The Buffalo Bills (2-0) and the LA Rams (2-0) will play in 80 degree temperatures today–not your normal late September weather in Western New York! The Bills are 2 1/2 point favorites despite injuries to their two starting linebackers. Of course, all NFL teams are experiencing higher rates of injuries because of the lack of Preseason games and OTAs. How will your favorite NFL team do today?
After last week’s dispiriting loss to the Raiders in their luxurious but empty new Vegas stadium, the 1-1 Saints take on the 2-0 Packers in the Superdome tonight. Saints’ offense hasn’t been fairly good, but their defense is leaking like a sieve and other teams are scoring at will.
Deb, I’m suspicious of the Packers. This game against the Saints might expose them.
suspicious of what??
Maggie, I’m not sure the Packers are as good as the “experts” claim.
that’s a hard game for me to pick, as I like both teams. I’m gonna hope for the pack to win, though.
as long as the judas’s (chargers) lose, I’m happy. Also happy when the cowboys lose, just due to their owner.
The Falcons are a disgrace to the NFL and, like many Atlantans, I wish they’d just go away, to another city or even another country. Odds are that they won’t be able to come up with a more ludicrous way to lose to the Bears today than the “just let the other team recover their onside kick” trick they used last week in Dallas, but I’m sure they’ll try. Shipping this clown show to another city and hoping for an expansion team is our only hope.
Michael, I can’t remember another NFL team other than the Falcons who have a history of blowing large leads…and losing.
the chargers have been known to do that often
Maggie, I’m still appalled by the Tyrod Taylor (former Buffalo Bills QB) of the LA Chargers getting a hole in his lung from a doctor’s shot.
Unless something unexpected happens, you can assume my default answer about the Giants is “They’re going to lose.” That includes today’s game at the Meadowlands against the 49ers. Can’t believe it is warmer in Buffalo than it is here.
Jeff, it’s warmer in Buffalo than it is in LA! Plenty of Bills fans wish they could be in the stadium to see this game!
Hope Dallas loses, though I’m not bothering to watch games.
Rick, I’m enjoying the Bills beating the Rams (so far) 28-3 in the Third Quarter.
Go, Bills! 21-3 at the half. Of course, the Giants are losing.
Jeff, I’m surprised that the Bills are having their way with the Rams. Oops, the Rams just scored 29 unanswered points! But the Bills pulled it out in the waning seconds!!!
So the Bills blew a 25 point lead, only to pull it out in the end. Whew! Way to go.
Jeff, the referees made two calls that allowed the Rams to come back…but they also made a call at the end that sealed the win for the Bills. Sorry about the Giants…
I only root for the rams because they share LA with the chargers
I’m liking the chiefs a lot
One of our sports columnists was wondering if Tyrod would sue the idiot dr.
Maggie, Tiro should sue! Who wants a hole in one’s lung???
OK, Bills – Seahawks SuperBowl!
Or not. The Seahawks lost their primary runner and both starting guards yesterday, as well as a defensive back. Yikes.
Rick, but the Seahawks are 3-0 with Russell Wilson who I consider the best QB in the NFL. All teams are experiencing increasing injuries. No OTAs and no Preseason games and this is the result.
