The Rams do look unstoppable, but the season is too early to be crowning anyone.

Except the Jaguars arent going to move to London? What "article" did you read that said that? Shad Khan has invested hundreds of millions in Jacksonville and will not be moving the team.

That's been the rumour going round for a few years since Shahid Khan also owns Fulham FC and struck the deal for the Jags to play in London every year, don't think there's anything concrete.

Also no one here supports the Jaguars, UK fans already had their own teams and didn't have any intention of jumping on the Bort bandwagon. Personally I would probably support a London team as a second team but not if they moved an existing team, that's not really cool imo. Regardless it will never happen anyway because the logistics are insane and unworkable.

This is the NFL where 2 teams moved to the same city that has a long history of being completely unwilling to support teams.

They'll happily do something incredibly obviously stupid out of pure huberis.

Seriously, never put anything past the NFL just because it is a very dumb and bad idea. This is also the same organization that constantly steps on its own dick by reviving the kneeling controversy every few months without being prompted.

This isn't to say the Jags will move, I have no idea. Just that "it would be insane to move them" isn't going to stop the NFL from doing it.

Shad Khan is also trying to buy Wembley Stadium for $800m and not move Fulham from Craven Cottage. Soooo... it might not be just an investment.

I understand its been a rumour but Khan isnt dumb. He has spent several hundred million dollars in Jacksonville to upgrade the stadium and the team's facilities. He also looked at the value gained from playing in London - the team earns almost 25% of its revenue from the one game in London. If he owns the stadium he will get an even higher % of that, be able to put permanent accommodations for NFL play there, and permanent Jacksonville Jaguars related things.

Its also been the story for years that the Jags cant fill the stadium, yet even with the tarps off they havent been blacked out in years and are consistently in the upper half of attendance numbers. Despite that, I still constantly see "lol Jaguars home games lol" jokes everywhere.

Thats my point, there is a lot of speculation. I was looking for you to say "This article in <respected news outlet> where Shahid Khan said he is moving the Jacksonville Jaguars to London", and you dont have that. There especially would be a lot of articles from right around when Khan bought the team speculating about that considering his connections to London, but it didnt happen and there are currently no indications that it will.

Even though he didn’t look objectively good, I had no idea Sam Shields was playing in the NFL and I was genuinely elated to see him break up that pass. I’m a defensive back homer and I only wear defensive back jerseys, I’ve been rocking the Shields for years and was so upset when he had all the concussion trouble. If his brain is ok ( :( ) I could see him remaking his name and staying a solid corner for years with his experience, guy was the fastest corner I’ve seen in a long while and he steadily improved in regards to his NFL knowledge. I hope to see him play for a long time coming, even if it isn’t with the Packers

e: like I fully expect him to lose multiple steps but I always thought he had the physical ability to age gracefully and let his studies fill in for age-related physical challenges

I hear you one of my favorite vikings players was Antoine Winfield and it's been cool to watch his son, who is basically the same player, play for the gophers. Except he's been out for the season with injury after week 4 for two seasons in a row now, both occurring against Maryland oddly enough.

I mean, the Rams went 6 quarters without giving up a score in the first 2 weeks. I think their defensive "woes" have simply been that they've faced two very good offenses in the Chargers and Vikings, who can both put up a lot of points. They have a lot of talent and they're coached by Wade so I expect they'll have their poo poo together by the end of the year.

The Vikings, OTOH, have definitely regressed hard so far from where they were last season.

The teams they crushed were the Raiders and Cards.

Both teams which struggled to put up points on a good day.

The Vikings got nearly shut out by the Bills.
