My GF absolutely hates the Pats...there is no happier person on the planet this morning...

I offered my son T.Y. for Hunt before the game...he just laughed at me...

Chiefs will be fun to watch...absolutely sucks they lost Berry...

I'm thankful 1) I have him in one of my fantasy football leagues AND started him last night (BOOM) and 2) I didn't play against him in the Vikefans FFB League (BOOM BOOM).

Belicheat.  Karma is a bitch.  That is all.

Holy Crap, that's a hell of an entrance. Not like this kid flew under the radar in the draft either.

So, due to Irma, had to replace Jay Ajayi. Insert Gillislee, which worked out (scored 3 TDs), fantasy luck is on my side for once... Except the guy I'm playing this week has Kareem Hunt... dammit!

I live about 10 Miles from Foxborough  and I could hear the crying from my house  hahahahhaa

I was feeling pretty good about my matchup. My opponent drafted only one QB: Jameis Winston, who was forced into a week one bye. Ha! Thanks Irma! Thought about changing my team name to Kamikaze, which is Japanese for "divine wind." Got home about half way through the game and discovered he snagged Alex Smith off the wire just before kickoff. He had Hunt going too. I'm down by 70-some going into the weekend. ****ing Irma!

I love fantasy football. 

I have Hunt in 2 of the 3 leagues I am in. Very happy this morning and even better seeing NE lose

Kid was drafted third round 86th pick or somewhere around there.  

just another question mark for our scouts and front office talent evaluation and decision making skills?  

or is it develop a line and you can make any RB look good?

This season will answer those questions. 

The Chiefs have great fans, they really do. I rooted for them as a far second team to the Vikings when I lived there for 17 years. Reid is an amazing coach. He can match wits with Bill....2 chess masters.

I think the Chiefs have the best fans in the NFL from my somewhat limited experience.

He was drafted in the 3rd round, which was about a round higher than most thought he would go, but he was a very trendy sleeper pick in what might have been the best RB class in a generation. It was just stacked, up and down the draft. I remembering thinking that you could draft a back in the 5th round and he could very easily be the best back from this draft. I'm curious to see how some of the top backs do this weekend, but Foreman, Connor, Jamaal Williams, Tarik Cohen, Chris Carson, all of these guys have looked damn good so far...

Funny, I went to nfl.com and there is nothing, I mean nothing about the game or the patriots on the page.  Other than the score way over to the right on the score ticker (have to scroll to find it).  It is still all preseason stuff.  WTF.

I feel you Greed. I woke up this morning, having fallen asleep when the score was 28-27, to see the final, and had to HUNT (haha) for the final. Had Brady done what Smith did, especially having lost Amendola already being down his other key man, NFL.com would've had brady splooge everywhere.
As much favor as I give the Pats and Brady for what they've done, the media makes it easy to hate him.

I was incorrect, as I scrolled down, way down, there was a story about the Pats.  It was about the backup QB facing the giants in the preseason.

I think everyone is still in the state of shock out in the NE area.

Where are all the 16-0 talkers this morning?

Great game. Looked to be a blowout by the pats early but the chiefs hung tough and ended ip blowing up the pats D as the injuries added up. Pats could be in trouble this year (fingers crossed), by the end of the game they basically had no defense. They are also down to their 4th WR as their #1. D line looked absent. 

I'd be more optimistic about the Chiefs but Berry is likely done for the season and thats going to hurt that D. 

Hunts performance makes me stoked to Cook. But I wish I had more confidence in our O line. KC was giving Smith enough time to make him look like a hall of famer. 

Really fun game to start the season though. Its so great that football is back!
