Thursday’s Den: NFL notes, thoughts with the season starting tonite…….​

How last 20 defending Super Bowl champs did in Week 1 the next season; 15 of the last 16 opened at home:
2003: Buccaneers (+3) W17-0 @ Philadelphia
2004: Patriots (-3) W27-24 vs Indianapolis
2005: Patriots (-7.5) W30-20 vs Oakland
2006: Steelers (-1) W28-17 vs Miami
2007: Colts (-5.5) W41-10 vs New Orleans
2008: Giants (-4.5) W16-7 vs Washington
2009: Steelers (-6.5) W13-10 vs Tennessee
2010: Saints (-5) W14-9 vs Minnesota
2011: Packers (-5) W42-34 vs New Orleans
2012: Giants (-5) L17-24 vs Dallas
2013: Ravens (+7.5) L27-49 @ Denver
2014: Seahawks (-5.5) W36-16 vs Green Bay
2015: Patriots (-7) W28-21 vs Pittsburgh
2016: Broncos (+3) W21-20 vs Carolina
2017: Patriots (-8) L27-42 vs Kansas City
2018: Eagles (-1) W18-12 vs Atlanta
2019: Patriots (-5.5) W33-3 vs Pittsburgh
2020: Chiefs (-9) W34-20 vs Houston
2021: Buccaneers (-8) W31-29 vs Dallas
2022: Rams (+2.5) L10-31 vs Buffalo
2023: Chiefs (-4.5) L20-21 vs Detroit
(11-7-3 ATS, 0-3 ATS last three years)

— 17 of the 32 offensive coordinators are in new jobs this season; makes it difficult to handicap Week 1, not much idea what to expect.

— Steelers brought in Russell Wilson AND Justin Fields this year, as they totally re-made their QB room. Wilson is 124-79-1 with a Super Bowl ring, but he was 17-27 the last three years and he will be 36 years old in November.
Fields is 10-28 as an NFL starter, heading towards suspect more than prospect. Will they use him in goal line/short yardage situations?

— Pittsburgh OC Arthur Smith was the Falcons’ head coach the last three years, going 7-10 all three seasons, so they fired him; Steelers open up in Atlanta Sunday.
Think that game is a little personal for Smith?

— Deshaun Watson has already gone thru two years of his guaranteed, five-year $46M/year contract, but he’s only played in 12 of 34 games for the Browns so far. Cleveland went 11-6 last year, with four different QB’s earning a win- that isn’t sustainable- they need Watson to play like a QB who deserves $46M a year.

— Eagles started 10-1 last year, then lost six of their last seven games, then changed both of their coordinators— it came out that QB Jalen Hurts and coach Nick Sirianni aren’t exactly the best of buddies, which puts the focus on new OC Kellen Moore, who spent eight of the last nine years with division rival Dallas.
This is a franchise that let Andy Reid/Doug Peterson walk; is Sirianni on thin ice?

— Aaron Donald retired; when a team loses one of the best defensive players ever, it puts their defense in question, especially with a new defensive coordinator (Chris Shula).

— Famous birthdays, September 5th:
William Devane, 85
Billy Kilmer, 85
Michael Keaton, 73
Willie Gault, 64
Dennis Scott, 56
Austin Corbett, 29
Jarren Duran, 28
Steven Kwan, 27
Mac Jones, 26

— Jets’ QB Aaron Rodgers tore his achilles on the 4th play last season; his health is obviously a big key as the Jets try to make the playoffs for the first time since 2010. Jets have five prime-time games and a Europe game in their first nine contests; someone in the league office thinks Gang Green is a contender.

— Chargers QB Justin Herbert battled a plantar fascia injury all summer; he was in a walking boot for two weeks. Chargers recently traded for Taylor Heinicke to back up Herbert; Heinicke is 13-16-1 as an NFL starter.

— Last five years, Buffalo Bills are 58-24 in regular season, only 5-5 in playoff games; Bills have problems with the salary cap these days, the way a lot of contending teams do, so their roster may be a little thinner this season than it has been.

— It is difficult for me to process that Bill Belichick, Pete Carroll are no longer NFL coaches; did they suddenly become incompetent? Hopefully Carroll will surface on TV somewhere; with his enthusiasm, he’d be a great teacher on TV.
Belichick seems like he is kind of boring; hopefully I’ll be wrong about that, but we’ll see.

— Should rookie QB’s start right away? Patrick Mahomes didn’t start until the last game of his rookie year; watching for a while can be a help.
Bears/Commanders are going with rookie QB’s right away; we’ll see how that works out.

