    We FINALLY got a coach who understands football and isn't infuriatingly stubborn about reinventing the game with his plays and forcing players to do things not in their skillset.

    Its infuriating it even needs to be said, but I've seen every version of it since 99.

    I really wish I hadn't seen the Dak injury. I wasn't trying to. I fucking hate the Cowboys, but I don't wish that on any player, and by all reports Dak's a first class human.

    Yeah, very sad to see to someone like Dak who was having a career year and seems good-natured on and off the field. Best of luck in his recovery.

    Seems like every season a QB or RB suffers a horrifying injury.

    And it's happened once again
    I'll turn to a friend
    Someone that understands
    And sees through the master plan
    But everybody's gone
    And I've been here for too long
    To face this on my own
    Well, I guess this is growing up

    Skitch that is how I felt when GB dumped McCarthy. Sometimes having a new guy who is willing to change things up and not be an idiot is refreshing.

    The Falcons also have a chance. Same with the Giants. Maybe we get multiple 0-16 teams this year.

    Things can change quick in the NFL!
    WEEK 5:
    1)Green Bay Packers - There's one thing that the Packers, Chiefs, and Seahawks all have in common. Well, a few things. But they can't play defense. They sure as hell can play offense though.
    2)Seattle - So who's the defense that shines through? Or does a drawn out offense that doesn't make mistakes (Carolina / Oakland) have the blueprint?
    3)Kansas City - But still though... You can't really mess up with any of these teams.
    4)Baltimore
    5)New England - Cam's probably back next week. They're 2-1 with him.
    6)Tennessee
    7)Pittsburgh
    8)Los Angeles Rams - As I think about this team. They may have an offense like the tops, but probably the best defense of the group too..
    9)Cleveland
    10)Chicago

    WORST FIVE:
    1) New York Jets
    2) New York Giants
    3) Denver Broncos
    4) Atlanta Falcons
    5) Detroit Lions

    Do all five of these teams (plus Houston) all fire their coaches this year? Or should I swap Houston with Denver?

    SUCKS: Dallas Cowboys. Somehow Dak is scheduled to be back next year. The power of NFL medicine.
    FRAUD: Indianapolis and New Orleans. Sure, New Orleans won. But both QBs are just a year from looking like Alex Smith (bless his heart)
    WTF: Dolphins. Could they... be good?

    The Colts have a pretty good defense, as does Pitt and the Titans. The Bears have looked good but let's see how they fair against the Packers this season.

    Today we find out Browns or Steelers are good, or if they've just played shitty teams. Anxious.

    Steelers playing well so far. Let's hope Devin Bush's injury isn't serious.

    Browns are like the Ravens. They can't play while down.

    Well, good game Skitch.
    Terrible game. I turned it off in third quarter. Browns were playing terrible, playcalling was terrible, and the refs were once again ruling Hines field. Steelers fans should be embarrassed about the refs, but they won't.

    I work in grocery. I have not gotten sick. My fellow employees have not gotten sick. If the virus were even remotely as contagious as its being presented as, why haven’t entire store staffs who come into contact with hundreds of people per day, thousands per week, all falling ill in mass nationwide?

    Ivan the Titans look really good though. Tannehill killing it for me in two leagues.

    Skitch I wonder if Chubb would have helped today. Probably not, but it's not the same run attack without him.

    This makes for some tough power ranking decisions.

    Have to run the ball to have a running game. I dont even know how it ended, I quit watching.

    Honestly, by the time the Steelers got up by 24, it was going to be hard to run very much, and even more with the way the Steelers' front seven was dominating the Brown's line.

    Mayfield still hasn't convinced me he's the guy for Cleveland. He reminds me too much of Kirk Cousins.

    I'm not saying they wouldve been successful, but to make the passing game work, they have to at least believe you might try to run.
