So the undefeated Chargers take on the undefeated Steelers. Game of the week? Haha...sounds kind of funny. I know there are obviously much more exciting matchups. It will probably be like 9-6.

But after the Chargers

Why do they keep doing this stupid overlapping MNF games? Either do a proper double header or don’t do it all. Dumbest thing ever

I actually kind of like having two games at once. Plays rarely run at the exact times and one will break you can look at the other one. I have multiple screens so I just have them up and mute and unmute audio on some of them (I have 3 or 4 on Sunday).

Makes sense. I still would prefer to watch one singular game in totality and moving onto the next. But yes, with YT MultiView or whatever they call it - that solves a ton of issues (for people like me slumming it with one TV in the living room)

Unless I am at a sports bar I usually have 2 (or 3 laptops) on a table in front of me, and then the big screen, and I have a game on each one, and can project whichever one I want to the big screen at any time. I used to have to go to a sports bar because there is always a play running on one screen and die hard fans of all the teams, but am past that. I'm thought about putting a second big screen in my living room, but I really only care a ton about watching the Chargers. Most of the rest I am interested in, except watching the Cowboys and Chiefs. I know the Chiefs will have their struggles, have a lucky play at one point and pull out a win at the end somehow. I hope they lose every game though, of course, and I've been watching fortune fall their way in games for years. I remember them down by 1 with minimal time left (like a few seconds) while the team was kicking an extra point to end the game with a 2 pt win and they blocked it and returned it for 2 pts to win. That Bengals turnover in the game for a td was the last one. You have to make breaks happen, but breaks always seem to happen for them.

How are the Ravens only a 1.5pt favorite over Dallas? That is just way off. I try not to gamble too much, but might have to jump on that one.

It’s in Dallas and the Ravens are 0-2. It probably should be a little higher than 1.5 pt spread.

One of their losses was the Chiefs and they almost won that game. The Raiders game I didn't watch though, might need to.

And then on the other side Dallas got demolished in every facet of the game imaginable. And their one win was vs Watson who couldn't hit a building if he needed to.

IDK, I expect Dallas to lose by 10.

I personally still expect the Cowboys to lose too.

The blueprint is out. Teams will continue to try to run on them until Zimmer addresses it.

Have a QB and a RB ever both rushed for 100 yards in a game? We might see history being made this weekend.

I see Ceedee sat out practice. Is that anything to worry about? Just a precaution.

What is most disturbing to me is the fact effort keeps being mentioned every time they get beat bad or blown out. Not just last week, but their last home playoff loss to Green bat and going back to the Miami and Buffalo games from the end of last year. Pisses me off Parsons and many guys on the team think just because they have and wear the Star on the helmet they can show up when they feel like and are entitled to take a week off 5 or 6 times a year. Its shameful to all the previous great players and legends that actually did show up in big games and the playoffs.

AROD has not had a 300 yard passing game in almost 3 years.

That could change tonight.

Man I feel old watching football now. I still remember watching Tyron Smith when he was at USC and that dude was the most jacked O lineman I’ve ever seen. Dude had no fat on him. That was 13 freaking years ago.
