Decatur Staleys are old too,ended up being the Chicago Bears in 1922 i think.

The Staleys won 10 games in their first season, all shutouts.

I read where Billy Sullivan posted $25,000 as the starting fee to enter the Boston Patriots into their inaugural season. It was said he didn’t even have the fee, had to sell stock options to raise the money. Today the Patriots are valued at 8.76 Billion dollars.

Eagles lost their first game 56-0 in 1933 to the Giants lol.

Named after the National Recovery Act (NRA) with an eagle symbol on it.

[TunnelKing089]

Oregon +3.5 @ Penn State. I'll take the Ducks and the points until J.Franklin can win a few more big games.

 

[CarlyAnn]

Penn St. can’t beat any top 10 team

Boston College can’t….oh, nevermind

Don't laugh my Panthers destroyed the Falcons last Sunday

 

[Series 6]

Philadelphia Eagles are rolling today

 

[CharlotteNCguy]

Sadly so are the Patriots

 

[Series 6]

Chargers need to wake up. They should be stomping the Giants.

I picked the commanders to beat the Falcons. But as an Eagles fan, I’ll definitely take a Washington loss.
