It was only the Browns. I believe Brady is good when he beats a real team.

Felt like they did what they needed then shut it down into contain mode. They'll probably beat up the Bengals at home next week, Steelers will be a real challenge the week after.

Playing Cleveland helps LOL

Besides... so damn salty about your precious QB. Always made sure to stress how Brady is a good player.

Just he's also the product of a superb system and I think he deff aint the GOAT or anything like that. It was said here before, imagine if he was picked up by a different team, with a different coach...

He'll deff be motivated as hell to burn down the world because oh.....woe is him, caught breaking the rules again how mean of people to call him a cheater, and oh woe for the Pats off their 4th SB in 15 years how hard life is for all them LOL

Though with Gronk coming to health, he and Martellus will be one helluva duo. Wont be Gronk/Hernandez good, but it'll provide that dual threat and more variety than just their crop of slot WRs. A big fan of the two TE system. It'll be darn hard to stop that

Speaking of hard life....so that Giants game.

(PA was down, guess it knew I'd be coming here to rage and decided to give me time to cool off LOL

)

But yeah, that was shameful. The defense actually played as well as one could really expect, especially when considering they were on the field basically all game long. Still pretty disturbed by the lack of pass rush. They were getting through Dallas' line, really left me hopeful but seems that may have been week 1 luck.

That offense though, holy crap. Was excited about the potential our WR trio could provide. Now...well one time they were lining up for first down, went to the kitchen for a drink, came back what couldn't have been more than a minute later: punting. LOL

Eli just looks awful at the moment. It's crazy to think how superb he used to be under pressure, now seems a defender breathes near him and he's done. Maybe years of sh*t O line play have gotten to his head.

I'm done with this conversation. There's no point to it at all, just rehashing the same bullsh*t over and over again. I don't give a god damn what you think anyway.

lol yeah. I was just mimicking the same criticism the Eagles got after demolishing the Browns and objectively looking great doing so.

Yeah stupid Mathews, and first really dumb thing we've seen Wentz do. Sproles 1-1 with a LB presnap, comes open for at least 8 yards + oob, possibility for 30 if he makes LB miss turning corner, Matthews came open on play for 12 yards and oob. Ugh presnap read has Agholor covered by one of the best CBs in game with S over top. So much time on the clock. I don't get it. I think the pressure off the G-C stunt made him panic and heave to the one area of the field he could clearly see the coverage after resetting his feet.

After that safety I wouldn't sworn the chargers were going to lose 24-21.

Thankfully they held on for a change.

Seems like a classic tale of two halves for the Giants. Absolutely brutal that first half, but what an offensive explosion that. 222 yards for ODB. Dude is a beast, no way around it.

I mean, absolute garbage from the run game, and the first half seemed like a total sputter.

But hey, win is a win and glad to see when Eli needs to turn it on he can still put up 400 and 3 TDs like its nothing. Honestly, team should just abandon the huddle LOL

He was always best no huddle/hurry up...just play the whole damn game that way.

Win is a win though. 3-3 woo!

Staff puts up some good numbers with his rag tag group of WRs..guy has really developed from the old days of "lob it within 10 yards of Calvin"

Exciting ass shootout for NO/Carolina. Why did people think Brees was done?

Though Rodgers is certainly not looking so hot, and Dallas doesn't really have a great defense. WTF.

That said, clearly they're the team to beat in the East. Dat run game holy sh*t and Dak is adding potency to his efficiency.

Skins manage to put Wentz back on Earth, but still at this rate Giants somehow look like the worst team of the division. Given the offensive potential and all that $ spend on defense, it better change damn fast.

Brady is indeed out for blood, nothing motivates a guy like the world being against you....for being caught for cheating LOL

But they are probably SB favorites. I felt so before the year began and feel even more confident now.

I have watched football for 20 years, but this is the weirdest game I ever seen.

Cardinals vs Seahawks 6 - 6.

Two short field goals lost in the extra time, simply unbelievable.

Both teams deserved to loose.

Missed all the games today, sadly...seemed like some real doozers.

The 6-6 tie with each team missing a FG. Epic LOL

No idea how the Giants managed to win. I see they had 4 picks off Keenum and eeked out a 7 point victory. Oi

Seems Collins is improving his aerial defense, that INT TD basically being the difference in the game.

That offense...holy hell, no idea what is wrong with it. I'll pray the Rams nasty pass rush is the culprit, as the Giants new offense is far less mistake prone but also less attacking and can't really handle a pass rush.

Oh, and Donnell had a fumble. I wonder if it was another of his random jump and quarter flipping for no reason, thus crash landing and fumbles LOL

Done it numerous times and even admitted he has no idea why.

In a way, a tie is like a loss in that they both missed out on an extra W, which could come back to haunt them.
