Started watching NFL after a 20 year hiatus so I have something to talk to my dad* about that doesn’t involve Trump, and my early impressions of this season are that
The Chiefs can go undefeated in the regular season. Mahomes is that good.
Pats will of course be in the playoffs.
Love Saquan Barkley, but I am worried (as a closet Giants fan) that the biggest comparison that can be made with him and Barry Saunders is that Barkley could be the best RB in the league but he’s on a weak team. The new QB could prove me wrong.
My brother is a big Raiders fan and spent the whole summer talking up how great Antonio Brown is. Fucking LOL, that worked out well.
*my dad is a Cowboys fan. Also has a soft spot for the Patriots. And Trump. The trifecta of wrong. Arrrghhh.

Please anyone but the Pats.
Ugh.
Are you sure he's your dad? You know, Birther and all that?
Now with Vantez Burfict (sp?, another player my brother was hyping) getting canned it’s reminded me that schadenfreude is perhaps the best thing about sports. Especially if your own team sucks.
That was the kiss of death...
...49ers looking good...
Week 6 - Detroit absolutely fucked by the refs.
I’ve noticed with the new Giants QB, it’s like he doesn’t like Saquon Barkley. They call very few running plays now, and rarely pass to him. Eli used to always look for a short pass to Barkley if all his downfield receivers were covered, and Barkley would do the rest. Very frustrating to watch the Giants’ best player being ignored.
Bills @ Kansas best... game, ever?
I shit you not, after the Bills took the lead with 13 seconds left, I joking texted my brother that I wanted a FG and overtime. Ain't no joke for Mahomes Magic.
I was rooting for the Bills but I knew 13 seconds for Mahomes is an eternity.
Chiefs lost that close FG in the first half, so the Bills were lucky to still be in it later on. Allen Davis were awesome. Ghost of Frank Reich right there. They just needed more of that D.
Gotta be KC on the the other side. They are not the best version of themselves but Mahomes is the difference.
I ride for Mahomes, but in terms of continued drama and storyline, Bengals victory would really cap a great playoffs.
Rams vs Benglas would be nice.
I agree Stafford is an upgrade over Goff, but the Rams have traded away their better picks for some time, so he better still have 10 years in him. Whatever SHADY's secret is, it works.
MAGA-hat-wearing-cocksucker Brady is retiring.
Lock up your daughters.
Now it’s down to the coin toss again.
