I complain a lot about the league, but the entertainment value of the game is definitely superior. I encourage anyone who

disagrees to watch the other major sports. The entertainment value of other pro sports leagues have continued to decline. I used to enjoy baseball for example, but it continues to lose more entertainment value every year. 

Baseball is no longer watchable…NFL football and the NHL playoffs are the only professional sports I watch these days.  I am concerned about the state of college football—it’s a real mess.

Nonsense.  The game is still extremely physical and good defense still wins games.  There just happens to be more great athletes playing offense these days.

How do you know there are more great athletes on offense? That's nonsense.

I’m 100% certain we are better than Miami, but … that speed does worry me. It’s not like Tyreek hasn’t burned us before. I have a hunch that this McDaniel is figuring out how to get the most out of Tua and his limitations. Actually, 6 TD passes suggests it’s more than a hunch. 

Oh for sure. Hill and Waddle are definitely scary. Tua is not though.  I expect McDermott will focus on pressuring Tua and keeping a bend-don’t-break defense. 
 

Tua doesn’t have Josh’s ability to throw 50 yard lasers on the run.  If Tua is going deep, he needs time to set up and lob it out there. Gotta take that time away from him. Easier said than done… but 7 sacks against stafford without a single blitz tells me it’s very possible. 
 

Again though, Tennessee is always a very physical game. We need to come out without injuries.  (I could be wrong but I think Miami is pretty healthy right now.).

Now they don't, but a couple seasons ago, that wasn't the case.

 

Many experts were expecting Allen to bust, while the opposite was true for Tua. Tua will get that bias until he's no longer a starter. And if he continues to play well, you can expect the "Dolphins are a threat the the Bills in the AFCE", articles popping up very soon.

 

Who cares about articles?  What does that have to do with anything?

Hey I enjoy football but imo hockey is more entertaining... and these comeback games make NFL exciting... but come on a 28-24 NFL game is really a 4 - 3  and 1/2 hockey game.  Game is faster, less stoppages... hitting is similar.

Hockey is a fantastic sport. This cannot be questioned. But, from a pure spectacle standpoint, the NFL is the king.

Raiders are the worst team in their division and it’s not even close. All you had to do was run the ball 2-3 times and kick the field goal and go home. McDaniels is clearly showing why he isn’t HC material. I mean if you couldn’t see that Carr was getting shaky and was inaccurate then you need to be fired from your job. No reason the raiders should’ve thrown the ball in that situation especially with a struggling QB

What does media have to do with the NFL? With its players, with its fans? I guess nothing right? Has nothing to do with power rankings, or top 100. Nope. Nothing...

 

Power rankings don't win games.  You'll hear a lot of talk this week and then when Tua has a bad game (soon) it will be long forgotten.

That feels like a tall order with the Broncos in that division.

Hackett looks like the worst coach so far this year to me, but IDK after 2 weeks. Miami looked good, but Baltimore had 3 corners on the injury report. 

 

I still think almost everyone still looks like they're in preseason form somewhat. It isn't enough time to know who's really good, but a lot of teams look bad to mediocre.

Nathaniel Hackett might be in over his head as a Head Coach worse than Nathan Peterman was as a QB...

 

Dude is just brutal two games into his career.

Yeah Hackett is going to cost that team more than a few wins this year.

Not even sure what Denver was thinking hiring him. I would've hired Brian flores 10 times before Hackett

Because of fumbles?

Because of the play calling. Why are you throwing the football in enemy territory when your QB is struggling and completely abandon your running game??? All Josh had to do was run the ball 2-3 times and kick the field goal. That loss is on Josh, Renfrow and Carr and their defense. If I was Josh Jacobs I’d be demanding a trade off that team

You mean other than the 80% of games that involve the Left Wing Lock or Neutral Zone Trap where teams try to suck the offense out of the game once they get up 1-0?

They weren't in chip it in FG range, they were at the edge of their kickers range and needed to make a play or two.
