Is it just me or are there a lot more awful teams than usual this year. A team as bad as the bills would normally be in the bottom two in the league but between the raiders, 9ers, browns, Jets, Cardinals, Lions, giants...there's a lot of competition for draft picks this year

between brownies and raiders for the number 1 pick in my opinion , brown's are a mess and probably wont win again for the season

Oh the raiders have the first pick sewn up from what I've seen. But I don't remember a year when there were so many obviously awful teams in the league at the same time.

Seven poor enough games in the early window.

Ravens need to blow it up.

Not much point in being a game or two away from the playoffs every year.

Flacco has been alright this year to be fair but next season is a great opportunity to cut and move on given the cap hit.

he threw a few bad one's alright but there is a bigger picture here to highlight the jets bad run not just this season

Yeah pretty dull but it all looked fairly boring on paper as well. That saints Rams game and the Patriots Packers later are both good enough to make up for it. Although the pats should win pulling up really.

Saw 3 of the picks, and they were all brutal.
Tight game, 4 INTs by the QB.

dfx-

Huge series of AFC North games for the Steelers to win. Tough enough primetime schedule to come and short week, so huge to take control of the division with wins in Cincinatti and Baltimore

mikemac2

Ravens go 4-5 and are 44-45 since their Super Bowl win

Jason LaConfora who would be well known and a Baltimore native was in the media last week advocating to clean house, trade some of the veterans and their big deals and purge the cap. Full rebuild mode. I don’t disagree.

I miss Gary Kukiak

Just reached half way point in the season. Week 1 doesn't seem that long ago at all

Really?
The Pats D is not good. Rodgers should have a good night, so it should be close.
Only 2nd time Brady and Rodgers square off. Pity it’s been so rare, and both teams aren’t closer to their prime (last game was really good).

For the Ravens, they need a change a head coach, esp if they are going to move on from Flacco. Only lost by 7pts, but the Steelers controlled that game.

There were talks this week as well of Harbaugh being in the hot seat, which I think would be a classic case of throwing the baby out with the bathwater.
He'd have no trouble getting another job anyway.

And yet Darnold is the least of the Jets problems

Saints just love going for 4th downs. That was some conversion

Paully D

Looks like whoever has the ball last will win this Saints/Rams game!

LuckyGent88

This is some 1st quarter between saints and rams.

BonnieSituation

Living up to its billing anyway

windy shepard henderson

excellent game so far has almost a play off feel about it

Paully D

Harbaugh isn’t a bad coach obviously, and he’ll get a job somewhere else as soon as he wants one and I’d wager on him being a success, but after a significant period of time at a team, a coach’s message eventually becomes stale.

Ravens were probably at that stage a couple of years ago in all honesty.

jack presley

Hekker at it again.

Paully D

I thought he got that.

Very close all the same.

BonnieSituation

Looks like just short.

Serious balls.

LuckyGent88

Surprised that wasn’t overturned to be honest. Let off for the saints to not concede after the turnover

I've seen a lot of Ravens fans blame Newsome for the situation that they're in. With a new GM and QB in waiting I think it may be a good time for a change for both parties. Maybe his message has gone stale but you have to think he'd get a job pretty quickly maybe even in the same division!

He’d actually be ideal for what the Browns need at this moment in time, IMO.

I love when icing the kicker comes back to bite you.

Same
Hate that tactic

LuckyGent88

Saints offense is on fire. Brees is just ridiculous and Alvin Camera is a serious player.

coco0981

That's a crucial turnover. If Saints score again it'll be close to being over

ScrubsfanChris

Saints are looking the real deal

Big Pussy Bonpensiero

That non-reversal on the 4th down attempt is really costing the Rams. The Saints have been absolutely red-hot on offense though. Still wouldn't put it past the Rams coming back though.

They really are.

Why wasn't a flag thrown for Littleton's helmet-to-helmet on Line?

Foxtrol

Real test for the Rams. They've brought in a number of guys with character questions so it'll be interesting to see how they deal with their first bit of real adversity this season.

windy shepard henderson

i imagine if both teams meet again down the road in the play offs todd gurley would see a lot more of the ball , the rams have rushed for just 11 yards at half time for them that's not good

BonnieSituation

That TD from Brown was amazing

Seem to be dealing with it quite well.

Great 2nd half from them so far. Brees and co haven’t done a thing this half.

i still think the best TD of the night was Brees's low underneath pass to the chest of benji watson for the saints 3rd touch down ,

rams starting to flex the muscles now super game

jack presley

Early games were a bit crap but these 3 are great.

jack presley

Gronk not playing tonight.

That was a serious TD.

Brown's was pure individual brilliance.

jack presley

Some finishes here.

BonnieSituation

Even that FG was a beaut

And just like that, it’s a 2 score game again!

WOW!

Thomas hid a phone under the goal posts for a TD celebration...... seen it all now.

Say Your Number

A penalty for taking out a phone during a celebration, Christ they are no craic at all.

BonnieSituation

In fairness it was douchey. Deserve the penalty and look where the Rams are as a result.
