2025-2026 NFL Season Thread

People complain about how often the Cowboys are on TV, but even when they're down they still are TV's biggest draw:

Here's a look at the three highest-rated regular season games of the 2015 season.

1. Panthers at Cowboys (Thanksgiving Day) -- 32.5M (CBS)
2. Seahawks at Cowboys (Nov. 1, 2015) -- 29.4M (Fox)
3. Cowboys at Packers (Dec. 13, 2015) -- 28.9M (Fox)

Totally, they look SO much better than the dark blue/gold unis.

Well I mean, just look at his haircut. I'd abuse him too if I saw him.

I had to do a search because I've never seen him. You're right....who has that much money and wears that haircut on purpose?

I sure hope so. They never should have stopped having those royal blue and yellow uniforms. They are sharp!

Davis is an incredibly stingy owner that flies Southwest and drives a 1997 van but according to an ESPN article Davis travels 500 miles to Palm Desert each time he needs a haircut because he likes the barber.

Browns hiring Hue Jackson

Somewhat surprising. It sounded like he had his pick of jobs. Not all vacancies were available to him, but a fair share. Seems like Cleveland has little to offer (no offense Browns fans). I wish him luck. That town deserves a good football team.

[West E]

I actually liked Hue as a coach. I didnt like him trading two 1st rounders for Carson Palmer when we didnt have a team to surround him with.

Former NCAA football great and NFL draft bust Lawrence Phillips was found dead in his prison cell at 40. He was serving a 31 year prison sentence for many felonies. Suicide is believed to be the cause. I'd say something nice about the guy if there were any such thing, but he always always an awful person. Back in his college days he beat the crap out of a woman and dragged her by the hair down a flight of stairs.

He was also potentially facing the death penalty for killing his cellmate and there's little doubt he was going to spend the rest of his life in prison.

If Phillips played today he would have been booted off Nebraska and would have fallen until at least the second round of the draft. Instead he was just suspended and was the star player for Nebraska's national championship team, and was picked #6 in the draft, ahead of players like Eddie George, Marvin Harrison, and Ray Lewis. He's definitely one of the all-time busts in NFL history, lasting less than 2 years in St. Louis and brief stints with Miami and San Francisco. His San Francisco stint is most notable for him missing a block that led to Steve Young getting sacked and suffering a career-ending concussion.

Come to think of it I'm almost positive the woman whom Phillips assaulted that I mentioned in the above post was actually Scott Frost's girlfriend at the time of the incident. Scott Frost was the star QB at Nebraska and was recently named head coach of the UCF football team.

Yeah, she was Phillips ex-girlfriend and Phillips barged in to Frost's apartment and dragged her down the stairs. At the time Frost was a backup QB but would become a star after Tommie Frazier graduated.

Antonio Cromartie's wife is pregnant with twins. He already has 10 kids. The guy even had a vasectomy and still manages to produce more children.

I'm at a loss for words.

I don't see how this guy doesn't end up bankrupt immediately after retirement (maybe even sooner) with all those children to support. He's already had to ask the Jets for salary advances in the past to cover child support payments.

Travis Henry had 12 kids from 12 different women. I think he may still be in prison for cocaine trafficking.

Rivers is gonna have 10+ kids when all is said and done, but that's because he's against birth control.

Henry and Cromartie were just too careless. Condom, pill, pull out, etc. I don't understand how you reach that many kids from that different women though. I feel like after you slipped a few through the cracks with multiple women, you'd realize you need to change your methods.

The Los Angeles Rams were/have been my favorite NFL team since my childhood in the 60's/70s! I would love to see them go back to these home/visitors uniforms!!
