Patriots are now 5-0. They are averaging 31 PPG scoring and then on defense they are giving up an average of 6.8 PPG. Their average margin of victory right now is 24.2 PPG. They get the Giants, @Jets, and Browns their next 3 games. Probably looking at 8-0 with similar stats.

Mo Hurst Jr, Jabrill Peppers, Chase Winovich, and Brandon Graham all with big Sundays. Taco is on a bye week, but he's been looking like a new man down in Miami his first two games with the Dolphins. Michigan has put out a bunch of really good NFL defensive talent the last decade or so. Offensive talent? Not so much.

Offensive talent has been sorely lacking. Probably explains why Michigan's offenses have been a shitshow for awhile now.

he's been balling for the Giants the past couple weeks. Making plays all over the field. I wouldn't have traded him if I was the Browns, but I understand why they did it. They had a chance to get maybe the best offensive player in the game in OBJ.

offensive recruiting has been clicking with star rating

just the star services missing on talent or Michigan not developing the star talent?
as you know, I'm not a fan of the star services

Browns w/o Denzel Ward and Greedy Williams tonite.Garoppolo should light it up but Niners w/o a few DBs also.Hopefully they keep their road winning streak going

I tried watching some of the Dallas game the other day, but I just can't.  I can't get over what a money-grab the NFL is.  They zoom in on a kid decked out in probably $100+ of garb and it's just sad.  
I know college fans can do the same thing, but at least maybe you went to the school or something.  Or you choose to donate, as I do.  But with what we know about how the NFL's popularity is largely fueled by gambling and fantasy, and not the product on the field....it just feels gross to me.  I don't want it to, but I just can't pretend otherwise.



People who like the NFL should, but for whatever reason, I just can't.

My main issue is that it all feels so sterile.  The stadiums are generic, the offenses mostly feel similar, the amount of annual roster churn just make the teams feel like a league of 32 quarterbacks, a handful of impact players, and mostly empty uniforms.

Jon Gruden's little bro Jay fired in Washington. Surprised he even lasted that long. Snyder fires coaches quicker than any owner I've ever seen. Insane how many coaches Dan Snyder has fired since he's owned that team.

49ers whooped dat ass. I have to say I was shocked. Not that the 49ers won, thought they might, but shocked at how badly the Browns got whooped. Thought it was going to be a really close game.

The more I watch Freddie Kitchens he reminds me of the Trailer Park Twin of Charlie Weiss.Bill Belichick can get away looking homeless  because he wins and is trying to relate to the little guy.Freddie looks like that because it's who he is.He prolly gets all gussied up in his who farted T-Shirt on Friday Nights.Hey Freddie you got some coin now.He was calling the plays last year when the Browns got hot for a spell - so I get that.And anyone looked good after Hugh went 3-40,ya you read that right.Mayfield isn't earning his pay either and Ward continues to be hurt.Thinking he may be soft - should have kept Peppers win/lose he's out there and drafted  a different CB.The Browns really miss guard Kevin Zeitler who they traded to the Giants,he was solid and dependable and hasn't been replaced adequately IMO.I've always felt that those guaranteed contracts are the problem.Want a Union - Good Electricians,Tile Layers,Pulmbers,Carpenters,Masons,Tinners,Glazers,Boiler Makers all make the same wage in their respective Unions.You make more the longer and harder you work.Big Money upfront guarantees meh,shabby results
