What happened to the Mahomes magic? The Titans are killing them, 27 3.
The Pats are rolling. Assassinated the Jets 54 13. Bill Belichick's showing why he's one of the GOAT.
GB still winning, That Baaad Man, Aaron Rodgers, earning his keep. Beat that Washington team 24 10.

| The league figured how to play the Chiefs, no doubt probably from watching the Super Bowl from last year. |

The growing pains of playing a young rookie QB. Fields will be a good one but is struggling today.

Terrible Tom is throwing darts and deep balls right on target. I guess his finger injury isn't bothering him at all.

4 Td's without Antonio Brown or Gronk and he did it like it was nothing.

When he gets them back they'll be a juggernaut. We may see the first SB repeat since Brady did it with the New England Patriots in 2003 and 2004.

Raiders are 2 and 0 since Gruden left. What's that say about Gruden's coaching abilities?

| Brady is the GOAT. The Niners front office must be kicking themselves for rejecting Brady when he wanted to end his career in the Bay area. |

Gruden was always a bit of a hack. Still living off of that Tampa ring which he won with Tony Dungy's men. And that hacky show where he would sit down with rookie QBs and break down film in a scattershot way. |

Brady didn't play particularly well, he was overthrowing his receivers throughout the game. My assumption is that he was too pumped about the 600 regular season TDs.
Fields has elite arm talent but has trouble processing the field. He's very accurate, his weakness is that he's slow at processing the field. What makes life insanely difficult is that his offensive line is crappy, which in turn means that he is forced to make rapid decisions all the while learning the offense as a rookie QB. Not an enviable position. |

It helps when you take possession inside the 50 yard line.

His coaching was reason enough to get fired, but he was a good bridge to Vegas. |

| Good win for the Colts however that Ravens loss stings because we would be vying for the division lead with the Titans next week. |

| Fields has been genuinely awful so far. I know he's in a tough spot because I think Matt Nagy is horrible, but yeah, he's been part of the problem. He's nowhere near ready to play right now. |

Yes and they dominated them both (garbage time TD's made the games much closer).
Time will tell but the offense already looks much better than with Gruden who's super conservative play-calling would drive me insane.
I've already seen more screen passes and more creativity on offense so hope that continues. |

The same guys that Dungy could not win a ring with....
Gruden was brought in to Tampa to win a SuperBowl with a roster that had been SuperBowl quality for several years. He did what he was hired to do. It is not about defending Gruden, it is about pushing back on the credit the media has always tried to give Dungy by rewriting history. |

Was looking at the Bucs schedule....if healthy, they should be a lock for 14 wins at a minimum. If the Saints lose tonight, the Bucs will only have 1 team (Bills) left on the schedule with a winning record going into Week 8.
- Brady is on pace for 5K yards and 50 TD's.
- Evans, Godwin and Brown are all on pace for 1K yards receiving.
- Fournette is on pace for 1K rushing yards.
It would be interesting to know if there has ever been a team with a QB with over 5K Passing Yards, 3 Receivers with over 1K Receiving Yards and a RB with over 1K Rushing Yards.... |

Good thing the Manningcast is back on because that's probably the only way I can sit through a Saints/Seahawks game.
I mean Jameis Winston vs Geno Smith is not lighting the world on fire.
Although I will probably tune out the first quarter as Tom Brady is their guest  |

Naturally you are and I'm glad you enjoy it but I don't think the casual fan is going to tune in for this game(or last night's game either and I'm a Colts fan).
Marshawn Lynch is the first guest Tom Brady is on during the second quarter(that one I'll skip) |

I think a lot of this is true. They are doubling Kelce and Hill whenever possible and forcing the Chiefs to check the ball down.
The rebuilt OLine has not been good and the defense has been a shambles. No doubt Mahomes is forcing plays at times now, he is sensing the season slipping away. That hit he took on Sunday was brutal, a reminder that even the QB's playing careful not to get hit can still get brutalized when they forget that and aren't careful enough to give up on a doomed play.
I don't think it is the Chiefs year which is unfortunate since Mahomes is my Fantasy QB
