Anyone know how to catch different games than what my YouTubeTV is giving me? I wanna see how Mitch does in Pittsburgh and I kinda like that Joey B. But I only have a choice of either Eagles vs Lions or Phins vs Pats at 1. I tried using a VPN but I dunno if that's gonna work. Any tips are appreciated. 

NFL+ is probably your best paid option but that's only on mobile.

This is going to be tough, I can't decide who I want to lose more, Pats or Phins. I think I'll go with the Phins 

[BritBill]

My first early games Redzone TD bet of the year. I choose a TE, QB and D all to score in a treble. 

 

All to score a TD anytime:

 

TJ Hockenson

Baker Mayfield

Ravens D

Bills already took care of week 1 and now we get to sit back and watch what every other team is going to put up.

 

I am excited to watch Dolphins vs Patriots just b.c no matter what one of those teams is going to lose the game and they might both look horrible doing it. WIN/WIN

 

 

 

My predictions for winners this week:

Steelers

Eagles

Colts

Falcons

Ravens

Pats

Panthers

49ers

Jags

Raiders

Titans

Chiefs

Vikings

Cowboys

Broncos

 

 

I'll check back later to see how wrong I am

I hate myself for saying this as it’ll mean the Patriots win but I want the Dolphins to lose. It’ll really demoralise their fan base very early on in the season. Even more so if Tua has a nightmare.

Yeah it’s tough. I hate the idea of fins fans getting cocky about their new offense right out the gate, but Pats fans also deserve only abject misery for years to come. 
 

So I think I’ll go with a fins win where both qb’s look dreadful. Or maybe a 10-10 tie game, that sounds good!

I'm actually interested in the NFL+ Prime deal.

 

I actually like when they do the big packages with other providers.  Hulu + Espn+ + Disney+.  $22/mon vs probably $40-45 to purchase them individually.  JMO.

NFL Week 1 QB talk: Josh Allen set the tone. Now, it's up to others to show what they've got.

Quote

 

The NFL wanted Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen to open the season for a reason.

And he delivered.  

Allen threw three touchdowns and ran for another in the Bills' 31-10 rout of the defending Super Bowl champion Los Angeles Rams to kick off Week 1 of the 2022 NFL season.

 

anyone buying this?

 

Mahomes Burrow etc need to prove it?

Quote

With no Tyreek Hill, Mahomes is out to prove he is still better than Allen

You can find everything for free that the + offers

I could use a little help as well. Who would your start?

1) KC RB Clyde Edwards Hillaire or JAX RB James Robinson?

2) KC WR Marquez Valdez-Scantling or LV WR Hunter Renfrow?

 

I don’t like CEH as a whole this season, but Robinson may be risky first game back from the injury. That’s a tough one. 

 

PPR league? Then Renfrow all the way. MVS is probably pretty boom or bust. I don’t have a good read on how that WR room will shake out. 

 

FWIW I drafted both Renfrow and Robinson across my leagues and had no plan to take either CEH or MVS. The only Chief I ended up taking was Pacheco because I think he’ll take over that backfield at some point.

I hope Baker lights up Cleveland.

Apparent miles Garrett hated him when he was in Cleveland so could be interesting for panthers rookie LT

I'd love to have the Dolphins face us at 2-0 only to get stomped week 3. I have no faith the Patriots at all. They are a candidate for the top draft pick.

[Miyagi-Do Karate]

I actually think the road team is going to win most of these games today.
 

I also am looking for a major regression from the bengals and the Steelers being a sneaky winner today.

Then we might actually have a problem with the Pats again. Bryce Young is 10x the QB Mac is

The Bengals improved that OL immensely but their corners are still soft. Be interesting to see how they come out of the gate.

Agreed. I am really looking forward to seeing this bengals team. Again, maybe it is sour grapes from last year, but I just have this gut feeling that they will regress even with the new oline.

Nah 0-2 or 1-1 works the same.

[EersN'Bills]

Pats/Phins is going to be interesting.

 

Phins are better on paper, but BB vs Rookie Coaches is usually a bet in the Pats favor. Especially considering this is McDaniel's first ever game as an HC.

Wake me up when it’s September 19th

Man, it's going to be a long wait.

 

It's the price we pay for getting them so quickly at the start, I guess.
