I will watch, and wait to seasons end to make the call on Trub, the team, and the coach. It's all pretty much "new" all the way around. I like what I see on all parts as of now, and my thoughts are this coach can put it all together, and wish him success.

I watched all 3 Browns games this season and they are the real deal and easily could be 3-0 with a better kicker and a break here and there. Baker is an exciting player reminds me of a young Drew Brees. Any team that tales Cleveland lightly will lose to them. They turned the corner and CB Ward is a ball hawk. Fun team to watch play this year.

I know its only a half of a game but I have to agree, Mayfield looked good. Of course he will have his bad games, Mahomes is due for one, but his pocket presence, down field accuracy and control of the team looked pretty dang good....for now. The Baker Mayfield era has begun for Cleveland. Im not a big fan of his but its hard to root against the Browns!

Another interesting week of football! Guess i'll start with the Bears. I am not sure I have ever seen a team pull their starting QB only down by 2 with a chance to win. A lot of young QB's have been making big plays and looking good.....maybe just not a good time to try your rookie out. Of course Bradford was struggling at best. Bears defense was great as usual, you will win almost every game giving up 14 points. Mitch struggled again but Howard will carry the offense this year. All Mitch needs to do is hand the ball off, make the easy throws and maybe a couple down field throws and the Bears will be competitive. I feel a little bad for Mitch, this year was supposed to be about developing but the with the acquisition of Mack it turned into a win now defense with a win in the future offense. Bears have a favorable schedule so far, next week should be interesting.
Vikes.....***? When you get drilled and beat down there's really nothing to say.
Pack....walking and chewing gum can be hard sometimes. The Pack did a great job of beating the Pack yesterday. They really missed having a sure handed veteran receiver who is on the same page as the QB, or put into a name Jordy. Yesterday really showed that but Cobb won't have a game like that again. The Pack are the Pack and they will still always make a run when they need to. Maybe playing in the first half would help.
Lions...my favorite bi polar team.....hey, great victory, now don't go out next week and get beat by the pathetic, please stop playing football cowboys. Cowboys suck...that felt good to say.
Maybe next week Mahomes will play like a regular NFL QB.

Mitch is Mitch I guess got to score TDS not field goals. When Mitch throws down field he isn’t even close over throws or under throws looks bad!!! Bears should have routed the Cards but sqeeked by and putting Rozen in at the very end was STUPID IMO.

The Pack well Rogers can’t do it alone every week and coach M should seriously consider resting him to get the knee better. Not to mention Rogers needs to walk after retirement.

The Vikes WOW never saw that let down coming. Sure hope that doesn’t linger.

The Lions man have they been stinking up the Field yesterday looked very good or exposed the Pats to being a bad team too. Time will tell for both.

In any event I have to say it there is a 3 way tie for first in the North Bears, Vikings and the Pack!!

After mortgaging their future to move up to #2 to take Michelle it's clear they got the third best QB in that draft.

Trubisky can't even make the easy throws. The Vikings have no offensive line. Again. The Pack has no defense. Again. Rodgers won't be 100% for the rest of the season. They will beat up on each other. I would not be shocked to see the Lions win the division with a 7 /9 record. The Patriots will get Edelman back after 1 more game. Plus their shiny new toy should be about ready to go by then also. They will be fine.

Does anyone else feel bad for Kirk Cousins tonight?
I know the Vikings are rivals, but this guy could get hurt bad tonight.

Who is the Vikings backup QB? He will probably end up knocked out as well.

Rams are good all the way around.

The Vikings offensive line is below average. The Rams have the best D line in probably the entire NFL. On paper anyway. Cousins better have better composure and judgement than he did against Buffalo or he will be sacked / intercepted / forced to fumble / killed. Plus the game is at the Rams. Vegas gives the Rams an 80% chance to win. My own personal guess is that the Rams will win by at least 20 points unless the Vikes put up some garbage time points. Last week against Buffalo was not really an upset. The Vikes bad O-line was exposed early and the two early fumbles deep in their own zone decided the game right there and then. The only way the Vikes win is if the Rams turn the ball over 5 times.

The Rams are a very good team, probably the best in the league. I'm amazed Minnesota had a chance to win that game with 2 minutes to go on the road. Cousins played very well again, the defense is the issue right now. They don't look anything like they did last year. Rams didn't win by 20 and Cousins and the backup were not knocked out of the game. LOL

Cousins is solid always was in Washington, Danny Snyer and Co. are just clueless.
How bad of a coach is Jeff Fisher.
In 20 games McVay is averaging 31 points as head coach.
Don't think Fisher's teams scored 31 points a single game with basically the same offensive personnel.

Pretty impressive showing by both teams offense's. Especially QB's and WRs'.

Surprisingly the D's didnt control the game. The Vikings came to play, and it showed. Rams are built to win the SB right now. Vikings not far behind.
Those are the 2 teams that should be playing in the SB, probably. Get some OLine help for the Queens, and lets see them play again.

Yes I am a Packer fan, and no way Packers beat either of those teams. Yeah yeah they tied, but they wont next time.

Long way to go. Lots of time for injuries to happen. If you take Gurley out of the Rams equation things would change. Drew Brees can beat anybody on any given day. KC looks like the real deal. Philly might come together and obliterate everybody again. Who knows where Bell might go? The Pack can afford him but would they do it? Long way to go.

Good week for Pack, Bears and even the Lions to get a win. Bears have a great opportunity to push Mitch some more this week against Tampa, their defense is bad. He needs to make the throws. The Pack just need a win and the Bills are a great team to beat up on. I thought Dallas was going to be descent this year but they are pure garbage.
So im taking the Bears to cover the spread of 3, Pack to cover the spread of 10 and Detroit to actually win outright.

That's more like it from mitch!! Go bears! Watch out if he continues to play well. The defense is probably the best in the league. Need to stay healthy tho. Concerned about the depth.
