I somehow ended up with Garroppolo in every league. I'm not jumping off him just yet. He did some good things. 250+ yards against Vikings is nothing to sniff one's nose at.

With Rodgers, one of two things happens. Either they scan and reveal minor bruising and soreness that calms down, everyone is relieved and says wow what a performance, how tough is he.... OR.... it's something more major like a strained MCL or whatever, in which case that game takes on even MORE mythical proportions. If it turns out to be the latter... then my god, how did he DO that?

Chargers should be disappointed. They're stacked. Dallas I think will fall away a bit. Dak and Zeke were really mediocre, and i can't see where they turn it around. Hawks losing surprised the hell out of me too. That news will likely get lost in the Bucs/Saints and Packers noise.

I have the mother of all close games in fantasy. Gurley to come for me, then Kerryon Johnson and Rams D to come for my opponent and I'm 6 points adrift. It was game over until Cobb caught his 75 yarder and suddenly I was alive. Cobb = old faithful for me.

Thursday night I was thinking 4-0 would look good. But my goodness, Tampa just smashed a team many have picked to play in the superbowl. Eagles spluttered too... Lots to play out here, and what was an easy win is now nothing like that. Ravens and Vikes, yeah... Vikes everyone knew were good. Ravens looked awesome... But for me it's KC I was most impressed with. Second year QB playing like that. They look a bit scary.

lol Classic demonland NFL tipping comp.

Yeah just saw his post game presser. He said he'd have more answers on Wednesday, but that if he still feels ok he'll play. Half time, with no news, and seeing his face as he was on the cart coming off, and seeing how Kizer was playing, it was season over for Packers... Now it's the complete opposite. I can't remember a game that had such wild swings in implications... from doom and gloom to the best comeback of his career (I think... in terms of score).

A lot of us picked the Steelers, right? Doesn't get much closer than that.

Rodgers adds to the legend.

@Macca Where are you?!!!!

Wow. Lazarus.

Oh no, Rodgers...

Ummm.... Do we have a tie rule? lol

Bloody hell how about the Bucs.

The "Weed" call is already one of those things people are going to look forward to doing when they go to games. Shades of Ang Christou's "Woof" when he kicked it, and Yze's "Ooooze"....

Every game there will have more to watch than today's.

That's why I was happier post game. Pinched one I thought we could easily lose, especially with 5 goal line plays defended. I'm relieved that Eagles have Bucs, Colts and Titans... the first two stink, and Titans aren't much better. Feels to me like a rusty squad needing to get things sorted. Also Wentz will be back after those 4.

I can't wait to watch the remaining week 1 games. Some teams I wanna get around like Rams, Pack etc... Never mind today's schlockfest.

Yup,. Came away from it at first relieved for the win, and impressed by the D.... but on reflection (especially after an unforgettable final tonight) it really was a bad team beating up on a worse team. Lots of work to do.

Going to be referred to over and over now. He's starred in a game that was ferocious, was either best on or in the bests depending on your point of view, against the best D in the game... in a final. That's it. You can't question his pedigree anymore.

My boy. Eagles have 2 Aussies on their list now.... His punting will get him special teams player of the week potentially.

Hardly a classic, but I'll take it. Soft 3 weeks now then the scary stuff starts.

+ another 58er.

Suh, Donald, Peters, Talib.... And Mack? I mean... WTH....

Jesus @Gorgoroth. I thought you were joking about Mack. Apparently Rams offered 2 firsts as well...
