Brady held the ball for over 6 seconds. Even Hoorta could have gotten to him. Defense didn't do schidt.

1100 +yards of total offense = Defense doens't do schidt.

Well....you are  right...perhaps for the first time ever.  These defenses really did perform terribly.  These 2 teams combined for more total yards than any two teams ever have in any NFL game....postseason OR regular season.

I thought I was watching a Big 12 Game.  No pressure on either QB for most of the game.  Very loose coverage. Guys wide open all over the place.

If this is the way the league is going....then perhaps we should draft one of those Big 12 QBs. 

They scheduled a football game and a track meet broke out.

Yup, the cartels are ruthless. You might go over into mexico and your body comes back with no head. Ive been to Conroe and Dallas. I saw Steve Earle play outdoors half way from San Antonio to Austin. Been to Willie Nelsons picnic. Texas jam in Dallas.

I went through Redeye Missile School at Ft. Bliss Tx.  The only thing you had to worry about in Juarez then was catching the Clap.

And Ft. Worth has the art scene with the Kimbell Museum which constantly rotates in world class exhibitions.  My wife and I went to see one just a few years ago on The Impressionists. There were multiple paintings there by Renior, Van Gogh, Monet, Manet, etc. we had seen in various Paris art museums just the year before. What a place!

NFL player tracking, also known as Next Gen Stats, is the capture of real time location data, speed and acceleration for every player, every play on every inch of the field. Sensors throughout the stadium track tags placed on players' shoulder pads, charting individual movements within inches.

Stats

Passing Stats

Time To Throw (TT)

Time to Throw measures the average amount of time elapsed from the time of snap to throw on every pass attempt for a passer (sacks excluded).

Average Completed Air Yards (CAY) and Average Intended Air Yards (IAY)

Air Yards is the total yards gained on a pass attempt past the line of scrimmage before the ball is caught. CAY shows the average Air Yards a passer throws on completions, and IAY shows the average Air Yards a passer throws on all attempts. This metric shows how far the ball is being thrown ‘downfield’. Air Yards is recorded as 0 when the pass is thrown to or behind the Line of Scrimmage. Additionally Air Yards is not calculated into the back of the end zone.

Average Air Yards Differential (AYD)

Air Yards Differential is calculated by subtracting the passer’s average Intended Air Yards from his average Completed Air Yards. This stat indicates if he is on average attempting deep passes than he on average completes.

Longest Completed Air Distance (LCAD)

Air Distance is the amount of yards the ball has traveled on a pass, from the point of release to the point of reception (as the crow flies). Unlike Air Yards, Air Distance measures the actual distance the passer throws the ball.

Aggressiveness (AGG%)

Aggressiveness tracks the amount of passing attempts a quarterback makes that are into tight coverage, where there is a defender within 1 yard or less of the receiver at the time of completion or incompletion. AGG is shown as a % of attempts into tight windows over all passing attempts.

Air Yards to the Sticks (AYTS)

Air Yards to the Sticks shows the amount of Air Yards ahead or behind the first down marker on all attempts for a passer. The metric indicates if the passer is attempting his passes past the 1st down marker, or if he is relying on his skill position players to make yards after catch.

And once again we see why defense wins. Had NE shown any Brady would have won. And a defensive play wins for the Eagles at the end.

James Brown how cool was that. Also I love those old bar stories and some you've experienced on your own when you were very young or old enough to reminisce....oh yeah.

I thought I was seeing things, but the band seemed to recognize him right away and gave him that slow background music so he took the mike and started "Please, please, please". I can't even remember now what the other one he did was, but that one was just great! I was already three sheets to the wind and it's been 50 years, so who knows.

You ever play at The Cellar in Ft. Worth? When I was in college I was there once hoping to see a little stripping when out of the night strolls this black guy who looked a bit familiar. He sang a couple of his songs from the 60's for free and strolled back out. Exit James Brown.

Chung Wa's in Boston?  

I was in Boston last summer.....We ate lunch at Cheers....but not the original one.  The one that was in the marketplace there.

Pro football focus might recognize it but the NFL doesn't. I already posted the NFL record book straight from the horse's mouth. Cleveland Browns : 4 championships.

The AAFC doesn't count. It's like they won the XFL or Arena league championship. Great. Good for them. They were even good enough to win the NFL championship in their first NFL year. That's a great accomplishment. But the AAFC does not count outside of the AAFC which has been folded for...68 years now. 

Well....here is what we accept:  thay you are wrong and stupid.   They count everywhere but one place...and you are too ignorant to have bothered to understand why that is. 

I am not sure that there is much more to be said.

I was in Houston, Baytown, Dallas, College Station, Bryan, Hearne , among a few other quick stops and mainly 1970s and 1980s may have changed a dit since then. I was with two major companies back then.

That is true. I used to go to Pittsburgh occasionally business or pleasure and visited many bars, pubs and eateries sometimes listening to Pirates games, never a problem. Same in Texas, but never really cared for the state.

Both of them fine young men but that has no bearing on whether or not I root for the Eagles. I've enjoyed every visit I've ever made to Philadelphia and had a great time at the 2nd Street Brewhouse where I assume they are all Eagles fans. I've also enjoyed my trips to Pittsburgh and know many fine people from there. I've had a good time in Dallas too. None of that has any bearing on who I root for in the Super Bowl.

I also like the Buffalo Bills just because I spent an evening at Frank & Teresa's Anchor Bar.
