It might be played today, but Titans-Jaguars will never not be a Thursday game spiritually. All it's missing is those terrible colour rush uniforms.

[Chakan]

Panthers defense is going to cost us huge this season. They’re pathetic.

at 6-3 it sounds........................attritional.

You missed all the action. It's 9-6 now.

Falcons-Saints is as good as we had hoped though. Julio with a big catch now.

looking like whoever has the final possession is going to win

[Daniel Cabbaggio]

dont suppose anyone knows what the over/under was in the atlanta/saints game?

Looks like both teams are scoring at will, thrash defenses but a good watch for neutral like me

Oh to answer your question, o/u was at 54.

[Gerry Attrick]

Saints games are back to being ridiculously high scoring. Last season was an anomaly it seems.

[Ray K]

Well of course Drew Brees makes a defender miss and runs in a TD himself.
Still think there's enough time for Ryan to get them in FG range.

[voodoo ray]

Brees with the spin.......

[elsewhere]

Brees TD, Falcons defense there

[elsewhere]

selfish part of me wants OT from this game

[elsewhere]

just realized Seahawks are playing vs Cowboys next, should be a quality game.

[Ray K]

That did not look good for Handsome Jimmy G in KC. I'm expecting an Adam Schefter tweet with 'ACL' later 

[Ray K]

just realized Seahawks are playing vs Cowboys next, should be a very low quality game.

[scouseman]

Jimmy G gone off injured.Worried for the season if it is anything serious 

[Statto Red]

Andy Dalton Bungles could well have won that game if he didn't throw 4 interceptions.

[Daniel Cabbaggio]

o/u was at 54.

Silently weeps, free money

[voodoo ray]

going to OT

[elsewhere]

Any game that can possibly make seahawks start the season 0-3 is a pure excitement for me

[Gerry Attrick]

Buffalo -20 on the handicap was the most obvious bet of the century. What was I thinking ignoring it?

[TheMissionary]

Frigging hell, Raiders threw away another lead.  They defend like Everton.

 

[elsewhere]

I still can not say "Los Angeles Chargers", it just feels weird, take the franchise back to SD ffs.

Gruden will be in hot seat soon. Lucky they are playing Browns next to avoid a 0-4.

Browns should absolutely start favourites for that game.

Browns won on Thursday..they're on a roll

Didn't they give him a ten year contract? How hot can it get for him?

Is it like football, is he guaranteed a huge portion of the money in there, even if he's sacked?

[elsewhere]

Nah, they shouldn't be favorites even if they play a NCAAF side until they prove they can win 2 games in a season

[Gerry Attrick]

Based on the little I've seen of both clubs the Browns are definitely a superior team and have better players in almost every position, it's just whether they can stay out their own way. Wouldn't back the Raiders to beat any team in the league with counterfeit money. Dogshit outfit.

[classycarra]

Oakland don't seem to do second halves, so I think I'd have Browns as favourites too

[Gerry Attrick]

Cardinals v Bears is the definition of a nondescript game. Does anyone even support those teams?

Of course it's not like he will be sacked or anything but what i meant was there is already a lot of disappointment and Bay Area writers from SF Chronicle and  Oakland Tribune already criticizing him a lot.

Yeah it was like an Alan Pardew-Newcaste contract

I think technically speaking he is guaranteed to full amount if he is sacked but can't be a coach for another team for 10 years so there should be a release agreement/settlement but too early for that of course. I actually loved him a lot on MNF, quite funny, insightful and smart.

This is the funniest bit of the whole thing. As if any other team would be thick enough to hire him when he gets sacked from the Raiders

I lived in SF for 10 years, met many die hard Bears fans even in the Bay Area among my colleagues. I suppose they love their team despite sucking for a long time.

Cool, thanks for explaining mate.

His argument will be: Well, Moyes still gets jobs, doesn't he?
Expect Browns to give him another 10 year contract

shitloads of bears fans in this country, it's the 85/86 thing.

[voodoo ray]

and there we go, last team in possession wins the game

[classycarra]

I think thats a knee down a few inches before the line from Kamara

[elsewhere]

looked like a TD to me
