So after 4 weeks of NFL what have we learned?

RED EYE,i was going to bet san diego to win the SB when we were in vegas but literaly forgot to and i believe they were something like 22 or 25 to 1,but they really look good early and as you say if they stay away from more injuries then they have a decent shot.

The Patriots definitely are on the decline. Trading Mankins must be the worst executive decision of the year.

 

[Enfuego 1,975]

JJ Watt is one of the best young DT's I've seen in a long time.

 

[CHOPTALK 3,270]

We have learned that the Saints are not the only team that played in primetime that looked like shit on Defense.
At least the Saints lost to a team that had a good offense.

I think the Bengals or Chargers will win the SB!!

 

[VIEJODINOSAUR 3,010]

Kansas City was firing on all cylinders tonight.....boy do they have some offensive weapons.......

And the fans broke the record for crowd noise....

Probably will be over bet next week....lol

Same thing we learn every week. That people will VASTLY over react to one week's results. PLEASE Mr Bookie, make NE a Home Dog against Cinci. PRETTY PLEASE.

To me overreacting is believing that a team will ALWAYS bounce back.....doesn't happen sometime

True, but it'll take a while to convince me that Brady is done and NE is garbage. If Mr Bookie gives me the opportunity to get them + at home in the regular season, I'll take it. Maybe I'll pay dearly for it, but I'll take it.

idk if he's done, I know his OL isn't very good and he has no deep threat to take the pressure off a mediocre running game.

Guesser, you are right about many people overreacting to a teams loss, but the body of work by NE tells a different story. They just are not that good....and by being the Pats you are going to get the others team best punch. The problem with this game is Cincy has a legit D and NE has no O. The NE D can't stop the run, so as long as Dalton don't throw 3 picks I see it hard for NE to win. The only other way NE wins if Cincy is too rested off the bye and out of sync....which does happen.

I respect Brady and Bellichick too much to not think they will give their top effort this week, whatever that is. If they were 3 point Favorites I wouldn't touch the game, but if they are home dogs, it's tough to pass up. I think Cinn has the best roster in the league, but I'll still take a desperate Brady and Bellichick stewing for a week at home, over Dalton and Lewis.

 

[REDEYE 3,265]

I would think Brady & Belichek were stewing all year with the body of work they have put in..Like Albatross is posting, this isn't some knee jerk reaction....We are watching this with our own eyes...I saw Cincy at - 2 1/2 last night then a short time later pk.....I will take that pk any day with the help of Pat money...

Well, you've got your wish. Bengals are -1.5, and that's about right to me.

Cincy is coming off a bye, Pats coming off a short week. NE's OL is a mess, and the Chiefs ran all over their front seven last night. KC is an average 8-8 type team while I think the Bengals are probably the most complete team in football right now. Really have no idea how NE is going to handle that Cincy d-line...I'd be extremely careful backing up the Brinks armored truck to bet against the Bengals if I were you...

 

[FairWarning 2,000]

Pats have the look of a 7-9 win team. Their big advantage in the past was crushing their divisional opponents. It's interesting that Buffalo makes a qb change now, since it looks like 9 wins may take the East.

 

[REDEYE 3,265]

Coach B looked like a beaten down old man last night... it appeared that way to me anyway

 

[PatsFanatic 3,215]

I can't believe Alex Smith was actually asked in the post game conference if he "felt bad" for Tom Brady.
Are you fucking kidding me with that question?? hno:

 

[Betallsports 0]

Besides the JETS are a mess......:nohead:

tell me something I don't already know and posted Before the season.. lol

oh, how was the Eagles High powered Offense this week ?

Can't disagree with what you have posted. Tom and Bill are definitely stewing but they just don't have the offensive weapons in my opinion. NE needs this to be a slow low scoring game. Just don't see how they compete on the field....unless NE has been holding back. The truth is the NFL anybody can win on any Sunday. Cincy will probably go 12-4, so this could be the week they get the L. Just tough times for Brady with his surrounding cast on the offensive side. They use to just outscore teams, but I haven't seen them be able to move the ball efficiently at all this year. Regardless, BOL this weekend.

I think BB was asked about evaluating the QB position in the post game. Only thing that BB showed any emotion about. He just laughed and rolled his eyes at the stupidity. http://boston.cbslocal.com/2014/09/...ck-laughs-off-question-about-brady-garoppolo/
