Washington Post reckons that about 35% of the crowd were Cowboy supporters yesterday.

Cowboys are a bit like Utd with a nationwide fanbase - all that America's team stuff. Just insane that many tickets were available for people to buy.

I'd say Chargers have a colour closest to sky blue.

Shush.

Was here earlier.said Cousins blew it and sleepy 1st quarter defence (another hangover from last season).
Still confident we'll be ahead of you by end of season.

said nice things about Packers last week. Your defence has improved.
Just believe we threw the game away when we were running the ball so easily on your lot.
And again our fault for not sorting out a kicker.

you had a period where RB did damage but even then you superior defence won red zone battle

couldnt live with 1st quarter offense either

2-0 a great start but not getting carried away. but for sure hoping for 10-6 finish minimum. broncos at home next then philly away

If our offense can start firing the we'll be a force to be reckoned with. Just look a bit short at the moment offensively though. Rodgers still doesn't look quite himself (aside from a brief period early on).

Brown released by Pats after latest issues. Normally would be done until all the issues are cleared up but this is the NFL.

Lol whats he done now. Dont tell me he missed training already for pats?

 

[CanadianCCFC]

Good first half, 20-10 up in Philadelphia. Defence looking good.

 

[tisza]

Comfortable win over Raiders.

Strong start for NFC North teams, especially if we (Lions) can hold on here.

Blocked field goal returned a long way FFS.

Boom 2-0-1 not bad boys.

Defence - the strongest division.
Offensive - most inconsistent division - week by week

Every season there's an undrafted rookie that makes a statement. Harris from the Saints looks like this year's. He's electric.

Browns Rams asks questions.
Rams struggle to get past a Browns side missing 8 starters including entire secondary.
Browns could be one of those sides that builds through the season into a real threat to anyone in the post season.

Their OL needs serious improvement, I think they're missing a couple of tackles but Baker has had little to no protection in the first 3 weeks.

Always a difficult start for them. Probably toughest schedule for 1st half of the season but probably easiest schedule for 2nd half.
Baker doesn't help his o line by often holding the ball too long.

 

[Otis]

I am not even up to half-time yet, having recorded it, but this is complete torture and it looks like it is going to be a long hard season ahead for the Skins.

 

[Otis]

Fumbles, dropped catches, interceptions, missed field goals, three turnovers. Not even half-time.

Textbook how not to play a football game.

 

[Otis]

4 turnovers and counting.

 

[Otis]

Ummm....5.

Keenum trying to get Haskins a game

 

[CCFC88]

MNF Skins strike again, scoreboard doesn't even do justice to the gulf in those teams last night.

Sure I heard some "lets go Haskins" chants last night, glad we didn't feed him to that Bears defence last night but the Giants game next week could be his calling.

Two rookie QBs going at it in the basement battle of the NFC East. On a positive, McLaurin looks like a real find. Having played together at Ohio State they should be on the same page already.

My main reservation with Haskins is that he's only started 14 college games so I think they'd like to give him longer, may be a situation where we pick and choose the games to play him in, could be that we wait till after the Patriots game and start him in Miami wk6.

It cant be forgotten just how good that Bears defence is, Keenum wont be the last QB to come away from a game this season against the bears with figures like that.

 

[covcity4life]

GB 3-0!!!!!!!! woooh DEFENCE

 

[tisza]

Haskins won't get a game. Lamb to the slaughter with that protection.
McCoy supposedly close to being ready.
That Bears defence is going to hurt a lot of sides. Let's see how Cousins holds up against them this week.
I'd be just as concerned about a defence that Chicago offense look good.
Hardly a shock result against a probable playoff team.

green bay beat chicago. humbled their attack.outshone their defence

but you dont talk about packers just act like bears are second coming

ABP?

anyone but packers?

 

[CCFC88]

Packers>Bears from what I've seen so far, got out to early leads and controlled games from the front, beaten 2 of their division rivals, can't ask for much more than that.

Disagree on Bears offence, lot of work to do their if their to match/better last season, 3 of their 4 TD's yesterday came from turnovers.

Expect them to have a tough time moving the ball on the Vikings next week.
