- Packers over 49ers
The Niners overtook the Broncos for the most demolished team in the league and now they’re barely competitive at all. Remember last year when the Packers were a “soft 13-3”? Yeah. - Giants over WaFoo
Oh god Alex Smith is actually the starter now. Someone less Jewish come teach me how to cross myself because that’s the vibe. - Titans over Bears
Remember when the Bears had a game in Seattle and they like punted on 16 straight drives? How does this franchise so thoroughly avoid having an offense? - Vikings over Lions
Dalvin Cook. That is all. As in that is all that was working, for either team and on either side of the ball. Cook pulled an Adrian Peterson, but luckily for us he is a much better person. - Chiefs over Panthers
Enjoy this year, Panthers. It’s fun when the expectations are low. - Texans over Jaguars
Winning is nice but it’s not a good sign when you can only beat the Jags, and even then it’s against some guy named Jake Luton and you have to stop a last-minute 2-point try. - Ravens over Colts
The Ravens’ first win in Indy, I guess, and the highlight is Philip Rivers totally imploding trying to make a tackle on a fumble return. - Bills over Seahawks
That shitty Seahawks defense, just when it looked like it was finally making progress, caught up with Seattle. The NFC West race is gonna be fascinating down the stretch. - Falcons over Broncos
Fuck. If you ever have to play the Falcons, you should demand to be scheduled in the first 5 weeks of the season. That’s when they struggle. And if you ever play the Broncos, demand that it’s after 2016 because it’s been really easy to beat us since then. - Raiders over Chargers
Even the instant replay can make a comeback against the artists formerly known as San Diego! - Steelers over Cowboys
Only Mike Tomlin could make this game so close, and only Mike McCarthy could make the in-game decisions the Cowboys made in this one. And only Roethlisberger would make such a big stink about an injury and then come back in to play. Asshole. - Dolphins over Cardinals
The age of the tiny, mobile QB is upon us. Russell Wilson started it, but Kyler and now Tua are really making it stick. The Dolphins are looking like a playoff team after half a season, how whack is that? - Saints whoop up on them Bradys!
Well damn this was a cathartic one! Trump is out, let’s try to feel some happiness! - Pats over Jets
After watching this game I will never make fun of Madden for being unrealistic.
