Just saw that Ryan Fitzpatrick has now beaten the Jaguars as the QB for six different teams.

How do you delete someone else's comment?

Fitzpatrick has started for eight teams; he has failed to beat the Jaguars as the QB of the Rams and Bucs. He actually never played against the Jaguars for either of those team, so, he's actually beaten the Jaguars with every team he has started for. While I didn't check the starters of individual games and he certainly has had ample time on the bench, he's been on a team facing the Jaguars 10 times, and his team is 7-3. While winning percentage for a QB clearly over-emphasizes the importance of the QB as opposed to the full team, in this case, it's funny, so let's point out that Fitzpatrick has about a 35% career winning percentage. Against the Jaguars? He has a 70% winning percentage.

I think it's clear based on this that Fitzpatrick would clearly be headed for the NFL Hall of Fame if he could just play the Jaguars a little more often.

Isn't that true for most NFL players?

And now Metlife just claimed Jordan Reed.

After having taken down Jabrill Peppers. But yeah, turf isn't the problem NFL.

That sh*t is just sticking feet and twisting every ankle.

Taking down Jordan Reed tells you absolutely nothing about the turf. Guy hurts himself in his sleep.

Man, the MetLife turf is killing the 49ers so hard it's been officially renamed "Patrick Mahomes Field".

Nick Chubb is the best RB in the league. Dude is a monster.

Daniel Jones is ... eeeesh.

Niners down to their 4th, 5th and 6th CBs and Jones has threatened them almost none.

Trubisky got benched when the Bears went down 26-10. Nick Foles comes in, throws 3 TDs, and wins 30-26.

The falcons are trying to recapture their 2016 super bowl magic all wrong.

What is Foles's record on games where he is replacing the starter? They should leave Trubisky in for the 1st snap of the game for the rest of the season.

There's definitely something up with Wentz's accuracy. I hope it's a short term injury, but it seems more mysterious than just sucking all of a sudden.

The Falcons have always failed in the most spectacular fashion.

What are these GTA avatars for players on the FOX broadcast of SEA-DAL?

Wait, the Vikings blew that game? Aw, man, not being in an office means I can't hear people freak out about it on Monday.

And DK Metcalf gets Leon Lett-ed. Ouch.

I wonder if the Eagles are wondering if they should have kept Foles.

Nick Foles sends Eagles fans a musical message.

Mike Evans: 2 catches, 2 yards, 2 TDs. That's a late-career Jerome Bettis kind of statline.

My wife thinks I overreacted to that play. Says that Metcalf feels worse about it than anyone.

I railed for 3 minutes, describing who Lett is, who Steve Tasker is, and why DK messed up because I'm a childish sportsfan.

She pointed out that he's playing football for a living blowing by guys and I'm sitting on the couch.

Man, I cant believe the Texans lost that game, wow.

And.....are the Jets the worst team of all time?

The Giants lost by 27 to what few non-injured remnants of the 49ers still exist. The Jets might not be the worst team in their own stadium.

Russell Wilson is god. Debate me!!!

The Niners have a better set of QBs than the Giants. And a better offensive scheme. And head coach. And everything, basically.

The Jets, however, have shockingly scored one less point than the Giants this season. I can't believe they're both this awful. And they're both awful. The Jets are slightly awful-er as they don't have any defense.

The stadium is empty because of the bad play, not because of covid.

He and Mahomes are out of this world.

Watching Brees throw to Kamara all day isn't very exciting football. Kamara with the ball is exciting, but this is taking it one step too far.

It is known.

He would have had 6 TDs today, too, if it wasn't for that damn Leon Lett!

Before and after on the Watt Bowl. JJ's smile tells the whole story, and yes I did watch the entire season of ultimate tag.

Still would have been one short of football Demi-God Nick Foles.

I'm looking forward to watching Lamar Jackson on Monday, and I think MVP is still a tight race.

Also, I knew Russ couldn't maintain his TD pace through week 2, he only threw 4 this week.

Edit: dammit, was reading the weeks backwards.
