I’m not boomer but it’s working for this Dallas team y’all are terrified of. It’s working for Tennessee and SF. 
 

Y’all act like every team has to be like Chiefs or the season isn’t worth playing. 
 

“Damn still no Mahomes in the draft, should just cancel the season this year”.

This is so on point it’s I want to quote it twice. Like dam there’s so many ways to win run the ball and make a few plays passing with a strong defense can get you a win vs any team in the nfl.

Wilks is a low tier coach and "ground and pound with a tough d" is boomer poo that hasn't won since the early 80s

Lol not even being funny but how much football do you really watch. That’s San Fran’s whole dam setup to a T. Let me ask, so you mean if you don’t win the super bowl it’s not even worth going to the playoffs lol? Im just trying to figure the logic here only one team wins but every team wants a chance to play in extremely meaningful games that elevates your team from the experiences of playing in such a high level pressure packed game(playoff games). What do you mean hasn’t won since the 80’s

What you mean? We had drunk Kerry Collins and Jake Delhomme who had never started a playoff game. He had been a back up for 5 years?

There's a lot of people here who would rather not let the facts get in the way of their narrative...

Anyone who thinks the national perspective of either of these teams being a juggernaut heading into the playoffs either didn't live through it or has revisionist history...

The 2015 team was a juggernaut going into the playoffs. No doubt about that.  However...

The 1996 team was considered a lucky expansion team with some legit defensive talent but no one trusted that offense with Kerry Collins. 

The 2003 team was the original iteration of the Cardiac Cats.  Nationally, the narrative was that we snuck into the playoffs winning a lot of close OT games that went our way (which is true), and that we greatly benefitted from the Bucs imploding off their SB win and Michael Vick breaking his leg in preseason and missing most of the year.  Again, people thought the defense was legit, but no one saw the offensive explosion that came in the 2003 playoffs or believed we had any chance against the NFC's best.

Point being, the narrative written after the season is much different than the one during the season, and rightfully so.

So much of this fanbase has become so accustomed to failure that they actively fear what a playoff appearance could bring.

Cdparr7 is the guy who says we'll win 11 or 12 games when you ask during preseason ... every preseason. Then when the teams stumbles he vanishes a bit. Then when there's a chance of something happening for the team, he returns. Cdparr7 is also the guy who doesn't understand that falling ass bakward into the Playoffs this year is not the same as making the Playoffs year after year due to being an elite franchise.

But hey, man, enjoy your Wild Card game if we get it! Get pumped! Wear your Carolina colors! Cheer your asss off! Then when your next post is way way away on Draft day ... tell us all how you have a great feeling about the upcoming season! 12-5! Keep Pounding!

Hey @Brooklyn 3.0 and @Snake get over here, I want to drink some tanker tears!

No tears. Neat, we won. Sam and Matt will be our QBs next season. If we magically make the Playoffs, we will probably lose the first game. But you enjoy your huge win today, super fan!

If you told me after firing Rhule we'd still have a chance to make it to the playoffs, I'd be ecstatic.

Who cares, no QB in this upcoming draft is a sure thing anyways. I'd like to see us finish as strong as we can than see us deflate the rest of the year away.

    • Strange, every news article and tweet I just searched all mentioned waivers. It is definitely his sixth year of at least 6 games. All I was trying to think of earlier was at the vet min could he beat out Bryce in camp next year lol. He's kinda got the old Darnold issue where he can obviously launch deep balls and qb run at a level Bryce will never achieve, but it sounds like he would be content being like a Josh Allen backup who doesn't throw the whole game plan out the window if he has to come in for a series or two. If we had him and for some reason still wanted to start Bryce he would kinda do what Justin Fields was doing the other night with Dangeruss, coming in for designed runs and maybe some play action/triple option rpo things to go deep. That would be so obvious and sad though. At least Russ can still sling it 40 yards in the air with a flick of the wrist
    • Too late to edit above but the quote is from this Diane Russini article in the Athletic: https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/5941684/2024/11/23/russinis-what-im-hearing-the-day-the-jets-fell-apart-and-the-broncos-rallied-belichick-best-fits/ Okay.. there you have sorry I left that out the first post.  Also waivers keep the contract intact. That is the major difference in released and waived. It's all in that link from the other post.
    • Okay so I am reading something in The Athletic and it says that Jones had to pass through waivers. So I don't know. I looked this stuff up when we were number one there all offseason and I thought it said 4 years in the league got you vested, as they call it.  Vested gets you out of waivers as I understood it. I probably got something wrong, but when I think about the slack quality of journalism these days I wonder about that. So I went and looked, again. Well, well.  For everyone: "When a player has accrued at least four seasons in the NFL, they are considered a vested veteran. When these vested veterans get cut, they are released and their contract is terminated. When a vested veteran is released, they are an unrestricted free agent that can sign with any NFL team, and the team that released them doesn’t need to provide any additional compensation." It runs it all down here, where the quotes came from: https://www.profootballnetwork.com/waived-vs-released-nfl/ As far as Jones, the team turned down his 5th year option so I knew that meant he had 4 years in, because they re-signed him anyway, after turning down the much cheaper extra year.  The Athletic is owned by the New York Times so I shouldn't be surprised. That paper was an institution once upon a time but they let their standards go.
