So the winless Giants come to Cleveland .....

.... and are winless no longer!

You're welcome, Giants fans. We appreciate you tried to lose by immediately giving us the ball, but we insisted.

Thank you.

We need all the help we can get.

Very late to the party this year, but hello everyone. H-Town here and the bulls are finally on parade.

A big loss to the Vikings yesterday who bossed it and pressured CJ from the start. Our Week 2 Power Ranking #3 rank was always looking generous.

Still, 2 wins from the first 3 will more than do for the fans. Young QB, young HC, young team.

Sometimes you win, sometimes you learn.

We'll take the L and experience points.

Broncos with an unexpected but welcome win against the Buccs.

Feels slight harsh to see my Falcons 1-2 so far. Huge improvement from last year. Saints, buccs and Panthers next so would be nice to get through those at least 3-3

As a Bucs fan for over 30 years, it's refreshing to be back to beating good teams then loosing convincingly to worse ones. Almost like another sporting team I know.

(Though at least this season Albion seem to be managing draws)

WAY TO GO BROWNS, BLAH BLAH BLAH....😐

Tuesday Morning Reaction GIF by The Secret Life Of Pets


Teller likely headed to IR, adding to an already decimated OL, Garrett battling foot injuries & likely to miss time, Defense made Danny Dimes look like an All Pro on Sunday, theres no run game without Chubb, a tepid pass attack, Dorsey under fire as OC, yet Teflon Stefanski calls the plays...

...but its OK as we are getting a new shiny indoor stadium.

Lets just call the season off now shall we?

It's a bleary-eyed but beautiful morning in Commanders-land today. What a game that was. Just about as near perfect rookie QB performance as you could ever hope to see from Jayden Daniels, sensational. The offence as a whole stepped up, the O Line gave Daniels the protection that he needed, and the RBs the holes they needed. The Receivers and Tight Ends caught everything thrown their way and Terry McLaurin is back baby! Kliff Kingsbury called a superb game and we were actually fun to watch.

Obviously the flip side is that we needed the perfect offence as our D had no answer to Burrow and Chase or indeed the Bengals run game.

Absolutely buzzing and a day of victory podcasts to help drag me through the work day awaits! #RaiseHail

My Texans edge a close one at home against DFP's Jags with a last minute TD.

Could've gone either way, so it's 3-1 with some reservations about how good we actually are.

Having been taught a lesson on the road last week by the Vikings, the Bills next up should be equally tough and revealing.

Don't know anything about the Cleveland game other than we lost to the Raiders.

I don't think I want to know anything either. Suffice to say my prediction that the Browns won't win the Superbowl is looking pretty good.

Far more satisfying for the Bears this week. The D stayed good (game ending pick included) while Williams finally seems to be hooking up the O.

Watch us lose next week now I said that.

Big win yesterday. They are giving me hope and I hate them for it. Algeier was immense.

You guys aren't looking too shabby!

Bucs had a great win yesterday, albeit against an injury riddled Eagles. 3-1 going into TNF against your lot. We've got back to back division match ups against Falcons/Saints and I'll be happy to come out of that 1-1.

NFC South are no longer the joke of the league! (Although the Panthers are certainly trying their best :LOL: )

@Brovion may not want to know anything, but Im gonna say it anyway:

24/32, 176yds, 1TD, 1 INT....against the *$*£((&% Raiders!

Again, a short yardage, safe gameplan that a UDFA QB could probably control. We are paying a predator MILLIONS to be a game manager, not a superstar. FFS.

Jerome Ford, 10 rushes for 58 yds. He was gaining ground, we were 10-0 up....why did we move away from the run game, AGAIN.

Putting it on Watsons shoulders is obviously not working - yet Stefanski fails to see that, week in - week out.

Last year with Flacco showed what the Browns should be. This year is yet another massive step back just to accommodate HIM and it really F'ckin grinds my gears..

Im done with this team until they CUT or TRADE him away.

I think I may still be drunk. What was I watching yesterday, was that a................ football team wearing Washington uniforms, who the hell are these imposters. Absolutely stunning performance from the Commanders. The offense continued its progress but to see the much maligned defense join the party was a thing of beauty.

Jayden Daniels, what can I say, this is the best I have felt about this team since 2012 and Jayden is clearly much better than Robert.

Kudos to Quinn, Kingsbury and De Witt this is looking like a well coached team, I have literally no frame of reference on how to handle this. Just stunned!

Well thanks for that! :lolol:

Yeah, still a lot wrong. And talking of Joe Flacco I see he was still good enough to beat the Steelers, wish we'd stuck with him. The only crumb of comfort I'm getting is that at least our Faustian pact is backfiring, thus bringing the happy day when Watson leaves that bit closer..
