Buffalo vs Baltimore WOW!! One heck of a come back !! Packers ride earlier scoring to a win over Detroit! All said, it's early , very early in the season.
I said to my wife before the 4th quarter "this game is far from over". The Eagles, Ravens, Bills all look great (as usual). I am very interested in how the Bears young team performs tonight. They wowed in the pre-season.
Wow, 4 teams? I've always rooted for 2 different NFL teams and I thought that was "cheating". (I will not name them because they both stink).
I use to be a one team guy - whatever team Tom Brady was on. The Pats and then the Bucs. Yes I know many dislike him. But nothing was given to him on a silver platter. Fought all four years in college to be a starter. Then draft pick 199. A slow white boy who couldn’t scramble. Not much was expected out of him except by himself and then look what he achieved.
Packers WON! Has anyone other than myself noted the addition to the helmet for protection? I believe that they stated last year on a limited amount. Concussions nothing to play with!
TONIGHT Packers & Commanders Hope you have Amazon !
Love the NFL. Hope I don’t offend anyone but my four favorite teams are the Bills, Bengals, 49ers, and Ravens.
I have the same favorites. Teams that I love to watch perform. I will add KC and Philly to that list, at present. My wife has taken a huge interest in the NFL over the past decade.

I don't dislike him and a person or player. But, I do dislike dynasties in general, I tend to root for underdogs. His skill is not to be understated. He has impressed me as a commentator, thoughtful, well-spoken and knowledgable. I think I appreciate him more now.

I used to root only for the hometown team, then in search of more NFL entertainment, I started branching out. I discovered more and more teams worthy of admiration.
I like watching young teams evolve too. Jackson, Purdy, Mahomes, Love, Allen, that sort of thing.
Each year there is a sleeper team that comes to the fore. I am wondering if this year it will be the Packers, The past two years with Love they have been really good but not quite elite. This year they may just be elite. And now they have Parsons.

Yep, I did not see them coming on so fast and strong. And I am disappointed with the Bears, so far. The wife is a packer's fan. We were discussing the rankings before the season started, and that they would change a lot once the games began.
Broncos, then Brady/Patriots for a long while and Brady/Tampa. I even rooted for Brady when playing the Broncos. My friends gave me a lot of noise for that. He was amazing, 10 super bowls in 23 years, that's crazy. He was so accurate passing. I even spent way too much money for front row seats against the Panthers his next to last or last year. Now back to the Broncos.
I used to like him too until he started spouting wacky theories and taunting opposing teams fans. I might expect that from some young running back. But, not a mature QB.
The question now is can he make it through an entire season.
Your Packers got robbed today. Great game to watch though. I said to my wife around the 3:45 mark, "this game isn't over". About 10 seconds later, the Browns intercepted.
Down 2 offense linemen lead to a poor game plan by coaching. They had a better game plan & hat's off to the Browns! Did you catch tail end of TB & Jets. A player jumps over the pile on FG try & blocks it in his chest & it's returned for a TD. To bad TB comes back to win on last second FG! Eagle - LVR had a blocked FG returned for a game winning TD. Watching Da Bears beating up Cowboys!
Yeah, that jump was something! Great day for football. First the Packers, then Bears, and finally the Chiefs tonight. Perfect Sunday lineup for me. The wife found a $128 brisket, marked own to $20, as it had to be sold. So, smoked brisket - old school on the Weber kettle with a side of Sweet Baby Ray's.
And the Bears are playing like the team I thought they could be!

Interesting game. The Vikings were AWOL in the first half and the Bears were in the second. Maybe neither team wanted to be there.
Hope you have Amazon !
Enjoy the game, Derf

The Steelers would also fit in there, and will again, as soon as they get rid of Rodgers.
P.S. I do own a jersey with his #.

Weirdly, what I admired about him at one time, was his apparent levelheadedness. That went right down the crapper.
