I'm imagining his mom in the stands right now. And not cool with that.

I know it's early, but it's really messing with me to see the Jets on here. I don't expect them to make the playoffs this season, but I love the way they are trending.

If the regular season ended today, here's what the playoff picture would look like. 👀 pic.twitter.com/zUSOjEzUJR

Send both of these teams to Europe as punishment. 

Justin Fields is a running back.

No kidding. I thought TD all the way. I did not see the bobble at all.

Lol

The Jets smoking the Packers at Lambeau was not something I was expecting.

Well, I was done in my survivor pool a few weeks ago [seriously - no bullshit]...but hard to imagine anyone is still left.

The Browns sucked today - nothing new there.

But I was in a BW3 today with all the games on.  I cannot understand how anyone prefers the NFL to college.  NFL games on average are straight up boring as hell.  Not one game appears all that different from any other.  The offenses all look the exact same.  Boring, boring, boring.  

By contrast, my team wasn’t playing yesterday.  Yet I saw most of three games where I had no rooting stake that were light years more interesting and exiting than anything on today - or any other Sunday this year.

Here I am thinking the exact opposite. Lol

A good game is a good game. Both can be great and both can be meh. College has so many more teams to choose from and there aren’t a huge number of NFL teams I enjoy watching.

Early on the NFL games haven’t been as good as I hope going in. Some of the thought to be good teams are 2-4 or 3-3 and not playing like many think they should while several of the hit teams in the nfl are teams we expect to go 6-11 and we don’t trust them yet.

I don’t need a 44-41 college game to enjoy it and a 17-13 NFsl game can be great….but so far what I’ve watched college has has a greater % of good games.

Holy shit what a kick.

Balls are filled with helium or something. I’ve seen 5 different kickers this year blasting 57-62 yard FG that would’ve been good from 70.

Josh Allen is absurd.

Yeah Allen is must watch

His arm strength…his touch on the deep balls. The rockets he fires into tight spaces 10-30 yards downfield. His speed…his power.

Mahomes has better feet and ad lib…but Allen is the top QB to me (he does have receivers who catch everything…which helps)

What an awful decision and play by Lamar late in that game.

I think Turpin is going to make my NFL 4x100 team
