I think the Patriots uniforms Thursday Night (against the Jets) may be the best alternate uniforms I have ever seen.  Anyone else feel the same?


I still like the Vikings alternative uniforms as well, but wowsa, those Patriots ones were super cool.  So much so, if I were in the organization, I would advocate to change those to the permanent uniforms.

There's a bizarro fact in the NFL that I always found incredibly hard to believe. Kirk Cousins worst statistical season as an NFL starting QB was better than the best ever season by any Bears QB in their 106 year history. 

That may change this year, as Caleb Williams is on track to be the first Bears QB to throw for over 4,000 yards.

Oh my goodness....

Looks like Vrabel finally pulled his head out of his ass and is getting him the ball. I know he was a favorite of many on this board heading into the draft including myself. It really is amazing to me how long it takes for some coaches to get talented players involved in the game plan when they are clearly the better option than the starter in front of them. Zimmer was another great example of this

On another note, I've had Henderson on my fantasy roster all year waiting for the breakout because you knew it was coming. I've literally wanted to strangle Vrabel when Henderson was getting five touches a game in contrast to Stevensons 15 carries for 53 yards and a cheap TD.

I'm not holding out for post-season play this year, dont think its in the cards. So for me? Its all about JJM development, beating GB and hoping to pull out some wins here or there overall till new years. 

The players arent (cant) think like that and shouldn't..

But thats not my point...

My point is (finally) that I think this weeks game vs Bears is really important in terms of keeping that locker room engaged..Lots of vets in there who are used to winning and this season has got to be taxing. 

Jefferson was just the brightest symptom bubbling to the surface publicly.

Van Ginkel became one of the primary ingredients in last year's defensive transformation. This year, the difference between Flores' defense when Van Ginkel is on the field and when he isn't is drastic. Minnesota's defense rises from 20th in the league in success rate to eighth when Van Ginkel is on the field.

Looking forward to this one...

I think I'm rooting for Detroit too.

Matthew Stafford is on a tear. The Los Angeles Rams quarterback is rewriting the record book, becoming the first in NFL history to throw 20 touchdown passes without an interception over a six-game stretch.

In his last three outings alone, Stafford has tossed 13 touchdowns. He’s now tied with New England’s Drake Maye as a favorite for league MVP.

Another milestone: By beating the 49ers last week, Stafford’s career record finally hit .500 at 115-115-1. After all those rough years in Detroit, that’s no small feat. A win Sunday against the 7-2 Seahawks would give him a winning record for the first time – and first place in the NFC West.
