    If watching two perpetually underachieving franchises with lousy defenses that all of12 people care about battle it out, then yes. It was spectacular.

    I watched two QB's performing at a high level. I was thoroughly entertained.

    They're simulcasting at least two MNF games this year, the next one is also an ESPN+ABC broadcast.

    However, the Bills game was top notch football. 10/10, would watch again.

    I was being a dick. Daniels looks pretty damn good.

    I guess the Bills game was great if you’re a Bills fan. Otherwise it was a lopsided shitfest.

    And I still have a grudge against the Bills from the fight I had with a bunch of Bills fans years ago. Both my memory and my physique are elephantine.

    The Bills look like a juggernaut. I wonder when Trevor Lawrence gets the fuck out of Jax if he'll do any better, or if the "generational prospect" just isn't as good as all the scouts made him seem.

    I'm cautiously optimistic about the Jets.

    Also, I got Malik Nabers on my fantasy team, and I'd win the league tomorrow if I got points for highlight reels. Holy shit!

    I think he is a good player with a lot of physical talent who was simply overhyped. The guy was going to be the next Peyton Manning starting in high school, going to be drafted #1 as a freshman. He's had games where he looks like a very good quarterback.

    Just doesn't seem like he's quite the GOAT prospect, which would be okay except it looks to me like the play calling is bad, the O-line is terrible, and they decided to pay him $55 million/year two years before they had to.

    I haven't seen any football from the guy that suggests he'll turn into the prospect he was touted as, but I think there are plenty of situations where he could be successful. Unfortunately he won't be the first or last decent football player who got bogged down by a shit team with shit leadership, because those teams are so often at the front of the draft.

    Speaking of shit teams... Boy, Bryce Young looks like shit.

    Injuries is what you have when players are playing too many games over too many seasons. It will only get worse

    The Jets fired their coach. Nice job Rodgers.

    Wasn't Woody the owner when Belichick decided he would rather coach the Patriots?

    Today’s Bears/Commanders game was perfect for a non-fan who tuned in at the last 20 seconds.

    It's unbelievable that the entire Bears defense forgot how to play a Hail Mary. Your first job is to make sure nobody gets behind you.