— How last 20 Super Bowl losers did in Week 1 the following season:
2003: Raiders (+3) L20-25 @ Tennessee
2004: Panthers (-3) L14-24 vs Green Bay
2005: Eagles (-1) L10-14 @ Atlanta
2006: Seahawks (-6) W9-6 @ Detroit
2007: Bears (+7) L3-19 @ San Diego
2008: Patriots (-16) W17-10 vs Kansas City
2009: Cardinals (-5) L16-20 vs San Francisco
2010: Colts (-1.5) L24-34 @ Houston
2011: Steelers (+1) L7-35 @ Baltimore
2012: Patriots (-5) W34-13 @ Tennessee
2013: 49ers (-5) W34-28 vs Green Bay
2014: Broncos (-7.5) W31-24 vs Indianapolis
2015: Seahawks (-3.5) L31-34 OT @ Rams
2016: Panthers (-3) L20-21 @ Denver
2017: Falcons (-6.5) W23-17 @ Chicago

Quote of the Day
“Being perfect is not about that scoreboard out there. It’s not about winning. It’s about you and your relationship with yourself, your family and your friends. Being perfect is about being able to look your friends in the eye and know that you didn’t let them down because you told them the truth…….”
Billy Bob Thornton, Friday Night Lights

Friday’s quiz
In the movie Invincible, the Eagles beat the Giants in Week 2 of the 1976 season; who played QB for the Giants in that game?

Thursday’s quiz
Randy Johnson threw the first no-hitter in Arizona Diamondbacks’ history.

Wednesday’s quiz
In the movie Someone to Watch Over Me, Tom Berenger is a New York City cop assigned to protect a woman who witnessed a murder. Mimi Rogers played the witness.

************************************************************

Friday’s Den: Random stuff, with the weekend here…….

— Chiefs 27, Ravens 20
Ravens were on 10-yard line at end of game, failed to score.
QB Jackson threw for 273 yards, ran for 122 more.
Ravens’ first drive: 11 plays, 70 yards. TD drive took 6:46
Baltimore had only one other TD on their last nine drives.

KC won despite being minus-2 in turnovers, and outgained, 452-353
Mahomes threw for 291 yards; WR Rice caught seven passes for 103 yards; Last 8 years, Chiefs are 6-2 ATS in Week 1.
Last 22 years, defending Super Bowl champ is 12-7-3 ATS in Week 1 the next year.

— Chiefs have now won six of their last seven games against Baltimore.

— With the loss Thursday, Ravens’ QB Lamar Jackson drops to 13-3 ATS as an NFL underdog.

— Most career rushing yards by a quarterback:
6,109- Michael Vick
5,628- Cam Newton
5,380- Lamar Jackson
5,307- Russell Wilson

— NFL is heading towards having a 20-week (18-game) regular season with two byes for each team, one that will start on Labor Day weekend, with the Super Bowl on Presidents Day weekend. Should happen when the next TV contract comes up.

— Movie of the Day: Invincible (2006)- Based on the true story of Vince Papale, a 30-year-old bartender from Philadelphia who overcame long odds to play for the NFL’s Eagles in 1976.

Mark Wahlberg plays Papale, Greg Kinnear plays Dick Vermeil; Elizabeth Banks, Michael Nouri and Michael Rispoli are also in this movie.

Coach Vermeil is a stickler for details; in the locker room scenes where the players are getting ready for the games, the real names/numbers are on their jerseys.

These days, Vince Papale’s son is a wide receiver in the UFL.

This is a very good movie, especially if you like football.

— Back in 1976, teams played six freakin’ exhibition games before the season started; now they only play three.

— The first 2-point conversion in the NFL happened 30 years ago, in 1994, when Cleveland P/QB Tom Tupa scored on a fake PAT for 2 points, against the Bengals. Clever play.

Coach of the Cleveland Browns that day was Bill Belichick.

— Famous birthdays, September 6th:
Ron Boone, 78
Jane Curtin, 77
Kevin Willis, 62

Idris Elba, 52
Eric Zeier, 52
Jerry Blevins, 41

Mitch Moreland, 39
John Wall, 34
Mark Andrews, 29

— Phillies DH Kyle Schwarber had a game this week where he went 5-6 with three home runs and a double. He had six RBI and the game-winning home run, one of the best games ever by any hitter in the big leagues.

Who had the best game ever?

May 23, 2002, playing for the Dodgers in Milwaukee, RF Shawn Green went 6-6, with four home runs and 7 RBI. 19 total bases in one game is still a record today; tough one to beat.

— Giants’ TV broadcaster Duane Kuiper was a good ballplayer, lasted 12 years in the major leagues, batted 3,754 times, but he only hit one home run in all those at-bats.

August 29, 1977, Kuiper hit only big league home run, off the White Sox’ Steve Stone.

47 years later, Kuiper and Stone are both still broadcasting on TV, Kuiper for the Giants, Stone for the White Sox.

— San Francisco Giants signed 3B Matt Chapman to a 6-year, $151M contract extension; he is 31 years old, but he’s been a durable player who is an excellent fielder and has a .778 OPS this year.

— Tigers 4, Padres 3
Trailing 3-0, Parker Meadows hit a dramatic grand slam with two outs in the 9th inning.
Last time a Detroit player hit a go-ahead grand slam with two strikes and two outs in the 9th inning was Alan Trammell, way back in 1988.

Saturday’s Den: Change is in the air…….

— Change is in the air; after today, we won’t be posting daily baseball matchups anymore; I’ve been doing this for 23 years. Do the math; I’ve spent a ridiculous amount of time posting stuff every day for the last 23 summers. Time to cut back a little.

Rest of this blog should stay the same; home page will probably be better now— I’ll post lot of baseball stuff here. Will still post football info like we have been.
