Well the Titans just fucked that up

What exactly did they do, other than failing on the 2PC?


Just watch it.



                            

Cardinals on pace for 80 points at current levels lol.

The poor guy got chased by five Colts. Almost as bad as you picking the 49ers. What were you thinking?!

He's British. Cut him some slack.

The rams defense must be something else if the Steelers could only score 12 points. 

Ben Rothlisberger was 20/24 for 194 yards 1 INT before he was taken out of the game due to a left knee injury. Don't put too much stock in the Rams defense, their defensive line is the only good part of their D. All that said, I really hope Big Ben is going to be okay. Reports are saying he suffered a left knee injury and no word on how severe it is. Rothlisberger has had a fair share of injuries in his career, but none of them knee-related (most of them have been shoulder and ankle injuries). Plenty to discuss tomorrow...

Also, Baltimore goes 0-3 for the first time in franchise history. 
Welp

I was about to say the same thing.

Shame



                            

Maybe this is an overreaction, but is it possible the Dolphins' defense has actually gotten worse with Ndomican'tspellthis Suh in the lineup? Washington and Jacksonville absolutely had their way with them at times, and Buffalo's running all over that vaunted line right now.

I think it's definitely possible. Sometimes guys will play worse if the chemistry is bad, or they think the guy next to him will just handle everything near him.

Ideally Suh will stuff the center of the line and draw double teams at times. He's not terribly fast by any means, but historically he's extremely good at shutting down the immediate vicinity to him, freeing the DEs to do work.

I haven't watched a single snap of them this year, so I have no idea if Suh all of a sudden forgot how to football, but just guessing I would say it's chemistry/performance oriented.

I think he's kind of a jerk, so I'm not sorry to see him have a slow start.



So I guess I can't use "you belong in the NFC South" as an insult for the time being. I guess I'll have to use "you belong on the Ravens" for now.

HA true. And how about those Raiders? Crazy year so far.

I just hope my Cowboys can play a healthy game or three later in the year. Never in my life have I seen a team lose or have unavailable :

QB1 (Romo)

WR1 (Dez)

DE1, DE2, DE3 (Hardy, Gregory, Mincey)

DL1 (T McClain)

LB1 (R McClain)

CB-Slot1 (Scandrick)

And some more various bang-ups like Witten, Hayden, etc.

All in the first two or three weeks. It's staggering and beyond anything I've seen before. Pick any team and take out that list of players and things look .. well, grim.
