This is true, I watched a good bit of this game. Like the Detroit game, the final was misleading.
What I learned about the Broncos tonight is that their running game is a monster, Russell Wilson should win some games, but their coach is an absolute trainwreck. They look like they're going to have to win in spite of him, which is really hard in this league.
Also, score another point for teams that took the preseason somewhat seriously vs. a team that never played their starters.
Yeah, I don't put much stock in the Niners game tho, that was a shitshow literally. Saints/Falcons games are always bizzare to me and the Cardinals eh i dunno...Kliff just isn't it. Seattle won't win long term with Geno. Might be Rams to lose again. Just the best team in that division by far.

That Saints/Falcons game felt to me like one of those games where one team (NO) really needed an entire half to get the preseason out of their veins. Now, that could be wishful thinking though as I have their season win total over. So that win was kind of a gift—and quite probably REALLY necessary when it's all said and done.
In the 2h those 2 Chubb sacks were because Geno had no pocket presence to feel the rush and step up in the pocket. I think Seattle going to be pretty bad, especially on the road.

Was it the Saints who used to play in the West? I think it was. How is crazy was that alignment to have a Louisiana team in the West division. Half the league is closer in mileage.

Didn't even get inside the Tampa 30. Brutal display, AND YET........the bottom five teams in yards gained this week went 4-1 SU. Baltimore, Seattle, Dallas, Pittsburgh, Chicago were #28-32 in Offense. And Carolina was #27 and it took a 58 yard FG at the gun to beat them.
Top five offenses in yard went 2-2-1.
A weird, weird week.

Unless the Jets are playing a below average high school team they are never an auto bet.

Bump. Set. Shuma!
Going to really depend if the Cards are done before Hopkins comes back week 7. He literally makes Kyler's game. Hollywood is a very good #2 WR but not a 1. Need to be no worse than 2-4 when he comes back. Nothing looked in synch as Gandy predicted.

With the Jets you're betting on Joe Flacco and I get that sometimes you just have to close your eyes and play the number, but man he is tough to trust. But most of the rest of them, even if you're just playing the number blindly, I think I like. Records aside, I think I would have liked Detroit here.
I also think there's even a nice revenge angle here for Carolina at NY.

Seems like the Panthers offense was finally clicking at the end, they just dug too big of a hole.

I feel pretty comfortable saying this will likely be the story of their season. That said, I'm not sure this game is bettable at this number. I missed the open, but just based on the number I'd have had to take the Giants. This game feels like it should be -4.5 or more. So that they hung a -1.5 to start—even if that's asking for Giants money, I'd have given it to them.
Get me around four and maybe Carolina makes sense to tease. But less than a FG you're basically asking them to win and that team doesn't really strike me as a team I'd trust with that just yet.

I thought Bears dominated the entire 2nd half on both sides.

My man, Michael Jordan!
Barely had 200 yards total game. Fields did make 2 big plays though in busted coverage. Little to read from it though because of injuries, penalties, and the weather which came right after the Bears 2nd TD.

Think there will be some great buy lows on SF and GB next week. SF somehow lost by almost DD despite looking dominant for much of the game. Sloppy bad timed plays.
There no buying low, they both laying freaking -10 to division rivals! No chance im doing that.

The Colts got rid of their kicker two days afer he cost me the second half of a two team teaser last weekend.
I take no credit for this, I'm just saying that maybe they could have considered this sooner.
