It surprised me too. I honestly thought dak looked pretty good without Ceedee lamb too, ngl. I don’t know if Dallas is better than I thought or the packers aren’t as good as people thought. Or maybe both.

Yea probably a little bit of both. Offensively the Cowboys are not nearly as bad as most thought they would be. I think that has mainly to do with how good the backup OL has been for Dallas, and how good Javonte Williams has been. They haven’t really missed a beat with Hoffman and Bass filling in for Beebe and Booker.


Williams has been great and Pickens has stepped up big time. I dont think CD makes a lot of the catches that Pickens made last night. He's playing for that big contract this summer.

I really like Turpin. I think he’s a weapon. Seems he always gets 30-40 yards on returns. I feel like he’s starting to be a decent 3rd/4th receiving option in the offense too.

Yea Schotty has done a really good job at getting Turpin involved in the offense. That’s another pleasant surprise this year, Schotty as a play caller has been pretty good. He’s leaning on the running game and uses motion and play action on almost every down. It’s been a refreshing sign to see after 14 years of Jason Garrett and Mike McCarthy’s boring offenses.

Both have been really good this year. Pickens has saved the WR’s this year. He’s been as good as advertised.

With Javonte Williams I’ve been really surprised how good he’s been. He might actually be the best value as far as the amount of production they are getting compared to the size of his contract. Going in to last nights game he was 3rd in the NFL in rushing. It’s still really early though and he does have a history of injuries so hopefully he can stay healthy for the whole season.

Percocet? She sounds like she's taken one too many.

Looks like the exact scheme the Steelers are running. Short / intermediate crossing routes and George running his usual fades. The running game wasn't bad last night either. I think you guys averaged 6 ypr

I keep getting free bets on DK. They give you a 125% match deposit up to $500 so 5 $25 free bets and I cash out right when I deposit. I’ve done this at least 4 times since the season has started

I wish I could do that from here. I need to find someone to take bets for me in America, my off shore book selection can be limited.

It's great in Arizona - we have like 6-7 sports books. I really only bet on NFL and college. I try to limit myself since it's addicting

Vikings fans said the same thing last week, then handed the Bengals the worst loss in franchise history.

If Broncos win by less than 38 points, then be done.

After all the years of Garrett and McCarthy, it’s like a breath of fresh air.
