Joe is looking very good. A dropped TD that the LB intercepted with his back to Burrow. Horrid play by TE...two other dropped passes a 5th header catches.
Holy Shit Aiyuk....play of the week
Weekly Sunday night thoughts. Not easy to do with two games tomorrow still and Steelers and Titans both off today.
Good: Seattle and Buffalo continuing to roll. I think Kansas City and Green Bay will join them at 4-0 tomorrow. Browns may have finally figured things out, and the Bengals figured things out for today anyways. AFC North best division? Think it’s between them and NFC West.
Bad: As I said last week, New York, yikes. Third straight week without a passing TD for Daniel Jones. So now what with Chicago? Foles looked unimpressive. They’re still 3-1 but face Tampa on TNF this week. Texans and Cowboys, lol. I also heard a lot of excitement for the Lions before the season. I’m good on all that right now.
Misc: Wonder if the Dolphins go to Tua at some point? Not much jumps out to me for next week. Sounds like the Titans - Bills game is in jeopardy if Titans players keep testing positive. Colts defense will get a challenge from the Browns. Actually, sign me up for the TNF Buccaneers - Bears game.

At least the Texans had a historically brutal start to blame - SB champs, 14-2, and then PIT.
DAL will definitely contend for the playoffs because their division is horrendous. And I won't write-off HOU because I still think IND and TEN are kind of "meh".
I think the biggest shame is that, somewhere, a perfectly deserving playoff-caliber team will be left out while the winner of the NFC Least gets in. All four teams in that division suck ass.
BOB out as Head Coach and GM. No word on if BOB the OC has been retained or let go.
Deshaun going to pick his next coach. Maybe he can sway Dabo?

BOB's entire tenure there could be summed up in one of two ways:
1. BECAUSE I'M THE DAMN BOSS!!!!!
or
2. Well, it seemed like a good idea at the time!
Terrible clock and challenge management by NE at the end of the half!
JFC Hoyer sucks.
Hoyer loses FGs twice for his team by holding ball too lone. Should be 9-6 instead of 3-6.
Pats are getting hosed by the refs.
I disagree,. I hate the Patriots and would have to say they are getting flat out fucked without the benefit of any lube

Well many sports fans can’t watch a game with an open mind. I think Reds/Bengals fans are the worst.

Lol you can’t even watch Steelers games anymore because you act like a child during them.

No I mean they are so consumed with the opponent losing. You don’t act that way but Reds fans are so damned consumed with hating the Cubs/Cards/Pirates....and successful teams of other divisions they can’t even unbiasedly watch the game. Like little league kids. Bengals fans are like that with Steelers/Patriots. Everything is a bad call or lucky etc.
Can I watch a Steelers game and not be irritated or have moments of idiocy? No I can’t, but that’s not what I was saying at all. I can watch the Bengals get hosed at admit it or can understand the Cardinals are a better organization at not just lucky with baseball gods.

I agree. I loved it. Every bit of it, whether it be bad calls by the refs or Hoyer looking like a dipshit with no clue how to run an offense. Fuck New England.
Titans - Bills not looking good for this weekend. The whole thing isn’t looking great really.
How many players have tested positive?
Since Sept. 24, the Titans now have had 23 positive test results. https://t.co/uKw5feOARR

I don’t think it’s all players, though. Some of it is staff also.
Yeah, it's a mix of players and staff. I know that last weekend, it was about 8 and 8, but don't know the proportion now.
Football always was going to be the toughest sport to handle. Most players per team, most players on the field together and all the physical contact. If anything, it's a good thing that only two teams have been hit, with one of them only having a couple players, at least for the moment.
Go figure the Browns start the season 3-1, and this season will probably be cancelled.
Joe Flacco starting for the Jets on Sunday.
