    That's an incredible 4 second play to pick up 9 yards, I don't think they make the winning FG without that.

    I loved the commentary saying “no good” and then be suprised by the refs putting their hands up haha

    So are the Chargers playing that bad or are the Ravens playing that good?

    Because so far I'm leaning the latter just seeing the highlights.

    I love the game, but I am sick of the bs from the commissioner and other NFL administrators.
    How many owners do you think are implicated in the emails?

    I'm gonna guess at least 25% of them.

    Given the average age of a NFL owner. That is a safe bet.

Though the broadcasters are giving him too much credit for things like drops. Some of those drops are on him for throwing it too short or while on the run so it has a weird angle, which he does a lot.
    Miami's defense last year was "good" because it had an unreasonably high number of turnovers, which wasn't sustainable in any way. In week 17, when we had locked up the #2 seed and couldn't get the #1, against a Miami who only needed to win to get in, our starters played one half, and then our backups SMOKED their #1 defense. We annhilated them when it meant nothing to us and everything to them.

    Last week I said I'm not picking the Chiefs to win the AFC West this year.

    This week I might not pick them to make the Playoffs at all. SI said it best, "Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs might be broken."

    They still have a good chance at it. The Raiders lost their play caller, the Broncos have coaches that using Ask Madden would be an upgrade to and the Chargers are the Chargers. This is feeling like one of those seasons the division leader collapses in the last month and a .500 team wins it.

    That actually works out in the Raiders favour. Gruden can design a great play but he calls an awful game.

    Well one thing is for sure, the chiefs offense is a turnover machine.

    Their defense is also really bad. They are giving up the most points per game (might be second now, since Washington was 2nd worst) and only behind Seattle in yards allowed per game.

    Well, if that's how the offensive play calls are going to be without Gruden, I think we'll be ok.

    Working out well so far with the opening drive TD.

    I hope the Raiders win and Denver's coaching staff gets launched into the sun.

    Turns out neither team wants to play defense today.

    If you dont think Dak's body got over the line on 3rd and goal, your eyes are blind. FUck the refs, go choke on a football.

    Thank god for Moore and Quinn at least. Time for Gregory to get some good sacks on their rookie and make him see ghosts.

    I like seeing every opposing punter boom 70+ yard punts while whoever Denver has had punting since Tom McMahon was hired regularly kicks 40 yard punts.

    I also find it funny that Noah Fant is the only TE in the history of Iowa football that can't block a wet paper towel and that is who Elway picked in the 1st round.

    This season is bizarre to me.

    The Patriots had no business being in the game with Dallas at all today, but like all their losses this year, the Patriots are a few plays from winning the game.

    But, pretty much with this loss, Bills have to implode for anyone else to win the AFC east this year.

    Cowboys really gotta work on stopping the penalties. This wouldnt have even been a contest if you remove even half of them.



    Dak was CLEARLY across the line but whatever. We won. Love the wave by CD

    yeah gotta clean up the penalties but this is a super promising Cowboys team. Its a good thing coaches dont have a cap, so Jerry can just pay Moore like 30 million

    and Diggs streak is still alive! Even if he got beat the very next play xD
