2020 NFL Season

[Zzzptm]

The Chiefs game is some great fun to watch. I tuned in on the 2nd half, got to see a sweet pick-6 and an even sweeter 103-yard kickoff return for a TD. Go Chiefs!

Seems like the only reason the Broncos showed up was to turn the ball over to KC. Then Denver's onside kick betrayed their desperation, and failed anyway. They had to feel like chumps when we were so far ahead we pulled Mahomes out just to give our No. 2 QB some field time. And he ran one in for a TD.

There were individual instances of solid playing by the Broncos. But the team as a whole looked like they'd rather have been watching the snow from under a comfy blanket while sipping some hot cocoa, dreaming of the days when Elway was their QB.

The Chiefs, on the other hand, showed up to play football.

And the Cowboys obviously didn’t and look to have given up on the season already.

Garrett’s looking like a magician compared to what’s going on there now....

Cowboys are in an awful spot, with Dalton down with a concussion and Dak's massive injury. Still doesn't excuse what happens on the defensive side of the ball. They need another Herschel Walker trade and FAST.

[Jack the Stripper]

^^And not one Cowboys player stood up for Dalton when he copped that cheap shot which tells you where that teams at right now. I’d give McCarthy 3 weeks to turn it around or move him on.

Doesn’t seem like the team is playing for him.

[Zzzptm]

Yeah, there's a lot of fallout from nobody standing up for Dalton. This was supposed to be a team loaded with talent that just needed a better coach than Garrett to reach the next level. Instead, they had defense plague them at the start and then, after Dak went out with an injury, just folded up. They have no leadership, and that ultimately goes back up to the coach, ESPECIALLY the coach that was supposed to get the Cowboys to at least the conference playoff this year. Now they're 3rd of 4 in the worst division in that conference.

On the other side of the league, It's great to see Cole Beasley running up the numbers for the Bills, as he was one of my faves when he played for Dallas. It's sad to see the Jets go through their agonies.

One of the smartest plays from last week was the Lions forcing Atlanta to score in order to have as much clock as possible to come back with a winning score. It worked out well for the Lions on that move.

[Jack the Stripper]

It’s actually painful watching the Cowboys at the moment. Yeah they’ve been forced to go to their 3rd string QB and have other injuries on both offense & defense but they still have some offensive weapons on that team and you’d think the offensive coordinator could invent or manufacture a play to score at least one TD.

They did battle hard today but you just knew deep down how the game was going to go and they were never a realistic chance of scoring a TD let alone winning

[Vyn]

Mahomes threw five (5) TDs against the Jets. It was a dull game to watch simply because the match-up was so uneven. One team played like a team, the other played like a bunch of random guys who decided to get together and play some street football.

[Zzzptm]

Looking at the Chiefs' schedule, I see about half the games with an opponent that could be feisty enough to put up a fight - Raiders, Saints, Bucs, Dolphins - and then four others that look like creampuff opponents to help boost the W-L record for the UPI polling... The Flintstones could very well have a 13-3 record or better heading into the postseason.

Looking at the Dallas schedule for the rest of the year, it looks like a lot of hurt on their plate. They could very well be 4-12 as they pick out new televisions to watch the playoffs on.

[Jack the Stripper]

I like how the Bucs are travelling. They’re strong on both sides of the ball and are adding Antonio Brown to that offense. Will be interesting how that dynamic plays out if Brady has in fact managed to turn his attitude around and he’s as fit as they’re saying he is.

With the Cowboys down and out I’ll be taking a keen interest in them. My wife has cousins in Tampa Bay and we stayed with them for a week and went to Raymond James stadium to watch a college game so there’s a bit of a soft spot for them.

[Zzzptm]

Yes, rooting for Tampa looks to be much less frustrating than rooting for Dallas. That poor 3rd-string QB is in way over his head and pundits are saying that Dallas needs to either win out or lose out to make this season have any value.

[Jack the Stripper]

Losing to get a high draft pick is the Cowboys best option this season.

[Zzzptm]

Losing to get a high draft pick is the Cowboys best option this season.

And then next season... being sure that the high draft pick gets used properly!

[Zzzptm]

We're pretty much done with Week 9, and the NFC East has 9 wins between the 4 teams. Ugh.

All my friends who are Bills fans are in 7th Heaven over their recent run of wins.

[Jack the Stripper]

Of coarse the Cowboys couldn’t come through when it mattered 

Is Aaron Rogers the only one that stands between the Chiefs and back to back Super Bowl wins?

The Bills are dangerous!
