Around the League Week 5

Recommended Posts

Chance to watch a lot more teams and other games today.

 

Came away thinking perhaps we B word too much about our Bills.

 

Saw more than enough sketch QB plays from notables around the league and porous defenses from teams that have offensive punch but lack balance, or great defensive efforts wasted on lackluster offenses.

 

It's a matchup league, but with so many rookies and retread QBs behind center it is hard to gage the strength of many teams including ours.

 

Arizona looked beatable facing a rookie QB in SF Lance. Murray is far less accurate having to operate in the pocket than when he gets outside... still ridiculously quick on draws and such but credit the Niner defense for keeping them in the game so long.

 

Good test today with two established clubs in the Bills and KC.

I was on the Chargers bandwagon before thexseason started but I did not see them having this potent an offense nor did I see their defense giving up 40+ points to Cleveland. 

LA may have two of the top 5 teams in the league

 

Yea I thought the Chargers were a playoff team but a year away from being a possible Superbowl team. I now think they are in the AFC Superbowl bubble and they have beaten two of the other 3 I have in there - KC and Cleveland. Luckily we don't play them this year. We might not next either if KC wins their division.

It's a bit cliche, but they are the Bills of 2020. I don't know their schedule but no reason they can't win the division over KC if they keep playing well. Already have a road win over KC

I mean I wouldn't go that far...but clearly a great QB is going to have more to do with winning than a great coach...


I’m not saying he’s incompetent. He’s good, but he’s a just little above average. Not HOF material. But hey, maybe all coaches are average until they latch on to a franchise QB.

What HOF coach didn't have a great QB, or in some cases multiple great QBs?

Well, congrats... you'll have two ugly losses against us to look forward too. So nice the shoe is on the other foot now after nearly two decades!

Most likely! But don’t get to cocky a long time till those games and so much can change between now and then.

Here we go! Jets and Falcons from London. 
 

 


I was at this game yesterday and it won’t surprise anyone to know both teams are absolute pap. 
 

It wouldn’t be a shock to me if we shut the Jets out twice.

Win yes, shut out? That’s hard to do twice to the same team in the same year especially a division for not matter how sad they are.
