years ago. They choke in KC and lose in OT fair and square. There's a hoopla over it because morons think the Bills got f[raiders_icon]cked over, rules change. I miss sudden death OT. First score wins. You had 4 quarters to settle it. Any extra time should be first score IMO

4 times in a row to the Super Bowl was a helluva achievement. and if it hadn't been for their f[raiders_icon]cked up kicker they would have and should have won their 1st time there.

Tonight: Falcons at Packers.
What a stinker. Atlanta is terrible and the only reason to watch is to see if they can upset Green Bay, one of the most overrated teams of the past five years. They'll be the crap out of a bad Falcons team and then they'll "Be back baby!"
Penix has been injured so often and so severely that he hasn't had the chance to play enough in order to build on-the-field experience. As for the rest of Atlanta, there doesn't appear to be anything interesting about them.
I'm rooting for Atlanta but expect to be flipping to something else by halftime.

The only thing I dislike more than Thursday night football is football in Brazil, Mexico, Australia, Germany, London, etc. I am old-school – Sunday night and Monday night is good enough for me.. But now, with all the betting going on overtly endorsed by all the professional sports, they will always be more and more games on more and more nights and in more and more places.

Seems like every season the Packers look loaded at WR but can't keep them on the field. Their O line is always banged up as well. Falcons just look bad

We have a team in the Packers that is currently last in completion percentage, rush yards, 3rd down percentage, penalties, fumbles, drops and overall offensive line performance, versus a team who has yet to sniff the red zone. This feels like a formula for a good ol' 6 - 3 game...Opoponax50 wrote: Thu Sep 24, 2026 8:01 am Tonight: Falcons at Packers.

I might lean Atlanta also, assuming Bijan finds a way to break one...
