Week 1 in the NFL

Steelers are gonna have a hard time lol

 

Can't believe Evans doesn't have a catch.

 

Bengals lose lol

 

Chargers let them hang around. Almost cost them.

Bungholios...lol

 

Wow!! That was a great job by Burrow's for the Bungholes.

 

I've read pages of discussion here and elsewhere. Listened to both local and national analysts and I honestly still have only middling expectations. The only thing I think is that if Ben stays healthy, they will finish at least 9-7.

 

I look at the schedule and think we are 10-11 win team. Then I remember it's the Steelers who have broke my heart many times on can't miss wins.

 

The Bengals lost. Interesting but not surprising all the same. Due to the current circumstances, experienced teams will have the edge more often than not.


That was the theme of today's events in the NFL. Experience > hype. Always has been the case and always will be.

 

Right? I kind of think their defense might be overrated. On the other hand, when one considers how much they were on the field, it's pretty remarkable how well they performed.

 

I can.



Even dating back to 2017, Marshon Lattimore has always given him fits. Tom Brady's loss of velocity is not assisting him either. It all adds up Mike having a tough time.



.... that and Brady likes Scottie Miller and his Tight Ends a bit more.

 

Not this week. Big Ben with mnf lights on him = good Ben.

 

.....


Even though this was not on Marshon, I stand corrected about Mike Evans.

 

Evans will be fustrated this year, Brady can't go deep without floating the ball.

 

Washington is the team I am looking at; more so than I initially thought. I knew Chase Young would be very good. I did not expect him to turn a future HOF Tackle into a turnstile so early though!



As I stated earlier this Summer, the Washington Football Team is either a Dark Horse Playoff Team or will be playing Spoiler to the NFC East as a whole. Chalk one up for Philly already. Should Dwyane Haskins progress, the Football Team will definitley have something to work with for the future.

 

Isn't Philly's starting wrs hurt? That dude they got from the Bears is always out.

 

I would not be surprised by 9-7, but it will be because father time has caught up with Ben or Tomlin being Tomlin, losing games the Steelers should win. I find it hard to believe this team will only be one game better than last year.

 

I can't believe they allow Boo's for officials as part of the Fake Crowd noise.

End of the Pat/Saints game when the officials overturned the TD, the fake crowd noise was all Boos.

 

Not to mention Evans was listed as questionable during the week. He didn't have the burst on cuts.

 

I was referring to that front four of the Washington Football Team. Carbon Copy of the 2019 49ers. Major difference is that the Offensive Weapons are not there yet for a Super Bowl run.


That said, I would not be shocked if they make it to the playoffs!!

 

True.


That said, it usually seems Evans is nicked up. Hopefully he can get healthy soon. However, as they often say, once you start the season injured, you end the season injured.

 

Agreed.



This crowd noise is often not synced up correctly or is just plain awful. That said, these Networks sadly do not have much a choice. Here is hoping fans can get into the stands soon.

 

I took Washington as a 2nd defense in a 16-team fantasy league and should have started them.

 

I took the Clowns, glad I left them on the bench. A bad defense will lose the week for you.

 

Too bad Dallas will win that division lol

 

Well, next week should be good for you! Arizona's Offensive Line is not as good as Phillys. I expect Chase Young and Da'Ron Payne to have a field day.
