Packers should have at least three Super Bowls with Rodgers. The fact that they have one is absurd. Every year he's injured because they don't take care of him.

Regarding Trubs, I'm all too familiar with the whole young QB with a new offensive coordinator. The parallels are all there with Nagy being from KC with Alex Smith last year.

Give it time, but 5 yards/attempt is really low. The Bears offense doesn't come close to the Chiefs eithet.

If it weren't for Rodgers' 1 ring, it would be an even more tragic story for a QB than Marino.

Had a great time in Indy for the tailgate and game. There stadium reminds me a lot of Arizona's and might be the nicest I've ever been to. Now to prepare for Thursday night's game...tailgate starts at 4:00pm and my friend gave me one of his tickets.

I was impressed with the Bears. So much better compared to the John Fox teams. Bitch Trubisky and Nagy might have a chance.

If he had the Fort Knox wall like Brady, we would not even be having a debate about who is better.


Then again, it's those freaking throws Rodgers makes while he's scrambling that has me shaking my head every time. On one foot, his throws were still unreal yesterday.

That throw Rodgers made to Allison in the corner of the end zone was perfect and ridiculous. Fucking shit.

On one leg.


Gawd, I HATE the Fackers. Like more than all my "hate" of Brady and the Pats put together. But, I can't be completely myopic and not deny amazing when I see it. Rodgers continues to own Chicago single-handedly...and not even a new coach, new system, new franchise Defensive player is enough to stop that freaking QB who is crippled and on 1 leg.

FFS.

Still, despite the sting of the loss, Mack had a first half of the ages (Raiders fans must be WTF and -ing when they saw the highlights. )and usually, that's enough of a difference to win a game...























WITHOUT Rodgers around.

So if a ball touches the ground for the Patriots it's a catch but if a ball touches the ground for anyone else it is an incomplete pass, got it...

Rodgers is a bad, bad man! Us Packer fans got a first hand glimpse of a QB who couldn't scramble... Reminded me of seeing Brady scramble, I don't know how you guys do it.

O-line looked like shit the first half, second half wasn't too bad. Secondary couldn't cover a flag football team the first half. Gonna be a rough year if Rodgers has to scramble for his life every game.

Mack is going to make an impact for sure but where was he the second half?

Did you not watch the Lions/Jets game? Or does it just not fit your narrative. This was called a catch

No one will accuse Rodgers of world class mobility but even with a crushed ankle he still managed a win. Meanwhile our QB might be the most mobile QB in the league and we lost. I'd rather have the win.

That's the easiest incompletion call they've had since "catch-gate" started and they fucked it up. Leave it to NFL refs.. not like they have instant replay or anything and could see the ball moving the whole time..

Chiefs finally a team to be reckoned with!
80 points through 2 weeks.
Mahomes throws for 10 TDs in 2 games, ties record.

GO CHIEFS!!!!

Was at the game with a big group, half Lions fans. Bunch of people from Michigan. Good times. Almost let the game slip away though, but I like games that go down to the wire.

Garcon's block on the Brieda TD was clutch, my favorite play of the game. Pierre made the DB his bitch.

Jags took out the Pats. Are they for real

With each passing game they are making Bell look correct.

But then again, when you can put of 37 and not win, don't think the problem that day was the offense. But really Mahomes is having a freak run right now. (I have Ben in fantasy so I actually watched most of this game ).

Yeah it sure seems like you can't even do more than give them a shove. But some of these guys need to learn how to hit the body and roll out of the way so they don't land on top of them. I don't think that's hard to do, but a lot of guys are going to have to un-learn something they all got ingrained in them when they were 12.

Jags played good. The Pats did not. Actually it was annoying to watch. The play calls werent aggressive at all.

Seems like every Sept they play like this, but they'll be fine. See you in January
