    Browns RB Nick Chubb out for the season (bits of talk that it's a potential career-ender not just a season-ender).

    Having seen the way his knee bent, I wouldn’t be thinking about this season.

    Apparently he's not in great health and is stepping away to deal with it.

    You'd think it is but with how fast the front seven are getting to the QB it isn't as bad for them this season to this point.

    Deebo the star of the show tonight, just caught his TD to go with his 129 receiving yards. He only has 2 rushing yards.

    And the patriot if they lose on Sunday will go 0-3 for the first time since 2000 which is why I don’t see it happening as I cant see Bill Belichick allowing that to happen if he can help it. It’s only happened once.

    Lucky they wont be facing Rodgers or I'd say they'd be breaking that streak whether Bill wanted to allow it or not.

    I dont see it being possible they lose to Wilson having time to prepare - if they do it would have to be seen as one of the lowest points in Bill's career

    Well the jets and patriots was scheduled to the 6pm game on sky sports this week but they put a poll up and asked people what game would replace it.

    well probably would be a low point seeing as it’s only happened once as I said and that was in the first season under him.

    Bill concentrates on what part of an offense needs to be stopped to give his team the best chance to win. This one is simple, stop the run and it's very likely you win.

    Chiefs stopped the run and the Jets scored ten points. Bills didn't stop the run and the Jets scored 22.

    When's the last time someone scored 70? And two players scored 4TD each?

    The last team I think was the then redskins in 1966 when they scored 72.

    I am not sure I have seen quite so many lobsided games.

    5/14 games were within one score.

    Also Cousins on pace for 6K yards, 51 TDs and 0-17 is ridiculous.

    Three games into the regular season. The Ravens have to be cursed.

    When you see the Dolphins scoring 70 points that scenario seems quite plausible. 🤣

    To be 28-7 up and manage to lose a game is somehow even more humiliating than to just get a hammering. What a **** team, coaches, and management they've assembled

    Great teams find a way to win in those type of games.

    Pleasantly surprised with the Ravens' performance against the #1 defence in the league in Cleveland, and a good bounce back from last week's loss to the Colts.

    It was definitely made easier, but the Ravens have a lot of injuries, were so blunt and mistake prone last week, it was anything but a given.

    It's mad that Lamar had less than 200 passing yards and only 27 rushing yards and managed two passing and two rushing TDs.

    It's like everything just went their way.
