Watching Wentz going through the Titans much like he did the Jags......

 

Keeping an eye on Davis Mills and Texans over Jville

[w87r]

Looks like:

 

Giants Packers

Steelers Bills

Bears Vikings

Cowboys Rams

I forgot they play in London. Packers lead 20 to 10. 

 

I have to go somewhere at 1 ET. Maybe they will have the Vikes game at the restaurant. Hopefully I can watch the late afternoon games.

Easy Sunday coming off the beautiful win on Thursday night.

 

[Happy2BeHere]

I love/hate Thursday games when your team plays. Great cause you don’t have to wait all week for a game but hate when Sunday shows up and your team is on hiatus because they already played. 
 

try to be interested in other games but i lose interest fast because I’m not invested in other teams

Jaguars have lost 8 in a row vs Texans, couldn’t believe it, it’s like our record at Jaguars

…and we thought it’d be easier playing the NFC East over the AFC West on our schedule. That’s why you never know. 

 

NFC East - 3-1 Cowboys playing great D, 4-1 Giants and 4-0 Eagles, Wentz is their punching bag, lol

Yea nobody saw that happening 

[Restinpeacesweetchloe]

Daniel Jones is looking really good. They didn’t pick up his fifth year May end up having to extend him.

[chad72]

Yep, the last time they swept the Texans, they won the division and went to the AFCCG in 2017.

[Chrisaaron1023]

very disappointing for the Pack.. 

 

I'll probably pop in on a few games. Mostly for fantasy implications. But I'll focus mostly on Bills vs Pitt and Tenn vs Washingtion

He’s not turning it over and playing smart and letting his D make plays and not putting them in bad spots.

Yeah he has had a fumbling problem in the past.

Bucs and Brady is what I see in the end in the NFCCG for certain. We thought the AFC North and NFC West would be brutal for Brady along with games vs Packers and Chiefs. Those divisions aren’t cracked up to be what they are though the Bengals and 49ers will play the Bucs tough, and that’s all I see.

But the NFC (not least) is looking good. of course we have to play them this year

All the games are easy to watch now since we got the win on Thursday. I will be rooting for the Commanders today, Go Wentz 

[Restinpeacesweetchloe]

Let’s go Carson help us out today.  If some miracle happens and jags and titans lose colts are in first place.

Who made the schedule for us with 5 out of first 7 games being divisional games? What happened to the rules from the post Polian era to not decide divisions till December? They should have done just 3 in September and October and the rest in November and December to keep the division exciting and alive?

Otherwise it’s conference and out of conference games that have a lesser impact on the division than the divisional games themselves.

Next 2 weeks are critical vs the Jags and at Tennessee. It will be interesting to see how we play them again.

Having all these division games front loaded is so dumb. Remember when colts titans was last game of season in 18.

We should have Taylor healthy (hopefully), more practice for the OL and unlike the last time at Jacksonville, both Pittman and Pierce healthy. Definitely going to have all our guns blazing.

Yes, what if Jaguars or Titans limp into the playoffs and are sitting ducks after starting the season well. Having divisions decided later will be a better reflection of who’s also going into the playoffs in better form, IMO.

[2006Coltsbestever]

I am getting Bears at Vikings and Steelers at Bills for my early games here in Indy.

[2006Coltsbestever]

@NFLfan, it seems I always get Vikings games  

[w87r]

98yd TD pass to Gabe Davis.

 

Good start

Bills were my SB pick to win it before the season. I see very little weakness with that team. Giants beat the Packers today 

[Restinpeacesweetchloe]

Able to watch the two division games. My nephew is over and he has his red zone on. 

[2006Coltsbestever]

Great drive by the Vikings, 7-0. Cousins looks good.

I saw that ESPN documentary about the Bills 4 SB losses. Very gut wrenching. I’d  bet America would root for them if they get to the SB.

Packers offense looks bad, Rogers is aging and they have no weapons hahaa sound familiar?

But their D can’t carry him, that’s the difference for now

I bet Aaron is pee'd off after that loss.

Eberflus, Guge were all Josh McDaniels picks, maybe Eberflus was a bigger issue than we realized.

Eberflus is probably the wrong coach for Fields. I would think Fields would need a young offensive minded coach. He looks lost out there. I am happy with Bradley so far, the D was great vs KC and at Denver. The Jacks game was disappointing but our offense laid an egg in that game. That was Matt's worse game.

[2006Coltsbestever]

Cousins 10-10 so far, the guy looks like Brady
