Staley is a fool  when he did not run the ball from first and goal and settled for three

He was also running hurry up.  Why run hurry up in that situation.

 

Chargers are just a dumb team.

Chargers/Dolphins and Eagles/Pats are both big coaching mismatches. That's the main reason for their current scores.

 

We've actually done a pretty good job of slowing down Tyreek Hill since McDermott took over. The Chargers staff doesn't have a clue.

Nice game Bosa 🙄

Staley is a bad head coach, and Herbert, for all his arm talent, doesn't have IT.

 

It feels like Herbert has gone backwards since being drafted. Started strong and has slowly slipped.

Intentional grounding and not even throwing the ball for two downs. Where did the Allen comparisons come from?

My goodness the Eagles are overrated. 

I don’t know, a road win is always a good win. I can see them falling this year, but Belichick has a history of making offenses look bad.

I love the Saints glad they won

[ROCBillsBeliever]

Why'd the Chargers have to ruin an otherwise fantastic day of football? Come on, guys! 

[PatsFanNH]

Boutte hurt the Pats today, he has to learn to put both feet in. Pats D played lights out most of the game only giving up 12 points.. (I blame the O for 13 of the points) Jones bounced back after a HORRID 1st Quarter and put up some nice numbers and made throws when he had to. (He also got away with a few bone head throws as well) overall I think they would have won today if Parker was playing instead of Boutte. 
 

Good luck tomorrow Bills fans!

I'm still slightly dismayed at how quickly the rest of the AFC East recovered - well, the Dolphins and Jets anyway. The Patriots had years of average opposition in the division; the Bills maybe got a couple?

Yeah, but this is actually how it’s supposed to work. Pathetic that the AFCE collectively couldn’t put anything together for the better part of two decades. 

[Low Positive]

Mack and Bosa and the Chargers didn’t lay a finger on Tua.

[Steptide]

Well, now time to watch the new jersey bills 

[Mark Vader]

The Bills will just have to take care of business on their own.....starting tomorrow.

 

GO BILLS!!!

[Success]

Without doubt - one of my new fave things is Pats fans declaring moral victories.

With Armstead out. WTF. I'd want my money back

Lot of former players to root for, former OC to root for, and ***** the Cowboys.

Is it a good/funny thing that this game gave them hope or just obnoxious.

I don't want to hear Herbert in the top 5 QB discussion again. Dude showed time and again he has no pocket awareness. Yea, he can make throws but he's a deer in the headlights. 

It’s plays like that intentional grounding that just leaves me scratching my head with that guy.

 

He can make all the throws and he’s got all the tools, but he just seems to do a few dumb plays each game that kills the team

The Chargers defense sucks.  In fact, their coaching in general sucks.  They are going nowhere.  The Miami offense was literally playing against air all day.  Horrible effort by LA.

[BillsPride12]

How did Tremaine Edmunds look today?  I was hoping to get a chance to watch more of the Bears-Packers game but only saw a couple series.  I did see Tremaine blow up a running play in that short time but looks like the Bears D got carved up

AFC east is not going to be a cake walk this year 

 

I came away with the same thoughts watching AFC East teams - no cake-walks.

Chargers had no answers for Hill and that was that... Belicheat can still coach and drag just about any team down to the wire... Allen has had NE's number for the past few years, but the rest of the league will learn you have to keep your foot on the throat of a Belichick team till the final whistle - they are like the living dead.

 

I expect the Jets will be tough too.

 

And the darlings of the AFC - the Chiefs and Bengals both crapped the bed. You just never know till the games are played, but just because teams start the season strong does not mean they wont finish with a whimper.
