That's Dr. Title, thank you!
It's not over until the season starts without him on a roster. And maybe not even then.
Here's one thing that annoys me about the NFL: the fact that the season spans two calendar years but is only referred to by the first one; i.e., this is the 2022 season instead of the 2022-23 season. I think that leads to problems with how we refer to things; if you mention the Pats' title in '04 are you referring to the '04 Super Bowl win against the Panthers or the '04 season that ended in '05 with a Super Bowl against the Eagles? The NBA and NHL don't really have that problem; if you refer to the Warriors' title in '17 people know you mean the '16-17 season and not '17-18.

A consequence of the NFL's calendar putting the vast majority of its games in the previous year but its more high-stakes playoff games in the following year. Unless they change their schedule, it's not possible to avoid this situation except by using an entirely different metric — it's why the Super Bowl is designated by what edition it is instead of what year (in your case, XXXVIII for the '03 Pats' 32-29 win over the Panthers held in Feb '04 and the one where Janet Jackson had a Wardrobe Malfunction; XXXIX for the '04 Pats beating the Eagles 24-21 in Feb '05).

The Bowl is in a few more hours. How are the odds looking at this point?

The game opened up as a Pick 'Em two weeks ago, now it's Eagles -1 1/2.

This was one hell of a game, fitting for both of the teams playing this time. The Chiefs won against the Eagles, 38-35, with a field goal in the last 11 seconds of the game.
It's been 3000 years…
So Trump declared the Rihanna half time show as the worst one ever. It can't be that by definition, because even if you didn't like the music, the floating platforms were really cool, and the dancer choreography was well-done.
But we all know why he said that. Because she doesn't like Trump. What a petty, insecure man (not like it's something we didn't already know, but it's yet another reminder).

Go Chiefs!
Watching those QB Sneaks, though, made me wonder how long it'll be before someone gets REALLY hurt on one of those and the NFL makes an Obvious Rule Patch on the pushing the QB in.

Oh boy, new NFL season! I was kinda wary when the Jets repeated history by trading for an aging but soon-to-be-Hall-of-Fame Packers quarterback...again...but when it was pointed out that the Jets last year already had a good defense and good rookie weapons on offense and that really all that was needed is a quarterback to take it over the top, I feel hope again for the first time since 2009 and 10!

Four snaps. Four. Goddamn. SNAPS.

Miami beat Denver 70-20. If you think 70 points is a lot, you'd be right; only four teams have scored at least 70 points in an NFL game, with the last time it happened being in 1966.
Speaking of which, I think the Useful Notes pages for the major sports should have memorable games and moments for those sports.
In their 13th try the Jets just beat the Eagles for the first time. At least the Eagles can take solace in the fact that they're 12-0 all-time against Houston teams(6-0 each against the Oilers and Texans).
The Lions just won a playoff game.
Am I a weirdo?

Good game Packers fans, but you forgot the Law, that is the Greenlaw.
I wonder if the Bills would've lost the '91 Super Bowl even if Norwood made the kick.
The kick was made with 8 seconds left. The most chance the Giants would have had if Norwood made the kick was a kick return touchdown — no time for anything else.
Right, I was just joking about how often they find a way to lose.
...ah.
Like even if Norwood had made that kick, the kickoff would have gone out of bounds then they lose on a Hail Mary?
They've lost a playoff game on a kickoff return before(although that was after that Super Bowl).
Something I wanted bad for postseason had actually happened. Chiefs-Ravens Championship matchup!
