The Rodgers/Jets experiment looks all but doomed..

..but could be resurrected now that they have traded for Davante Adams!

I didn't watch the Bills game but watched the Broncos and Vikings games and Rodgers looked more likely to pick up another injury than throw a touchdown. Plus this is the Jets, so surely the outcome here is Rodgers/Adams looks great for one or two games and then Rodgers gets injured again because they can't protect him still. Might be a good idea to go all in but at 2-4 they need to go 8-3 the rest of the season to earn a wildcard spot and there are other AFC teams who will likely win their divisions and look miles better than the Jets in the Bills, Texans, Ravens, the (somewhat) lucky Chiefs.

 

Love the Cooper trade though - not much given up, Cleveland have paid his salary and he gets to go from the barmy Browns situation to a perenial contender who are desperate for a player like him.

It's mental that the Jets now have Rodgers, Lazard and Adams and the OC all from the 2021 Packers.

Packers with a last second FG to get the win over a very good Houston team.

 

Bills surprisingly went down by 10 early against a very bad Tennessee team, but cruised to an easy win.

 

Now we have the rematch of last season's SB.

From a newly-signed and what must have been a very rusty Brandon McManus

Took my son to the London game on Sunday, we really enjoyed it. I went to one at Spurs last year and much preferred the experience at Wembley although maybe that was because we were in the lower tier rather than the upper tier. The 96 yard punt return was awesome to watch live, Doug Pederson not being able to do Maths was pretty shocking.

 

Tank Bigsby and Drake Maye where the highlights. The Patriots kind of suck now but with a good draft position look in a good position to turn it around to me, especially with the futures of the Dolphins and Jets looking pretty bleak.

Spurs is a much better stadium inside than Wembley, but I prefer the experience of getting to the stadium for Wembley. Especially since I used to stay overnight at the Premier In right near to the stadium.

Agreed. 

 

Been going to the London games for years and always much prefer Wembley. More around the stadium to do (pubs and food) while you wait for the huge queues back to the tube to die down. And just simply easier to get to from around different parts of London. Spurs seems to be just one or two routes, and the tube stations in and out aren't big enough. 

 

Spurs stadium itself is better, and the view is incredible. Wembley view is alright up to about a few rows up in the top tier. 

 

Agree about Bigsby and Maye. And the punt return was superb!

Superb entertainment watching Redzone in the early window. Colts v Texans, Packers v Jags, Ravens v Browns, Cards v Dolphins, Jets v Patriots all going to the wire. Great suprise win by the Browns

Packers winning late on with a FG for the 2nd week running. Cardinals nicking a late win vs Dolphins.

Just when you thought the late window would be disappointing, Jayden Daniels did that! Mental ending.

That was an unreal ending, a terrible loss for the Bears. What a great night of entertainment all round though even if the end of the early games was a bit overwhelming

How not to gloat and celebrate too early...
