NFL

AFC North

Bengals: You could eat a tiger, but odds are it eats you first

Browns: Kind of a tricky one. You can't eat the concept of the color brown. You can however eat a brown steamer (see: Eagles Superbowl parade). The other option is eating the corpse of Paul Brown which....yeah not touching that

Ravens: It's a bird, a tiny one at that. You could eat a raven if you are to separate it from its flock

Steelers: Steel is not edible

AFC East

Bills: I'm not exactly sure what I would be eating here. A buffalo? Sure you could eat it and I'm sure it's common practice in some places. Actual Buffalo Bill? He would probably skin you alive before you even tried

Dolphins: Japan does it

Jets: You can't eat a plane

Patriots: Again a bit confused as to what would be eaten here. I assume it's a civil war soldier in which case i imagine you could, provided it doesn't kill you first (it will)

AFC South

Colts; Horseshoes are not edible. Horses however are

Jaguars: You could try but it will probably rip off your face

Titans: You can't eat Greek mythological creatures. In fact you are to follow Greek mythology a specific one will eat you instead

Texans: Please don't eat Hank Hill

AFC West

Broncos: You can eat a horse

Chargers: You would get electrocuted to your death instantly

Chiefs: Someone in the comments of the original thread explained how this is possible but I'm not touching it

Raiders: Technically you could eat a pirate and I'm sure it has happened between them, but odds are the pirate stabs and robs you first. Not edible

NFC North

Bears: Technically edible but it would maul you at first sight if you tried

Lions: Same as Jaguars/Bengals, unless you find it asleep. Then it's fair game

Packers: It's cheese. You can eat cheese, you should eat cheese, it's delicious (BRB going to Culver's)

Vikings: With how big they are they must be tasty. On the other hand they would kill you six times over before you even had a chance

NFC East

Commanders: Thank God they changed their name. You could eat an army commander but the chances you succeed are very slim

Cowboys: Provided it doesn't gun you down first, sure

Eagles: A bit treasonous given its America's mascot but technically edible

Giants: Too big to eat. Not edible

NFC South

Buccaneers: See Raiders

Falcons: You can eat this bird withoit committing treason, it probably tastes like chicken

Panthers: You can in the strict sense of the word. Whether or not you make it alive of a fight to capture it in order to eat is a different conversation

Saints: Mmmhh....Sacrilegious

NFC West

49ers: I have no idea what I would be eating. Assuming it's the rocks from gold mines then no. Rocks are not edible, I'm not making that mistake again

Cardinals: We already eat birds bigger than this. Definitely edible

Rams: People already eat their meat, highly edible

Seahawks: A Seahawk is not a real creature per se but you can definitely eat a hawk living by the sea side

I know there’s going to be a lot of Matt Millen, but let’s try to think of someone else. He also drafted a generational WR which makes me think he’s insanely overhated especially since other dudes like Dave Gettleman can never hit on a draft pick if his life depended on it

Only 6 active NFL QBs have finished a season as the NFL leader in Passer Rating.

Only 1 man appears on both lists.

Tua Tagovailoa.

Just a few off the top of my head:

1. What if Lamar Hunt was granted a NFL expansion team in 1960? Biggest affect is no AFL, and from there no Super Bowl. Also this butterflys away the Chiefs and Cowboys from existence, and with that a combined 9 title winning teams.

2. What if the Vikings won Super Bowl XXII? First off, no Herschel Walker trade. No Dallas Dynasty, and likely the Cowboys aren’t the media darlings they are today, instead being regarded in a similar vein as the Raiders. That moniker may be held by the 49ers instead, who may have as many as 7 rings by 1994.

3. What if the Chiefs never hired Andy Reid? , If Reid doesn’t go to the Chiefs, where does he go? Who ends up as the team of the 2020s?

Phillip Rivers ranks 2nd in most consecutive starts for a QB in NFL history with 252. He would also play through severe injuries. In the 2007 AFC Championship, he played on a torn ACL while facing the undefeated Patriots and given the circumstances, had a damn good game. He suffered a Lisfranc injury at the end of the 2006 regular season, which he played through in the playoffs. Played the 2014 season with a bulging disc in his back. He most likely played with even more moderate to severe injuries but Rivers was famously hush-hush about his injuries.

Eli Manning ranks 3rd in most consecutive starts for a QB in NFL history with 222, but would be even more if it wasn’t for Ben McAdoo (obligatory fuck McAdoo). In 2007 Manning suffered a contusion of the AC joint, but played through it. In 2009, Manning was diagnosed with plantar fasciitis but played through it. However for the most part, Manning was able to evade any serious injuries and was just an extremely reliable and healthy quarterback throughout his whole career.

Ben Roethlisberger, while not charting on the most consecutive starts for a NFL QB list, constantly played through injuries in his career. (Sorry these dates are going to be all over the place), In 2016 Big Ben suffered a knee meniscus tear, but missed just 1 game following surgery. In 2010 he suffered a pedal foot fracture but played the following week and didn’t miss any game time. In 2010 he suffered a head nose fracture but didn’t miss a snap. In 2011 he suffered a pedal foot sprain but played through it. In 2011 he suffered a hand thumb fracture but didn’t miss a snap. In 2013 he suffered a hand finger dislocation but continued playing. In 2016 he had an A/C sprain with torn ligaments in his throwing shoulder, but he missed 0 games. In 2018 he suffered a chest rib fracture but missed no games. In 2021 he suffered an inguinal hip strain but played through it. (There are even more injuries he’s played through, this is just some of them)

This QB class produced three franchise QBs that played with their teams well over a decade but it also brought into the league three QBs that were historically dependable and would play through moderate to severe injuries on a regular basis. Just something I noticed that was rather unique and another tidbit regarding this historic class.

Basically the 1984 and 2003 equivalent of the NBA draft

Like buying the current European League?
