There isn’t a powerhouse in the AFC right now.

Didn’t a team with the same record beat the Bills less than a week ago? :gucci:
Last week’s game was disappointing. Bills got smacked in the mouth by Tennessee last year and I thought they would pull out with a statement W. Henry is just an awful match-up for them though.

Of course they will troll me now and lose to the Colts next week :mjgrin:
Not convinced Indy will get the job done but yeah, that sounds exactly like something the Titans would do based on history lol.

Pitts and chase might already be top 5 at their respective positions. Home run picks


Kyle Pitts is a nice receiving option but I don't know if I would call him a home run pick. Dude doesn't affect the game like that

It was a bad game with no receivers and a plethora of other injuries. They should have still won but let’s put it in context. Ravens needed literally the longest FG ever to beat a terrible Lions team, it happens.

If we docked the Patriots from Super Bowl contention every time they loss to a bad Miami late in the year during this their dynasty they probably shouldn’t have won any Super Bowls based on that logic.

My personal opinion is look how teams play against the teams they will meet in the playoffs, that’s what ultimately what matters at the end of the day.

Back to back wins against the Bills and Chiefs while being the MOST injured team in the NFL can not be understated :mjgrin:

Fair enough. I just can't buy into the Titans until they string together some better performances :yeshrug:

They got a big game against the Colts and then the Rams Sunday night next two weeks. If they split those (preferably a loss to the Rams) I’d be satisfied with that.Losing both would be disappointing though. Let’s see where they land.

A TE that’s able to beat the opponents best corner like pitts did on that last drive(Howard is a former all prob)while also being able to lineup inline and dominate the middle of the field is probably the most valuable skill player you can have

it’s a home rin

Doesn't change the course of the Falcons franchise like that :yeshrug:

Unless you’re getting a generational QB in the vein of like a Peyton Manning, singular draft picks hardly can ever singlehandedly change the direction of the team.

what Pitts will do if he stays on this track is become the foundation of a ready made offense for a new QB to step into.

Something needs to happen in Chicago, FAST. Fields might not even be they bad, but it's really hard to tell at this point because everything about the offense is garbage right now, from personnel, to coaching, to execution.

The Chiefs aren't cooked for this season, but this is definitely showing that you can only cover for iffy roster construction for so long. That defense needs rebuilt, the line clearly isn't good enough for Mahomes to have trust in them, and they have a bunch of WR that largely do the same thing. Hunter Renfroe would be a godsend for them. :mjlol:

The Bengals are showing how a rebuild goes under ideal circumstances. Seems like everyone from ownership on down is on the same page on what steps to take, and have improved rapidly because of it. But we gotta pump the breaks on calling them one of the top teams, though. This is clearly a fukkery Season, so they could end up looking like shyt next year.

How in the hell has jim nance called more tom brady nfc games than joe buck. Lol never heard jim sound more happier than when he speaks on brady

Combination of NBC and MLB obligations, for the most part.

The NFL recently loosened up the game assignments on their TV deals to let CBS take the occasional all NFC game/home NFC game, and Fox the opposite, since they have to take Ls on getting one of their best (and soon, probably their second best go ESPN) games. CBS jumped on this one in particular because they figured Brady would get his 600th TD pass, and wanted to have the audio of Nantz calling it.

The Ravens' D is alarmingly poor. Can't remember the last time, if ever, they were so soft. Outside of SD and Denver (who barely has an O), they've stopped no one. That's no shade at Chase, though...dude's the goods. Not looking forward to seeing him 2x/year.

I feel like the Chiefs are unintentionally trolling us...they don't look great now, but it feels it's just a matter of time before they rip off a 6 of 7, 7 of 8 run or something.

I just don't believe the Football Team is this bad. Still time to get into the playoff mix, but they better get moving. Same for the 49ers, but it's gonna be a little more uphill, given that division.

Not sure what to make of the Raiders...is this a dead cat bounce or something they can sustain? Still not ready to buy in just yet.

And going back to Thursday, nice win for the Browns, especially considering Mayfield and their 2 best RBs were out. Couldnt afford to lose that one. They're building a solid culture there under Stefanski.

Still came down to one play :yeshrug:. We ain't get ran out the stadium like the Queefs

But I learned that this year is no different than any other year. Got about 10 teams that could all make it to the SB at this point. Anybody can be beat
