    The Seahawks have absolutely no help for Wilson from anyone on their roster except for Doug Baldwin. Even the defense is playing like shit.

    Wilson is 23/40 for 311 and three touchdowns. And their defense has gotten abused.

    That Titans offensive line absolutely moooves people. DeMarco Murray is the perfect runningback for that system.

    The Chiefs finally look human today, although they're en route to be 3-0 if they hold on. Rivers did himself no favors with three bad early interceptions.

    Rodgers really loves those free plays.

    Bengals, Browns, and Chargers look like teams that will always find a way to lose.

    Even if it wasn't a TD there is no way the replay I saw conclusively showed the defender touched him. And the rule is insanity. But what do you expect from the league which has convoluted the simple concept of a catch.

    They also called it a touchdown on the field. Which is why they shouldn't have overturned it regardless.

    They need to get rid of that ten second runoff rule. As you said. Insanity.

    Redskins look good so far. The NFC East is really up for grabs now that the consensus Super Bowl pick of the Giants are already 0-3.

    The guy on NFL Red Zone said something to that tune. That we're just here for football and not the extra curricular nonsense.

    I can't blame them though. It's the biggest story in all of sports right now.

    Carr is trying to match what Flacco did earlier.

    I guess the Giants are sucking for Sam!

    Yeah, I was super pissed about the Lions game. I picked em for the upset to win straight up in my office pick em league with no spread. The replay center has been very inconsistent. They were pretty much letting every close call on the field stand and only overturning the obvious ones, I was REALLY surprised they over turned that one and then ran the clock off. Sometimes the rules just make me go WTF. Central replay is supposed to make it better, but thus far it's been worse.

    I think Flacco flew from London to DC after the game today and then put on Carr's uniform.

    Carr is probably tied up in the trunk of a car somewhere.

    Idiot Cousins wastes enough time that the officials get a chance to call for a review of ridiculously favorable challenge, thereby costing them a first down. Moron.

    I just re-watched Tom Cheats game winner to Brandin Cooks. Hard to see from that angle, and maybe it's just me, but it looked like an INC pass/ball hit the ground before he had control of it. I'll have to look at it again. Not that it matters, but I'm really surprised this wasn't up for review and that they only showed one angle. Well, it is the Cheats s-o-o-o-o . . . Mmmph.

    Just turned the game on 15 mins ago. Washington looking like world beaters vs. Oakland. How does that happen.

    Washington 3rd and 19, looks like they're punting to Oakland

    Oakland down 14

    then Cousins throws a screen to Thompson for 74 yards

    Game over

    The Oakland offense looks shockingly bad.

    Defense looks pretty bad also, by the way.

    No dancing for Marshawn today.

    I can't believe Collinsworth sometimes. He just excused Richard Sherman for acting like a jerk "because of what was going on in the league, Trump, the protests . . . " What? Saw the three successive penalties. Sherman should've been ejected. End of story.

    Zach Brown was a man among boys from the linebacker spot tonight against the Raiders. He's on his third team in three years, but the guy can tackle and hit for sure.

    He could be worth a look for us next year.

    On the Giants, both Ryan Ramczyk and Cam Robinson have been first week first year starters a team left tackle for the Saints and Jaguars.

    I can't comment on how well they've played, but I do imagine they've been better than Ereck Flowers.

    I bet they're glad they took a damn receiving non blocking tightend. What was Jerry Reese thinking?!

    Sherman tried to defend himself saying it shouldn't have been a penalty because he plays to the whistle and Mariota was still inbounds.
    Except for the fact he was one step out of bounds when still a yard away.
