Rams look like the team to beat. Think if they had healthy Talib playing...

Chiefs defense isn't good enough, same for Pats and Steelers. I can see the Jaguars having the best chance to beat them.

It's early, but the Rams look like the favorites in the NFC. Tough to find a major weakness there. Nobody is doing much to separate in the AFC. I don't think anyone is taking Miami seriously yet. Everyone is in kind of a wait and see mode on the Pats. The Jags are tough but Bortles is a problem at QB. The Steelers are a neverending soap opera.

We'll see. The landscape will change drastically between now and Halloween, and then again from Halloween to Thanksgiving. It's all but a given that a team nobody's talking about right now will be a Super Bowl contender by the end of October and a team that's hot now will have the wheels come off.

How do the Rams afford this roster? They're so stacked.

It's crazy, I didn't even know they had Cooks before last night. Why the hell would the Pats give him up? A lot of their best players aren't being paid very much, I bet they lose a lot of pieces next year. Like Kupp is making $200,000 and Marcus Peters is making 1m, what a steal.

A QB on his rookie deal. But their Super Bowl window is tight. Now that Aaron Donald got his, they've got one or maybe two seasons with Goff on a cost controlled rookie deal. After that the bill comes due for him and several of their key defenders. They can still be good, but once a team has to pay their franchise contract it's next to impossible to put together a team like they have.

Cousins and Goff both made some incredible throws last night. Heck of a game if you weren't a Vikings fan

The Thursday night games have all been pretty decent so far. Much better than last year when it seemed like every Thursday nighter was a dog.

LOL. The Rams are averaging 478 yards of offense and 35 points per game and the Cowboys are putting up 278 and 14.

I guess he's technically correct - both offenses DO feature eleven players. Beyond that I'm failing to see many similarities, though.

Jurrah probably hasn't had a camera on him in the last couple of days so he has to say something to get a little attention.

This Lions-Cowboys game is an injury fest.

 

[Cyfan1998]

Chicago is looking good today. Hurts to say it, but they might be the best team in the NFC North.

I love Khalil Mack

 

[BigJCy]

Thanks Bucs for leaving Bears wide open all over the place

 

[madguy30]

Can't watch but the Bears must be doing some good things...not sure if the success is because of the new guy or there's actually some good things in there.

Bears might have the best d in the NFL. Trubs is doing really well this half.

******* beatdown. This is great

I've given my Bears fan friends crap for Trubisky before, but you obviously saw something in him to draft him that high. Clearly seeing his upside today.

Even the Bears can't blow a lead this big

Put it in the books. A W for Da Bears.....

But tired of the Jameis Winston coverage
