the other will draft some undrafted garbage safety in the second next year

that's pretty hard to do

he's done it twice!

Tavon Wilson and Jordan Richards
---

he drafted two players who didn't get drafted huh

that is impressive
---

if they keep the roughing the passer rules like this people will stop watching

not just the matthews ones, but the one in the cowboys game was ridiculous. dak was basically barely touched.

Belichick is just totally checked out this year and I wonder where he coaches next year

neither would be drafted if not for Belicheck
---

did you also know the last team to pick in the draft each year drafts an undrafted player
---

how about we call it undraftable
---

the Lions collapse begins....
---

I hope not because I really want to see how this Cheatriots drama plays out

it seems like the team gave up on Belicheck and he's phoning it in at the same time

either Brady or Belicheck will be out by the end of the season

You've amped the troll game up to 11 this year.

Where did Tom and Bill touch you?
---

one of them takes pay cuts to help the team while the other uses that cap to sign practice squad players off of 31 other teams

the only thing GM Belicheck is good at are depth and cap management, his scouting department is straight trash

I don't think a team has punted against us since before the SB
---

Big Play Slay punishing that awful throw decision by Brady.

The Steelers and Pats are competing to see who can have the more awful start to the season.
---

the Pats have had a game like this in the first month of the season for like the past five years

I'll start making a big deal out of it when it happens in November or December

That was week 1

Which I literally only remember because literally Mike Gillislee put up huge fantasy points despite the loss LOL

Cheatriots had a semblance of talent in 2014

the D that year had amazing rotating rushers with a hungry Revis in the back

we had literal Duron Harmon right now out there in the back, the same guy that allowed the Kearse catch because he wanted to dodge the falling ball
---

The Pats always start 2-2 and then go on to finish like 12-4. September is not their best month.

I'm sure Gordon and Edelman will stabilize the offense. The defense is an issue though. It's bad every year but this year seems especially bad.

Today feels like a great day for the Lions to have their first 100 yard rusher in 5 years.

congrats!

That Gillislee game was last year, in which they started 2-2.

That Chiefs game, I believe, was the year they won the Superbowl in 2014. They opened with a loss to Miami then the Chiefs game put them to 1-2.

You'll excuse me for the misunderstanding, given how cleanly xp's description applies to both.

Yeah, sorry I didn't realize there were literally two of them.

The one I'm thinking was a blowout IIRC but I don't know if that narrows it down. >_> Do think it was the Week 3 game though. The 2 losses part was in my head. Thought it was 0-2 though.
---

I can't remember the last time the Patriots lost 2 in a row.

I've seen it play out so many times that I was just bracing for it.....can't believe the Lions actually closed this out. They look so oddly....competent.....
---

man I am so glad my fantasy opponent played Brady instead of Brees today
---

the blowout was against the Chiefs in 2014

they almost always stink it up in September though

oh ya go my lions

See even I get confused. It happens every year.

On the bright side, I'm up like $40 on Fanduel tonight, which is cool.

I don't have tickets yet for lionz/cowboyz

maybe I should look into it

I can't remember the last time the Patriots lost 2 in a row.

Just a few years ago (I want to say 2015) they lost to I believe the Eagles and Dolphins back-to-back

Edit: actually, it was the Broncos/Eagles and then the Jets/Dolphins two weeks later, so it actually happened twice that season!
---

so who is ready for the Cheatriots to get swept by the Dolphins this year
---

The Rams lost some people to injury but basically dominated again.

And god do I hope we just fucking maraud the Vikings next week. Fucking can't believe I'm out in Suicide already.
---

In random early hype news, the Chiefs and Rams play in week 11 on Monday Night

In Mexico City

When was the last time they lost THREE in a row?

They lost to the Chargers, Dolphins, Packers. Then they lost to the Broncos too.
---

As a lifelong Bears fan, I can't say how comforting it is to me to have a stifling, overpowering defense with an incompetent offense headed by a guy who looks like he only recently learned what a quarterback is supposed to do.

This is what the Bears are supposed to be, I feel like. Anything else just feels wrong.
---

this is not your normal Pats September slow start though

https://twitter.com/FO_ScottKacsmar/status/1044060336746373120

they very well could still recover, but the results are a lot worse than usual with that context

hint it's not Brady
---

I think I saw someone ask when was the last time as big an underdog as Buffalo won? They said it on the radio thismorning. 1995 although they didn't say the match

Feel like it depends on who set the spread

Oh I see we're still doing this thing where we claim the Patriots dynasty is ending when they lose a couple times in September

Coz that has never backfired before right
---

Cheatriots are depleted on D this year

Tre Flowers is hurt, Hightower is done and the only guy on their D that wouldn't end up on someone's practice squad is Gilmore and that's stretching it
