Raider Hype lives another day as Titan hype dies in ignominy!

And Beast Mode comes back after a year away from football and still averages over 4 yards a carry. What a freak.

Boy there are some depressing 4 PM Eastern time slots this year.  Week 1 it's always an issue because CBS has the US Open in the late slot and you lose an extra game to the double header on MNF.  Next week the late slot seems pretty good.  But once bye weeks start it gets ugly, often times only three games a week with only one appealing game in the bunch.

Unfortunately it's all very deliberate.  The networks hate RedZone because there are no ads - so the agreement is to load up 1 PM and put all the late afternoon focus on the 4:25 PM marquee game of the week.  But man were the first year or two of RedZone fun when there were never fewer than five games on in the late afternoon including multiple good ones.

How dare you speak ill of this Jared Goff/Scott Tolzien classic

[Meacon Keaton]

Seattle/Green Bay is where it's at.

It took 30 minutes but we finally got a score in this game!

Also Jared Goff looks... good?

[The Buscher]

Not sure if Goff is good or if the Colts are just a bottom 5 team.

[Maxx]

It's a little of both.  He's got a much better offense this year, coaches includeded.

TOP OF SHIT MOUNTAIN

First time the Jags have been above 0.500 since September 2011.

[The Buscher]

Seattle's offensive line is nothing short of dreadful.  Not sure that they're as bad as the Giants', but I'm seeing a lot of similar issues.

Baffling really that neither team did anything to address their biggest weakness.

The Rams are being mean!  

[Maxx]

Did Tolzien get hurt or was he just so terrible they would rather use a QB who has been on the team for 8 days?

Falcons got lucky! Bellamy was held in the end zone with no call and Howard dropped a TD. We didn't win but I feel way good about the team this year

Yeah, we managed to go toe-to-toe with the reigning NFC champions with almost zero offense outside of two running backs.

If Marcus Wheaton brings anything to the table as a WR then it could be a fun season.

And as I type this I've just learned Kevin White is heading to IR again with a broken collarbone. I think I'm ready to label him a bust.

[Lineker]

No Odell tonight. 

[The Buscher]

Giants offense is looking as bad as I feared they could.  Line is horrible and Eli is just doing these helpless 2-3 yard passes that have no chance to go anywhere.  He's playing scared.

[Alex.]

Thank you Jerry Reese for addressing the Offensive Line

[Maxx]

I think the Giants offense might be slightly reliant on Odell.

[The Buscher]

I'm not even sure how much of a difference Beckham would make tonight with how scared Eli is playing.  There's a chance he could've taken one of these crap 3 yard passes and turned it into a huge gain but maybe not.

I'm watching at my dad's. Was planning on watching the whole thing here but I may duck out if the Giants don't score some points fairly quickly. 

[Your Mom]

Giants are way boring now huh?

[Alex.]

Classic Eli
