Man KC is awful. Can't run the ball, can't pass the ball, can't punt the ball.

Recipe for disaster.

At least this draft is promising at QB.....probably the worst time to play Pittsburgh too. But losing 60-0.....that's terrible. But I'm used to it. Chiefs always suck on Sunday Night football.

Down 29 with one play left in the half. Go for the end zone you donkeys.

Blaine Gabbert and the Niners are better than this team.

Viking fans used to hate Brad Childress. They were right.

I think I'm going to become a Broncos fan.

Only thing worse would be a Raiders fan!

I'm starting to think we should maybe have some NFL contraction. Probably have a lot fewer crappy games with only 24 teams. Of course it'll never happen (until the ratings really tank), but one can dream. It's week 4 and we had a load of crap games, and the week 5 schedule looks to be more of the same.

Yeah there haven't really been any games that have screamed "must-see TV" to me through first four weeks.

I had a guy in my league get every running back injured, last Monday traded Lacy and Sanu to him for Julio and Doug Martin, Still dont know how I pulled that one out!!!

When he gets back Martin will be better than Lacy for the rest of the year.

That is an interesting idea, but it seems to me there will always be winners and losers, no matter how many teams there are.

1976 for example - 28 teams. TB 0-14, SEA 2-12, BUF 2-12, NYJ 3-11, NYG 3-11, PHI 4-10, ATL 4-10, NO 4-10.

Vikings look good. Wasn't that long ago that them going to LA was a possibility. Looks like a fun atmosphere inside that stadium. I'm sure they miss that donkey Childress....

Pretty interesting stat...

Other than the season opener Panthers vs Broncos, its been a pretty painful start to the season. It's getting hard to sit down and watch a game when its 75% commercials

Yeah that's why I'm always behind in the prime time games. I just can't handle all the extra commercial breaks.

Vikings are for real, as is that stadium. As someone who completely opposes the idea of an indoor-only football stadium for the Stamps, seeing all the sun shine through the glass panels on the ceiling made me a little more open to it.

Great stadium, just wish they could have grass somehow.

IIRC, the Vikings wanted an outdoor stadium, but the governments demanded an indoor stadium that could be used for other events.
