49ers - Falcons?

Steelers - Jaguars?

Meh. personally, i dont hate the cowboys like I did as a kid when they were kicking ass and taking names in the 90's.

I think mostly now it's because it's just the Cowboys, if you don't root for them you root against them and vice versa.

Seahawks vs Raiders
Seahawks vs Packers

Yeah, Seahawks-Packers is alive. Not sure about Seahawks-Raiders. Since leaving the AFC West, there have been no playoff matchups, of course, and I can't think of a memorable regular season matchup.

Is Ravens-Colts a thing because of the Colts leaving Baltimore? Then again, I'm struggling to think of memorable games between the two teams, which is the standard that I've been going by so far in this thread.

49ers - Falcons?

Steelers - Jaguars?

Yeah, I guess with Shanahan as the Niners coach, it is something right now, especially with the Falcons-Niners game happening this past season.

Greatest Rust Belt Rivalry for sure.

The Great Lakes Classic.


Played every year, in the preseason.


There used to be a trophy. Don't know what happened with that. Or why it ever was a thing. It was the preseason.

I learn something new every day. This article says it was played between 2002 to 2014. When you mentioned it, I was imagining that it was from long, long ago.

What should the Browns do with the Great Lakes Classic trophy?

Pretty sure they still play every preseason. Just no CFBesque trophy at stake.

 

[Fountain City Blues]

This is going to sound odd

Chiefs-Texans?

Wow! I thought you guys were joking, but this really is an intense rivalry. I mean at least people have put work into this.

We did once fight a "War" against each other.


The rivalry is real.

[SteelersPride]

Steelers-Cowboys
Patriots-Giants
Seahawks-entire AFC West (?)
Giants-Jets
Manning vs. Brady at one point
Patriots-everyone, but especially the Ravens, Steelers and possibly Chiefs

i disagree, Pittsburgh fans think the patriots are a rival. The patriots laugh at us. They own us, You have to have some good games, and win once in a while to be a rival.

Seahawks vs Raiders
Seahawks vs Packers

really?




How bout chiefs-texans

 

[SteelersPride]

alot of these ran their course.........like the pats colts from 2000-like 2014

 

[Robotech]

Yup.

Man, you are a fountain of knowledge. I was a history major in college and I never knew that.

 

[SeattleCoug]

Seahawks vs Raiders
Seahawks vs Packers

These two came to mind for me as well. Not sure the Raiders has much to it anymore but I think the Packers one is still good

I think Seahawks-Panthers was pretty decent for a while because it seemed like those two played almost every year in Carolina, but I think with Cam probably leaving that one is probably done.
