A win is a win but Detroit deserved that one. Fuck you Tucker.

Since I said Chiefs and Steelers looked like the best potential AFC teams, they're both 0-2. You're all welcome for that I guess.

...Chiefs will almost certainly be fine, but the Steelers, OOF.



Every season the same thing with the Falcons. I am so tempted to pick them so that they lose more.

Edit: PITs loss was unsurprising due to the injuries.



Well, my cousin (A Chargers fan) is a happy camper right now.



12-2 week so far. Pretty spicy. Per usual, fuck the Steelers, but I am always happy to be wrong about KC winning.



Around the Network

I'm so happy KC lost. That fanbase has become a toxic bunch. And yes, I'm generalizing. The only fanbase I hate more than KC's are the spoiled Colts fans. I'm glad they lost too.

At this point, Ben needs to get benched, not because there are better options, but because he has no help on the offensive line and rushing game. They are making that old man work.

I'm glad the vikings got a win. I think it's easy to forget how well they have been playing despite their record.

I'm done trying to figure who the Saints are.

I'm shocked so many people chose the Giants to win this week. I've been watching the Giants closely since off season. They are dysfunctional. And I know a lot about dysfunction. They genuinely remind me of the dysfunction the Browns had pre 2020. While my predictions are nothing to boost about this week. I had no doubt in my mind the Giants would find a way to lose to the Falcons.

For once I checked my predictions and to my surprise Rol messed up my NO-NE pick.

I definitely picked NO, so no more hero pick there.

Guess I should check more often.

This caps what has been a terrible week for me. Not regarding my picks in the prediction league, but in general.

Sorry to hear that, hope you feel better.

At least the Packers won a tight game against a competent team.



Whoever picked the Pack should get double points tbh. They had to play and beat both the Niners and the refs last night.

But yeah, Jimmy G is definitely gone after this year, hell, I wouldn't put it past them to start Trey at some point during the season. Refs spotted them 14 points and they STILL found a way to lose. At home, no less.

But seeing the Bucs get thrashed yesterday was music to my ears.

I put that more on the coach than the QB.  Garoppolo gave them a lead with 37 seconds left, and they couldn't execute a better defensive scheme for 2 plays than "everybody play deep prevent but let Davante Adams run around the middle of the field wide open"?  Garoppolo is in the top half of the league in both rating (101.2), and QBR (56.2).  Meanwhile, a Kyle Shanahan coached team fails to protect a 4th quarter lead, where have I seen that movie before?
