I felt dirty but I sort of wanted Cowboys to beat Eagles. Just don't want the birds to run away with the NFC East.

In the end it's always nice to see "Dem Boyz" get beat though.

If anyone wants to see something impressive check out what happened at the end of the Chiefs drive just before HT last night. Quality by Butker/chiefs

Only saw YouTube highlights but Mahomes did some usual magic stuff. Herbert also looked very good

Imagine getting sent off 6 seconds into a game for spitting at someone 🤦‍♂️


That made the game rather closer than it otherwise would have been, i think. Hurts looked good, but his passing options were pretty limited throughout, i thought.
Good to see the Chargers beating KC.
Media bigging-up Aaron Rodgers 4 TD passes but Steelers only won courtesy of a last-minute field goal!
Giants are going to struggle unless Wilson gets some protection from the O-line! I think he's past it to be starting. Not the greatest business.

Did anyone see that shitshow on Channel 5? Jay-zus what a pile of crap. I would rather have had more adverts than the third-rate game show. Good to see live NFL on telly, but i won't be hurrying back unless the Birds are playing.

Yeah, would be nice to see another rendition of Hey Mr Tambourine Man.

Not to many surprises week 1 except how easy the Packers beat the Lions.
Ravens - Bills a rollercoaster - shows the difference between the genuine elite QBs worth the big money and the rest

Happy enough with JJ's first outing. Interception will be a wake-up call about stepping up to the NFL. Need Darrisaw back quick because the back up LT left JJ exposed.
NFC North going to tough this year.

Looked like it was going to be a horror show for him and Vikings but great come back. Shows he’s got that mental toughness, impressive especially for someone so young. Reckon O’Connells an ideal coach for him

First half and chunk of the 3rd quarter the game was coached wrong - both sides of the ball. Some poor drops didn't help JJ either (don't normally see Jefferson drop many). But it was much like his draft scouting report - mentally tough and learns quickly (even during a game).

I don't quite know how Chicago lost that, to be honest! Williams looked so dominant, and was really mobile in getting away from the pocket when he needed to. Vikings just covered his targets so well, i guess. McCarthy looks like the real deal, though.

we closed the outsides and forced him to stay in the pocket. His progression reads are still really slow. also we ran the ball better 2nd half. Addison being suspended is a big dent in our offense.

I'm looking forward to the Chiefs-Eagles game this week. Looks like Jalen Carter is going to get a fine rather than a suspension, so reacquainting himself with Mahomes (in a sporting manner) will be fun to watch!
Good luck to the Vikings for the season!
