Incredibly fun watch. LMAO at the rodeo clown defense they played at the end of the first half. Fun. Or the necessity of a 58 yard kick to seal the victory because Caleb got sacked. Fun. Glad they won. Being a true Bears fan means knowing that every game is a test of emotional stability. We typically fail. It’s good to have a dainty winning QB, though. Thanks. ☺️

I think it's so ridiculous that these guys refuse to take points, it's dumbfounding honestly
the stats don't necessarily bear this out, but JJ McCarthy will be a starting quarterback in the NFL. idk for who, but he will be. the kid has miraculously reinvented himself since changing jerseys. two weeks in a row i've seen him regularly making throws he had never made before. the Giants don't win that game yesterday if they had started the Minnesota JJ, period. it leads me to believe that John Harbaugh is legitimately a great coach.
this one i'm very confident in. the Minnesota Vikings are about to start losing football games. to this point their good-enough-to-win-a-Super-Bowl defense has successfully stuck its finger in the dike. but it's about to break. their offense under Kyler has had 6 weeks to show progression, and it's still doing just enough to win games. just enough is no longer going to be good enough, especially when you consider that they have the roughest strength of schedule from here on out. and it all starts in Detroit next week. if the Vikes win that game, i'll be the first to admit i did not see that coming and i will view them differently than i do now.
So nice to not just see the Chiefs lose but to see them get embarrassed on National TV. Humility is good for the soul and the loss, though it stings, might actually help them.
Note to @galaxy27: Jim Harbaugh and JJ McCarthy have already proven to us who they really are. It might take a while but the HC will make bonehead decisions that hurt the team and the QB will rise to his true level of suck-ness. Sadly, that is the truth of them both. I believe people can change, just not these two.

you have the wrong brother, brother. one can't win a game, the other is turning a new team around without its starting QB and is inserting a guy that up until this point sucked.
But they will both do what they do, especially Harbaugh. With the Ravens his specialty grew to become going for the two points and a win instead of the tie and OT. It got to the point where that choice actually kept them out of the playoffs one season. I respect Harbaugh for his ability as a Coach but he can’t seem to overcome the other negative aspects of his personality. His brother is even worse so maybe it’s a family thing.

they really got exposed as far as how important just one player is to their entire offense. when Walker got neutralized last night, the offense ground to a hault. if Andy either runs the wheels off him or he gets injured, it will be a very long season for KC.

I'm a huge Vikings fan and I didn't think we'd be unbeaten at this point much less the last unbeaten team.
In the next four games, if the Vikings are still unbeaten, then we have something special.
My guess: will be lucky to win one game.
i think the Vikings are one guy away from taking the leap they obviously need in order to not waste that championship defense of theirs
Jonathan Taylor
if they get him, watch out. it'll galvanize the O and open things up for Murray (and the entire unit) to look more formidable in every aspect on that side of the ball
if i'm the Vikes GM, i'm emptying the tank for that dude
I've never been a Harrison Butker fan, and can't wait for him to be jettisoned.
I have to laugh out loud, though, that the Chiefs decide to sign Justin Tucker to the practice squad. C'mon!... I hope Kelce would just beat both their asses, throw them out the door, and we find a third kicker somewhere else.
So time was called because a drone was flying around outside of the stadium??? Why?? Are the referees going to load their shotguns and run out there to try to shoot it down??????
Green Bay Packers wide receiver Christian Watson was transported by ambulance to a local hospital for precautionary chest testing during the second quarter of Thursday night's game against the Carolina Panthers.

But then the ambulance brought him back from the hospital to the stadium!
Good early signs for Buffalo. Allen personally breaks Jim Kelly's TD record with a TD run. Kicker hits the goal post, ball goes in anyway. Lamar knocked out on first play. All within first half hour. Going Bills way.
Now Huntley hurt?

tough game for Bal with injuries. down to 3rd QB
I think Jackson is washed up. He’s getting hurt constantly. Perhaps it’s time for Jackson to go to the Jets. They have history of picking old quarterbacks.

coach long enough and you're bound to make questionable decisions. but his body of work speaks volumes:
12 playoff appearances
4 AFC Championship games
1 ring
and now he's showing off his prowess with a starting QB-less team that is looking up at no one in the NFC East
i mean, being a Browns fan one would think you'd be willing to walk over a hot coals for a coach like that
as it currently stands, John and Jim shouldn't even be in the same sentence, unless you're talking about the Harbaugh family
Jim supposedly has one of the best QBs in the league, supposedly one of the most brilliant minds as an OC, yet they can't even win a game
take the next step and look at the Chargers' roster and try to find the talent that brother Jim has assembled
now that's a coach worthy of a good stoning

Arizona 5-0 at the Boys new digs.
read this one about a half hour ago
since 2000, the Cardinals were 1-174-1 when trailing by 14 or more points in the 4th
and
since 2000, the Cowboys were 69-0 at home when leading by 14 or more in the 4th
Go Denver, stopping KC at the 6 yard line on 4th down with 4 seconds to go. Denver wins 28-24 to go 6-2 and take first place in the AFC West.
that was an amazing ending!!
