Presumably most of you are asleep while the Saints bucs game is going on.

If you've spent the last two decades hating Tom Brady and/or the bucs you're in for a treat(certainly in the first half, second is yet to be played...).

I think Seattle have done a pooh load of West to East travel, so far this season.
It was always going to catch up with them at some point.

Even as a Seahawks fan, I don't think we can use that as an excuse!

We were piss poor last night, the secondary was an absolute joke and we more than paid the price.

We'll probably still make the playoffs. This was game 3 of a tough 5-game stretch (Cardinals, 49ers, Bills, Rams, Cardinals). We went into it 5-0, and we're currently 1–2 in it. After that we have a run of 4 very winnable games (Eagles, Jets, Giants, Washington), so I'd imagine us to be something like 10–4 or 9–5 after all that is over. Which should be enough to make post-season, but I can't see us going much further unless we have a lot of luck.

We've got a great offense with three real stars (Wilson, Lockett, Metcalf) that's capable of pulling magic out the hat, but the defense is shocking and not worthy of Super Bowl contenders.

Completely agree. Can't keep relying on Russell and the offense to dig us out of a 30+ point hole.

It was going to come and bite us on the arse sooner or later.

So he's good enough to beat the Football Team but nobody else in the league.

It seems like The Football Team could get done under false advertising.

I haven't seen the Bills play for a while, as my team (Seattle) rarely plays them, so last night was the first time I'd watched Josh Allan play a full game.

Couldn't help thinking again what on earth made NY pick Daniel Jones over Josh Allan...

My Texans just about won another game to make it 2-6. We can't seem to beat anyone else other than the Jags.

But in 73 year old Romeo Crennel, we do have the oldest Head Coach in history

To put it in perspective, he's older than Roy Hodgson. :ohmy:

I enjoyed the game, some nice play by the offence but another L in the quest to Tank for Trevor. Really need the Jets to get a W somewhere though, otherwise it’s going to be Justin Fields.

Watched the Game in 40 on GamePass this morning. Was surprised at how badly Brady's game fell apart when he was put under pressure with some very poor decision making. I guess it shows how good the Pats protection was for him over the years.

On the topic of protection, Steelers did a great job of protecting big Ben in the second half when he was playing on one leg and still getting things done.

Oh, so close J-E-T-S.....good game offensively, but they will be gutted to give up the walk off FG at the end.

I picked up Jakobi Meyers & Rex Burkhead on Sunday night for my fantasy team, & they both had great games, especially Meyers who went 16 for 169!
