After tonight's loss and last week's debacle to Arizona, NE is going to SLAUGHTER the Bills next week. Definitely bet the over.

Good day of football, though.

Can't complain about the Titans being boring this week.  Five plays of 60+ yards for TDs.  Giving up two touchdowns to the Lions in 38 seconds or so at the end of the game.  Botching up the last hail mary play.

And of course the end of the game where Schwarz passed up the tying FG attempt for a forth down qb sneak only to have the QB fumble.

Chris Johnson is still a worthless POS and should be cut tomorrow.

I think you're underating Arizona though.  Their defense is legit and Kolb didn't do anything stupid to cost them the game today.  Vick is a turnover machine this year.

Only caught the end of both CBS late games.   Houston almost blew the lead and Pittsburgh couldn't stop the pass in the 2 minute drill.

Bills are down to their 3rd string rb since Spiller got a shoulder injury.

It's funny how you can pick out the teams with the really garbage defenses.

WAS, TEN, DET, CIN, CLE, NO and maybe CAR have all suspect defenses at best.

The Vikings managed to upset the 49ers at home.  And the replacement refs still suck.

Yeah the replacement refs just keep getting worse.  I actually didn't think they were that bad in week 1, but they have been embarrassingly bad since then.  They were AWFUL last night in that Pats/Ravens game.  People were screaming about how bad they were for last Monday Night's game.  Well last night was just as bad.  That's 2 Prime Time games where they're showing just how bad they are.  That has to do something to get things moving along to get the real officials back. 

I mean, the Patriots played some pretty shitty defense so I'm not about to say the refs cost them the game last night.  They were bad on both sides.  Obvious penalties weren't called.  Non-penalties were called.  It was just a mess.

I was following that Titans/Lions game online.  That sure seemed like a crazy game.  Plus I had Matt Stafford on 3 fantasy teams so I had a lot of interest.  I got psyched to see they scored 2 quick TD's at the end, but then noticed that Stafford was out of the game.  Figures.

Well, the Patriots defense returned last night.  After playing real well against 2 poor offensive teams, they faced a good offense last night and showed their true colors.  Lucky for them it looks like Spiller will be out and I'm not sure if F-Jax will be back.  That should make the Bills offense a lot less potent.  So maybe they'll be able to focus on Stevie Johnson and shut down the one main weapon.  Pats offense looked a lot better tonight, so the Bills will have to bring it defensively to have a shot.  It can happen.  Reference Arizona in week 2.  Not sure Buffalo's defense is at that level though.

I think the refs are a big problem.  They have gotten worse, and players are now trying to get away with anything and everything.  Pass interference/holding/illegal contact is happening on every play and getting called seemingly randomly.  They have no control over the game.

The play that really bothered me was when a player dislocated his elbow.  He was down (though untouched) and clearly gave himself up because of the injury.  The refs instead of ruling him down reviewed the play and gave the ball to the other team.  All the talk about player safety and we get stuff like that.  The refs just don't know the rules...that's not really their fault, but player safety is a big issue when they randomly enforce rules.

The whole thing with Harbaugh pissed me off. Pretty sure he knows the rules at this point, and he was totally taking advantage of the replacement officials.

For sure. A classless act by a sore loser, at that point it was very apparent that we had won the game

I thought that about him last year when he got into that little spat with Jim Schwarz over the handshake.  The 49ers have a good team but I find Harbaugh to be far more annoying than his brother.

Darelle Revis out for the year with an ACL tear.

I can't believe the Saints are 0-3.  I picked them in a survivor league and got KO'd since they lost.  They look headed for a top 10 pick.

Not sure what to think about Lions-Vikings this week.  From what I saw, the Lions secondary is very very suspect and if they're not getting pressure from the front four they are getting shredded.

And that explanation about the fourth down play still sounds dumb as hell.  Somebody screwed up there I just don't know who.
