Yeah I’m not just watching, I’m turning up for it, my wife and kids are gonna hate me, idgaf, and I won’t say I’m a rams or bills fan for the night but I will say that I’m gonna be far too invested in this game, just because it’s real football
Barring an injury bug like what we suffered last year or the Niners in 2020, there's no reason for the Bills to not win the division. And there isn't a single NFC team that I hate (and yes, that includes the Cowboys). NFL and CFB games with zero rooting interest are the best fr fr.

I do love me a great game where I have no rooting interest. Last year might have been the most entertaining postseason Ive ever seen. The Tua comeback championship was probably the single most entertaining football game I’ve ever seen.

Much less stress for sure, makes watching the game much more enjoyable
 
Am i biased for saying id take a prime suggs over von miller and kahlil mack? Honestly, over every edge rusher today. dude was just elite at everything you could ask a rusher to do

I think there's a clear cut case to be made that prime Suggs is better than those two, yes. Suggs, as you said, was elite for the position at every single aspect of it. Could rush the passer, play the run, and cover TEs with the best of the best

Suggs had far more longevity but in their primes I think both are probably better. Sizzle in 2011 can MAYBE rival 2015 Miller or 2018 Mack, but that’s a hard maybe and it’s based entirely on him coming up with a million super timely turnovers that year

Better I'm not sure, but equally good and better sack artists, perhaps. But, again you have to look at what Sugg's role was in our D. It wasn't just getting after the QB snap after snap. Who knows under the schemes that Miller and Mack excelled in, how good Suggs may have been, no?

True but I think von Miller was always capable of being an elite all around edge LB, while I don’t believe Suggs had the same kinda juice to be the pure pass rusher that von or Mack was

id take sizzle over mack no doubt - there was a time when i thought mack was going to become that superstar and while he became elite he never quite took over games the way other stars have

think there's a very good case that von miller's one of the best ever off the edge and im not sure i can take suggs over that - suggs is a ravens icon, von miller might be an NFL icon

Yeah Mack had a fast plateau and it’s awful how the raiders spent that kings ransom. EDC would’ve had 2 first rounders for the next decade off the back of that trade
