Super Bowl LII Thread

Fletcher Cox will play in a Super Bowl, claims he has never watched one – ProFootballTalk

I bet you there are many players around the league that don't watch, I remember Will bLAkmon saying he's never liked watching football.


As for the game itself,

I'm going Pats 30 Eagles 21

I’m sure there are players that don’t watch much football but Cox clearly has watched a SB. He sounds like people that like to brag about not watching any TV.

I don't want to derail this thread but this conversation reminds me of this SNL skit lol:



To stay on track, I hope the Pats win. I'd rather they win 10 SB's than the Eagles win their first.

Just and overview of the NFC East.Skins are improving ,the Giants are fixing things the Cowboys should be good again if they can keep Zek on the field for a year and the Eagles are in the Super Bowl.I would say that the NFC East is again on it's way up. A very nice stat I didn't know until today.


"The NFC East teams have combined to be the most successful division in the NFL since the 1970 NFL merger with 20 NFC Championship wins and 12 Super Bowl victories, the highest marks of any division in the NFL."

I hope the Eagles get the crap kicked out of them and have a SB loss-hangover that lasts several seasons. But boy, they sure dominated the Vikings, and I have to believe that this will be a dogfight.

The Eagles strategy of having lots of D-linemen and platooning them in and out will be tested as I expect Bellichick to do a lot of hurry up as the counter. Playing indoors will also work to the advantage of the team with better overall speed -- Cooks could have a good day for NE.

Love Vince but he already tried this shit, it won't succeed as long as the NFL is around.

I hope it does succeed, and I can't wait for it to start. I will be watching! Vince said it's not going to be the same XFL that it was back in 2001. No gimmicks, no WWE crossover talent. None of that stuff! The teams, the league - all owned by McMahon. No one with a criminal record will be allowed in the league. That includes Manziel. There will be no display of social protests in the league. Vince is giving this league two years to prepare, so that they can scout out the best players and have them practicing in advance in order to put out a better product.

I like what Vince McMahon is doing. He said the XFL is not going to be a development league for the NFL. He wants it to be its own professional league. 8 teams (to start with) and a 10 week season. He has my support!

He also isn't going to have any time for Player protests or any of that. I don't want to re-ignite the Anthem debate, but Vince has the right idea by saying that the national anthem / flag, etc., will not be televised / part of the game, because people don't want to watch patriotism or politics, they want to watch football. He did say that he had no issue with protests, kneeling, etc., as long as they were on the players' free time and not the XFL's.

Only thing i don't get though, if Vince is the owner of all 8 teams, how can he decide how to make the teams competitive, or decide which team he wants to make try and win? I don't mean like he's going to rig it, but i am asking, like will he hire 8 independent general managers, give them all the same amount of money, and tell them may the best man win?

Competition is always a good thing but let’s be honest, a new league is always facing a tremendous uphill battle.

Would love to see a RG3 name plate on the back of a jersey.
