Yeah ... stumbled across them by accident when googling for weekly previews.  Not overly long too which is good - short & sharp for a quick overview.

Your game is the pick of the bunch ... Vikes will be desperate for a win and the Eagles can't afford to drop another one.  2 good teams going at each other.  7.25am start.  Rams @ Seattle on at the same time followed by Dallas @ Houston (SNF)  That's some good NFL fare.

Yeah agree. One of those ones where whoever loses will get pilloried in the media. Stressful for fans of both teams though.

Bloody Seahawks knocking out cooks and Kupp. Good job by the O to still get the job done, shields hurt his shoulder too.

Worried about these injuries with the run we now have coming up, being 5-0 is huge and all credit to my boys.

 

Did anyone see the Bills player tackle Mariotta in an upright tackle then let him go and mariotta ran  away and threw to the end zone... crazy!

Yeah saw that ... it looked like he gave up on the play.  The new ruling has got some of the defensive players 2nd guessing themselves. 

The Eagles/Vikings & Rams/Seahawks games lived up to their billing.  Managed to watch both on redzone and they covered both games well.  Lots of close matches again and we continue to see games going to overtime.  SNF was good too although I'm not sure that either team are going to feature at the pointy end of the season.

Power went out at our place so I only got to watch up to half way through the last of the early games, so missed the eagles/vikes, Rams/Seahawks. Watched highlights on B/R.

Packers got off to a bad start, 4 missed FGS but the alarming thing for me from what I saw was the complete lack of blocking at times by the oline. It was like they wanted Rodgers under pressure.

Chiefs took it to the jags and slapped them, Mahoney didn’t throw a TD iirc but they got the job done.

Looking forward to todays game.

I don't have any expectations with the Packers as I don't rate the team as being any better than a 7 or 8 win team this season.  Anything above that will be a bonus.  And we have a horror stretch of games coming up from week 8 onwards.   I am a realist.

I am way more interested in watching the league as a whole.

Really struggled to watch many games at all this week it's been a rough week due to some other circumstances. 

Watched the highlights of Eagles @ Rams. Interesting game. Still hard to get a read on the Vikings though their offense can go through sluggish phases but it was still a great win.

As for the Niners it's fairly simple, playing hard and with heart but missing key personnel, the line is weak and we turn the ball over at crucial times. Beathard has already had two fumbles from his throwing motion. 

At least the Cowboys lost!

Might be a bit easier to find 3 road winners this week ... only 1 point on offer this week although as we're all finding out,  any points are ultra-valuable!
