Anyone watching this TNF blockbuster?
The Patriots have 40 yards for the entire half? 8 pass attempts and 5 rushes total?? Brissett has been sacked 3 times already??
@mariner4life Sure am. It’s a tough watch but if it’s on you bet I’ll be watching it. Patriots are a hot mess on offense and their defense isn’t a lot better today. ARod picking and choosing. This could get ugly

Rodgers rolling back the years, throwing lasers on the move. I was expecting him to be good, but thought he'd be almost purely a packet posser given his age, and throw the first two weeks that's all he'd been, so dunno whether this is just about the opposition or whether he's getting more confident in his body over the season.
Patriots are putrid though - lacking talent to start and down both starting tackles from last week. Hence the 7 sacks. Some backbreaking penalties too. A few garbage time snaps from Maye - managed to get sacked twice, almost get picked off on his first attempt and a couple of wayward passes. About what you'd expect from a rookie who's developing, but definitely not ready to start yet.
Bengals are going to regret that loss at end of the season I suspect, will be important for seeding even if they still make the playoffs.

haha
he's nothing like Peyton or Eli!
no way either of them could run one in from 60 yards, and they know it
even grandad arch is telling them that his athletic genes skipped a generationwith the added running game, young arch has the potential to be even better than both peyton and eli
his dad (Cooper) was a wide-receiver in college, smashed up his knee real bad (i think) and never made it to the pros
looking like he would have gone ok if he hadHis uncles have 4 SB rings between them. Young Arch should be so lucky to be like them
i never rated eli, but yes he did get real hot twice
with the parity in the NFL, it sort of all rides on your QB getting on a hot streak at play off time
joe flacco for the ravens, classic example
apart from those two times i think eli was only a 500 QB
debate at the moment about whether eli should be in the hall of fame
i say no, but his manning name will probably get him therepeyton was in a different class, still couldn't run the ball to save himself, but probably the greatest QB technician ever
if arch can add a running game to peyton's technical ability. . . . .WOW
interesting to see where he eventually ends up, with the Manning mana in the NFL, pretty sure they'll get him to where they want

To the eyes of a newbie... The Dolphins coach seems like a massive douche.
And the amount of camera time on him.... suggests that's a known fact? -
A week is a long time in the NFL
The high flying saints are held to 12 points and lose to the Eagles.
The fucking Broncos got a win, away at Tampa. And score 26 points!
The Panthers are giving the Raiders a beat down.
The Ravens are back -

lol the Ravens only just held on, and aren't doing anything this year based on that (nor are teh Cowboys though)

I should have learned by now not to get too excited after week 1
The 49ers look like they are taking a typical regression following a Super Bowl loss. Their defense has huge issues and they don't really have many big names to come back and fix it.

you've got some pretty significant outs.

The bucs were 2-0 and looking like a surprise package there too.
0-2 rams tip up the 49ers with a slightly absurd come back as well.
Vikings now 3-0 looking like a handful.
Vikings now 3-0 looking like a handful.
Vikings tend to be strong more often than not over the years through a regular season (everyone surprised now by Darnold as JJ's replacement kicking ass), but if they somehow maintain this effort, they still have to get through post season, where ALL Vikings teams fail to get to Valhalla

I seem to recall we started badly last season and then caught fire. Have faith mate

Not a single punt in the Bengals-Commanders game! Prime time viewing.
Bengals now have a massive hill to climb. I'd say they're good enough to do it but they've dropped two games that should have been easy wins, so I don't see how you can have any confidence that they'll get things done in any other game an their schedule.
Next up they're off to play the Panthers, and their old friend Andy Dalton. Again, should be an easy win, so I wonder how they'll stuff this one up.
