Belichick is a genius no doubt about it. With  3rd string qb they play from what I saw a college style offense with read options against a coach who came from the college systems. All credit To Belichick. Cleveland will undoubtedly be reminded they did fire this guy.

Arizona

Pittsburgh

San Diego

Minnesotas defense is unreal... 8 sacks to go with 3 interceptions!! Huge... 

Wentz is looking the real deal at Philly, 3-0 & putting a big numbers. 

The Rams two on the trot Gorgroth... Strange scenes in Tampa with the game being abandon for 20 minutes with 2 minutes on the clock due to lighting..

Next they'll be extending Fisher's contract!

Packers looked great early and then Detroit nearly caught up ... you take any sort of win in this league.  There's not a lot between a lot of the teams except some teams know how to win whilst a number of other teams can play well but don't know how to win. 

The Eagles with Wentz look terrific.  The Panthers got smacked around and the Ravens look like they will be more than nuisance value.  And didn't the Steelers come crashing back down to earth?

And how 'bout them Broncos?  Siemian continues to impress. 

But the team that has been most impressive in the NFC are the Vikings ... superior defense and Bradford is playing his part and should get better.  They look hungry for wins and the NFC North will be theirs if they keep this form up.  The Packers need to improve if we're to contend.

 

Errrgggghhhhhh Fisher...

Good to win, better that we even scored a fewTD's... offensively too.

Our D is giving up big plays at the min. We had a 3/20 tgey caught itand tgen ran to the 20 yrds before one of our secondary closed the gap up. Tgey got 29 yrds... I understand with it being that late not to give up the hail Mary pay.  But Cmon, still got to stop them on a 3/20...

Vikes looked amazing. Wentz is a gun.Panthers look.a shadow of what they were. Broncos looked good again. Bills were amazing.  Slaughtered the cards early and kept at them. Great effort by them. 

That vikings defense is ridiculous. Cam had no idea what was going on. A lot of talk was that Rodgers was bad last week now I think the carolina game puts it into perspective. Philly shocked me. New England and the vikes shocked me. Pretty good round of football this week. 

How bad was the personal foul the Titans gave away in the last mins. Tgey had just got to the 2yrd line.

Falcons!  Suddenly the Panthers might have a fight on their hands in the NFC South ... next up for Carolina - @ Atlanta. 

Not sure what they call an 8 point game in the NFL but it'll either be 2 & 2 for both teams or Atlanta will go 2 wins clear of the Panthers if they win at home next week.  Regardless, it's a big match for both teams.

I wasn't too confident going into todaya game but when I read 7 starters for the Saints were inactive I thought we should win. I must admit Shannahan has our Offense humming but the offense started well last year & stalled. The defense from both sides today was terrible, Brees & Ryan moved the ball with ease while Freeman had a field day on the ground  (& in the air).

You are right Macca huge game VS the Panthers next week although I expect Newton & co to come out firing after last week. Atlanta would want to fix their D because you can't rely on your offense to put up huge points every week, especially with Panthers, Broncos, Seahawks to come.

The Saints run defense was deplorable but that's their problem ... your blokes putting up 45 points in that stadium is an excellent result.  I give you a genuine chance next week.  We're so used to seeing Ryan throw for big yards but that wasn't needed as much ... the Falcons ran the ball really well and exploited the weakness.

The Panthers are becoming the hunted as quite often happens after a team has a successful run.  Apart from the technical side of things, they're a team that other teams like to beat. 

Points tally in the comp

1 - JV7,  Gorgoroth,  cowboy_from_hell,  DeeSpencer

0 - TWSRN

 

1 point on offer this week and after that, 2 points are on offer every other week.

Colts, Lions, Broncos.

Panthers (I shouldn't tip against my own side) 

Cowboys

Denver (Honestly think TB are a big chance here)

Our D was down to 7 fit lineman during the game with TB and they couldn't beat us, Broncos D is as good but their offence is much better and TB D is average.

7 road winners last week with 6 the week before ... my best effort this season is 1 for 3. 

The trend will no doubt continue ...

Watts out for season hurts the Texans.

 

Gee the dolphins are poor. Yesterdays game was pretty crap.

Can't remember the last time Miami were a good team. They're ok and I know they are stuck in that division but they've been so so for years.

Detroit Denver Dallas

It seems popular and I like it as well. Tipple D.

Denver
Dallas
Detroit

On pure line betting I like KC, the Rams, Buffalo and Cleveland all to have a crack at being competitive and covering. Thinking 3 of those cover the line.

What a game by Jones, and the Falcons. Absolutely smashed them.

great comeback by the saints, as I was watching it I thought, surely they can't do it again, and once they scored the first TD with 4 mins left I knew they would win.

 

Another win to my Rams and TBH second week I've wondered how we have clinched it. Keenum is throwing some good strikes, other times he is throwing so poorly. We seem to be making some big throws for big gains but not being able to move the chains on a constant basis and we need to work more on this to stop the box being filled up and jamming Gurley at the line of Scrimage.

Our D s good, but once again we are giving up 15-25 yard plays regularly. I'm not use to seeing that. We are super aggressive at the line which is allowing the run game against us to make decent plays, need to tighten up there. But 3-1 beating the Seahawks and Cards away is a good start to the season.

Ryans & Jones  Unbelievable 

Bring on Denvers defense next week 

Whack!

What a crap article.... For one the Rams have beaten 2 sides in their divison who were highly fancied coming into the season. Two, who cares that they are 3-1 & the same as the Pats, surely this reporter knows that in the NFL sides have easier schedules, harder schedules, to be 3-1 doesn't mean your on the same level. Like I've come to work out all you have to do is win your divison... The rams have beaten the 2 sides tipped to fight out the divison, surely the reporter can give some credit where it's due because for all his negatives they should be positives the Rams are getting it done with Keenum as QB & Gurley not firing.

Any given Sunday hey ...

• The Pats kept scoreless - the Bills might be decent
• Rams lead the NFC West with 2 wins against divisional rivals - Arizona have now dropped 2 games at home.
• Atlanta 2 games clear of all their divisional rivals - Carolina need a win to get their season back on track.
• Oakland have won their first 3 games on the road - last time they did that they made the SB.
• Without JJ Watt for a good length of time the Texans are 2 games clear in the AFC South.  Indi are struggling.
• Detroit's season is slipping away - sitting at 1 & 3 with the Eagles next up.
• Denver keep marching on and the Seahawks are flexing their muscles.
• Dallas are 3 & 1 with Prescott ... Romo will almost certainly step back in but the stand-in QB is doing well.

Looking forward to tomorrow's game ... New York (the Giants) can bring a great game when they're on but the Vikes are killing it at the moment - should be a good game, all the same.
