GB seems to not have the depth and gets swamped by injuries. They are the best team first week of October and then a patchwork by the time the playoffs show up.

all these guys like Ted Thompson and McCarthy get their fuckin heads gassed up and think they are such savvy dudes and it's just like y'all stumbled on to 2 hall of fame qbs in a row (who also until now were barely ever hurt) and that covers up for all kinds of shit

the broncos did not fire their bad head coach but they did fire all the assistants left over from when they were good lol

Thompson and Capers definitely deserve credit for their Super Bowl year - Thompson hit on a number of undrafted free agents that had to take the place of injured starters, and Capers' defense was great. In retrospect it's kind of obvious that Ted just got lucky one year, and the defense benefitted greatly from both statistical variance (I think they led the league turnover margin) and the presence of a surprisingly resurgent Charles Woodson. You also had Matthews and Raji playing at a level they wouldn't hit the rest of their careers. Their defense fell apart the very next year, which tends not to matter when you're averaging 35 points a game, but they definitely paid the price later on...

Bengals signed head coach Marvin Lewis to a two-year contract through the 2019 season.

Today in 1993, the Houston Oilers suffer their biggest choke, blowing a 35-3 lead at the half to the Buffalo Bills.
