Roger godell and 95% of the country was hoping for the same thing. Cards let the nation down.
I must have been watching a different game, I thought this was a good entertaining game with lots of offense, back and forth lead changes and some nice QB play. Maybe the Twitter feed I was watching had an alternate universe game on though
How so? Clearly, One of the two AFC teams were going to win the game (provided they didn't succumb to the dreaded tie)
The Jets looked very good, though Fitzpatrick looked a bit shaky in the first half with those balls getting stripped.
So what happened to the Bills vaunted defense, clearly they were supposed to go to the Super Bowl since Rex brought his defensive genius brother on board, after seeing how great of a job he did in New Orleans

And Dallas!
I posted that at halftime when the game was a train wreck from both sides. I stand by my statements, I don't think either of them can beat the Patriots.How so? Clearly, One of the two AFC teams were going to win the game (provided they didn't succumb to the dreaded tie)

We'll see. I think the Pats had an excellent game, but its only 1 out of 16, or 1 out of 4 for Garoppolo. They had a great game last week, but they need to show up with the same level of energy this week as well.
This. By no means am I or should anyone dismiss any players' performance Week 1. As a whole, Week 1 was not football that you typically see later as the season progresses, and I'm not talking about a team being good or bad. Let's not appoint players being great or a saviour after one game especially week 1 of all weeks. Did Garoppolo have a solid outing? Yes. Did Wentz play well? Yes. But it's way too soon to tell. What happens if both those QB's bomb next week?
Well they better do it in week four because Rodgers is on bye week and Garoppolo is the back up in my fantasy team.
I thought the Jets looked really good in the second half. Their receivers are top notch and the addition of Forte to the team has solidified their running game. I think they can give the Pats a challenge to win the division.
I love Rex Ryan though, mainly because he's a players coach, is competitive, and says it like it is. In his post game press conference he said, "Brandon Marshall said he was going to kick my butt and he did." That's good stuff right there.

...And what happens today? Bills fire Greg Roman, their offensive coordinator. Yes, let's fire personnel that was part of the offense that had to put up 30+ points because your defense allowed 30+. Yup, math checks out.
That's a sign of an organization that is desperate, I mean fire the OC after two weeks into the season? Seems rather desperate to me...And what happens today?

Yup, especially since Jeff Fisher and the entire Rams offensive staff still have jobs after Monday night's embarrassment.
(Very, very, sad Rams fan ATM...)
As a Titans fan, we all would like to thank the Rams for sticking with Fisher. The #1 pick next year will be really nice

I hate you right now.

Be careful now. I'm a Titans fan and my wife is a Rams fan. Whenever I make a comment she reminds me of this...

And that one yard-line is a metaphor for Jeff Fisher's impact on the Rams - always falling short. What's old is new again...
