(Actually, i am far more a Steelers fan than a Patriots fan.  I'm just a fan of truth over narrative.)

I can understand the kneejerk defense of a Michigan ManTM but c'mon:bleeding:

Well.  The Raiders are out, but the Steelers survived.  Ugh.  So my AFC choices are Pittsburgh, KC, New England, and Houston?  I actually think I'm going to let the hate flow full force and root for a Patriots win with Brady as MVP.  I want to see Goodell have to hand the trophy to Brady.  Hilarity and shame ensue!

Broncos made what I think was a smart hire yesterday.  From what I observed for a couple seasons, Vance Joseph was an absolute defensive genius.  On multiple occasions I heard him tell his defensive backs exactly what the other team's offense would throw at them the next series.  Very even tempered guy and he knows how to communicate with each of his players.  Hopefully all his skills translate well up into the head coach level.

One possible area of concern that may work against him as HC: he may be too nice of a guy :P

I wonder how many more times we have to see the Rex Ryan Show.

Dunno; I just hope he keeps getting tattoos for each team he coaches.

The Rams averaged only filled their stadium to 89.8% capacity! That's 28th in the league!

If the motherfucking Rams can't do better than that in their first year back to LA after being gone for 20 years, what the hell makes the Chargers think they'll have any success?

It is an incredibly stupid move by the Chargers. Their new home in LA is a 27,000 seat Soccer Stadium  :lol: I mean how lame is that? When was the last time a NFL team had a home attendance average under 30,000?

I have to applaud the voters of San Diego for calling their bluff.

Hmm... the numbers on the ESPN site are wonky, it's only counting one game for the Rams.

However, this shows that the Rams were pulling in weak numbers all season. 
http://theramswire.usatoday.com/2016/12/06/los-angeles-rams-home-attendance-memorial-coliseum-san-diego-chargers/

This has the total numbers for 2016, 665,318 for 2nd in the league in total attendance and an average of 83,164 per game. However their stadium has a capacity of 93,607. That's 88.8% capacity. LA has 4 million people in the city limits and 13 million in the metro area. They should fill it every single game.

It's as if Paul Tagliabue is still commissioner.  Such a hard-on for TV market share, even if nobody's watching.
