Falcons just about scrape through on the road to Bears. Winning without playing that well, but the pitch didn't help with players slipping every time they tried to cut.

Four fucking shots at the end zone and three dropped catches... ARGH!!!

2nd down shot on the QB. Just had to wait half a second and it's an easy take, plenty of separation. Third down drop was horrific, absolute WOW moment. That Cohen was causing all sorts if trouble, Falcons secondary made it way too easy though on that drive, didn't throw deep all game and then continued to let them hit underneath.
 
2 interception in 2 minutes and 2 touchdowns Matt Daltons had a shocker but a win for the Ravens is brilliant.

I still don't understand why the titans kicked off he season with an offside kick
 
That's great! I assume all the experienced QBs must be as good. One thing knowing coverages, schemes, blitzes etc. Still need your line and receivers/backs to execute.
 
Eagles got a good win at the Skins. Wentz looked good, I'm convinced he'll be a Top 10 NFL quarterback next season. Lost the only CB worthy of the name Ronald Darby to a dislocated ankle though, so I'm sticking with my 9-7 and just missing the play offs prediction.

That was horrible to watch.
 
Well that was 100% better than I imagined from the Vikings.

The Defense still played well but that's come to be expected - they have a top 5 D in the league but what a transformation on offense - great performance from Bradford allowed to happen because of much much better O line play giving him time. Diggs ended up with 93 yards and 2 TD's - Theilen had 150 odd yards and Dalvin Cook beat AP's debut rushing record with 127 yards rushing. Early days, but a lot more optimistic than I was after seeing the starters in pre season.

Agreed, watched it this morning and was very encouraged. I won't get too excited as it was against the Saints D who always get points scored on them but Bradford looked brilliant and great to see us actually run the ball well. Peterson looks done to me.
 
Bradford/Thielen combo looked very good albeit against a DEF that always give it up to QBs. Be interesting to see if they can keep it up.

Peterson needs to be constantly fed the ball, even at his best he would get it and run for negative yards, 1 yard, stopped at line of scrimmage but he would get the ball so often he would eventually find a hole and break off a big run or two, if he's only going to get the ball 9 times and be part of a 3 RB rotation he's not going to do well at all.

Indeed, if we can keep putting up numbers like last night we'll have a good season as the D is pretty damn solid.
 
So PuntsWolf, Johnny and Darlo. I'm thinking just do the Sun/Mon games on DraftKings or we'd need to pick our lineups before Thu night. Gives us more time to pick. Is that OK?

You need to register and tell me your DK usernames and then I can create the contest and send the invites.

Anyone else wants to play just shout up.
 
I'll have a go please. Will be later in the week before I can take a look though
 
Ok we'll just do Sun/Mon games then. Makes it easier to remember each week.
