    And Vanderbilt beat LSU.
    Vandy into the top 10 for first time since 1947!

    i watched that Netflix series, the Vandy coach was very impressive.

    Denver bitch slap the Cowboys, the season is going pretty well.

    Dolphins got a win to probably save two jobs
    Ravens get a win with their back-up QB
    Patriots and Colts continue to have good seasons

    no TD in 2 games.

    Dropped 39 on the Bungles. Ridiculous.

    I mean, Flacco comes in, looks good, puts up 38 points ... and loses?

    Welcome to the Justin Fields experience. I think since his debut he leads the league in 30+ point swings in QBR between games. The good Justin Fields is a borderline top 10 QB (he's shown up twice, maybe 3 times if you're being generous). The bad Justin Fields isn't worth putting on a practice squad.

    It's not just stuff like inconsistent accuracy or anything either, it's crazy stuff like one week he'll hesitate too long on easy completions and take a sack, and the next week he'll calmly work through his progressions like a 10 year starter.

    Jets go into a bye and then get the Browns. I suspect that this is just a blip (Nick Mangold dieing just before the match maybe a factor?) and they'll find a new frustrating way to lose, but this is a good chance to turn in around. If Glenn can have a solid run down the stretch it will be very promising for next season (although that will also put the Dan Campbell comparisons into overdrive which is just stupid)

    Wild trade deadline, colts send 2 first plus Adonai Mitchell to the jets for Sauce, and cowboys send a first and a second plus mazi smith to the Jets for Quinnen Williams.

    Both of those guys are blue chip players. I don't see either of them being worth anywhere near that (comparison: disgruntled Micah Parsons got 2 first and Kenny Clark).

    Jets not having a fire sale as they apparently turned down reasonable offers for other players. I think this was just two offers that were too good to say no to.

    Colts in particular I'm very interested to monitor - Jones is having a mini revival but I don't think it's sustainable and even if it is they'll need to pay him (one year deal). And now they have no first this year or next.

    Cowboys are a joke of a franchise at this point. Jerry Jones saw Woody Johnson doing his best to trash the Jets and said hold my beer.

    Yes, yes, but everyone knows who the owner is.

    I don't see them Cowboys getting back to the top until JJ sells the team. He doesn't seem to run it like a professional organisation, it's his personal play thing

    He said he bought it for something to do.
    Seems to be more interested in drilling for gas at the mo.
    What ever you can say about his ability to run a football team, he sure knows how to do business.

    In fact I would say what Jerry has done with Cowboys is the reason all the big investors (like silverlake) want to get into any sort of sports franchise.
    It's not to make money (the players are the ones who make money); it's to make the capital gain.
    He bought it for $140 mil 35 years ago and its now worth $12.8 billion.
    Thats a 9,000% return. I think.
    And that's on top of not winning a championship for 30 years!
    Imagine what it would be worth if they were actually winning.

    And in some very sad news their DE Marshawn Kneeland has died. He scored a TD just a couple of days ago. No announcement on cause of death but nothing sinister has been intimated. Sad news as he was only on 24yo

    Apparently self inflicted gunshot wound in his car.

    Really sad

    @nzzp I read a story about how his mother died not long after he was drafted and it had been taking its toll on him.
