Wow, the Broncos defense sure works.

Last time was  the turn for Von Miller, now it was por Aqim Talib with two  interceptions  that lead to two touchdowns.

Even Lynch did the job in his debut.

Great bounce back by the Steelers, although KC looked bad.  Ben and company were in sync and the defense was definitely more aggressive which it had not been in the earlier games.

Ravens and Chargers both blew games they should have won.  Seahawks seem to have their groove back.

It will be interesting to see how the Giants handle that Vikings defense in tonight's game.

what a choke by the ... Washington franchise... BOO!!! Not I would ever put a single cent directly or knowingly into the paws of Snyder but if I did manage to attend a ...Washington Franchise game (free tickets of course)... I'd wear a paper bag on my head until they started losing again.  How else will this city and that proud franchise be rid of him. He has been the black plague and pestilence upon Washington area sports... even more so than the f**king Penguins and that is saying something LOL

The Lions lost to the lowly Bears, who had Brian Hoyer at QB today.  Season over.

Missed the game but looks like it was quite a shootout. Not unexpected. 
I won't extrapolate out over the season given we're only 3 games in BUT at this rate Brees would wreck the pass attempts record. 140 attempts in 3 games. Yikes... Things are really getting one sided these days, wonder when RBs just entirely become basically slot receivers.

Ouch!  Steelers got taken to the wood shed for old fashioned butt woopin...the defense was bad.

Got to give it to Philly's defense, they shut down Ben and company.

So Josh McDaniels is the greatest offensive mind in NFL history?

As for my team. Well.....I did say I expect the Giants to loseLOL So I guess I'm not as bummed as I should be?
I couldn't watch the game, so I dont know what happened in between my checks when the score went from 21-6 NY to 24-21 WashCry

I see 2 Eli picks and 118 yards in penalties...which seem like pretty major culprits. Indeed, seems his picks were pretty bad, but what I am more curious about is: What happened to the defense????
I'd ask how on Earth do they limit New Orleans to 13 but let Kirk Cousins mount a comeback and lead take, but like I said: I basically expected this as it would be par for the course for them. Oi....With Philly and Dallas also winning, well yeah. This one hurts. 

Guess at least it's not the Jets. 6 picks?? Ouch. 

Denver's pass game lights up as I chose a horrific time to bench Sanders Cry

I kind of feel the same way.  Since my Lions are still probably far off from a Super Bowl berth, I don't necessarily mind it.

The Patriots might truly be scary this year.  They aren't even at full strength yet.

Not gunna predict a win but NE can absolutely win this, I wouldn't be shocked at all. 
Houston's offense isn't so great, NE can win a defensive struggle. Pass that Blount around hard is all. 
I do have him on fantasy as well so yeah, but really run blount alot, throw those short efficient passes NE excels at (and really anyone should be able to do at the pro level as many rookies have shown) and there ya go. 

Also I don't follow the games, but shockingly (given their losses) PFF had NE ranked as the #3 secondary going into this year. Dont know if this has held up thus far but I'm a big believer in secondaries, a bit unheralded but critical. 

Blount has really stepped up these two games, nice to see.  Yeah, I'm sure he'll get plenty of touches Thursday.  I still would be quite surprised if the Pats win, Brissett put together one decent drive in the second half but then kind of went away, while the defense decided to stop playing for some reason.

In any case, it's all gravy to me.  I was going to be happy with 2-2 and I stand by it.

Steelers did ok in their win over the Bengals, it was a sloppy game with all the rain.  So glad we picked up Williams, almost 100 yards rushing plus good passing yardage also.  The defense still scares me as Dalton lit them up and I don't think we have a sack yet this season...but a win is a win.
Yeah talk about escaping father time. All this talk of the oldest RB in the NFL Id sure as hell take him. 
True, the vaulted Steelers defense is long gone. They've gotten with the times (like it or notLOL) and Ben and that killer offense is the team now. Once Bell is back....that's gunna be scary
