Around the NFL Week 3

[NyQuil]

Also, any potential threat to the #1 seed losing is a good thing.

I’m OK with it. LOL

Defender spun receiver after ball had passed by them, imo.  Good coverage.

Huge win for Indy. Bad losses for Balt, Den, Tenn and Jax.

 

Lets go Bears

Baltimore got screwed on that no call DPI

[HappyDays]

As much as I hate seeing the Dolphins score that many points, it's almost worth it to see Sean Payton get totally embarrassed.

I've said it and got bashed for years now.  Jackson is not a good passing QB

I don’t think you’re the only one 😆 

[Scott7975]

What happened to Carr?

[Success]

Was "Payton is a good coach" a mirage?  Does he get inordinate credit because of that onside kick & SB win?

 

Kind of reminds me of how Fisher sustained a career on one close SB.

A vet QB shouldn't throw the ball only were the receiver can catch it and then have it bounce off of the receiver to get caught by the defense?

 

That's more of a receiver issue than a QB issue.

I’m not even talking about the interception.  My point is Cousins should have spiked the ball before that play even occurred. Heck, due to the clock still running they rushed to get the play off. That’s on Cousins.

I'm never OK with egregious officiating. Their job is not hard, despite the political coach-speak, and they ruin games far too often.

Honestly, the only replay they kept showing was from behind the receiver, and I could not tell when the contact was initiated, and how bad it was. Was very surprised that they didn’t have another angle, since you know, they have about 8 cameras at these games.

Wild weekend.

 

Bills defensive domination, Herbert goes 40/47 405 yards and 3 TDs, Matt Gay 5/5 4 of them from 50+, Keenan Allen 200 yards receiving, MIAMI...

Missed that. I agree. He should have spiked it. The play was fine IMO though.

What is wrong with Jacksonville?

I've been on that train for years now. He had a great year in the Katrina aftermath. 

 

But look what he did in all those years with a prime Brees, good to great WRs, decent rosters. The guy is so overblown. 

 

He took Nate Hackett's team...and made it worse. 

[Low Positive]

When looking at that Miami score, don’t forget that the Broncos gave up 36 points at home to the team that we just shut out.

Division game. Texans always play him tough.

[Scott7975]

Meanwhile Edmonds still terrible

I honestly haven't really watched them this year, but every time I watched them last year I thought Trevor Lawrence was one of the most overhyped players in the league. Too many mistakes, not nearly the generational prospect that everyone made him out to be.

In one game, they scored more points than 23 other teams have for the year so far. 

 

And they got within striking distance of 4 others.

 

Ravens - 71 points 

Lions - 72 points 

Browns - 73 points

Colts - 74 points 

 

Miami now has 130 points through 3 games, good for 1st place. The Bills are 2nd place, with 91 points 😅

- He’s not the DC

- He had a hall of fame QB for 15 years

 

He took a year or two off. We’ll see in three years if this was a Broncos bust

I was just thinking the same watching Chi-KC, so glad we didn't pay him and that we have Bernard!
