Scary to think the Chiefs put up that kind of score in what felt like a below average offensive performance.
CEH looks like he belongs in the NFL is going to give the chiefs another weapon

For the texans... Deej looked very spry and could be back to his best, and Will Fuller is going to be a monster if he can stay healthy... otherwise... ehhh... pretty unimpressive.

Generally, it was just good have a football game on... i doubted at times we'd ever get here, and im not even sure we should be here given the state of things... but i enjoyed watching some NFL again and im pumped for monday morning

Texans looked patchy to me. TBF, not totally unsurprising given the lack of preseason. I wont put too much stock in tonight, coz there was enough to see they will be good enough this yr.

Chiefs didnt get out of 3rd gear. Thats scary! I agree, that little RB looked gooooood. They have a running threat now, CEH looked better than solid, so good luck stopping them this yr.

Wow it's already started? Missed it with the NRL season being off kilter. I'm surprised they had a crowd. I read a month or so back that they weren't allowing crowds in NY.

Eagles O-line got blown up. They were cruising at 17-0, and then let Washington back in it with 14 points off INTs. Was not expecting that result. Eagles need to do something to patch up that line because Wentz will not last long behind that mess.

Also, Jags beat the Colts - Minshew completed 19/20 with 3 TDs, and Russel Wilson had a day - 31/35, 355 yards, 4 TDs.

First few weeks are going to be hard to line up form. No preseason means a lot of guys are playing together the first time. Some teams will handle it better than others. Could see some big form turnarounds in a month or so.

That said it's still amusing seeing Eagles beaten by Football Team.

Prescott threw a deep ball to Gallup that would’ve set the cowboys up for a game tying FG. But Gallup was called was for OPI. On replay, it looked like Ramsey milked it and should’ve been a fair catch.

Just seen the footage. That looks like any contested deep ball on any given Sunday. Tough call

Why didn't they take the 3 pts to tie the game with about 5 on the clock?

This guy is fraud, here me now, believe me later

they had a 3rd and 6, and ran an inside draw on 3rd down because they knew they were going for it on 4th... if that's the sum amount of McCarthy's analytics revolution, the Cowboys are in perfect hands :lol:

it was a half measure and it cost them dearly, they've made a minor coaching upgrade at best.

Upgrade? Garrett has been working hard on his butt pats and happy clapping and I'm expecting big things from him in Blue.

Toviii my boy, step into my office

I've got a few for you...

The best if the Around the NFL Pod, it will be about an hour each ep and gives you all the news, the sunday night recap is longer but goes through every game, the hosts are piss funny and knowledgeable (stick with it a while, they run quite a few little inside jokes that you'll eventually get)

Ross Tucker Football show is a little shorter, usually 30-40 minutes, it runs daily and gives you different stuff every day, the host is Ross Tucker who played in the league, he gets guys like Greg Cossell and Andrew Brandt on to give their insight on game tape/business of sports respectively

The Pick 6 hosted by Will Brinson, can be a bit annoying with the tangents they go on, Brinson has ADD im sure of it, but otherwise it's great content

The Ringer NFL show is another daily pod with great content from different perspectives, it's got some gambling stuff, some tape dog stuff, some general chit chat and news. Kevin Clark is really good and he's the host

The Athletic Football Show is a new one hosted by Robert Mays who has moved over from the Ringer, he's a great host, a tortured Bears fan so thats fun, but he also has access to a ton of athletic beat writers and staffers

The MMQB NFL pod, a mix of Gary Grambling doing deep dives, Jenny Vrentes and Conner Orr doing macro level narrative, and then Albert Breer with some insider reporting stuff (i usually give the Breer eps a miss because i find him a bit annoying)


Those in that order would be my suggestions

I would recommend Stick to Football. They won’t necessarily recap each game but a great football podcast none-the-less, particularly during draft season. (Note they cover college football as well as NFL).

Move the Sticks is good too.

Yep Bucky is still on there. He can be a bit of a Cowboy homer on the podcast which can get annoying.
