I hope it is treated as such. Doesn't need to be the full roster, just a couple guys like Prescott, Elliott (imagine how quickly the cries of "thug" will come out), Bryant, Lee, a couple offensive linemen, and a few more guys.

The fuck is going on?


Ben was just off yesterday. Way off at times. And Le've'on' isn't back to where he's been the last few seasons either. So, they can't just line up and run at teams right now and every 3-4 of Ben's passes are wildly off target.

Antonio Brown is still awesome.

Biggest shock, the Jets have a winning record! I thought the under of 3.5 wins was a guaranteed bet this year. They had the easiest games on their schedule the past 3 weeks, so I give them a 50/50 chance of going 3-13.

They are paying 1/5th of their cap to fat Jay Cutler right now. He's been off and missed simple reads in every single game. They should have beaten Chicago by 14 and Jax by more than that if they had a guy who was still playing like an elite QB.

Watch next week closely - unless he changes this, he will stare down AB start to finish on seriously like 50% of his dropbacks. He'll throw into double coverage with an open WR streaking across the middle 8 yards downfield. He'll throw open WRs out of bounds on deep balls. I hate to read body language but he looks like he went through with the retirement.

And like, why the fuck are you picking on Jalen Ramsey? Everyone wants to fire Haley just like they wanted to fire Arians but the coordinator is not picking the throws. Outside of week 1, the play calling has been just fine. Cleveland dared Ben to beat them and for a half the Steelers just ran into the teeth of that front. Something is wrong with him (probably just got old) and they don't really trust him anymore, IMO.

we might..and end up beating a shitty cincy or oakland team in the first round and getting smasged by the patriots in round two. ive resigned myself to just enjoying deshaun watson being the best qb houston has ever had. objectively close losses to kc and new england isnt that bad a resume, especially considering the beatdown we put on a supposedly good titans team. we have scored enough points to win in everygame he has started...if the defense showed up a little more we might have beaten the patriots. we could still conceivably go 9-7. the shitty thing is that its JJ...hes a great guy, raised millions for houston and is the greatest defensive player to ever wear the uniform. we deserved him back. he deserved to play. it sucks. he might never play again.
