Bengals are a tough matchup for both KC and Buffalo for whatever reason, and prove the old saying that the NFL is all about matchups. Burrow is 1-5 against the Browns in his career, yet people were calling KC's stadium Burrowhead because of how the Bengals always seemed to win against KC. This is why playoff seedings and matchups matter. Think of NE's Super Bowl runs where all they had to do was win 2 homes games vs the Titans and Jaguars and they're back in the SB. If the Bills secure the #1 seed and things fall a certain way it could be wins at home against the Jets and Texans (or something similar). Or it could be Wildcard Week vs Cin, then the Ravens, then KC.

Caleb looks totally rattled all night Like so many drought era QBs

Interesting to see how Williams handles this opportunity OL needs to block

Bears should have hired an offensive minded HC

Bears OL is laughably bad Their LT is getting beat every play

So throwing a punch is ok

And for some reason they cannot beat Cleveland

A flag! But the right call unfortunately

Either Ravens will be 0-3 or Dallas 1-2 Horrific start either way for Super Bowl contenders

Lots of meh games but the weather is amazing so I'll just watch the night games. I'm curious to see how Rodgers does

Very exciting to see Von play this well, and surprising to me. I also like his limited snaps. Keep the man healthy for crunch time.

I never thought he would retire. All the "this is it for him" talk seemed like talking heads manifesting more than reality. To be 100% honest, if I were him I probably would not retire either despite the obvious risks. People do far more dangerous work every day for a hell of a lot less money. I would probably talk myself into taking additional steps equipment wise, playing the game a bit differently to protect myself and buying into the idea that a lot of it was just bad luck. Plus Mitch Morse and other players have continued to play at far more physical positions where the risk of smacking helmets is almost 100%. Not saying it's the "right" choice but it's his identity and his career. I wouldn't be able to walk away and would have to be told no by the team and league, which is not going to happen for obvious reasons.

The pandemic taught companies of all types that people will pay a lot more than they thought for things they really want.

Something I haven't seen mentioned is that it's not impossible that Tua took a few hits earlier in the game or even the Jaguars game that had dinged him up enough that one seemingly routine play out him over the edge. That's what I would be concerned about. 2/3 of the plays that he suffered diagnosed concussions did not appear to be particularly hard hits. The Bengals game one he was ragdolled. But other than that, were talking about routine football plays

I thought of that too .. Rodgers had issues with his calf all summer before week 1 last year

I feel bad for Tua. He seems like an awesome guy and you hate to see him get yet another concussion.

DBs are doing a great job fighting through the blocks

Pegula looks like Buddy Nix

Awesome play call! Michaels almost lost his mind on the TD call

Battle has been joined

I hope the Browns are stuck with that contract for multiple years still as it looks like they are I don't want to see them get a solid QB because they would be a top contender. Watson holds them back capwise and on the field, and they deserve every bit of it

The funny thing is what is the difference? The Jets were prepared for CMC but totally rattled when this dude showed up on the field?

CMC has a calf/Achilles injury. That sounds like trouble

Rodgers passes have looked right on the money for the most part 49ers are just everywhere on D

Rodgers just said we have 2 plays
