I tend to like to see 4 games before I can start spec-u-larizing about any of the teams. Rams, Seahawks, 49ers, Eagles, Broncos, etc.

I dunno what the Rams are yet. Playing against Jameis Winston inflated the Defense performance, and playing against bad CBs inflated the offensive performance, so lets see how they do in Denver.

Broncos lost to the Chiefs 31-10 in KC, and beat the Jaguars 20-13 at home.

Broncos, this week, look like they are not missing any key players due to injury.

McVay is 3-1 against Payton, including the infamous pass-interference-Non-call game.

I think the Giants were jet-lagged. What time did they get to LA ?

Also, I’m vexed that they didnt get Davante 6 more yards.

Browns fans have to be the most conflicted fans in the NFL.

In the ashes of a Global Armeggedon, i cant see any reason why marshmallows would evolve post-apocolyptic-sailor-suits. I hate to play the science card, but still.

This is a big game, btw. I have no feel for it. But it will tell us a lot about Both teams.

Mina on the Super Team.
(should start at 39 min mark)

I have said this before, but I really like the Saints QB. He plays with a…calmness. He’s fearless. Gutsy. Seems to process quickly. He’s a bit of a risk-taker, though. For better or worse.

I watched some of Wentz vs the Bears. I thought he looked pretty-awful, but he did not make the big mistake. The Vikes coach kept him on a very tight leash and it worked in this game.

Bears fans have to be sick. I mean not only does Caleb go down — he goes down on a play where it looked like he was on his way for the winning TD. I hate Ben Johnson, though, so, I enjoyed the Genius losing, with a grand total of 3 points.

The Eagles are so annoying. They are going to win a shit-load of super-ugly games. The Rams HAVE to win the Eagle game. Must win.

D.Watson probly just won the Browns starting-QB-job. Fitting, in the Trump-era. The hellscape continues to take shape.

I see. So you think Stetson Bennett will start.

Troy Aikman says Norv Turner saved his career by changing the culture around him…

“There’s a reason why Norv Turner was my presenter when I went into the Pro Football Hall of Fame. Michael and Emmitt, they both credit Norv Turner for turning their careers around.”

Its interesting that Emmitt says Norv ‘simplified’ the system in Dallas.
