TCL = Total Crap Line

Math: WAS: 16 week season + 1 bye week + 4 preseason weeks = 21 weeks of football + wildcard + divisional + conference + off week + super bowl = 26 weekends of football If Regular Season Week 1 (the 5th football weekend) is the Sunday after Labor Day, the Super Bowl is the 1st or 2nd Sunday in February NOW 17 week season + 1 bye week + 3 preseason weeks = 21 weeks of football + wildcard + divisional + conference + off week + super bowl = 26 weekends of football Same as before FUTURE (without extra bye) 18 week season + 1 bye week + 3 preseason weeks = 22 weeks of football + wildcard + divisional + conference + off week + super bowl = 27 weekends of football Pushes Super Bowl one week to the right, making it the 2nd or 3rd Sunday in February FUTURE (with extra bye) 18 week season + 2 bye week + 3 preseason weeks = 23 weeks of football + wildcard + divisional + conference + off week + super bowl = 28 weekends of football Pushes Super Bowl two weeks to the right, making it the 3rd or 4th Sunday in February I agree that 18 games should add a 2nd bye.... but they're going to have to revamp the schedule to fit two extra weeks into the calendar. The easiest solution would seem to be the deletion of another preseason game AND start everything a week earlier. In fact, you could start the season on Labor Day Sunday, turning the entire 3-day weekend into a national celebration of football. For the current year, it might look like: August 15-17 weekend - Preseason 1 August 22-24 weekend - Preseason 2 (theoretically, they could also start the weekend before [Aug 8-10], play two preseason weeks then have an off week for final cuts and prep before season kickoff) August 31 (Labor Day Sunday) - Season begins Jaunary 11 - 20th regular season week (18 games + 2 byes) - Final football weekend January 17-18 - Wild Card Janunary 24-25 - Divisional February 1 - Conference February 8 - off week February 15 - Super Bowl I don't think deletion of the off week before the Super Bowl is realistic. Too much money to be made on the hype, too many people making last-minute travel plans if their team is going.... been there, the extra week is actually a net good thing. Anyway, that's my take on it.

I also think if they are going to 18 games they need to reduce the number of Thursday games. Player safety, and all that.

I can see the Browns picking up Justin Tucker on the 11th week of the season when his suspension is up. No 🥷

... I can see he's fitting right in with the Cleveland rapist / abuser team culture. #MistakeOnTheLake 💩

Finally watched the entire thing. I've always kinda liked Jared Goff, and his story was amazing. Really impressed by the Lion's coaching staff and how they welcomed him into the fold. And I could have gone for at least 10 more minutes of his wife in a Bikini. Damn girl! If those puppies are for sale, I'll take the one with the lil' pink nose. Kirk Cousins seems like a really nice guy, but goddamn is he BORING. Total "Basic Bitch" energy. Kinda a-hole who likes Celine Dion and Coldplay. Joe Burrow might be going through a real life "Big". When they talk to him, it was like a 12 year old made a wish with a Genie to be the best QB in the league. As far as the rest... I felt like there was a lot of context missing about what was going on around them. Like we were looking at QB performance in a bubble. They only briefly mention the Lions missing their entire front 7 on defense. I liked Cousins' communication with his coaches. Hated Joe's. Goff was in the middle. Didn't really feel that same two way lane of conversation with Joe and his coaches. Maybe it just wasn't shown. In a broader sense... I wanted Joe to be a lot more vocal. Long before Episode 6. Joe's Mom was Terri Garr. Jamarr Chase looks exactly like his Dad. I don't think you can understate just how good Jamarr is, and how much those two guys being able to bring their existing chemistry to the league has helped them both achieve great things. I loved the "I didn't do shit" exchange. I also really enjoyed them showing Cousins struggling with a new playbook. Goes to show that even 13 year vets can struggle picking that stuff up and just how slim the margins are.

He's always f*ckin' open

JoeyB, nerd at heart

@BlackJesus is really asking if Joe's jockstrap was left by the locker so he could steal it?

I like seeing Millionaires going to Great Clips. :)
