bit of an anticlimactic week after every game went down to the wire last week
Still the denver-indy, atlanta-oakland games were overall pretty good

If you are in a pass only situation against Denver..you are ****ed. They go from great to godly.

Second straight week I get to scout the Panthers' next opponent on a late primetime game. The line opened up -6.5. Seems really high.

The Saints played great defense today, but you can't defend against the referees too unfortunately. 0-2, should be 2-0 except for horrible biased officiating.

RIP Fugu
They will have to deal with it
No other option (Unless they really want Colt McCoy as #1)
Going to have to see if Cousins settles down and finds his game from last year or if he continues to regress
Is there a pocket for him to throw?
Kind of wonder about their draft selections over the past 4 years.
Never found that dominant WR. This group lacks that big physical guy. Kearse is their biggest WR. Too many smaller guys in Baldwin, lockett, Richardson.
Plus, didn't address that o-line, when clearly Carpenter wasn't living up to his potential and unger and okung suffered nagging injuries that kept them out for 3 or so games a year.
Gambled on Graham, at the cost of unger.
A top level QB can still do well with weaker weapons but a solid offensive line. Better than having very good weapons and below average o line.
Seattle's defense is still very good, but not dominant. They give up yards but stiffen to limit points. Thus, the poor field position for the offense. Had a couple of chances to flip field position but could come through. Allowed the rams to get a couple of first downs and flip the field. Have to come up big and get a 3 and out on one of those possessions to get the offense a shorter field.
Against a strong defensive front, bevell needed to call quick passes and mix in some screens.

That may be a stretch. They gave up a ton of yards and were helped by two amateur hour fumbles. Otherwise it's at least a 30-16 game. The Eli sack and fumble I'm not going I downplay but the other two were just awful and not really aided in any form by the D

So NBC found something for Tirico to do.
Apparently Will Fuller is the first 1st round WR to have 100 receiving yards in each of his first 2 career games.

Other than the fact that they clearly punched the ball out on both fumbles, OK....
they conceded the yards and played two deep safeties because their starting CB's are no. 6 and 7 on the depth chart. Part of that strategy is getting multiple hats on the ball after the catch which invariably leads to fumbles.
Whatever team you root for doesn't matter, these bad PI calls late are changing the outcomes of games, not that league has much integrity left anyway.

He also calls Notre Dame games with Doug Flutie. I'd expect him to get some hockey run this year too.

I definitely remember a Rams/Giants game several years ago. Long enough that Bradford was their QB
