Any other games of note that have your attention?
I’m curious to see Tennessee’s QB situation .. I think Mariota might not be long for that franchise

Yeah it’s a huge year ... it’s also interesting that rumors are Tannehill has looked good. To me, neither are gonna win you the title anyways

I am casually interested in the other three teams we have to play twice. Didn't get eyes-on watch for Cincy, so pretty interested there. Also, saw only one quarter for the Pits.
I am amped for us! Other games are a coincidence and distraction. Ready today to run and play.
Go, Browns!

Any other games of note that have your attention? Sort of interested in Packers at Ravens for the same reason as above (division business). See how Lamar is looking.

Steelers vs Chiefs. A great test for the Steelers defense I'm almost afraid to watch. It's in Pittsburgh at leastt.

Will the main players be playing for both teams?

Yes he did ... and the Steelers really didn’t show much on O last week. Wondering if Ben plays this one Will the main players be playing for both teams? Mahomes played the whole first quarter in week one.

Steelers didn't practice Sunday or Monday in respect to losing Coach Drake. Haven't heard much since. I will post in this thread when I learn more.

I am interested in North teams. Saw none of Cincy, but a fan/friend of them I know really badmouthed them. I saw only a bit of Pits, they looked decent, and I did not see the Ratbird ones.
Want to see some of what is coming to our table. Hope the preseason injuries for all players are minimal.
Oh, and I will probably watch our guys again.

I saw CIncy and they were disorganized ... and Dalton misfired on a handful of passes that I saw.
I remember thinking last year that Driskell was just as good as dalton

A few notes on the Cardinals: Murray looks in over his head .. he’s had multiple penalties, they look disorganized, had a safety, poor passes ... it seems like they have too much on his plate TBH
The Raiders look fast to me. They seem to be playing motivated ... Carr had a nice drive and Jacobs looks like a complete RB

A few notes on the Bengals: Dalton looked very MEH .. threw an INT. He doesn’t inspire much to me
The Redksins had a long TD by Haskins, but their OL is a sieve

A few notes on the Ravens: Man, Jackson can RUN ... he is lighting. As for his passing ... no. But they will run the crap out of it this year.
The Packers defense was very bad. Horrible tackling.

I expected more from GB and their defense did disappoint. Dalton was Dalton; not nuts about his ability or game; They struggled with their ones against the Redskins. We do have some comparison there.
I really like our chances against them this year in our division.

Haskins looked a lot better last night.. I think game 1 was just nerves and possibly trying to do too much.
Tackling in most of what I've watched across multiple games has been pretty bad.
I saw the absolute worst offensive pass interference call I've ever seen in my life against the Redskins.. if you haven't seen it, the video is out there.

The Bills look very good ... good defense and good QB play.
The Panthers looked very undermanned and uninspired lol

The Panthers looked very undermanned and uninspired lol The regular season will turn out the exact opposite of this. On a related note, Daniel Jones has actually looked good. He's an accurate passer.

Yes, Jones’ passing has been very accurate ... he fumbled twice, but I’d much rather have that than INT’s at this point

In the baseball cap and light beard they are look alikes...lol
Defense wins championships. Watson play your butt off! Go Browns! CHRIST HAS RISEN! GM Strong! & Stay safe everyone!

Just watching the Ravens/Packers again ... Baltimore is showing a lot of different formations (Billick points it out nicely) and it’s hard to matchup and know what to expect each play for the defense. They can really make it hard on the LBs to stop the run

But, Steelers have some playmakers that will be able to hold down the fort IMO

Steelers defense still looks better than ours. Their front 7 is tough. I’m watch because my cousin plays for the chiefs. If Mahommes goes down chiefs are screwed. But both defenses look pretty good

I have said that I thought Baker needed to work on his footwork this past offseason, but I think the same can be said of Mahomes. He makes too many off-balance throws when he doesn't need to.

Yeah I agree .... he’s not nearly a finished product. He can’t get into the habit of relying on his pure talent ... just like Baker, continuing to work on his craft and footwork and reads is imperative of course
