The Redskins score touchdowns and win on the road as Smith and Petersen head towards a first Superbowl win.

Ever the optimist.

I'm afraid it will be a long year for Bills fans, but at least your team will not be relocating to Las Vegas next year.

Khalil Mack looked good for the Bears, didn't he?

The Los Angeles 'Judases' continued their tradition of the past few years - horrid special teams play, dropped potential TD passes, and losing to the Kansas City Chiefs. They aren't even able to fill that measly soccer stadium, even with half of the 'crowd' being made up of KC supporters.
At least they probably won't duplicate last year's 0-4 start, as they face the hapless Bills next week.

Buffalo is down 14-0 against the L.A. Chargers.

Are the Bills planning to play some football anytime in this lifetime when the season is still young?

IMO, the Bills are doing the best they can with the players currently on the roster and the skills of this coaching staff. I was tempted to bet on the Chargers, but giving 7.5 points to a home team after being crushed at home is a little too reckless for my blood. But, I do plan to regularly bet on the Bills opponents.

There are a lot of very mediocre teams in the NFL right now. Some former quality teams appear to have slipped and it does not appear that several younger teams are well coached enough to step up. I was 2 -2 last week, but took some risks and may get beat up badly in week 2. (KC, NYJ, NE, NYG)

28-13 in the 3rd, now.

Looks like the Bills are trying a bit.

Never underestimate the Chargers ability to blow a lead. Plus, Joey Bosa is out with an injury.

The kicker for the Vikings may not have a job anymore.

He missed 3 FG today out of 3 attempts including 2 of them in OT, both of them could had been a game winner.

They hung on to win 31-20.

A very clever ploy by Jay Gruden reverting to last years playbook and only scoring FG when getting near or in the red zone. He realises the Colts will be the AFC representative in the next Superbowl, has kept our new plays in his back pocket while learning the Colts strengths.
