I assume that if any quarter ending score ENDS with BOTH my numbers, I win that quarter? Or if ONE of my numbers is ends on EITHER team's ending score?

To win any qtr you need the Eagles last number in their score to be 2 and the Patriots to be 5 or the Eagles last number to be 3 and the Pats to be 4.

Finally. The Pats lost the super bowl.

It was about time a bird team didn’t score up in the last minute to lose the game

 

[warbirdlover]

So who won the pool?

So who won the pool?

Yeah?

 

[TEA Time]

I won one of the quarters from my own pool...

Weird numbers won this year.

Weird numbers won this year.

Blame the kickers, two missed extra points and a missed FG kind of screwed up the numbers as it lead to missed attempts at 2 point conversion for make up points.

 

[TEA Time]

^ truth. Lotta missed kicks.

Weird factoid about the LA Rams: Prior to giving up a ton of high draft picks for the right to draft Jared Goff, the previous two starting QB’s were Case Keenum and Nick Foles who faced each other in the NFC championship game.

Of course, latest rumor I saw today was than Minnesota is thinking about replacing Keenum with Foles if he is available.

It’s amazing how some coaches can get more out of the same QB than others.

My sophomore year my golf coach tried to change my swing and completely ruined my season. We butted heads all year because of it, and subsequently I didn't even play my junior year. He retired before my senior year and the new coach and I got along great. I qualified for state as an individual that year. So yeah, it is pretty amazing what some coaches can get out of a player, and how much they can derail a player.

......with Foles if he is available

He should be a starter somewhere. Broncos could use a QB.

There's a good chance he'll be opening say starter for the Eagles as Wentz might not be ready by then.

Another fun fact...Foles was drafted by the Eagles during the Andy Reid regime. The guy that scouted him...Doug Pederson.

Yeah, he was the heir apparent until he wasn’t and then got shipped off to the St Louis Rams as Bradford went to Philly. Who, coincidently was later shipped to Minnesota and replaced by Keenum who had also replaced Foles with the Rams.

What a tangled web of jounerymen QB’s.
