2017-18 NFL Thread

If you look at photos of the Hail Mary pass, there's six Eagles and one Patriot where the ball comes down.  (I suppose Gronk might count as two Patriots.)

 

Plenty of new trivia from this game.

 

- Most offensive yardage of any NFL game in all of recorded history

- Second-highest SB score (behind #39 in 1995)

- Most missed PATs in a SB

- Tied for most TD passes in a SB

- First player to throw and receive a TD in a postseason game

- Nick Foles has a better playoff win percentage than Tom Brady

My disdain for He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named is, of course, well documented.  All told, I can't help but feel like the Colts dodged a bullet there. Sure, it sucks for the team short-term, and the embarrassment is going to sting for a while, but the last thing the Colts need is a coach who will do to that franchise what he did to Denver.

I was kind of hoping they'd be together. McDaniels and the Colts really do deserve each other.  :sick:

One final thought on the 2017-18 season:

 

Carson Wentz won five FCS titles with North Dakota State. 

 

Now, in his second year with the Eagles, he also has a Super Bowl ring. 

 

That means he has six rings in seven years.

 

How many people--in any sport, at any level--can say that?
