Foles is only good when he comes off the bench, apparently

The football equivalent of a sixth man

Looks like another over-reaction Monday is already in progress. Might as well jump in here.

Also, Trubisky I saw was benched. About time.

Foles and the 3-0 Bears all the way?

Green Bay is going to the Super Bowl, watch unless something major happens they could go all the way.

Mike Vrabel is a defensive guy, he has to figure this out, and quickly. We have enough talent up front to rack up 25+ sacks with our top 4 guys there alone. (I don't think 10 from Landry, 9 from Clowney, 6 from Simmons, and 5 from Beasley is outlandish at all)

EDIT:
After watching the highlights, Derrick Henry has some incredible hops, that one touchdown he jumped in for was crazy. At what, 250 pounds, its hard to move like that.

Yeah, the stat sheet says you sacked Kirk 2 times. If he goes down fewer than 10 times in a game, you should be concerned about your pass rush.

I hope so. I think the Ravens or Chiefs would kill them. OTOH Aaron Rodgers who is almost 37 year old usually gets banged up before the season's over. So, is this the year he doesn't get too beat up by playoff time?

That’s actually as many as they got combined in weeks 1 and 2. Not that Minshew and Lock aren’t athletic, but one sack a piece is just bad.

You can't even beat the Chargers or Titans

I don’t think that’s something to put in the sand that CAN’T happen.

Spite is a great motivator after all.

I have zero fucks to give and all the spite to bask in. I've hit some sort of critical mass of not giving a shit about sports. My only joy comes from watching Luka Doncic but his team is trash.

I think even without spite, the Packers are a good candidate. They played outstanding football last night, even without the Saints’ penalties helping them. I think it’s fair to give credit where credit is due without being obscenely angry.

Unless you’re a Vikings fan. Sorry, Kohr and Main. :/

And there goes Jurrell Casey.

Can this season just fuck off already? Fucking Christ, every time I check ESPN someone else on my team is done. Fricking fuck.

I swear Denver got hit with some kind of curse. Jurrell Casey was practically an iron man for the Titans.

Big Dick Nick is the starter going forward.

Time for perhaps the biggest game of the year: Chiefs vs Ravens.

All that running around and over and under and they get three? Tsk.

Well, Chiefs missed the kicked so 6-3. Also, that tripping call was, umm, not a good one.

Looks like the refs got- tripped up

Chiefs are marching down the field. Somewhat slowly but it seems they're trying to drain the Ravens D.

Drain the ... there's no swamp in Baltimore ... or are they in Kansas City?

Also, nice run on the kickoff return!

Indeed but the Mahomes is trying to bring it home: 20 yarder to Hill surely kills any defense, especially with the moves Mahomes have. Yeah, I would snap like a twig if that were me.
