Those hapless Giants held their own in the 1st half at least without thunder thighs and a rookie QB. Turnovers for scores can kill any team, even those Boston snobs with the E.T. Alien coach and QB. Gronkowski as a colour commentator. I don't know about that one. Have to give him a chance. Tony Romo has turned out to be one of the best, best on TV currently by far. Troy Aikman was the best in my opinion but he just sounds tired this year. I don't think he wants to be there any longer.

Here I go again about these Power rankings. 4-1 Buffalo Bills are ranked 14th behind 7 teams with worse records. The Lions with a 2-1-1 record is ranked 10th! No respect for the Queen City, no respect at all.

Danny Dimes with another int....

The Giants defence is holding it's own tonight. They look really good. Not the game we all expected. When is someone in this league going to realize that when the Edelman kid lines up in the slot on the right side he is going to go 12 yards and turn it in, when he is lined up in the slot on the left side he is going to run 12 yards and turn it in.

What did I just say about turnovers for scores killing you. Reviewing, that was a TD.

 

[WIMUSKY]

I see angus was a homer. I feel your pain.....

 

[WIMUSKY]

Whatever we do, let's not think outside the box. I think it was brilliant! NFL, not so much..

Let's keep the game dull and boring. Don't innovate.

If anyone wants to argue that an NFL teams success or failure is NOT due to the quality of Q.B. #1 refer to the past 5 weeks of key QB injuries and deceases or even a temporary slump (I hope) i.e. the young Mr. Mahones. I will concede the O line is the next most important machine in the arsenal but even the best "O" line can't help an E.J. Manual, (sorry E.J. just the facts Mame, just the facts.

 

[WIMUSKY]

Winston looks terrible, he needs to be pulled, 4 turnovers on him alone and 6 sacks

 

[WIMUSKY]

5 turnovers by winston, 4 ints. 6 for the team..

 

[WIMUSKY]

5 ints, 7 turnovers Bucs....

 

[GA_Boater]

Was gonna ask what are you talking about, then I remembered they had to get visas for this weeks game.

Jameis ended his last series with an INT in the end zone after moving down the field.

Bengals started with a bang with a 92 yard TD return on the opening kickoff

 

[WIMUSKY]

Only reason I watched part of it because I have Godwin. Got me 25pts.... I'm 5 - 0​​​​ . There, jinxed myself...

 

[GA_Boater]

There, jinxed myself...

Curses! LOL

 

[Old Ironmaker]

It looks like many QB's today were body snatched by Aliens.

 

[WIMUSKY]

Vikes smoked Philly 38 - 20...... Happy with the play calling. Cousins looked good throwing and Diggs had 3tds. Maybe it helped to complain...

Any given Sunday. I am surprised at some of the outcomes, surprised how some dismal defences hung in for a while. While some so called offensive powerhouses didn't show thier power, fill in the balnk KC _________'s. And not so surprised the Brown's lost again. I wonder if some Browns fans, especially the bandwagon riders are looking to cancel their hotel rooms and looking to get refunds on S.B. duckets. I have empathy for the true blue Dog Pounders who got sucked into all the press. A perfect example of hype not scoring any points. I don't know the kid, never met him nor may never meet him but the Mayfield kid just rubs me the wrong way. We probably only see his game face, hell he just may the life of the party off camera, I doubt it though. For the fans sake I hope they and grumpy puss do better from this point on.

Jets 21 Dallas 6 !!!!!!?????? Wow Bubba Boy, 62 yard field goal, impressive. Looked good from 65 maybe.

Falcons drop #5 against 1 win. How do you miss an extra point to tie with under 2 minutes to go for OT?
