    With a defense as good as LA has and the offensive firepower they have proven to have I don't see how they aren't in anyone's top 3 or 4 NFL teams right now. For sure because the 49ers and Seahawks are pretty down this year making the road a bit easier.

    OBJ I suspect will be a good little boy in LA. He probably likes making lots of money and doesn't want to blow the possibility of landing at least a moderate contract somewhere next year. If he goes crazy again he would be 3 for 3 and his only hope will be the Tom Brady rehabilitation camp in Tampa on a low end contract. If he is a problem at all I suspect he will just get ditched again. He is purely a luxury pick up and not a required piece for success so they won't put up with it. Plus LA will throw the rock at him. It is what they do. Yeah, he will have to rotate a bit more and see the field a few less plays a game but when he does he will see attempts his way.
    The problem with being the top 3-4 in the NFC still puts you possibly behind teams like the Cardinals, Packers, Bucs, Cowboys. I know they are a great team, I just thought it was a weird move when they already have great receivers.

    It will only be great if he can be as productive as woods from the get go.

    Jared Goff is so bad.

    They pointed out during the broadcast that he has a record of 42-20 with McVay and 0-15 without him.

    The Steelers would be a team that is losing to the Lions after 3 quarters while only giving up 29 passing yards because they let the Lions of all teams run for 200 at that point.

    It would be sus if the refs gave them two games in a row.

    hey, Jakobi Myers finally got a TD. the streak is ended!

    I'm surprised the refs didn't do something to stop this Lions/Steelers game from going to OT. It is painful to watch, don't need more of it.

    Happens when your defense doesn't bail out your offense when they turn the ball over.

    Today was awesome.

    After the Browns came up in the first drive and immediately got a TD I was like "Welp, this game might live up to it's billing of a close, back and forth, physical game in the trenches."

    And then we blew them out in convincing fashion.

    Best game of the season for the Patriots, and a building confidence within the team and now highlighted by having team building feel good moments like Meyers getting his 1st TD on his 135th career catch (and NFL record).


    Now if only the Celtics would take notes for how you route Cleveland teams properly.

    The Patriots are starting to sneak up on my head as "this team could win the AFC."

    Lions/Steelers OT is just ugly.
    Ex-Mod. Technically retired, they just won't let me quit.

    Well last week was obviously a fluke. Go 3 and out with a throw behind the line on 3rd and long that ended up being a loss. Nice to see the real Broncos offense showed up.

    Lions about to go 0-16-1.

    The NFL shouldn't have ties in my opinion.
