Lol, sorry bud. Such high hopes for the Cowboys, just to crash and burn at home Smh

The Pack had nothing to lose going into that game though and was playing with house money.

Par for the course.

Can I come join the party. Early prediction: Eagles go 9 - 8 next year and still win the stupid NFC East.

We don't turn anyone away.

Texted my buddy after that JJ should call Bellichek. I think large part of the problem is JJ, he maybe puts too much pressure on the players/coaches and gets in their head, thats why they look like crap at the end of the season and in playoffs. Just like the Davis family is the problem with Raiders and that guy running the eagles.

Sure Dak may not be that guy but JJ is the problem which will never be fixed. If he could let BB do his thing, they could at least perform better in the playoffs.

Vikings use 4 QB to get to a game over .500, squeak into WC, and lose in first game.

Bronco fan here. For 2023, first we were bad, then we had a very nice run, then we choked our way out of the playoffs. To borrow a mantra from being a Chicago Cubs fan, "Wait 'til next year!!!"

Haven’t been this pumped for a Chargers season in a loooong time. Harbaugh is going to be our savior!

But then there are my Vikings with the 2nd best scores and now the 11th pick in the draft so there's that.....

For the 2024 season my pick will be the Chiefs again in the superbowl and winning it. Until another team can hold up to them in the playoffs they are the kings, and I think the possibility of a 3-peat will keep the core together. For other interesting AFC teams, I can see the Bengals and Chargers making a surge. I don't see the Ravens doing any better this next season. This is the season the Bills will fall apart, coaching changes, players leaving, etc. The Texans are fun to watch and I hope they keep getting better.

For the NFC I think the 49'ers will regress, the Lions will be back and might be even better, Dallas will be dangerous but I still don't trust them in the playoffs, the Rams could make a superbowl run, and the Packers could be on the upswing. My Vikings will win 9 or 10 games but they will not win the division; the Lions and Packers will probably be better teams. If the Bears get much better than the Vikes may only win 8/9 games.

Superbowl prediction: Chiefs vs Rams, Chiefs win by 4 points

I look forward to reading this in a year and seeing how far off I was

I am literally laughing at 'F-minus'. Didn't know there was such a thing.

Anyone else tracking all the free agent activity? My Vikes lost on the Cousins sweepstakes. I am glad that the Vikings aren't paying that big money to keep him but what's painful is we had a chance to extend Cousins last year on a 3 year deal, and we are stuck with a 28.5 million dead cap hit for Cousins. So we couldn't extend when he had a chance and we still have to pay for him-- extending him was the option that would have reduced or avoided that dead cap hit.

Now my Vikings have to get it right in the draft for QB. Potentially career-making or career-ending decisions coming up for the GM.

Any chance Vikes sign a stopgap veteran QB? Or maybe keep the backups they have.....either way, yeah, big decision.
Packers make 2 huge FA signings, just a damn shame they had to release Jones.

[Donatello.]

Cowboys need to go after Henry.

Phins letting all their talent go & making no moves. Not happy about being a Phins fan...again lol

The local sentiment here is that the Vikes take a shot and make a trade to be able to draft 1 of the first 2/3 QB's in the draft. JJ McCarthy, Drake Maye are some names being tossed around. I am hoping for Jayden Daniels but I think he might be out of reach.

I did see the Packers signed Josh Jacobs and was getting really nervous about them having him and Jones. I imagine it hurts as a Packers fan to lose Jones and I'm hoping the Vikes go after him as we need running back help.

The Gmen lost two of their best players today. This draft and free agency period is going to define Schoen

Here’s to hoping Derrick Henry lands in Dallas. However, have a feeling the Ravens will grab him and Dallas will stand still during free agency.

[GERMAN M3]

Have a feeling the Cowboys may go after Aaron Jones since he won’t be back with the Packers. I just don’t think the Boys are interested in paying what Henry might be worth. We shall see.
