Don't care. Doesn't make this week any less awesome.

You're going to be that fan that posts that picture years from now like an Oiler fan.

Lol.

Patriots will probably be fine once Edelman comes back and if Josh Gordon can avoid weed in a state it's legal (guuuuuuulp). But right now it's very easy to beat them, take Gronk away and watch Brady struggle. So if Gronk gets hurt for instance, then it's take Edelman away. Trading Brandin Cooks is looking mighty stupid right now.

Browns were the favorites, so you'd probably be better off with the Giants/Titans, Bills, Lions.

Yeah but the underdog pays better. Browns could really be 3-0 if they started Baker week 1. Yeah you can blame the kicker, but with better QB play they probably don't need to rely on the kicker.

That was so awesome! I had a feeling the Bills would win...seriously.

Allen is fearless. I'm worried he is going to get rocked one of these games but he sure is fun to watch.

Also, first time for me listening to a game with Tony Romo calling it. He is delightful. Funny and insightful.

I'm calling the Bills beat the Packers next week to get to 2-2.

Wow, I had my dolphins winning in and around 5 games this season. Shocked to see them 3-0. That being said, the quality of opposition thus far has a lot to do with that, but good on them for winning those regardless.


Their first real test upcoming against, what I would imagine, will be a hungry/desperate new england group.

I'm absolutely terrified with how much Payton is using Kamara on PRs too, ever since their main returner Tommylee Lewis got placed on IR. Agreed I worry about his work load too. Only one more game until Ingram can return, thank jebus.

Through the first three weeks the Raiders have led every game at halftime and have not been behind for a single snap in the first 3 quarters of any game yet are 0-3. Now I know what it feels like to be a Chargers fan.

Imagine if the Raiders had an elite pass rusher to help close out games? I hear those are really hard to find. Hopefully you didn't trade one recently, that would really suck.

As I said before, despite Trubisky being one of the five worst starting QBs in the league, the Bears should be 3-0, and that's beating Aaron Rodgers and Russell Wilson. Elite defense and league average QB play can win the Super Bowl. The Raiders will struggle to find two pass rushers who make up Mack's impact from those two draft picks. And if the Bears win their crappy division and the Raiders go 5-11, the first part of this trade could be swapping 12-15 places in the draft (with the Bears somehow netting a second round pick). So add in a first round pick, and trading a HOF talent has huge debacle potential for the Raiders.

Further to our earlier discussion about whether the Seahawks could get a king’s ransom for Wilson, watch the highlight package from yesterday.



The thing is, count how many clips in that highlight package Wilson hangs onto the ball for longer than 2 seconds. I counted two – one was a sack, and the other he scrambled and barely made it back to the line of scrimmage. Meanwhile, when the offense is just a bunch of quick passes, he can thread the needle as well as anyone. They don’t have the O-line to allow him to effectively extend plays, but he’s effective nonetheless (particularly when they run the ball as much as they did in this one). Give him an actual offensive line and he’s still in the conversation for best in the league.

The Bears losing to the Packers is all on Fuller. Me and you would have intercepted that Rodgers pass.
