Not crazy at all. They beat a 12-4 Patriots team and the following week beat a 14-2 Ravens team that everybody had pegged going to the super bowl. The Titans are playing with house money. All the pressure is on Andy Reid and the Chiefs. Interesting sidenote: somebody was telling me the other day that one of the members of the defense has a wife who is a chef and she cooks vegan food for the entire defense. Wonder if their diet has anything to do with them playing out of their minds. .no. A vegan diet wont make you play great defense. No diet will.

Saquon could be nearly as powerful as DH if he didn't dance around so much. I get he wants to be like Barry Sanders not Emmitt Smith but I hope the next coach really focuses on north/south running with him next season. With his quads he could really kill defenses in the second half and cause lots of missed tackles.

Call me crazy but I think Tennessee is beating KC and going to the super bowl to face the Packers. Not crazy at all. They beat a 12-4 Patriots team and the following week beat a 14-2 Ravens team that everybody had pegged going to the super bowl. The Titans are playing with house money. All the pressure is on Andy Reid and the Chiefs. and physically mauled both teams on the road

and physically mauled both teams on the road Titans have to win the T.O.P. by a lot to pull another upset because they will be facing the most dangerous offense in the NFL. They've proven to be both physical and flexible. I don't doubt they are capable. Put Kelce on lockdown (easier said...), and force Mahomes to beat you with his arm (also easier...).

Precisely. I'm rooting for the Titans to pull it off but i think KC wins.

Personally I think it's the 49ers Super Bowl to loose They have the most balanced team on both sides of the ball Their offense incapable of playing any style,from a street fight physically slug fest to a bombs away shoot out,they have the weapons to play both and a playmaker that has the feel to change and morph on the fly Most importantly they have one of tried and true assets that win championships,a.dominating D line and front 7 that imposes their will on the offense,especially since Dee.Ford came back. None of the other 3 teams can match this

I figured that's what you meant.
From what I have found, Belichick did not work with Parcells prior to Parcells becoming HC of the NYG.
He was hired by Ray Perkins in 1979. Parcells became HC in 1983 and retained Belichick.
"In 1979, Belichick began a 12-year stint with the New York Giants alongside head coach Ray Perkins as a defensive assistant and special teams coach. He added linebackers coaching to his duties in 1980 and was named defensive coordinator in 1985 under head coach Bill Parcells, who had replaced Perkins in 1983. "
Bill P was Ray Perkins DC on the same staff. You are correct. My bad.
Bill Parcells As coach:
Hastings (1964) Linebackers Wichita State (1965) Linebackers Army (1966–1967) Linebackers Army (1968–1969) Defensive coordinator Florida State (1970–1972) Linebackers Vanderbilt (1973–1974) Linebackers Texas Tech (1975–1977) Linebackers Air Force Academy (1978) Head coach New York Giants (1979) Linebackers coach New England Patriots (1980) Linebackers coach New York Giants (1981–1982) Defensive coordinator / Linebackers New York Giants (1983–1990) Head coach New England Patriots (1993–1996) Head coach New York Jets (1997–1999) Head coach Dallas Cowboys (2003–2006) Head coach

I had my doubts, but now I'm confident. Thanks Red.
