He’s missed plenty of guys out there today and he does what every GB fan claims to hate. He holds onto the ball forever!

There are 11 teams over .500 in the NFC right now, through week 5. Thats nuts.

Somebody said earlier the NFC is wide open this year, and it is, but theres a lot of “pretty good” teams.

They play in the AFC East. They've had the NFL's easiest schedule for two decades.

And they still win SB every two or three years... :lol:

No way that's PI. Should be overturned
I'm against picketing but I don't know how to show it.

So they're officially never going to overturn a PI then right? So, this entire thing about now being able to challenge it is pointless. This league is run by a bunch of morons.

Worse day than usual for the zebras. Happy to see Indy knock off KC though, although I am still not holding my breath.

Hobbled foot aside, he's looked mortal-ish these last 2 weeks.

He has...and yet he hasn't. He still makes plays scrambling that no one else in the game makes right now, like in Q1. Even with last week's dud, he still led the league in basically everything, too.

I missed whatever injury just happened. What was it?

I generally agree with/respect how they run things. Belichick is not only one of the hardest workers but they have been the most forward-thinking team for decades. They’d have won several no matter what.

All of that said, give me a solid/good team as the #1 seed over a great team as the #6 if I’m picking the Super Bowl winner. That’s a pretty huge deal. A lot of these years they waltz to a 12-4 or 13-3 record and then get some AFC South retread or Tebow in round 2 so that they basically have to win one home game + the Super Bowl and they’re champs. Outside of Big Ben and Peyton Manning a long time ago, their biggest playoff rivalries are against Flacco and Sanchize.

The AFC as a whole has been ass for a long time. It’s always some lukewarm supporting cast + prime Peyton Manning or Brock Osweiler going 10-6.

The NFC has been a turnstile for who runs the league but always features some historically good defense or team most years. Only the last handful have gotten more bland, but a good deal of that is due to depth/balance. The Vikings would win 13 games against this Pats schedule.

Sure, they usually walk into a division title every year cuz they get to the face the Bills/Jets/Dolphins for 6 of those games. But this year feels especially easy. The Dolphins and Jets aren't just bad this year, they're historically bad. The combined record of the opponents they've faced is 5-19. Take out the one game they squeeked by the Bills 16-10 only cuz their starting QB went down, and that drops to 1-19. Now they get to face a trash Giants team without their best player on a short week. To be fair, it's a tougher 2nd half (Chiefs, Cowboys, Ravens, Texans), but it sure is a hell of a lot easier when you're basically gifted a 7-0 start to the season.

As someone who owns their defense in fantasy, I was stunned at how bad their schedule was for the first half of the year.

Agreed...that’s what comes a with the territory. QBs who extend plays to make plays will also take stupid sacks at crucial time since of the defense can wrap them up. We are at the point where our defense can make up for that as long as the good outweighs the bad.
