According to reports from multiple outlets, the NFL will add two more teams to the playoffs. That means only one team gets a by per conference. They will also add a 17th game to the regular season, and remove one game from the preseason.

Tom Dempsey who kicked a then-NFL record 63 yard field goal at the old Tulane Stadium in November 1970 has passed away due to COVID-19.

 

This record stood for 43 years until it was broken in 2013 at the high altitude in Denver by Matt Prater. Three other kickers have equalled Dempsey's mark during that span but they all used the more favorable soccer kick approach.

 

Dempsey was born without fingers on his right hand and toes on his right foot.

 

This was just about the only positive thing that happened to the New Orleans Saints in the 70s as they were a horribly bad franchise at the time.

Rob Gronkowski is back! He has un-retired to join Tampa Bay Buccaneers (who else?) and his old buddy Tom Brady.

 

Tampa still had to trade 4th & 7th round picks for his rights owned by the Patriots since his last contract will only expire at the end of 2020.

NFL Draft starts in less than 8 hours! :cheer:

 

#1 pick is as good as sealed, QB Joe Burrow to Bengals. Bigger mystery is whether Dolphins & Chargers pass on Tua Tagovailoa. If he slides beyond #6 that will be a major storyline during the night.

 

Let's hope Ryan Pace's wife doesn't turn the vacuum on like few days ago. The Bears look incompetent enough without the additional laughs.
