The Panthers got their act together in the 4th qtr and pull the upset in Philly (sorry Marty)
But my Bills have turned into an embarrassment :-[

An it was Carson that gave it away, completely lost his cool in the last 45 seconds of the game.

After that pass into double coverage in the end zone where he didn't see a wide open guy on the sideline that would have given us a 1st down and goal and also stopped the clock I just knew he was going to turn it over.  But I figured it would be an interception and not a fumble.

Now the Eagles have to go to London this week, after a game they should have won, not a good situation.

Now that I've seen the last 3 Chiefs games, this year's team reminds me a lot of the 2003/2004 teams. Offense good enough to make up for a terrible defense in most games.
Can say the same for the Packers only offense not as good, so only some games and not most.
Looking at the standings overall, there is a lot of mediocrity overall so and a lot of teams with only 3 or even 2 wins at this point that still have a good chance to win their divisions.

Looks like Jim Kelly's nephew Chad Kelly's career with the Denver Broncos is over..

The Eagles pulled off a nice win over the Jaguars in England :o
And the Panthers are carving up the Ravens number 1 defense 24-7 in the first half..
A lot of crazy plays going the Panthers way!

And the Panthers win 36-21 going to 5-2 on the season :cheers:

Eagles barely survive the Jaguars, and suffered a bunch of injuries, hopefully the extra week off will help with some of them.  At one point the right and left sides of the O-line were replacements due to injury.

I really hope this is the turning point, the first 2 drives by the Eagles resulted in turnovers and then Carson seemed to take command, the second half was more like Carson from last year.

And what a game between the Packers & Rams as the Rams move to 8-0 :o

My Bills play the damn Patriots tonight on MNF and I'm afraid to watch :-[

Packers trade Ha Ha Clinton Dix to Redskins for a future 4th round draft pick. Seeing as he was one of their best defensive players, maybe that was the first sign that they're considering this a lost season. I can kind of understand if that's the case as overall they haven't looked very good this year, but they are still only a game back in the division and all of their loses (including the most recent loss to the 8 and 0 Rams) were due in part to mistakes they made and a kicker going to shit for a couple of games. Kicker seems to have corrected himself, but maybe they don't expect the mistakes to go away. That said, they're still not very good and I still think the best case scenario for this year's team is a one and done playoff run for them.

The Panthers score 35 points in the first half against the Bucs -  a franchise record :o and hold off a rally in the 3rd to win 42-28 :cheers:
Meanwhile my Bills might as well not even show up to their games  :-[

The Saints - Rams game was a hell of a shootout.
