Dallas winning 7 games: over or under????

Don't look now but I think the Ravens might choke this...

and I'll gladly take the over if the question was changed to "Baltimore choking games while leading: over or under"

Ravens survived and eeked out a 28-25 win despite being up by 28-6 at mid 3rd quarter. Think Tom Brady may have willed the Mavs to win in that situation  ;D

3rd and 5th at KC 6 with 4:12 to go down 22-17...there was a blatant pass interference penalty that wasn't called with defenders wrapping around Kyle Pitts in the endzone. Refs bailed the Chiefs out on that. If called, would've been spot-foul and ATL gets go-ahead TD to make it a 25-22 (assume 2-pt conversion good) ATL lead.

Then they go for 4 and turn over on downs. This is the thing with analytics...coaches think too much and ruins a momentum. Just take the points and make it a 22-20 game. The D has been doing good slowing Mahomes down all night.

Next thing that irritates me is 4th and inches on final possession...IDK why the Falcons go for a sweep when they shoulda settled for a Kirk Cousins sneak. KC stops the sweep. Game over. Again, they have Younghoe Koo and should've kicked the 3 earlier and they could've kicked for another 3 and  win this game. And they could've also done a sneak or get them to jump offsides...instead they stretch the field far enough for inches to go, what the heck. The offensive playcalling for the Falcons was straight up malpractice. Typical Atlanta sports team meltdown.

Now I have to hear another week of the Mahomes/Kelce/Swifty Chiefs lovefest and they're about to smoke a Herbert-less Chargers team next week

Dodged a bullet by not picking against Carolina for the third week in a row in survivor pool.  Had a bad feeling about that game once it was announced that Young was benched.  Plus, you can only go to the well so many times by picking against the same team each week.

I'm the last one standing tonight.  It was down to two, most fell out week one with Cincy.  The other lost yesterday with the Raiders.  I have Cincy beating Washington tonight to win it all.

The AFC is pretty top-heavy. I think we're headed towards another BUF-KC playoff game probably in the AFCCG. Bengals are 0-2, Jags are 0-2, Ravens 1-2 and flawed, and I'm not really a believer in the Steelers yet. I guess the Texans are a threat, maybe the Jets too but only if Rodgers stays healthy and who knows if he can (plus it's the Jets, something will probably go wrong anyways lol).

A few other teams like the Dolphins are dealing with major injuries too.

Trevor Lawrence is so overrated.

Bring out Mac Jones for the second half.

Joe Burrow and the Bengals are -7.5 tonight against Washington but are trailing 21-13 at the half.

Are the Bengals overrated this year? Does that mean New England's win against them in Week 1 was nothing to brag about lol

That's probably true, overall I'd say it seems the league just is extra mediocre this year. I mean honestly, KC doesn't look that good either BUT they are 3-0 and it probably won't matter. Outside of Buffalo and maybe Houston is there another legit threat in the AFC? Even the NFC is a bit hampered with injuries and teams being inconsistent.

I think there's a real chance we could see an 8, or maybe even 7-win team in either conference make the playoffs as a 7 seed. We've seen some 8-9 records get in in recent years.

Jayden Daniels is having a hell of a night

Bengals will be in serious trouble soon if they fall to 0-3, even with Burrow

I hope we didn't whiff with Drake Maye instead of McDaniels...though we could have gotten the second incarnation of Brady and he would struggle behind our O-line of turnstiles. I just hope we don't end up ruining Maye the way we did Mac Jones.
