So nice that KC fixed their running game. Holy hell, they are now a cheat code. CEH is so damn good.

This would be the reason I would end up getting escorted out of the stadium by Baltimore's finest.

Do the stadium cops in Baltimore wear Zubazz too?

It was a moment of silence so you can hear pretty much any yahoo who's making any sort of noise.

Shots fired bronto

Not exactly the cream of local citizenry that would attend a football game in the middle of a pandemic, but still not a very good look.

From what I have read on Twitter and other places on the internet, it wasn't a good look for the players. But that is what I get for clicking on accounts that respond to trumps tweets.

Portions of the fanbases that attend games.

It’s going to take a very long time before Las Vegas Raiders is not weird.

I’m still trying to get used to the Arizona Cardinals. So yeah.

I still say LA Rams

Is there anything stranger than seeing the Patriots with a rando at kicker?

Same random guy as last year. Is anything stranger than Cam at qb for the pats?

Hey Dsafe how about those Bears? You can’t stop Mitchell Trubisky. You can only hope to contain him!

Matt Patricia might be fatter than Andy Reid now.

This just in... the jets are horrible.

This crowd noise is kinda silly. It makes the home viewing seamless from last season, but it's totally nonsensical when you know no one is in the stadium.

(There was a personal foul on the defense in TB/NO. It was the right call. Whoever's controlling the noise hit the "massive booing" button because it went against the home team. Just dumb.)

Raiders-Panthers game ended with the "crowd" cheering wildly, even though the game was in Charlotte and the Raiders had come from behind in the 4th to win.

Stupid hockey towns.

This is an onion of a joke.

oh, the Bengals.....

Don’t the Panthers play in Sunrise?

Holy shit. Everything about the Rams’ rebrand is utterly terrible.

Dogshit game that will inevitably be framed as a "dramatic fourth quarter comeback" when in actuality it was Matt Patricia deciding that the eraser on the pencil over his ear could edit the football maxim "the only thing the prevent defense does is prevent you from winning". There is no point trying to extrapolate anything from this game, as the Lions clearly cannot overcome Patricia's coaching. Adrian Peterson averaged north of 6.5 yards a carry, but the aeronautical engineering degree-holder on his sideline brilliantly kept rotating three backs, including DeAndre Swift, who had a game-winning pass go right through his hands in the end zone on the next-to-last play of the game. Matt Nagy's 5-0 mark against Patricia now includes a game won on a fourth quarter pick-six, wins over Lions' squads started by Jeff Driskel and David Blough (with the winning score coming in the final 2:30) last season, and today's polished turd.

Jimmy Graham had more passes clank off his hands in the first three quarters than land in them. Trubisky almost got Cole Kmet killed on the only pass thrown his way. A lot of the discussion prior to the game was how Detroit's right side of the line would handle Chicago's line with an injury replacement and a rookie. Well, the Lions gave up one sack, rolled up 435 yards, and I already mentioned how a 35-year-old running back ran more or less at will throughout the game.

Don’t forget the horrible fake punt in the first quarter.

They looked like a high school team that got their budget slashed and this was all they could afford.

I was also surprised to see Case of Busch Keenum was doing another round of those.

I built a projection model for fantasy players and for games that I'm gonna work on throughout the season. Some relative hits, a lot of misses in week 1 obvs, but it nailed LAC 16 CIN 13 on the dot.

Thanks for the heads up on Tyler Boyd.

Monster. Just like I promised. As always, do the opposite.

Take a moment to dunk on the Falcons today, who

- had the natural advantage of playing a west coast team at 1:00 Eastern
- opened the roof and made that team play in 90 degree Southern slop (and stand on the sunny side!)
- got their asses kicked all day long.

I know Browns yada yada, but hard to think of a worse way to start.
