Oh it's gold. Gold I tell ya!

24-0?

Impressive.



Wouldn't it be cool if I was still posting in that thread under my other name though..........hmm,. Who are you accusing this week of being the famous Voice? So far I believe ya incorrectly, or correctly, pegged me as 2 to 3 other OCers?

Surprised you are not blacked out yet but then again who can tell the difference with you?

Tough one for the browns today. The positive is they outscored the bengals in the 4th and I think they will use that as a springboard to next week and pull out a solid win.

They are the best 0-4 team in league history

Good job by the Steelers to whip Baltimore's ass. Wasn't sure how the game would go since it was on the road and both teams came off embarrassments last week. Way things are in the division, if they can just play consistently (ie: no getting beat by horrible Chicago-esque teams), they could win the division easily, since no one else seems better than meh.

Everyone seems to have their team they irrationally hate and mine may be the Cardinals. They just lost to the 49ers at home, their best player is hurt, and Carson Palmer fucking sucks.

So do we know anything more than the Browns are bad. Other teams are likely bad and some are likely good with others looking good.....but games have very much been a crapshoot so far.

Whoops. I saw San Fran kicked the FG in overtime and thought that was the end of it.

You are right though for hating the Cardinals.

I do strangely hate the Dolphins...I think because they are always near that last WC berth and I never believe they are any damn good

Great, great win. I always chalk up the game in Balt as a L.

What was up qith AB little birch fit? Got espn update on it but I did not hear them mention it on the radio telecast or post game interview.

Sounda like a very selfish moment on his part. Ducking primadonna, or is it...pre madonna?


I'll take 3 and 1 in every qtr of the season anytime

Was wide open streaking deep on a play that an announcer said was designed to him and Ben didn't go to him, but overthrew Bell, who I think was covered. As erratic as the offense has been so far this season, I definitely can get him being pissed. That play was just a symbol of everyone not being on the same page, which is why an offense with a lot of high-level playmakers hasn't been scoring or moving the ball as consistently as I expected.

I actually like the Cards but I can’t fucking stand Palmer. Dude has always been a bum.

Got it. Still hate it though. Does BR go all apeshit when AB runs a wrong route or drops a pass? Does AB get mad when he gets a pass while in triple coverage or when he wasn't the primary or secondary?

I presume he has the most check-with-me routes on the team and maybe in the league. He needs to not be such a selfish SOB.

Luckily they won or this coulda blown up big time. I imagine ESPN is showing this every few minutes

All in all being 3 and 1, with Bell getting the rust off from his selfish holdout, the offense not clicking yet and a win in a place they rarely get one and I'm satisfied with it. Could be 4 and 0 but we all know Tomlin led teams have motivational issues against shitty teams especially on the road.


I woild admit it is as weak of a 3 and 1 start as one can have but there are no style points in the NFL

You are over blowing the AB mini fit. Just like NBC did. Showed highlights of game and didn't show incredible Shazier plays or Bell and his 180 yards....but showed that. It was 1 play early on way before game was in hand. He was showing fire. It was against the Ratburds. They were over it immediately. It was too much by AB but it's over without any harm. Ben and AB are good. This was Bell's week.

Like I said, I haven't seen it. Figured it was overblown as no one even asked MT about it in the post game.

Don't mind the Chiefs, just gonna come crashing back down to earth.

Assuming they lose:
Is there a favorite team right now in the NFL?

How can you assume a loss?

I want to do a power rankings but seems impossible thus far
