Hunt will add his name right at the top of that list tomorrow.

Oh for gods sake... You shouldn't be listening to MMM or SEN at the moment. Just Tigers nonsense. And yeah. Beating Falcons that way, keeping Ryan ineffective... that has to jump you into a position of respect. I still thought Falcons had them at the end too. NFC just got nice and messy. No more undefeated teams. KC the only one left league wide.

Oh man. I'm gonna miss my 3 successful picks with a FG to end the game here.

He looked even better than he did in weeks 1-3... Didn't panic, made every decision a winner. He'll probably be the biggest story this week.

Gorg you should be a proud Ram. They were absolutely superb. Goff has come of age. Gurley is a star again. And your D was good when it needed to be.

Gee whiz the Rams are fun to watch.

Anyone pick Buffalo?

That's what was weird. They didn't really make a big deal at all during the game. But yes. You'd expect if it's the new norm that players will finally get the message.

As in, I sort of assumed they might let it slide or give a fine tops... But you got it right. Good thing too. Tick, NFL. Well. You know... I will try... but I have to be awake to set my side at 3:55am... SO I might not make it. lol I'm picking Eagles though.

You picked it though. They're obviously going on the heavier end of the penalty, despite it being the first really bad one this year.

Horrible. Shocking. I hate richmond. I don't remember any of that... just one thing stood out. jake is gonna be amazing.

Seems there's some noise being made about it now. Often those are a big fine, like 5 figures. Yeah the offense just moves it so smoothly. Very pretty to watch. Ryan is the same as he was last year.

Yup. I have them #1. I still like Dallas to go a long, long way. Green bay is a top 4 side for mine though, even though they can't even spell Offensive Tackle right now.

Yeah they get that part right. Don't tell anyone over on the main board though. NFL isn't a popular term there. I think you'll be ok. Not enough respect given to the Dallas D. I know they're not perfect, and might only flirt with being top 10... but they've got good players there. Playmakers too. I think they'll be alright. I don't see Lions and Vikes being miles past them even on their best day. Bradford and Stafford aren't Rodgers. Lions D isn't all that great. Vikings probably the stiffest competition. You're right though, beating other potential wild card teams will go a long way. 3-1 though is a good place to be... and it's not like the one team they lost to are scrubs.

Each to their own Macca, I guess. There's about 50 things I think need changing in the NFL incidentally. We could do this topic for a long time. For now though... you must be a happy Packer.

Playing devils advocate here, as I agree with you philosophically. Don't you see plenty of those hits every year? DJax used to take one every few weeks nothing changed. Should it be policed? Sure. Will it be? I doubt it a lot. Not even any outrage really on Twitter etc which is where you usually see it. So yeah. I think you're right. It'll take a paraplegic or death to make a change.

The culture is fairly broken. Did you know that they have discovered a better helmet that reduces the risks definitely, but the players never use them cos they look bad? Says it all. Actually a Pack fan should know. A year or two after Rodgers took over from Favre, he had concussion issues and used one of those goofy helmets.

Is it not? They are being fined. Or at least some of the time are. The rules are in place. Maybe not being officiated as well as they could be? The leg shots drive me nuts, but there again... You get these spectacular hurdles that get replayed and replayed. You know what they're like the Americans. You wanna make an omelette you gotta break a few eggs. Doesn't matter if you end the career of 3-4 Tight Ends a year, as long as we get our replays.

Yeah. They haven't changed the rule though. They'll fine him 20 grand and nothing will change. Yeah, I've never seen punters in USA get pumped up about the head high ones. The trouble is the big hits down the sideline that are on the body are one of the big features. They won't take those out of the game.

Yeah I'm no fan of those. But I do understand that's the nature of American football as opposed to our game.

Classic Packers type game here. Came in with no Tackles at all. Lost RB1, RB2 and WR2... and it's still a blowout. Rodgers. It's good to be the king.

Yeah his hand was up on his helmet within a few seconds. But joisus that was a hit.

Oh man. Clever McCarthy.

Right. I was away for a few years when the Scully one happened and never figured out what it meant.

Massive GBSS... lol (What does the SS part mean again?) Yeah the injuries are cause for concern. but Bears overall are just putrid. One good drive does not an offense make.
