ESPN had the Pat*s at #1 last week? Heck, even 2 THIS week is a bit high with the Steelers , Rams and Vikings playing well and the Chiefs back on track . . . . Yet another reason i pay very little attention to them . . . And some pinhead from SI put the Bills at 18??? Why am i torturing myself with this? As someone said in another thread, the NFL has their own Power Rankings. They're called standings. Moving on . . .

I spent a month in Escanaba one week. Funny story. I flew into Green Bay and then drove up. I passed quite a few places offering "pasties" which to my knowledge are small disks used to cover nipples. I'm thinking - what the hell is going on up here that i've driven past a dozen places selling nipple covers???!!! Turns out they are pronounced past-eez, and they are small pies filled with meat and parsnips (google says rutabaga) that must be eaten with loads of ketchup. I was underwhelmed by them. They come in a half-moon shape, and the reason is so they would fit comfortably in the arm pit of miners to keep warm 'til lunch. That could only enhance the flavor of the pasties . . .

Definately. Its rediculous how bad it gets.

Free bird And Magic Power by Triumph - love that song but not even close to that range. And anyone who has ever seen/heard the version of YYZ from Rush in Rio knows that you can definitely sing along.

oh come on! BB saw this as a chance to screw a divisional rival as well

A) the number of commercial breaks/length of game. everything is a reason for a TV timeout it's annoying. B) Officiating is atrocious, and blatantly biased towards bigger markets/better draws. I've said for years that the WWE has better officiating than does the NFL.

Why is MMQB's talking point about McD "obnoxious" about turnovers. Should he not be that?

Same here, and yet I'm astonished at the number of former class mates who turned out to be gay. Not that there's anything wrong with that. I mean a few were/are obvious, but there are quite a few headscratchers - going both ways (if you know what i mean). I think i took 3 showers the entire 4 years of HS. A lot of my friends went to Cheektowaga HS (78-82) and they had to swim naked and to a man, they ALL hated it.

i'm loving this . . . i hate to bring bad karma, but this dude deserves everything he's getting today. LOL

Amazing to see what competent coaching can do for a talented team.

well said Pooj...

Wow, if SBNation has removed Brady's and Belichick's balls from their mouths, what's next? Peter King? ESPN?

Lions played ATL tough and went from 12 to 9 . . . Hope springs eternal.

well said. think about this team in 2 years with 2 quality draft classes.

Really? these are the two guys that put the Bills over the top? You're reading too much Peter King . . .

Help me find my Cadillac, MotherF***er and we'll drive outta here!

Wow. We truly have nothing left to B*tch about with this team.

Smith put up 368. Gilmore "shut down" his guy similar to the way he did here in Buffalo.

BB wanted to win now, so he gives up draft picks to stock his current roster to get a shot at another ring. I would LOVE it if they limp to 8-8 or worse AND they mortgaged the future. Karma MF'er.

KC suffered a couple of key injuries as well, so . . . .

I'm coming in for a family function and won't be available to attend in person. Been to plenty o' home games in my time... And a) lighten up folks b) I must be living under a rock or something. how the heck did i miss them lifting the 72 hour blackout rule?

GTFO! When did that start? Living in the Philly area, i really don't care if the Iggles are on, so I haven't paid any attention.

Is the opener a sell-out? Will it be shown on local TV? I'll actually be in Buffalo this weekend, so my Sunday Ticket won't come in to play. Any insight is greatly appreciated.

Desperate times call for desperate measures.
