NFL Week 15 Reactions

Buffalo Bills (11-3) @ Detroit Lions (12-2)

The Bills keep playing amazing games and Josh Allen keeps looking insane. Him and Jared Goff had an awesome duel and both teams put up over 500 yards of offense.

As great as Lions have been, they have by no means secured even the division title.

Pittsburgh Steelers (10-4) @ Philadelphia Eagles (12-2)

The Eagles keep ignoring the off-the-field noise and winning on the field. The passing game had a resurgence and everyone should be happy again.

New England Patriots (3-11) @ Arizona Cardinals (7-7)

The Patriots simply lost to a better team. The same problems that have dogged the Pats all year continue to occur. The one good thing is that if we win its great, but even if we lose, it gets us a better draft pick.

Game/Betting Picks Results

Game: 2-1 (36-18 This Season) (74-34 All-Time)

Spread: 2-1 (32-19-3) (71-33-4)

O/U: 0-3 (26-28) (55-52-1)

Belichick to UNC

In a shocking turn of events, Bill Belichick is now the head coach on UNC. Now that a couple days have passed, along with the initial shock, the decision seems to make more sense.

It looks like the market for Belichick as an NFL head coach was going to be very small. Even the teams that might consider him did not seem willing to let him have the level of control he was looking for and he likely would not have been able to bring in all the people he wanted. UNC will allow him to call all the shots.

He has always loved college football and grew up around the game. UNC is a great academic school that matches with Bill being an intelligent individual.

UNC is the perfect middle ground of being a good program, but not so prestigious that he can’t come in and take over the program without worrying about boosters and an AD looking over his shoulder all the time.

The transfer portal and NIL have made college football much more like the NFL. He will be able to recruit guys other programs don’t value enough and develop them into great players. Football players with dreams of going to the NFL will want to play for him.

All in all, I think he will be very successful. I don’t think he’ll be able to win a national title, but I think he can consistently compete to win the ACC and make the playoffs.

NFL Week 14 Reaction

Green Bay (9-4) @ Detroit Lions (12-1)

Despite so many injuries, Detroit just keeps rolling. They out gained Green Bay by almost 100 yards, ran 31 more plays than them, and converted 4 times more fourth downs than the Packers converted third downs.

Buffalo Bills (10-3) Los Angeles Rams (7-6)

Game of the year. The exact type of shootout you love to see.

Los Angeles Chargers (8-5) Kansas City Chiefs (12-1)

Another instance of late game magic from the Chiefs moves them into prime position to secure the 1 Seed.

Cincinnati Bengals (5-8) Dallas Cowboys (5-8)

The Bengals pull out a win to keep their season alive. Burrow and Chase continue their dominance this year.
