100%. As much as many of us despise constantly expanding playoffs, this is why they do it. And it ain't stopping.

ESPN succeeds at getting clicks yet again. I promise you whoever wrote that crap doesn't actually think Baker is in the same group as the 4 guys behind him.

Happy for JV, that's pretty cool. If he's got enough left to pitch like he did in the 2nd half, that could be a hell of a rotation.

There wasn't really a compelling storyline this year. You kind of need that when you strip away everything else that's normally cool about a football game. No home field advantage, no raucous crowd, plus you kill the momentum of the season with the off week.

It's just a sterile environment with a quiet crowd in a random city. It needs some juice, and this matchup didn't have it.

The ad shows their roots in moonshining runs and many other “having fun and drinking beer” ways, it really was well done. One can only hope they start undoing some of the BS. They show families not dressed to like F1 high rollers. They are going back after the blue collar fan and family. Time will tell.

Between the marketing and the points change it does seem like a genuine effort to cater to traditional fans. Guess we'll see.

A black guy in a Larson shirt was interesting. The sport is healing :lol:

It's nice they at least put color back in but these all still suck compared to the 90s logos.

Always does. The world needs whores. If a woman wants to be one, that's her business, but don't drag a decent man into it and put children through that mess.

It's the portal era. Every team is in the same boat. fricking Indiana just won the championship. You load up best you can for next year and you coach. Then you do it again the following year. There is no more slow burn program building.

Agreed, I kinda root for outdoor teams to advance and host so I can see these games. It'll be a thing of the past before long.

Personally I would want a fresh voice in the room if I’m making this move. Not sure how much things change by just adding in the same OC or a previous one

Yeah, to make firing him make sense it seems like you'd hire an offensive coach from outside the Bills family. I hate when a team fires a guy for the sake of change, but then they don't actually change.

Might not be a popular pick but I'd go with McCarthy and a DC to handle the other side of the ball. Allen is 30 next season and I'd want a proven guy for these next few years while he's still at his peak.
