    How bout "Old Man" Flacco? Over 300 yards, 33 points!

    Yet another example as to. why Cincy should trade Burrow, get some defensive pieces in place and find a younger QB who can direct the offense

    Chase would have to go too or hed be furious. How would you even do that the next 10 years of first and 2nd round picks?

    After last night's game Chase would be fine, I don't even think Burrow ever fed him all those targets before.

    It's all right in last night's game, Cincy has a legit offense the D is the issue, they could get multiple first rounders for Burrow.

    I like Burrow but the kid gets hurt, it's just the way it is and moving on from him wouldn't be the worst idea for the haul they'd get

    For sure Chase makes any QB better but the relationship with him and Burrow needs to be considered as well. They played together in college and Burrow played a role in getting Chase drafted to the team. When Burrow is healthy they still run LSU plays from time to time.

    Chase even went door to door offering to buy peoples houses to live in Burrows neighborhood after he was drafted. He was successful and Im not aware of anything that either have moved. Even their parents are very good friends with each other, Theres just no way Chase wouldnt be pissed off if Burrow was traded

    last night's loss wasn't on Rodgers -- he threw 4 touchdowns. and Jaylen Warren went wild on the ground.

    it's called having no clue how to stop the other team

    Steelers gave up almost 500 total yards to 500-year-old Joe Flacco in his second game in tiger stripes

    no answer for Ja'Marr Chase the entire game

    zero chance of them making the super bowl playing defense like that

    Rogers did not help his cause with the 2 INT's which led to Cincinnati scores.

    I thought Flacco did just fine. It's like I've said all along about the guy, he's gonna throw the occasional INT but with an OL that can block and receivers that get open and don't drop the passes, he's fine. The Browns did those thing two years ago when they had him, this year the OL sucks and the receivers can't seem to hold onto the ball.

    As for the Steelers, I thought Rodgers did a great job. He can still read defenses and throw the ball with the best QB's in the NFL. The problem is the Head Coach. Pittsburgh is where they end up every season, this year a little earlier than usual. Do fans want a team that always has a winning record or do they want a team that can do something in the playoffs?? Tomlin will save his "never had a losing record" reputation but he has really let the fans down. He's had some ultra-talented teams and squandered their talent. There are several HC's like him around the NFL right now, successful from a won/loss perspective but little else.

    My short list of teams who should change Head Coaches is now at 5 and I haven't even started to really think about it:
    Cleveland
    Pittsburgh
    Buffalo
    Cincinnati
    Baltimore

    There comes a time when a franchise becomes stagnant.

    As a light but steady rain falls in Cleveland the Dolphins battle the Browns in a battle of ineptitude between these two juggernauts of the basement, battling for the coveted 1st pick in the 2026 Draft.

    Go Dolphins!!! >:)

    OK - so why would Atlanta go for it on 4th down instead of kicking the field goal to tie? Then they throw a sideline pass that was almost picked off! FIXED! :D

    Lots of complaining in Minnesota about Wentz.
    One touchdown pass called back for a holding penalty, another that looked good called incomplete.
    I'm not a big Wentz fan, but those were not his fault.
    He was hit just as he was throwing on the pick 6. Not sure if he saw the guy coming underneath.

    I do not think he is very accurate with his passes though. Seems like our receivers are always diving or leaping to get to the ball. Is this something he is known for? His completion % seems good, but receivers having to slow down, leap high into the air or dive for the ball would seem to limit the potential yards after catch.

    I never even heard of "Bad Bunny" before................

    "NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell confirmed that the league isn't considering dropping Bad Bunny as its Super Bowl LX Halftime Show headliner while addressing reporters at the league's annual fall owners meeting on Wednesday (October 22)."

    “He’s one of the leading and most popular entertainers in the world. That’s what we try to achieve," Goodell said via NFL Network's Mike Garafolo before adding that the decision was "carefully throught through" and “we’re confident it’s going to be a great show and that he understands the platform that he’s on. I think it’s going to be exciting and a united moment.”

    You're not exactly his target demographic but he's legit one of the top three or four artists worldwide. He's had 113 singles in the top 100 and his second album is certified 24x platinum. I can't say I know even one song of his but I do know he's a big, big name.

    Vikings game last night was disgusting.

    KOC is not a great coach - likely a great guy. Not to be conflated.

    He should have been yanked off the sidelines, sent to the showers and had his play placard burned.

    Yet, that was one of 10 things wrong with happened last night. Too many words would need to be used to the debacle that I witnessed last night. All said, the fan base reach a new low & despair has set in.

    Brutal game.

    Both offensive tackles out. Playing a back up guard at center, and a rookie at one guard.

    I have been saying they need a good offensive line for several years. They finally were putting one together, now decimated by injuries.

    I have never thought KOC was a good in game coach. He didn't do anything to change my mind last night.

    Defense actually didn't play that bad. Herbert's running killed us. I texted one of my fellow Vikings fans. "I hate playing against running quarterbacks"!
