Did Fox and CBS switch some games? Fox has denver oakland and miami road games; CBS has Atlanta.

Living in the KC area is pretty interesting right now. I'll be looking forward to watching the KC BAL game but also with the understanding that with every chunk play the Chiefs pick up my anxiety level for the second season continues to rise. Appreciate watching him because he's so damn talented, but 12/8 can't get here soon enough.

Which Fox Sunday game is the least bad? Was trying to assess whether I approved or disapproved of the game that will air here... and realized I have no idea.

MIA @ DAL - epic, possibly historic-level beatdown
DET @ PHI - an even matchup on paper but Wentz likely out with a concussion
DEN @ GB - Broncos are abject, so a waste unless you're a Rodgers fan
OAK @ MIN - the ongoing shitshow of Grudentown vs a criminally mis-coached Vikings team
NYG @ TB (4:25) - another Suck Bowl, welcome to the washing machine Daniel Jones
CAR @ ARI (4:25) - two winless teams; glory in the uncalled late hits on Cam Newton

By contrast, I'm interested in a solid majority of the CBS games.

Aside from Miami-Dallas, I have no idea what to expect out of any of those games. I guess I expect GB-DEN to be a low scoring slugfest.

Detroit has a chance to be undefeated through 3 weeks. Who saw that coming.

Yes, early season switches allowed this year.

Additionally, the Thursday and Monday games are horrendous.

I’m typically not thrilled by Thursday night games or intradivision games - and, yes, often there’s overlap - but tomorrow night’s tilt between Jax and the Titans is an exception. Psyched to see this play out.

Oakland vs. Minn is mildly interesting to me. The Oakland run defense has looked decent so far, so I'm curious to see what they can do against Cook.

Raiders and Det/Phi is my pick

If they let Ramsey play on this field tonight, they're running a risk

DEN@GB Packers are 2-0, but Rodgers has already been sacked 7 times(49 times last year). The Broncos surprisingly don't have a sack this year, so something will give. It will be a bigger red flag if Rodgers throws a pick. Only 2 in 597 attempts last year.

Tom Brady was named first team to the 2000-2009 All-Decade Team, and looks to be the clear frontrunner for 2010-2019. Drew Brees is hurt, and Aaron Rodgers is really the only competition left. Out of all of his achievements, Two-time first team All-Decade Team would be incredible.

I’ve decided that, under the @DrewDawg entertainment principle, my fan experience will likely be improved Minshew Mania. So I guess I’m rooting for him.

127.78 passer rating thus far in his second start. The legend grows.

Chark and Westbrook are pretty solid WRs. Minshew made good throws but they required equally good catches.

Wait, what, Wentz? I know they pulled him on Sunday to test for a concussion, which he was pissed about, but I haven't heard anything since. I know he got hit in the ribs.

Holding calls up 64% thru 2 weeks. Broadcast crew crushing them.

I don’t think I’ve ever seen an announcing team basically apologize for a game before.
