Yep.

The "fix is in" in favor of a team that the league forced to appeal a suspension almost all the way to the Supreme Court and spent millions of dollars on to get a report made? Yeah.....no.

Atlanta loses, Rodgers is out for a while. Christ, I think the Eagles just became the favourites in the NFC. This is not good at all.

Maybe they want the Jets picking 1st overall to get a star QB in that market? Maybe as much as everyone hates the Pats they are good for business? I agree it's not an NFL thing and more an official thing. The calls have been so bad in this game it goes beyond incompetence. IMO Corrente should get suspended for his performance today.

Just have to avoid the injury bug and they look like they will easily punch their ticket to the playoffs. I think they are a well coached team and will do better once they add more talent to that offense.

Yeah, I just hate emotionally investing in this team because they will inevitably rip my heart out again haha.

You just have to get on and enjoy the ride on it's "ups". It's happening to me this year with the Raiders. I'm just happy the Stamps look great and the Flames are off to a good start. Keeps me from dwelling on a disappointing Raiders season.

Super Bowl trophy seems more wide open than any recent year I can remember. No one or two great teams out there.

Hopefully the Jets file a grievance or a protest about this game.

Reffing in the NFL is a complete joke I just saw the play and I'm in shock that's not a TD. They need an overhaul of the system because it's broken

I've never seen a game in my life like that Saints/Lions game. Straight insanity.

Rattling off 3 straight W's after about the most demoralizing first 2 games of the year you could have, combined with a Falcons L today. Me likey.

Looks like a pretty easy 250 for Bell today. God I hate the Steelers

Steelers defense has been outstanding today.

Offense is all Bell. He's a joy to watch when he's on his game.
