Impressive comeback, and dominant 4Q by the Packers and Love. This is the Packers team many expected to see as the season started. Having Watson back sure helped. Today was also aptly named National Tight End's Day. Tucker Kraft had 7 catches for 143 yards and 2 TDs for the Pack! In two...

Jets comeback over the Bengals absolutely wild. Probably the best game of Fields career. Completely written off (including by me), the owner of the team trashes him, and he plays a superb game. Eagles are going to be a difficult team for anyone to beat. So solid in every phase of the game. Cam...

MIA@ATL - Kirk Cousins comeback game for the Falcons! NYJ@CIN - Just days after Woody trashed Fields, he will be starting with Taylor out. BUF@CAR - Bills haven't looked great of late, while the Panthers seem on the up. CHI@BAL - Bears have won 4 in a row. Ravens cannot afford to lose. Get...

Precisely. He finally did put Brosmer in for the last series, that's it. I think Wentz is into Andrew Luck, Derek Carr, RGIII territory, in that I don't know if his body can handle much more football. Two ACL tears, broken wrist, broken ribs, broken fingers, now a thrashed shoulder and...

Miserable game for Carson Wentz and the Vikings. Their OL, a strength last year, was porous. And their defense couldn't stop the run, and left so many gaps in their zone in passing. Chargers were workmanlike in this win though, a good bounce back from last week's beating at the hands of the...

Watch closer. They didn't "fall for it". Mahomes and the Chiefs just converted, that's all. The announcers maybe were thrown off, but the Raiders stayed in position.

I'm reminded of when Jimmy Johnson's Cowboys needed a kicker, and he hired an aging Eddie Murray at the end of his career. The way Jimmy tells the story Eddie told him, "Coach, I can still kick straight. I can still make last second kicks under pressure. I just can't kick it as far as I used...

Jets weren't smart enough to front-load the 2-year $40m deal, and $30m of that is fully guaranteed, so Woody is doling that out to him no matter what. Maybe they can convert him to a WR/gadget guy. Sort of like Terrelle Pryor meets Taysom Hill? As to Daniels, you may recall me saying the only...

Impressive game for Seattle, 1st half especially, but the Texans came to play. Tough, gritty game. Will be interesting to see when Seattle plays the Rams, and Colts in a few weeks.

Looks like a bad concussion, likely to miss 2 weeks, but who knows. Shoulder injury unknown. Lions playing motivated. Taking out their frustrations in the KC game on the Bucs. Curious what the Texans can show against an improving Seahawks team.

There have been other collapses though over the years, other comebacks. But I do agree this one was almost surreal. As I said in my first post about the game, Denver had no business winning. They were not in the game for three quarters, at all. It wasn't even close. Maybe surprising the way the...

I dunno, did Daniels completely thrash his knee? Otherwise, RGIII was quite good until that happened, ROY and all. I wouldn't be too offended by the comparison. As to Herbert, he played like he did two years ago. Some big throws, many throws, piling up yards. But couldn't execute when it mattered.

Mac Jones did not have a good game and SF will welcome Purdy back, but the Niners defense, without Fred Warner, were excellent. Penix got yards, but whenever they got moving SF just shut them down, closing the game out late.

LOL! Glad you saw it also. It was pretty ridiculous. Not only did Denver flip a switch and turn Nix into Tom Brady, the Giants all of a sudden flipped the other direction. Totally different team than the first 3Q. I've never felt it was scripted (WWE style), but am certain there are aspects that...

Denver had no business beating the Giants, who absolutely had the game won and shot themselves in the foot, more than once. Giving up all 33 points in the 4th quarter. Timid play calling, bad mistakes. Unreal collapse. Colts look for real. Their ability to move the ball almost at will against a...
