The Falcons are once again trying real hard to blow this.

I think the Falcons have just decided to build up 14+ leads each week and then just not try to hold it, this is the second week in a row where they've blown an easy win.

Seattle and Ravens are the best teams in the NFL right now
Seattle has given up 25+ points in each game, and over 30 in the last two games. That's just not sustainable, it reminds me of a few years ago, when New England gave up 42, 20, 33, and 33 points in its first four games, they went 2-2 in that stretch (and got really lucky in the third game), and New England only figured out their defense after that second loss. With games against San Francisco (*2), Buffalo, and the Rams (*2) still on Seattle's calendar, they better get the defense figured out before November hits, otherwise they're in for a rude awakening. Also Baltimore has played the Browns and the Texans through two weeks, those aren't quality opponents, we'll see what happens today, before I start saying Baltimore can beat other top teams.

Green Bay looks like the top NFC team, while in the AFC, whoever wins tonight's game will be considered among the top tier, but it just feels more open in the AFC this year.

To build off of this point, don't look now but KC leads 27-10 at half and will get the ball to start the second half.

Also just so this is clear, are we allowed to change our Steelers/Titans pick for the week when the game will actually be held?

Don't look now but the Eagles lead SF by 11 with around 6 minutes left to go. The NFC East is so bad that a team that looked hopeless coming into this week could be 6 min away from getting 1st place in the division. Meanwhile, if this holds, SF's only wins this year would have came against the Giants and the Jets, to me the injuries seem to definitely be getting to them.

The NFC East is pathetic, It wouldn't surprise me if 7-9 wins it this year.

This has actually happened semi recently, the Carolina Panthers back in 2015 won the South with a 6-9-1 record, so yeah bad teams can still make the playoffs

Broncos-Patriots moved to Monday...

Both of these games are still in week 5, for now at least.
The NFL should also give the Patriots a bye, at this point, and let them get this sorted out, if the Titans got a bye and were fine, New England should also get one. EDIT: New England literally has a Week 6 bye, so moving this game one week up should be a no-brainer



This is just such a mess, the NFL really needs to do better at containing the virus than doing this

The Vikings' decision to not kick that field goal was one of the worst decisions this season.

Buffalo isn't that good, Allen was lucky those weeks he finally played a real team, they will lose against Chiefs

I don't often agree with your takes, but this 100%, I also can't wait until New England sweeps them again and everyone then declares that they "expected it to happen."

This could be the year the Cleveland Browns make it to the playoffs since 2002.
I mean we all also said that at the beginning of last year, but it looks like they've figured out last year's problems, but that thrashing by Baltimore still lingers. Their game against Pittsburgh this week is big.

That is not how I expected our first flex to go. Also AZ's first SNF appearance since Week 7 of 2016 which ended in a 6-6 tie and also featured the same teams! Maybe things are just cyclical and we all live in a cycle...

The ARI/SEA game was won by AZ with just 15 sec left in OT, good game, though honestly I felt it would go to a tie. Also Pittsburgh is now the only undefeated team.

Cincinnati and Minnesota could pull early upsets, and it looks like very few people picked either. In fact, it looks like no one picked the Vikings and only Politics Fan picked Cincinnati, also Rams are down three possessions to Miami, we could be in for a bunch of upsets
