Week 2 Other Games Thread

Wow Raiders hold on to win.

[Anti-Polar Bear]

You should put $100+ on KC to make sure you are a winner.

Unfortunately, too late. Can only bet on Oneida properties in Green Bay. 30 minute drive from where I’m at. Game has started.

Here's the YahooSports headline. I love it.

"Jets outlast Titans despite inconsistent play from Aaron Rodgers-led passing game"

Apparently he threw mostly just short stuff, as if he were a backup QB new to a team trying to get by.

i looked at the box score after our game ended, he had 116 yards and 2 tds late in the 4th quarter before their last drive

i know one of his td "passes" was pretty much a forward handoff

ARod throws for less than 200 yards but 2 TDs in the Jets win.

Rodgers went 18/30 and 176 yards. Both TDs were on throws to the RBs who did most of the work (although they were nice throws). Titans did Titans-y things, and despite having a chance to tie didn't.

It looks like Rodgers is mentally sharp and still has a decent arm, but he can't escape the pocket anymore. I have a hard time thinking he'll play all 17 games. Also, he still does the bleed the clock down thing and ad-libs with his secret signal offense. Hackett's not going to stop him.

Brealon Allen and Breece Hall had decent games.

For TEN, Calvin Ridley played well and looks fast. I'm skeptical of GB's chances on the road next week, but if Hafley can force Will Levis into exceeding his bonehead quota, anything is possible. Out of habit ("The Barry Effect") I just expect lower tier starting QBs to have career days against the D.

Zebras botched the spot on the punt at the end of the first half in KC/CIN, costing the Bengals almost three full yards and pinning them down at the one-yard line. Had this resulted in a safety, it would have been one of the most egregious calls of the year.

Gunner threw the ball back in from the end zone, and it was downed at the four. Inexplicably, the referees placed the ball exactly at the one.

[King Friday]

This could wind up being one of extreme parity in the league, given the results from the first two weeks. I’m guessing most survival pools are already down to a handful of people.

[Anti-Polar Bear]

Bullshit DPI on Cin on 4th and 16 that woulda put the game away. Cin DB was playing the damn ball.

The NFL is rigged.

[MadtownPacker]

It looked early Tank.

Can’t believe the NFL let NBC run the Hernandez movie commercial during the SNF pregame.

[texaspackerbacker]

Yeah, the reply showed obvious PI. They owed it to the Chiefs to call it close after the shaky hands to the face call a play earlier.

Bears wearing orange tonight. Looks like the Bengals or Browns out there.

Worse. They look like creamsicles.

But Caleb Williams looks good. Uh oh.

[smuggler]

Bears player pokes his fingers into a Texans' players helmet, gets shoved. Texan gets penalized. Thats a bitch move and dude should have his finger broken and his mouth busted for that shit. Zebras fucked up.

[smuggler]

Thankfully, same Bears player got smoked for a TD on the next play.

[Fritz]

Bwahahahaha!

[smuggler]

#9 on the Bears is a huuuuge faggot. I can hardly stand to watch this game because that guy is like Michael Irvin out there.
