Ravens will win and win big, I say by more than 7. Cincy has no D.

You still think the Ravens win AND win by more than 7?? I think the Bengals and Burrow swagger are back. Bengals up 24-14.

I like to see the Commanders do well after the Dan Snyder era. It's early, but Jayden Daniels could be on his way for OROY award. 

 

Deshaun Watson is earning his high pay-NOT!

Couldn't finish.  The Bengals are loaded with talent.   It's crazy they can't win games

As far as Watson is concerned.    Karma.   Unfortunately his terrible play won't reflect in his salary.    I hope he eventually gets sued for everything he has

Their defense is one of the worst in years. In fact, the Bengals defense is giving up more points per game than us: 29ppg vs our 24ppg.

 

They’re in historically bad territory.

Belichick next year?   Great offense.   He comes in and fixes the d?

Perhaps! It would be a decent fit. He’d have a young proven QB and would only have to focus on the defense. 
 

Can Mike Brown stomach giving away GM duties is the real question.

Burrow was on fire. When the Ravens got Mike McDonald (their previous DC thats Seahawks HC), Burrow’s output was most limited. Otherwise he’s consistently scored well in the low to high 30s vs Ravens.

Yes he was. 5 tds. That should’ve been enough to win. And yet Bengals fans are trashing him and saying he choked…

 

I’d be super happy if Joe was a Colt.

The NFL is going to ruin me. How people use Gas money on betting is crazy to me.

I'm surprised so many taking the Broncos.    I know the Raiders aren't great,  but the Broncos offense is anemic 

Well... I didn't Pick the Broncos.. But I didn't pick the Raiders either. I just completely missed picking this game 😑.

 

 

 

 

I played Joe burrow in Fantasy yesterday. 

I was okay until Smith-Njigba who had 1 catch for 3 yards all game. catches a TD with 2 mins left to go.

And Colby Parkinson decided to have 8 targets in the final 3 mins of the Rams game

 

Football was not kind to me yesterday

 

Oh with all my ranting, I failed to mention I got 5 games correct... 5..

[teganslaw]

Denver might not have a good offense, but their defense got me 16 points in fantasy. I added Alec Pierce to fill in an empty spot. That was a last minute decision, and it worked. Maybe I'll make more decisions near the end.😀

Not that it matters, but I think I'm 7-7 this week (31-46 going into MNF, 32-46 after MNF). Need all the wins I can get!

[Dingus McGirt]

7-7 this week.  Gag.

Yeah, sometimes I may make a mistake by 1 game or so, I went back and looked. You are 32-46 through 5 weeks. That is why it is good for everyone to double check. I just checked everything again, I got everyone's else right. I will post the records on the new thread.
