SMF and LAX to VA and NC
AFC
•Raiders are real. It's only two weeks in but date I say Carr, in Y8, is finally rounding into his apex. He's looking like an MVP candidate---->the thing to watch for LV is how they play the last 4-6 weeks of the year, but the '21 Raiders just feel different. Dark horse threat!

•Lamar is still overrated, and that Ravens defense is too...

•Texans aren't complete trash...

•Steelers loyalty to Ben could cost them dearly, and I'm a Ben Stan. Should have made the play for Fields to be groomed behind him...

Tomlin is also back on the clock with me. This is a playoff caliber roster. Anything short of it and it's time to send him back to Va...

•gotta admit, pretty surprised how poised and well Mac Jones is playing. Only two weeks I but I'm quite surprised. Patriots still have an elite D too...

•Tua just isn't that guy, and the Fina ceiling will likely never be realized if he's Your Guy under center. Miami needs to sell whatever possible for Watson like yesterday!

•Cracker Mahomes and Chiefs still overrated and can't wait to see them get eliminated in the AFC bracket!

•Titans defense improving, and we showed real resolve coming back in Seattle. And Derrick Henry is an All-Time great running back. I said it last year and it's worth repeating, only in Y6 we are all watching one of the greatest backs to lace them cleats...

•watch for a sophomore slump with Burrow, not saying it will happen but it shouldn't be unexpected especially given he's coming off that injury!

•give all rookies time to grow but Wilson certainly looks like a serious reach...

•I've defended Wentz but he's on The Clock. Nothing pleases me more than watching Dolts, Niners, or Giants suck ass, but thats a good team in Indy. If Wentz is That Guy, he's still got time to show it but he better, his first two games are hilariously unimpressive...

NFC
not impressed by the Santa Clara Niners...

•am impressed by that Panthers D and discipline so far...

•Washington is just one QB away. Our defense will round into form, but we're winning this gotdamn division...

•Fields ain't ready but this probably isn't the last time Dalton is out with injury this year, he'll have his turn...

•still not impressed with Kyler...

•Tampa is gonna be a tough, tough out. Most well rounded team in football...

•not impressed with Stat Padford and the praise he's getting for just winning two games. He inherited a perennial playoff team only 3 years removed from the Super Bowl. Guy has a 5k season under his belt, we know he has the talent. Talk to me when he's in the playoffs...

•Saints go from impressive to bust in one week, hold on them...

•still hoping Hawks can win another before Pete leaves but it's same pattern evert year...

•always great watching Giants suck...

Hope Goff and Lions bust Fraudgers ass tonight!!

The Jets are well coached. Their run game was impressive and their D was inspired. If Wilson played more like a game manager they could have beaten NE.

Shouldn't have turned in when I did last night. That's classic Ravens: whenever they're counted out, they come out swinging, usually with some late-game dramatics. That's a huge psychological weight off their back, too.

(BTW, the Michael K. Williams tribute in the intro was :krs::wow::banderas:.)

Browns are legit, legit. Weird to say after beating HOU, but that's a game they'd have a major letdown for in years past. They're actually winning the games they're supposed to win now.

Not ready to say Sam Darnold's gonna be the one to reverse the USC QB jinx, but he's off to a good start, no doubt.

Urban Meyer already looks miserable. I don't think he'll Petrino the Jags, though; his ego's too big. He'll stick it out for the season. Beyond that, all bets are off.

Nice win for the 49ers (glad I took them at -3.5 :scheme:). That was a classic trap game, but they did what they had to do. GB should be a good test for them next week.

People can say what they want but the Ravens scored 36 last night and have been one of the best offenses in the league since Lamar has been the full time guy

hopefully we don’t waste Kyle Pitts’ career here in ATL. Unimpressed with the decision making by the new HC

Rams v Tampa next week gonna tell me a lot about both teams

Colts look like dogshyt

how the fukk you throw a pick on a shovel pass dawg
I’m not really fukking with this team. Just bad vibes all around and reminds me of 2015 when Luck was running for his life behind that line. The off-season was already a fiasco.

Frank still has the same problems he’s had when he got here, and it’s never going to change.

I do find it fitting that the two teams who handled their vaccine situations the worst during the summer are sitting at 0-2. (Colts & Vikings)

Philly (BYRD GANG)
Eagles are young on offense and the coaching staff who is young as well (youngest in the league) will have to grow quick in the league. Easy game that was winnable that they lost.

Cowboys are frauds and refs still dikkeat the franchise because of the money they bring to the NFL

Justin Herbert will be the best QB in the league for a decade and years after

Klyer Murray want that MVP

At the same time though, both Burrow and Herbert came into the league with bad lines, and they STILL looked much better than Tua has so far.

Eye test dont lie :troll:


But on the real, so far the juice isnt worth the squeeze with Tua. Even if hes an above avg QB his health is concerning.
.




Flores is also proving why NFL teams don’t like to hire defensive minded head coaches


They went from Gailey last year :scust:

to promoting their TE and RB coaches to be co offensive coordinators this year :gucci:
