An awesome drive and close to the red zone, but then it is intercepted.
Maybe we will still win it. The Cowboys have the yards, run the clock, but we are the clever ones who make the points: 186 yards vs 92; 13:31 vs 3:31; 7 vs 14.

With the help of the refs the Cowboys are held at bay. But they still push this drive. Dak gets hit in the face (Texans and Bucs got for less a flag), but the Cowboys get the flag for holding.

Pats up by 14 vs 7, but I'm still convinced that the Cowboys will beat us. But Jones is really the light at the end of the tunnel. We only need to get rid of him:  and his father. |

My Packers up early on the Bears. By three points...do you follow the Tom Grossi channel?

It's like it's a joke at this point. Receiver trips and Jones is picked again... after yet ANOTHER injury of a receiver. It's pretty much statistically impossible to have this many injuries. Bad training can do wonders.

Mahomes with a god awful turnover to end the half for the Chiefs, the Chiefs look like shit right now, they look nothing like the team that has dominated the league the past 2 years. They are turning the ball over a ton and giving up way too many big plays. I'm just thinking about the pundits who were guessing how many season Mahomes will need to surpass Brady...when his single Super Bowl win was enclosed by two Super Bowl wins from Brady. That the cap space (450 mill. contract), and the draft and schedule penalty would hit the Chiefs sooner or later was a given. That's part of the system to prevent decade long dynasties. So how could they be that naive?!

Mahomes: 0 TD; 1 INT But I guess it will still be enough to beat the Redskins. Losing now. Yeah: 2 INT by now. They still have the yards, but to many turnovers. But I'm not watching the game, so I can't tell how bad it actually is. At the moment I'm puzzled about the Bears.

Ok...they did it. And I picked the Jaguars to win this game.
Now I can be easy about the Packers game...

I would go for the FG. Around 50% chance. A Hail Mary...its called Hail Mary for a reason.

Me happily just finding out there's an NFL game on tomorrow at 9:30am -
Then finding out it's the Dolphins/Jaguars Packers vs. the Cowboys - in London - when will this happen? After AUCAUKUS became a single nation? Sorry New Zealand, but you didn't make it.

If Cam Newton does not get a shot, not even as back up, how will he?

What did they get in exchange?
Eagles definitely need some help on the O-line. Hurts was running all over the place last night.
A fifth-round pick and a rookie CB. Have they made some Faustian pact? First they came over the Texans like Nosferatu himself, claimed Hopkins and Watt, and now Ertz from the Eagles. He is solid, not an elite player, but I'd had rather taken him than Agholor Stonehands. Which one is hitting heavier on the cap space? In 2021, Agholor will earn a base salary of $1,000,000, a signing bonus of $10,000,000 and a roster bonus of $941,176, while carrying a cap hit of $6,941,176 and a dead cap value of $16,000,000. Ertz will earn a base salary of $8,500,000, while carrying a cap hit of $12,721,500 and a dead cap value of $16,269,500. TE Hunter Henry: overthecap.com/player/hunter-henry/4748/

NFL is looking into playing a regular-season game in Germany as soon as 2022. 2023 at the latest. Nice. Brady is running out of stadiums to win in. The Pats and the Seahawkes are among the first teams which want to volunteer for the first Germany game.

NFL is looking into playing a regular-season game in Germany as soon as 2022. 2023 at the latest. Overdue. And dare them to chose Munich (I'm glad that Berlin is already out). This city has no NFL history, while Frankfurt and Düsseldorf had NFL Europe teams for years, and Frankfurt Galaxy had a higher attendance than the LA Chargers...without major opponents. They even put up a new League including Rhinefire and Galaxy. World League and NFL Europe: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NFL_EuropeThe new league - again with no team from Munich: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/European_League_of_Football

Tampa Bay
Who am I to question the GOAT?!
Jacksonville
Some sort of home game for the Jaguars, but the Dolphins can put up a fight here and there. On the other hand. I saw two video footages: one from Meyer, the now dismissed coach, speaking about how desperate they are (a team in full rebuild with a Rookie QB - nobody would expect wonders), and Lawrence, who was confident, that they will learn and at some point eventually turn it around. He sounded like a mature adult while Urban...I guess the college student (the blond female one from the clip that ended his tenure) is more mature than him.
I give Lawrence the benefit of the doubt.
LA Chargers
Strongest team of their division.
Minnesota
Sam Darnold has regressed to his former self. I guess the Panthers could win, but by now it is a mental thing. The Vikings were all the time that close but they never gave up...and at some point they will be rewarded.
Chicago
Fortuna IMperatrix Mundi. You don't win anything if you don't risk anything.
The Packers aren't that dominant as in the years before. On paper a clear victory of The Packers, I will most likely regret this pick, but I'm going the bold (and stupid?) way.
A victory over the Steelers does not mean that much these days anyway.
Cincinnati
Even my willingness to go for a risk, has its limits.
Indianapolis
Maybe the toughest call for me. I said it more than once: Wentz is a bust. But not inasmuch that he can't play, that there is not the potential to be a good QB, but - imho - he has some sort of mental blockade. Something Darnold make to struggle with by now. And this insecurity has also affected the entire team. The choking, and incapability to secure a lead and bring it home it one symptom of it.
What if...what if we screw this up now...this is too good to be true.
Maybe they need a mental coach.
LA Rams
Kansas City
So much for this dynasty...
Browns
The Cardinals seem to get a bit "tired", while fighting is the domain of the Browns
Las Vegas
The Broncos are just shy above the Jets, Jagaurs and Co., they had three duds at the beginning, and I don't buy this band wagon that they are a halfway decent team. They are next to garbage.
Dallas
An up-coming powerhouse.
And if the Texans can bring us close to a defeat -, and if the refs hadn't killed the last good drive of the Texans with a flag (a face grab like in the Bucs game...it was slightly touching, not grabbing into it), we had been done,- how should we deal with the Cowboys?!
Even bad weather and the refs won't help us against a good offensive team with a secondary.
Pittsburgh
Need vs. Misrey, but without Wilson even the Steelers can take on the Seahawkes.
Six or eight weeks without Wilson... I said it before, I say it again: their season is ruined and every victory will only hurt their draft position and schedule for the next year. If one applies the concept of game theory on their situation, they will tank for good draft picks - to stack up their O-line, or to have capital for trades.
Buffalo
At the moment the best team of the league.
