Might work out in the Sabres favour cause they have seemed to always start off pretty well the past few seasons

Does that Tyreek Hill rushing touchdown not count for anything ?

And the fact the Dolphins are missing their top 3 RB’s is very noticeable today. Running game takes pressure off of their inexperienced QB

Yes, absolutely!

Nice. Hard not to like the Colts this year - plucky sumbithces.

I don't believe Tua is a good QB. I wish it was Fitzmagic time.

But let's be real, KC is the team to beat for the rest of the year.

Really?
I've watched a couple if their games and walk away thinking for a rookie having only played a few games, he looks good already.

KC was playing like they were a bored team. Got down 10-0 then turned the switch back on. It’s tough to get a read on Tua. He’s pretty accurate but loses all pass integrity when he tries to throw more than 15 yards down the field. He also has limited talent at the WR position. I think he’ll be injury prone too. They may end of regretting taking him over Herbert.

Contender/pretender game.

Glad Miami is losing big. Division squarely in the hands of the Bills and a win tonight pretty much clinches it

I'd both love and hate a good ol fashioned Lake Erie playoff battle this year. Remind me of Kozar v Kelly back in the day.

I’ve watched every game of his. He’s very poised and has good instincts but I think he ends up being a game manager not elite.

I think they lost Parker, which didn't help. Not a big Tua fan. Way over-hyped imo

Win tonight and in Denver next week does clinch it. Both, of course, will be really tough games

Could very well happen at some point. I really like Cleveland, especially after OBJ went down

The better without him debate I think is fascinating (seems clear they are). Wonder what John Tavares thinks about it.

He's (frank)ing garbage but that's just my opinion. His comp % is around 50%, which is terrible, he always throws to his 1st or 2nd read, he looks skittish in the pocket, and he plays scared.

I have watched several Miami games this year and he just does not impress me at all. Mariota 2.0.

Edited for completion % acknowledgement it's better than I realized but I don't like his throwing mechanics and he's checked down a ton.

Sure, and Drew Lock has better numbers than Josh Allen did through his first 15 starts.

I don’t think Drew Lock is the future for the Broncos, but maybe 15 games isn’t a large enough sample size ?

I’m not going to write Tua off after 6 games.

On the other hand, he humiliated Lena Dunham without saying a word.

Overall, f him though.

Raiders are a really inconsistent team, but Gruden has steadily improved them for a 3rd year in a row, hard not to like the Raiders this year but I have always liked the Colts, always liked Rivers and you gotta root for Reich.

Colts defense is great this year, too. If Rivers can manage the game, they could be a dark-horse in the playoffs this season.
