Bad, very bad!
TNF probably looked really good to NFLN before the season.

MNF will be fun for a particular type of fan. A very particular type.

What is wrong with the Saints? Watching them clunk along against the Bears was physically painful.

They were missing their top 3 WRs and it was cold and windy. They miss Michael Thomas so much, and getting Emmanuel Sanders back would be great.

People mock MT for only running slants but its all brees can hit anymore and so being the best short to intermediate route runner is fantastic in this offense.

Yeah, Kamara and MT are the perfect weapons for Brees at this point.

I’m very concerned that the Eagles might be able to pull 8 wins out of their rear end and we’re gonna be denied the NFC East being won by a team with a losing record.

Unless Aaron Jones is healthy enough to play the Packers have [checks note] zero RBs on the roster right now that can suit up

Not really counting Tyler Ervin as a RB

Packers have Dexter Williams on the practice squad and literally no other RBs.

Russell is scary good tho. They can beat any team in the league but also can lose to any team bc lmao this defense. The offense is good enough to carry them into the playoffs just depends if getting a bunch of hurt players back (adams) can help them improve

They just need to be a top 20-25 defense to go 14-2 imo sadly their ranking starts with a 3

Man, I have no idea how Jimmy could've been so bad as to get into the NFC East poo poo sandwich here: https://www.footballoutsiders.com/quick-reads/2020/week-8-quick-reads

quote:

27. Carson Wentz - Wentz led all qualifiers with an average depth of target of 11.6 yards. In a related note, his average completion gained only 1.6 yards after the catch, worst of the week. He was the week's worst passer from under center (2-of-5 for 20 yards with three sacks).

28. Jimmy G - Garoppolo left this game in the third quarter and still finished last in DYAR in several categories, including third/fourth downs (2-for-3 for 16 yards with one interception, three sacks, and only one conversion), inside the red zone (2-for-3 for 12 yards with an interception), and on throws to tight ends (1-of-4 for 14 yards and an interception). Yes, Garoppolo's interception was thrown to a tight end in the red zone on third down.

29. Da Nootch - DiNucci was last in DYAR inside the opponents' 40-yard line (7-of-10 for 46 yards with three sacks and two fumbles). And on throws to wide receivers (12-of-26 for 93 yards, plus an 8-yard DPI). And on deep balls (0-for-6 -- in fact, he was incomplete on all nine throws that traveled more than 10 yards downfield).
