    After a 3-0 start to the season (because they played the worst 3 teams in the comp) the Broncos have gone 0-3 in their last 3, and it's been ugly.

    And, if social media is any indication, the fan base is pissed. Pissed at the front office, pissed at the coach, pissed at the moves made, especially at QB

    And justifiably so.

    Yes, it's a tough division, but the Broncos are pretty fucking average. And going nowhere with a plan based around "just do enough" thinking that doesn't build anything, nor fall back far enough to get really high picks. Shit, sort of like the Spurs...

    Another weird weekend
    Ravens smoked the Chargers, which i doubt anyone saw coming
    The Jags won a game! And Miami suck (that division man, it's always 1 good team and 3 dumpster fires)
    Panthers are falling back to the pack
    Patriots managed to take the Cowboys to OT (Trevon Diggs has 6 interceptions in 5 games)

    sorry, my info was a week out of date, Diggs has 7 picks in 6 games.

    that's insane

    The record for most in a season is 14. He has 11 games to get 8

    Aaron Rodgers really let the Chicago fans have it today after scoring the match sealing touchdown.

    Part of this was picked up on the sideline mics.

    35 km /h, and 108 km/h. Ridiculous. Forget trying to tackle him.

    thing is, he has a side step to go with it. He's insane.

    Fun game, Jones could be a pretty good QB. Receivers weren't great, and the defence was terrible, but he played pretty well. Belichek always does this - pulls a bunch of no-names, and builds them into some sort of decent defence by the end of the year. Could be one loss too many so far though.

    There are very few dud teams, adn a whole lot of good games out there. This has been one of the best seasons I can remember so far.

    Loving Aaron Rodgers trash talking the fans - don't taunt the players, taunt the fanbase!

    distribution skills would be pants.

    Wing, on the other hand...

    look, in a sport full of elite athletes, he makes people look like schoolboys regularly. It's remarkable. I don't know how long he'll dominate, but I love watching him play

    I had a 52 point buffer in my fantasy football match-up with my opponent having just Derrick Henry and Josh Allen to play for the week. They ended up scoring 60 odd fantasy points between them - Henry's 75 yard touchdown was particularly unhelpful to my cause. The guy is a beast.

    everyone involved in reaching the decision that Teddy Bridgewater was the answer deserves to be fired.

    clean out imminent at the Broncos. They fucking suck. Browns are dominating us with fucking Keenum under centre FFS

    here are the stats just past the mid-point of the 2nd Quarter

    Denver/Browns

    Yards 67/201
    Time in possession 7.38/16.37

    Denver haven't converted a 3rd down

    just dominated and it's astounding it's only 10-zip

    Chiefs are cooked.
    Henry is awesome
    The Ravens got blown out by the Bengals who go to top of the division
    Oh, look, the Jets still suck, flogged by the Patriots today

    Tom Brady has absolutely signed a pact with the devil, and at some point will have to pay the price.

    A solid backup QB. Won't win you many games, but won't be the reason you lose too many either

    Pretty fair to say talk of a KC dynasty was very premature

    surprise fo the season there!

    they'll be back, I have no doubt. But not this year - but Mahomes and Reid are too good to stay down forever.

    Turnovers are just killing them this season

    defense is rubbish, o-line not providing the protection, no run game, and that's leading to Mahomes trying more and more, but not pulling it off. Also defenses are not allowing them those big plays.

    49ers are a mess right now.

    For all Kyle Shanahan's offensive genius, his teams are not switched on, they are Injury-prone and ill-disciplined.

    49ers must be getting very close to the point to pulling the pin on Jimmy G and putting in Trey Lance. There's really bugger all difference between them right now performance wise so you might as well let Trey learn by playing - he badly needs game reps. Of course Trey Lance is injured right now as is half the team seemingly every week......

    Must be a problem with their conditioning coaches
