    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 generation

    with 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 had

    His uncles have 4 SB rings between them. Young Arch should be so lucky to be like them

      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.

            @Cyclops the biggest concern for the Pats has to be that the sacks were coming fast and often from rushing 4. Your O Line sucks ass if that's happening. How the hell did they beat the Bengals?

              Oooh, this is a great factoid! Rodgers pass to Garrett Wilson for a TD was his 480th TD pass... and his first to a WR drafted in the first round!

                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 there

                peyton 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

                  and two superbowl MVP's. Including beating the otherwise perfect Pats right?

                    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

                          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.

                              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.

                                  Not on defence. Other than Greenlaw - who after an Achilles pop in the Super Bowl likely isn't going to be near 100% when he does come back this year.

                                    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

                                        Holy shit the NFL is on fire. Top tier comp - so even, so competitive, so entertaining.

                                        Aside from some bloody annoying DAZN redzone issues, what a set of upsets again. And two MNF games today - can't beat it!

                                          It's only the jags, but the bills have possibly got better without Diggs. I thought Allen was a very good QB but would struggle once the quality around him went down as his cap hits went up, but I was wrong.
