These don't appear to be the same Bengals. Yes, they still need to do it in the playoffs, but what I saw today, to comeback like that against the LOB? I'm optimistic. Dalton has really taken the leap and the team is more resilient. Last year, that 24-7 deficit would have led to a 38-14 loss where everything fell apart.

That said, Patriots look like the best team in the league. Only the Packers can legit challenge that. Bengals/Falcons have a couple glaring weaknesses holding them back from legit Super Bowl talk.

Todd Gurley's a monster.

Eli Manning may go down as one of the more underrated QBs to ever play the game. Dude's clutch factor may be second to none.

If Seattle wants their Graham trade to work, they have to completely change their offensive philosophy. Thus, that trade won't work. Seattle's O-line flashed today though, there's cause for cautious optimism for Seahawks fans.

- I rate the Falcons higher than the Bengals, cause the Bengals still have to prove it in the playoffs, even with that great comeback win
- Texans fukking suck, and I'm sick of McNair and Rick Smith doing just enough to not completely alienate the entire fanbase. Get them a fukking quarterback, and some nasty dudes on defense other than Watt.
- Injuries aside, everybody makes the Cowboys Stadium their own, and would have happened one way or another. Dallas just held off long enough early to make you feel like there was hope.

bengals are looking legit like usual as are the Falcons. Both have high choke history so we'll see

Ravens are to up to par

Sad about Charles. Chief tank season has begun

Add on
Mmm the falcon could very well have lost to the skins today if Kirk didn't give the game away . They don't look legit at all :smh:

overpay a flabby washed up wilfork brehs.

I doubt if Hopkins stays in Houston.

Wilfork's actually played well. Before this past game, the defense's problem was being left on the field too long due to the offense's ineptitude. Thursday's game was just a perfect storm of everything going wrong for the defense, mostly self-inflicted penalties.
