Young lad better clean up his tweets, the media will be coming for him now.

Presume they've edited this to take out the quotes that he and Clemson have come out to say he never gave?

Just on watching nfl abroad gonna be in New York for superbowl weekend. Conveniently planned might I add! Anyway anyone ever been over there for one and if so any reccomendations for places to go for the experience bringing her so some type of sports bar with good food and beer will do.

Suggest looking into places and see what parties they are holding, some will be ticket only and will be on sale already. Best not to be trawling around Manhattan on the day looking to get into places as it's starting.

Doing the same thing, 4 of us staying in Herald Square in midtown so will probably stick near there. Will probably end up at a bar owned by a local here if it’s as tough to get into a place as kmart6 says.

Plan on getting to Knicks Celtics in Madison Square Garden, was never at a sports fixture there.

this play was also the turning point of the game as cox also got injured on this play and the saints run game started motoring with cox going in and out of the lineup.

I hated that live, the broadcaster showed the play from the spider cam. Side on view would have been much better as initially I couldn’t see where he was stopped

Larry Fitz hit a hole in one today while playing golf, good on him, was witnessed by his partner a certain barrack obama

Scott linehan gone in Dallas
James Coley the Georgia offensive coordinator is a favorite to replace him

Shots at Hue keep coming, Duke Johnson also responded saying not to forget about Haley.

Players shouldn't be doing that.

No it's a bit pathetic, especially now, but it shows the animosity from the Browns roster (or at least a few of them) towards Hue and Haley, and it was something they probably thrived on.

Achieves nothing except making them look like d1cks! Move on.

Not that I would have watched it but just saw that CBS are having Steve Harvey host the NFL Honours, that will have to turn people off.

Interesting one there about Wentz.

It has since been denied of course, but there’s usually no smoke without fire on these sort of stories, especially something as relatively obscure as this.

The Patriots have shown how dressing room disharmony can affect results.

No surprise there. Was listening to a few Chiefs podcasts, and they all wanted him out.

That shows they want to win it all. Smart move. Now they just have to get a real good one.

Billy86 · 22-01-2019 08:46PM

Good move if they didnt feel he was the guy, especially if it means they dont find themselves looking back in 10+ years with a 35 year old Mahomes wondering what could have been if they actually tried to put a defense on the other side of the ball all those years...

Big Pussy Bonpensiero · 22-01-2019 09:05PM

They ranked 31st in yards allowed and 24th in points allowed. He was never making it to next season. Shouldn't be too hard to find an improvement.

live footage of Rex running to Kansas as we speak!!

Just a comment on the story about Carson wentz and the eagles. I'm sure some that is true and he's a different personality to nick foles(you don't have to be a football genius to see that) and the offence did run much differently and more successfully under foles. There were a few times during this past season before he got injured where Carson wentz made so very strange in game decisions which I'm still not sure why he did it. There was one that sticks out and it was throwing to Alshon Jeffrey in double coverage in the end zone when I think Smallwood the RB was open.

I feel like this post isn't really about the Chiefs, but I can't quite put my finger on why!

Panthers game when we blew the 17 point lead, I'd say he came back too early this season and relied on ertz too much as he knew he could release the ball quick, I'm gonna assume a good off season of recovery for his back and he will be back 100%, it's good to see the team rally behind him and call out the journalist hell even players not with the team say it's bs

An interesting one I heard was that foles and wentz have similar release times (although watching wentz seems I take longer) however when protection breaks down quick foles gets rid of it whereas wentz try's to escape and that didn't really work one year back from injury

It could be true or not but it makes sense and even if it is true who knows if he gets the same mobility back that he had prior to the injury

I'm off the Monday after the Superbowl and gonna head to Dublin to meet a few friends for it. Where would be a good place to go watch the game?
