My fantasy nemesis has Tyreek on his team. If there ever was a day that a guy might have 300 yards receiving it would be today. He has a real shot it it....by half time.

Not pretty, but the Cards L was what I came for, so won't complain.

QB stats line in that game was terrible for both.

Newton hasn't been right physically since he went vegan. He then got a few injuries and now he's a shell of the already hot and cold Qb that was hot enough (though he almost choked away two playoff games that year) to get to a SB.

A fair bit of shine off of Murray the last few weeks too. Teams have figured him/the Cards offensive game plan out.

Take away the hail mary 3 weeks ago vs the Bills and the Seahawks handing them the game before that after being ahead and having multiple chances to win, and the last 3 ARI wins have been against the Jets, Cowboys and Washington.

Needless to say today's game has me pretty worried.

I think KC is 19-1 in their last 20 games, including playoffs. Don't worry, be happy.

Jaguars have fired GM Dave Caldwell,

Or we can pretend they’re that much better than everyone else...

Yeah the cheatiest lol

Yup. The good thing about an all runs game being its over really fast..will prob have time to catch the 3rd quarter of the afternoon games at this rate, let alone the 4th.

[flamingred89]

Gotta think Tyreek is going to set a fantasy record too today. Nearing 60 points right now.

[Sylvanfan]

Damn it KC you are giving this game away. Seriously Robinson stay in bounds, than you make a punt like that? It's like they're trying to let Tampa back in it. Pittsburgh wouldn't do this.

[MRCboicgy]

It feels like KC stopped playing offense after the dropped sure-fire 90-yard TD

[Sylvanfan]

Yep and Brady down the field for 75 yards in like a minute 30. Frank Clark is a disaster. What a terrible sequence by KC here. Can Mahomes save his team from themselves again?

[browna]

Romo needs a better partner then Nantz.

Nantz is more concerned about painting a Sunday at the Masters story with stats and history then proper play by play and following the flow of the game. Large pockets of silence and Romo then starts rambling, some of it good, some of it not so good.

[Sainters7]

Mahomes is ridiculous

[Senator Clay Davis]

Felt like one of the more lopsided 3 point wins you'll ever see. I do hope we get a few more games like the Rams-Chiefs back and forth fest so Mahomes can take a run at 600 yards in a game.

I don't understand why they didn't postpone the Broncos/NO game considering the circumstances. There have been a few games postponed under similar or even lesser circumstances. I can't imagine that NFC teams competing with NO were very happy about this either.

It was discussed earlier in this thread, but one QB tested positive and had close contact with all 3 other QBs (incl practice squad QB) with all maskless. Those players and the team then were uncooperative with the league's contact tracers and investigators (obviously trying to avoid them finding out exactly what happened). The latter is what sealed the deal for the league not giving them a postponement (they officially claim its because 1 positive is not an outbreak, but they've postponed for less IIRC) as unofficial punishment for the uncooperative actions and stonewalling.

And all this shook down too close to gameday for them to sign any replacements with the 6 day isolation period for any new joiners before they can practice/play w/ team.

Trubisky is my favorite QB not named Rogers.

The gift that keeps on giving.

It's weird though, he seems to have all the tools and abilities to be at least a decent player but that tool box on top of his shoulder pads is woefully inadequate.

[troutman]

As noted on SNF, GB has pretty much had two starting QBs since 1992.

I wonder how much QB play comes down to vision, and knowing in 3D where everyone is going.
