This is week #7:

All those teams that are 3-3 and 3-2 need to win and start pulling away.

The games to watch this week for me will be:

NO (4-1) vs BAL (4-2)
CIN (4-1) vs KC (5-1)
NE (4-1) vs CHI (3-2) Maybe CHI can hand NE their 2nd loss

At this rate, pretty soon the halftime entertainment will be Milos and his Polka Madcaps.

Where did this kid come from?

A future Dan Marino, Joe Montana, Peyton Manning, John Elway?

He came from Texas Tech. The school had a crappy program while he was there. So he was not able to raise them from the bottom part of the Big 12 standings. The Chiefs noted his talent and drafted him 10th overall in 2017. He played behind Alex Smith last year, playing only the last game of the season while KC rested many key players prior to the playoffs.

He looks sensational to me and seems to be a unique talent. It doesn't hurt that he has a good team around him with plenty of quality skill position players. Andy Reid is having a lot of fun destroying teams with this kid. I've seen him make some incredible throws.

We are likely going to see some divisions won by mediocre teams. the NFC East and AFC South are looking really weak. It is hard to evaluate the AFC North and the NFC North. I think the Bears are pretty good. They were missing Khalil Mack today. It is still early enough for some teams to get it together and go on winning streaks.

It is still looking very much like the Rams will face the Chiefs or the Patriots in the Super Bowl. The Niners are dog meat and had no chance this week. They do get to play the Cardinals, Raiders, and Giants, which gives them a chance at a few more wins. I pity the Bills.

F*ck the Raiders.

Not only is he good, he is also able to complete long passes out of the pocket while at the same time eluding tacklers and pressure plus he reads the field real well being able to anticipate defensive plays.

Watched a couple of games yesterday, with the Titans yet again losing a game they should of won, strangest of all was going for two and making a mess of it, why not take the pat and go for OT, especially as your D has totally dominated the second half.

Moving onto to the Cows and the Skins, inept does not even begin to describe it, the possibility that one of these two will win the East is frightening. My thoughts on Gruden have been mentioned before, nothing has changed in five years he needs to go.

And the Giants just looked pitiful tonight!

I know the schedule is made months in advance before the start of each pre-season but is it just my imagination or is it the same handful of teams that are always on Monday Night Football, Sunday Night Football and Thursday Night Football?

Next Monday is New England again.

I had to do a double take when I saw that Derek Anderson was starting for the Bills this past weekend, it was a 'he's still in the NFL?!' moment. And I see he's starting this coming weekend as well.

I am so very tired of the goddamn Atlanta Falcons costing me money by not covering the spread. They even let the pitiful New York Giants back into the the game and only managed to score 23 points with their abundance of offensive stars. Heads should roll this off season.
