RG3 looked great. Only starting Rookie QB without a Interception. 19/26 320 yards 2 TD's 0 INT's 139.9 QB Rating. Also the first 40 pt game for the Redskins since 2005
Luck had too many INT's and his COMP % was low but some bright spots. 23/45 309 yards 1 TD 3 INT's 52.9 QB Rating
Tannehill had a crummy day. 20/36 219 yards 3 INT's 0 TD's 39.0 QB Rating
Weeden looked horrible. He is not the answer to the Browns QB problem. 12/35 118 yards 4 INT's 0 TD's 5.1 QB Rating. Pathetic

Falcons- 12-4
Steelers- 10-6
Broncos- 9-7
Bills 2-14

Bears D vs Saints D, you gotta factor that in. Plus RG3 actually has some weapons around him (Morris looked solid).
Browns and Dolphins are garbage anyways. You can combine Rodgers, Brady, Peyton and Brees into one super QB and he wont change their fortune.

IDK Bubs, the Saints blew until they got Brees. He made Colston a household name and his presence I'm sure had a lot to.do with signing free agents. I'm a believer tjat if you have a QB that other players believe in its the best thing you could have in starting a franchise. But I'm also a realist that understands that front office, ownership, and overall team culture have a huge impact on the overall outcome of a season. If your owner is unwilling to spend money on talent, your already behind the gun

Was expecting a better game from Wilson, based on his preseason performances. He wasn't terrible, and lead the Seahawks down the field at the end of the game, but just didn't do quite enough.

Ryan Tannehill is the answer. Can tell already

The Packers/Niners game was full of awful calls and no-calls and just sucked the life out of me and the rest of the room watching it. The Packers were really flat, I hope they get their shit together by Thursday, I do not want to lose to those bums to the south of us.

The refs have been pretty bad in the games I've seen today. Many missed calls. Packers might be in trouble with absolutely zero running game. They might have to get Cobb involved, like how the Vikes use Harvin.
Oh, btw, how does it feel to be bringing up the rear of the division
Had to get that in while I could. I'm sure by week 3, it will be the Vikings looking up at everybody in the division.

It's been so long since the Pack were cellar dwellers that I don't even know how to feel about it. I'm guessing another 15-1 season will erase the sadness I feel now. I know as a Viqueens fan you didn't even realize winning 15 games in a season was possible or even allowed, but I assure you it is.

These scab refs are totally fucking a lot of teams over with horribly missed calls.
From the games I got today,
Bills looked horrid, besides Fitz's bad bad bad thrown picks, the D looked horrible, Mario after the game said, all game long he was getting literally punched in the face the whole game, but that's not an excuse for the rest of the supposed beast line to not create pressure.
San Fran vs. Green Bay was a fun game to watch, especially once GB made a game of it towards the end.
Got the tail end of the Seattle game, Edwards should have caught that.
Pitt. vs. Denver another fun game to watch. Scary how Peyton looks without his arm strength back 100%.

I figured oh Vick is playing the Browns while RG3 has the Saints. Gotta go with Vick.

this! Sucks for my fantasy team that Turner was an afterthought, but damn this could be Matt Ryan's career season. I just hope he stays consistent unlike years past

Holy hell he was almost in midseason form. I'm surprised how good his offense looked with his constant audibles. It's like he knows exactly what to call depending on where Polamalu is...and it worked almost every time

my bolts defense and special teams showed up in good form tonight. offense couldn't really get much going but kaeding looked god coming off his ACL injury. nice to see them come home with the W regardless of how ugly it was.

How important is a long snapper?
Ask the Raiders.
That was brutal.

I doubt they have any of these long snappers in Oakland either

I can't see how long it is, the fish is in the way and she's wearing jorts.

if my Madden season is any indication of how the season will go then Dolphins are looking pretty darn good to make the super bowl!
