NFL 2016: Week 7

It's almost like sending teams across the ocean to deal with jet lag and other travel concerns reduces the quality of the games.

Also, perhaps if they want to grow the market for the NFL in England they should consider sending better teams.

They are so unabashedly cheerful and friendly. Really need to take them down a notch.

The NFL is playing in Canada now?

Vikings are terrible amirite??

Nope. But it wasn't Wentz's 138 yards passing and 3 turnovers that beat them, either.

Philly's D decimated Minnesota.

Minnesota's offensive line was awful. There is a reason Jake Long wasn't on a roster for the first part of the season.

Maybe the reason mortar kicks aren't so critical is because returners field the ball 2 yards deep in the end zone and run out and get tackled at the 17.

Last I checked they didn't put asterixs next to wins when the teams rookie QB plays poorly. Also losing Lane Johnson is going to result in any QB suffering stat wise. VT ain't cutting it and understandable so as a 5th round rookie.

Eagles will struggle against teams that can control the line of scrimmage. Especially if they can run the ball against the wide 9.

That sack/fumble is all on Kaepernick. That's that free rusher who is the QB's responsibility in the protection call.

Discussion about Philly beating weak teams was largely in the context of discussion of Carson Wentz's performance. So if not that, then who or what are you targeting with all the "lol this Philly opponent sucks too right guys?" snark?

I love how the new Geno Smith era didn't even last a full half.

I would say, based on today's performance, as a quarterback, Colin Kaepernick has been a pretty good running back. A bunch of misses on passes, a few bad reads, and really bad pocket presence. Had some success early, but, man, he's been brutal in the 2nd and 3rd quarters.

Also, on every other down, one SF player seems to be injuring another SF player.

Also also, Roberto Aguayo sucks.

Gonna be a bad week for my pick ems. Really expected SF to maybe be an okay team, but they're not.

My bad I thought the Vikings had a great defense Wentz should have shredded them.

The Steelers seem to battle skill position injuries every year. How many games have Brown, Bell, Bryant managed to play together? Not to mention Ben.

Are they trying to get TNF cancelled with Thursday's lineup?

Man, we can hope.

Wow the Browns have already had to use their 7th string QB. That hasn't happened this early in the season in 40 years. Just have to feel bad for them.

To be fair, the talent level hasn't really dropped that much along the way.

I feel bad for the guy from Draw Play who has to update his Browns QB hydra drawing every week at this rate.

If you like D you'll love this SEA-ARI pitchers duel.

Because everyone wants an extra 15 min of this exciting 3-3 battle.

Are you not entertained?

Wide left. Good night.

Big waste of time.

That's it. No more prime time football games. No more games before the 9 am Pacific/12 pm Eastern bloc on Sundays. Just give us the full daytime slate on Sunday and that'll do nicely.

The f*ck did I just watch

Ugh.

But I don't care what any of you say, that was an entertaining as hell game of football. Defenses were amazing.

I can appreciate that, the defenses were good. Nobody likes a tie though, they need to find a way to break those, maybe have the kickers wrestle.

Penalty kicks!

Best soccer match ever!

Earl and Avril were playing out of their minds but Seattle's tackles got lit up all night.
