Around the NFL - 2016

[QB Eagles]

There's a scenario where the Lions go into Sunday night with the ability to clinch a first round bye with a win and are eliminated from the playoffs with a loss.

[General_Failure]

That's the most Lions thing I've ever heard of.

[QB Eagles]

Here's another thing I just noticed: more than 75% of teams that start 3-0 historically make the playoffs.

This year's 3-0 teams:
Patriots
Broncos
Vikings
Eagles
Ravens

Jesus what a colossal dickhead.  Great player and all but he's a prime example of the arrogance and self-absorption of professional athletes these days.

[Diomedes]

Meh.  I like the dude.

[General_Failure]

They pay you to go to practice and do all the PR shtein. You play the games so they have to pay you more next time.

[Rome]

Suggesting that the media should feel privileged to hear anything he has to say is laughable.  What the media should do is collectively turn their backs the next time he stands up at the podium, or better yet, walk the farg out.

that dude loves drama

hes gonna be good on tv

[QB Eagles]

Speaking of good on TV, can any of the networks get Rex on in time for the playoffs?

[MDS]

if cbs had a brain they would have him and rex in studio on sunday

[Eagaholic]

I think Rex would be enjoyable on studio tv. Buddy sucked at it even though he was probably the goat with sound bites and after the game stuff.

[ice grillin you]

this continues to amaze me....the eagles traded a shtein ton to get what looks to be a good middle American fine young qb....great news right!!

cept in the same farging draft Dallas gets a brother who might be the best young qb ever in the fourth round

[Rome]

He has great weapons and the best offensive line in the NFL.   Put Wentz in that situation and he'd be every bit as successful. 

[smeags]

it doesn't matter rome, wentz is white, loves the bible and bought his o-linemen weapons of mass destruction.

[Diomedes]

 Also, he's white.
