Something has to give:

Lions have the worst passing defense against the Texans with the worst passing offense.

We will see just how bad Osweiller is.

Badgers/Cornholers Saturday night, some interesting Sunday early games, followed by Pack/Falcons, followed by Dallas/Philly. Should be a good football weekend.

I see the Jaguars went with "baby poop" for their color rush uniforms.

And now they are playing like baby poop.

What's the chance they fire their coach tomorrow?

I actually thought the Jags were going to be pretty decent this year.

I think everyone did. Interesting article on Bortles today about how his best play comes in garbage time:

We probably caught JAX at the worst time (for us)-- that game was like the Super Bowl for them w/ all the high expectations week 1.

Week 1 is usually an anomoly.

Sure. Not just week 1 either. For most teams, there's usually a lucky and an unlucky time to be on their schedule.

But my point is, the Jags- and their fans- were really, really, really up for that game.

I was fully on board the Jags hype train, and while I thought there was a decent chance they would disappoint, I didn't expect them to be this bad.

Bills should have run a play at the end of 3rd.

Why the hell does the best running team in the league keep throwing inside the 10?

Cowboys are looking more and more like the favorite in the NFC.They're a 1pt loss in week 1 from being 7-0.

Philly isn't far behind them either.

DAL looks like a team where everyone has totally bought in.

That alchemy is always mysterious, but I wonder if Dak deserves some credit for keying things.
