Around the League week 6

[Brianmoorman4jesus]

Man I love the 9:30 games. I wish there was one every week

Tua looks good on this first drive.  
 

Im kind of at the point where I want him to be good enough that they don’t get any off-season thoughts of trading for Watson, although they’d have an absolutely terrible team around Deshaun with his cap hit and the draft picks they’d be giving up. 

[Playoffs?]

Looks like a new Tua.  That, or it’s that he’s playing against Jax.

I'd say he is looking accurate and in control of the O, but, man, that pass along the sidelines to Waddle took centuries to get there! I guess we get spoiled watching Josh sling lasers all over the field.

Nice drive to be fair. Thought Tua did a nice job there.

[stosh64]

Have to say, that was a nice drive by Tua!

[wjag]

Is Miami good or is Jax bad?

[DCbillsfan]

So far, Tua has had time to throw

[TheBrownBear]

Tua looking good!

[GunnerBill]

I also counted 3 call outs for the tackles from Kevin Harlan. It really irritates me about him.

Putting Eich at tackle and moving Jackson (who has been a disaster there) was a good move.

Harlan is one of the best in the biz, IMO

I’m heading to Jacksonville in two weeks with 19 friends (we do an away game every year; already did Nashville). If we don’t put up 75 against that dumpster fire defense, I’ll be surprised.

I know a lot of folks like him. I don't.

Jaelen Phillips wishes he was Greg Rousseau

I’m confused by these London games. What’s the end game for the NFL? European expansion? I knew the guy who was the first commissioner of the North American Soccer League, he once told me it takes three generations of kids playing a sport before it will become mainstream. How many kids play American football in Europe?

In the UK the answer is many more than did when the international series started. 

[ROCBillsBeliever]

I didn't realize that both Howard and Jones are out. I mean, Jax should have a chance with those guys out.

[TheBrownBear]

Trevor looking good too, lol.  Guess that's what happens when you have two miserable defenses out there.

[SCBills]

Brutal drop

Poland and Germany have had home grown, semipro leagues for a while.
