Not a particular fan of either team, but why do the Packers get to take their sweet time and eat nearly 20 seconds of the play clock and the refs are literally stalling Washington and ultimately forced them to use a TO?

That’s on Washington, if the offense subs, then the defense is allowed a chance to make subs as well. And most well coached teams know how to milk that to the max

To me Love just doesn’t have the IT factor. When everything is going well, he looks great. But I don’t trust him at all when things break down. And I’m just not sold on their WRs at all. To me that combo is going to be the thing that is the Achilles heel.



His confidence and ability to get rid of the football plus his downfield ability is what will make him a good QB now get him to receivers and watch out

That's probably it for Austin Ekeler's career at age of 30.

Without ekeler, his running game is drastically diminished. He needs that balance in that type of kingsbury style offense

Ekeler went down in the 4th quarter. Prior to that Daniels had 7 yards in the first quarter. The numbers are horrific if you take away the garbage time drive. Like CJ, I think he'll be fine in the long run, but we gotta stop putting rookies conversations like they're about to break through to Mahomes/Lamar/Allen territory. The film is out now and teams adjust. Now it's them for Daniels to adjust, that ain't happening overnight.

Not to beat a man when he’s down. But Ekeler going down is probably an overall positive for Washington.

Ekeler just isn’t an impactful player. And this just screams the HC being a defensive guy and preferring the offense to be more conservative, safe and don’t make mistakes.

Bill and McNichols are better players than a very old and beat up Ekeler. This can force Washington’s hands into player less experience but more explosive guys

The Bengals are 0-6 under Zac Taylor for week 2 games. We'll see if Zac can get out to his first 2-0 start. Bengals defense will need to continue to get take aways since Flacco gashed em for almost 300 yards last week.

As of this morning, the Cincinnati Bengals are 26/1 to make it to the Super Bowl. Couldn't resist putting $50.00 on that one !!! :wizard:

If the Bengals win today I am going out on the limb and predicting the Bengals to be in the AFC Championship game.
