Also the NFL Sold the NFL Network and the NFL Red zone to ESPN who is now charging $29.99/month on their Unlimited Package just to watch them. The Greed knows no bounds anymore.

     Officiating has been poor at best the past few seasons and it seems that  replay is being used on almost every other play.

NFL Super Bowl LX is Here.. My Pick and Thoughts

 

     Super Bowl LX Sunday is Finally Here...This is what what the Season comes down to as the finally 2 teams battle it out. Te Seattle Seahawks vs the New England Patriots. Cooper the NFL Analyst is Back for His 9th Season Picking Games..

     Hundred of Millions will be watching the Super Bowl many for the game and many for the Commercials which will cost anywhere from 8-10M for a 30 sec spot. Also this is the most expensive Super Bowl to attend with ticket prices ranging from $3500 to $60,000 a seat..

    The NFL once again is screwing over its Fans by now putting certain Games only on Amazon Prime and Peacock and You Tube and 2 games on NetFlix only on Christmas just so the Owners can make more money at the expense of the Fans! Also the NFL Sold the NFL Network and the NFL Red zone to ESPN who is now charging $29.99/month on their Unlimited Package just to watch them. The Greed knows no bounds anymore.

    When will the NFL (NOT our FAULT LEAGUE) address the Bad/Poor Officiating that has costs teams games again... Each year it is getting worse instead of better..... 

    Why did the NFL switch footballs for the Place Kickers allowing them to use a more friendly football to make kicks that are 50 yards or more virtually a guaranteed 3 points?

   What was Jerry Jones thinking in trading Micah Parsons 10 days before the Season Opener? It is looking more and more like Jones is deliberately sabotaging the season to get a chance at a higher draft pick thus screwing over the Cowboys fan base..

    A Huge Shout Out to My Surgeon, Dr. Daniel Sullivan, who is a Great Guy and the Biggest Bills Mafia and Buffalo Bills Fan...

    Cooper has picked the Super Bowl Champion the last 3 years in a row.

    Here are Super Bowl Sunday Questions:

  • The Head Coaching Carousel is complete...
  • Did the Steelers hit a HR by hiring Mike McCarthy as their next Head Coach/
  • The Giants wasting no time in hiring ex Ravens Coach John Harbaugh to try and right the ship.  
  • Will Journeyman QB Sam Darnold or 2nd year QB Drake Maye win their first Super Bowl?
  • Will this game end up being a shootout or a defensive struggle?
  • Are we going to see another last second win or loss today?
  • Who will be able to run the ball?
  • Which Teams WR will stand out?  
  • Can the Patriots continue their Cinderella run? 
  • Will Bad NFL Officiating decide the games? 

   Cooper has been 11-1 so far in the Playoffs after going 224-47-1 in the Regular Season.. We enjoyed picking games with Everyone once again. Enjoy the Super Bowl and See you next season.!!!  Cooper says are ready for some Football.....  twitter; @CupofJoeintheD2   email; cupofjoeinthed@gmail.com    www.cupofjoeinthed.blogspot.com

    NFL Championship Sunday is Here...The NFC and AFC Championship Games are today... Cooper the NFL Analyst is Back for His 9th Season Picking Games! The Championship Games pit the New England Patriots at the Denver Broncos at the Seattle Seahawks hosting the Los Angeles Rams.

    The Winners face off in Super Bowl LX at Levi's Stadium in Santa Clara on Sunday, February 8th. Home of the San Francisco 49ers. 

     The NFL once again is screwing over its Fans by now putting certain Games only on Amazon Prime and Peacock and You Tube and 2 games on NetFlix only on Christmas just so the Owners can make more money at the expense of the Fans! Also the NFL Sold the NFL Network and the NFL Red zone to ESPN who is now charging $29.99/month on their Unlimited Package just to watch them. The Greed knows no bounds anymore.

    When will the NFL (NOT our FAULT LEAGUE) address the Bad/Poor Officiating that has costs teams games again... Each year it is getting worse instead of better..... 

    Why did the NFL switch footballs for the Place Kickers allowing them to use a more friendly football to make kicks that are 50 yards or more virtually a guaranteed 3 points?

   What was Jerry Jones thinking in trading Micah Parsons 10 days before the Season Opener? It is looking more and more like Jones is deliberately sabotaging the season to get a chance at a higher draft pick thus screwing over the Cowboys fan base..

    A Huge Shout Out to My Surgeon, Dr. Daniel Sullivan, who is a Great Guy and the Biggest Bills Mafia and Buffalo Bills Fan...

    Cooper has picked the Super Bowl Champion the last 3 years in a row.

    Biggest Questions of these Championship Games are: 

 - Can the Broncos win with backup QB Jarrett Stidham and their stout defense?

-  Will the Rams Defense show up and play like they did earlier this year?

    Here are this NFL Championship Sunday Questions:

  • The Head Coaching Carousel is slowing filling in.
  • Did the Steelers hit a HR by hiring Mike McCarthy as their next Head Coach/
  • The Giants wasting no time in hiring ex Ravens Coach John Harbaugh to try and right the ship.  
  • Which Sam Darnold will show up today? I see Ghosts or no Ghosts..
  • How many points will the LA Ram and QB Stafford have to put up today? 
  • Can the Seahawks Defense continue their stellar play?
  • Whose defense will standout in Denver today? Will it be the Broncos or Patriots?
  • Can Jarrett Stidham pull of another Nick Foles in today's game? 
  • Will the Broncos be able to run on New England?
  • Can the Patriots continue their Cinderella run? 
  • Will Bad NFL Officiating decide the games? 

   Cooper has been 9-1 so far in the Playoffs after going 224-47-1 in the Regular Season.. Enjoy the NFL Championship Games!!!  Cooper says are ready for some Football.....  twitter; @CupofJoeintheD2   email; cupofjoeinthed@gmail.com    www.cupofjoeinthed.blogspot.com

NFL Week 16 Picks by Cooper the Analyst and Cup of Joe in the D

 

     Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to Everyone... It is Week 16 of the NFL Season. Cooper the NFL Analyst is Back for His 9th Season Picking Games! The NFL opened Week 16 of the season on Christmas Day with 3 games as we seem the Cowboys beat the Commanders, the Vikings upset the Lions and the Broncos down the Chiefs. 

      My Detroit Lions played their most lethargic uninspired game in the Dan Campbell era as their were beaten by the Vikings who were using a 3rd string QB. The Lions have many areas that need to be addressed this off season including bringing in a top young OC to be the play caller. Dan Campbell is a top HC but he is a lousy play caller. 

     Some of the best games in Week 16 games will be: HOU at LAC, JAX at IND, SEA at CAR, PHI at BUF, CHI at SF, 

     The NFL once again is screwing over its Fans by now putting certain Games only on Amazon Prime and Peacock and You Tube and 2 games on NetFlix only on Christmas just so the Owners can make more money at the expense of the Fans! Also the NFL Sold the NFL Network and the NFL Red zone to ESPN who is now charging $29.99/month on their Unlimited Package just to watch them. The Greed knows no bounds anymore.

    When will the NFL (NOT our FAULT LEAGUE) address the Bad/Poor Officiating that has costs teams games again... Each year it is getting worse instead of better.....
