    Haha that was an absolute stinker but he's still one of the best young OLBs around, wouldn't be the best course of action.

    Anyways, just a question, why can't the NFL just even out the games on Sunday night, like 5 at 1PM and 5 at 4PM and 2 or 3 at 8PM? I can't see the point in having 10 games at the same time. Almost impossible to follow all the games at the same time unless you have a second pair of eyes...

    Think it's about the balance of drawing attraction for fans to physically go to games, and drawing the biggest TV audiences, early games being best for the former and late games for the latter.

    Good start for Rodgers, basically sacking himself and almost fumbling it, too.

    So? Most sports leagues around the world have kickoffs at the same time, like Saturday at 3 in the Prem. Obviously having more than one prime time game would be stupid, too.

    I know, but then spread it out over 2 days then, Saturdays and Sundays. Even in the PL you never get more than 5 games at 3PM.

    The time zones affect it too. West coast would have to kick off
    at about 9am.

    Saturday is for college football, it'd be really stupid for the NFL to infringe on that just so the minority of people who want to follow every single game have a slightly easier time.

    Well, actually. Looked pretty good in the air and very dangerous on the ground, but that may be because of our terrible preparation than anything else. Certainly a lot better than expected, though.

    Wow, that was very unfortunate for the Rams.

    Interesting, had seen people crediting him in the Raiders attempted comeback but wasn't sure if wasn't being over-egged somewhat.

    Great play by Mathieu, though.

    If they did ejections like in MLB, Harbaugh would have been ejected almost every game for shouting at the officials <laugh>

    He is a bit. Some people are calling him outstanding etc which is a bit much. He was very good running the ball and extending plays, but I'd imagine he'd not have had the same impact against better and more prepared defences.
