I was on the Packer bandwagon. I leaped off today. They have now lost to Cleveland and at home to Carolina. Inexcusable.

Somehow the Bengals defense is worse than it was last year. Might be the worst of all time.

Never even crosses Pete Carroll's mind to call a TO. Gets the ball back after Jax scores with 3:24 left in OT. Should have been 5:00+ if he had used his two TOs.

I've been watching the Packers lose the Browns game for 30years, something about them on the road vs crappy AFC teams. This one today though was a shocker.

Classic trap game before Philly.

Has any team had a kick return TD, a blocked FG, a recovered insides kick, a QB who threw for nearly 500 yards...and lost?

Definitely not.

I'll have to check - sounds very Cleveland-y.

I would suspect the record of teams recovering onside kicks is not great.
But ya it's hard to believe they're so bad. Defense usually has an element of randomness year over year, for most teams. They apparently hit on a good CB too and still..

Daniels uggh. Glad to see some people questioning What he's doing in the game. Always found it strange how widely accepted garbage time stat padding is but God forbid a Coach play starters for a Quarter in the Preseason, the whole football world has a meltdown. Dumb Group-think.

Once again jerry Darth leather face jones gets fleeced at the trade deadlines. Giving up two high picks for a team not good enough to compete. Smh

He's too busy in the oil and gas industry to care.

Tragic. Appears to be self inflicted.

Yup, last night/early this morning he got into a police chase. Police lost sight of him and called off the chase. A little further up they found his wrecked car in the road. He ran into the woods by the road and self inflicted unfortunately. Just sad

Fully expect Raiders to eventually lose this game but WTH is up with Denver and these slow starts

 

[kirbivore]

Holy Schnikes that 3rd and 1 failed trick play was the textbook definition of getting too cute. Of course Raiders throw a pick the very next play. I can’t wait to bet against Denver in January

If you figure it out, please text Sean. I can't believe how many people thought we were going to handle you guys. When asked my opinion this week, I asked them back; Have you watched the Broncos/Raiders or the AFC west in general the last few decades? Nope

Denver has played like a 3-5 team and yet is 8-2.

This isn’t true. They have a larger point differential than Philly, Green Bay, Detroit, LAC, Tampa and San Francisco. They’ve also won in Philly.

Game one. Tenn had chances to win and they are bad
Lost next 2.

Bengals they dominated when Browing was god awful

Eagles had no business winning down 17-3 late
Jets had chances to beat them in another dog fight with a terrible team
Giants gave them the game

Dominated the Cowboys

Had no business beating the Texans in a super ugly game
Had no business beating Vegas last night

the pts margin comes from winning the two dominant wins by 50.

Credit for winning ugly close games for sure.
