Yep. Champions League and money have killed it, devalued ever since United forfeited for the club world cup too. I love the fact that the USA don't care its a closed shop and name the winner as 'World Champions', the FA Cup could've done the same as it was watched everywhere, yet I could barely name the past few finals and knew them all in the 80s.
What year was that and who's watch?
Maybe, but I have had hardly and interest in the artists they have on at halftime. Have a band on or artist I would like and I watch it .
I think the season after they won the treble so around 2000.
Nope and I get the comparison with the accompanying 'show', but for me it's not sport.
Probably not, but one day I am sure we will see a mass-shooting at a penalty shootout.
It's gonna be in a movie one day, Taylor swift and all
We won't give him a fully guaranteed contract and he's never really "co-operated" in terms of releasing funds against the cap. Always been about the money first. Can't see how they can give a fully guaranteed 3 year contract to a 36 year old who's coming off a serious injury. Plus we have other issues - Jefferson is going to get paid massive (although if we've not got a top QB for next few years that's probably money down the drain), Darrisaw needs paying, Hunter will be expensive if he stays(no passrush atm without him) plus a few others need paying.Personally I'm against paying elite QB money for someone who doesn't have it in them to win big games - been with us 6 seasons & only got to playoffs twice (1-3 record there).
Not going to cost them much for first year at least (vet minimum 1.2m dollars) as Broncos on the hook for his salary (39m).
That's mad to think that Case Keenum has the same number of playoff wins in one season as Cousins has in six.
Think the Falcons would pay him. Apparently 3 others in the mix.
We had keenum in 2017. Had to step in after Sam Bradford went down early (had been good replacing the injured Teddy Bridgewater). Not a great arm but could extend plays. Had two great receivers -thielen and it was Diggs breakout year (Minneapolis miracle) plus Dalvin Cook rookie year. Didn't have to score many points as we had an outstanding Zimmer defense that season. Got completely outcoached in Championship game against the Eagles.
exactly right. I think it's just 2 seasons with over 50% wins, until 2 seasons ago his comeback win record was appalling - think it was just 8 in first 4 seasons (new HC and Jefferson helped have 8 in 2022/23). Vikings's problems are mediocre, unambitious owners whoare satisified with not having losing seasons. Mike Zimmer never wanted him for all the reasons you said.
Even as a neutral, the Minneapolis Miracle was one of my favourite moments in the NFL for sheer what the hell just happened there
Not surprised, the Falcons are mad giving him what he is rumoured to be getting
Paid massive money to win weakest division. Bidding against themselves - vikings were offering a max of 2 years. Plenty of young offensive talent at Falcons. But still noone knows how Cousins will come back after a serious industry.
2nd highest paid player in NFL history after Rodgers. No-one is franchise -tagging a QB twice again in NFL. (Washington 2016 & 2017)
Never understood why he's been pursued so highly over his career. Was never going to take you to the next level and certainly not when you're spending a huge chunk on him and leaving other parts of the squad light.
He is a top 5 QB in terms of passing ability
Broncos had a history of QB disasters. It was a desperate move for a QB Seahawks wanted out anyway. Seahawks got an incredible price for him. Broncos also had to trade/cut some top players to pay him as well.
