Plus Pats D is not very good

I've never seen so many stupid penalties from a Pats team. That last drive shouldn't have made it past the 50, just absolute stupidity

Clearly, you need to watch more games played by Da Bears.




So, in short: Zipit.

Wow injury to Beckham was tough to watch. I'm no Giants fan but feel bad for him.

Giants lost their entire receiving corps today to injuries.

All these injuries.....?? Players aren't football ready for the season. NFLPA has been able to dumb down training camp and bodies aren't ready for the season. Some are just bad injuries that couldn't be avoided.

It was a home game so we were there. It rained before kickoff but stopped. Field was probably a bit wet, but I can't figure out what takes out 4 players in one game other then the fact that they were losing to a 0-4 team and tried to overcompensate. They played terrible before the injuries anyway.

There is a lot of talk, that these fields that many NFL Stadiums have switched too, are to blame. Seems they are less injuries when play on natural grass. ???

JJ Watt out.., look what type field they are playing on? Being blocked, not a contact hit, just leg getting locked in turf.

Crazy week again...not in a positive way either for many.

Watts is likely done for the year...saw that video of him going out on crutches to the ambulance.
Beckham has a fracture.
Big Ben channeled his best Jay Cutler impression and threw for 5 INTs.



And yeah, @ the Jags...

Giants are a mess. Might as well lose out and battle the Browns for first overall pick. Revamp the offense.
But i agree, there are way too many injuries this year. Combination of players not being game ready and the playing field?
The Chiefs look like the most complete team. Balanced offense and play calling that matches their personnel. A good enough defense to keep them in games.

I don't know if "dominance" is the word I'd pick here, but KC is playing as tough as anyone out there.

The way these weeks have gone, it just might be whatever team avoids the season-ending injury to their star player.
