Week opens tonight with the Dolphins and Ravens.
The Dolphins need this to keep pace in the AFC East.

The Vikings play the hapless Browns in London. While the number point to the Vikings strange things can happen in these overseas trips. Hopefully they can take care of business.

Monday night is a crucial game for the Chiefs. Can they get their mojo back against a hot and cold Denver team who has been more cold than hot as of late.
 
No kidding. Way to support the concussion problem by just giving the penalty yards.

NFL needs targeting. Hits like that and what Danny T of the Bears did to Adams of GB should be ejections. So much for player's safety being a concern.
 
The Vikings seemed to come out flat but eventually got it together well enough to get the win. Next week they have their bye. Hopefully they can rest up a bit and get ready for a tough second half of the season.
 
Man that is a stupid rule. That was a touchdown but he was injured on the play so he didn't "complete the catch"
 
Have the Texans players ever heard the expression "inmates running the asylum"? Doesn't seem like it. I know this is old news but I haven't seen it discussed (and yes, I also realize this isn't the exact saying their owner used but it was a variation of the same thing). It was clear that he was not referring to his players as "inmates" and did not see them as such, it just turned into a bunch of overpaid babies whining about it.

Detroit passed on a FG behind by one, now find themselves down five when a earlier fg would only have them down 2 right now.
 
49ers acquire Jimmy Garoppolo for a 2nd round pick.

That probably ends the CJ Beathard experiment for a while
 
That's twice now where Von Miller has totally dogged it on the back side of the play, when he could have made an effort to get involved in the play. Both were on qb runs to his side. Really, really poor effort

I thought the Pats wanted multiple first round picks for Garropalo. Not a bad deal for the Niners, but it'll be a short audition. They'll either have to put the franchise tag on him, sign him to a long term deal, or let him hit free agency after this season.
