Re: Around the NFL: Week 1

108 pass attempts between the two teams. 1 sack. That's pretty crazy.

Re: Around the NFL: Week 1

No one else has played yet and it's only 1 game, but I'd put them at the top of the division power rankings right now.

The late the Peoples Temple cult leader, Jim Jones, would agree.

Idk they lost to the best team in football and it was close. Lets at least beat the Chargers at home after they travel cross country before we do such things.

If we win that game we can win 11. If we lose that game we are looking at 7-8 wins and thorough disappointment. I think it is a good measuring stick game for us.

I meant I would put the Cowboys at the top. I'd put us 3rd. I think we're better than NYG but until we beat them I'll keep them above us.

To be fair, though....most games are close. Not all....but mediocre teams still put up a fight to the much better teams. Its not usually a total blowout.

I look at it like this, They lost to TB with TB playing poorly, compare that to our team that lost to TB (same basic team) in the playoffs. Do you think if TB had made 4 turnovers in our game, we would have lost to them? I don't. I think assuredly that our team's overall performance was better than Dallas' last night, and we have strengthened our team at several levels.

I do agree 100% that our game Sunday will let us get a real measuring stick for this season. Let's hope that measuring stick ends up saying WFT 41 - LAC 10.

Oh we might very well be better than Dallas. Maybe we are both playoff teams?
First week every team is rusty, and working out the kinks, shaking off the rust…..hence the poor play on both sides last night.
Im just reserving judgment on which team is better until we at least get a game under our belts.
41- 10 would go along way towards saying we are the better team!

Re: Around the NFL: Week 1

Nothing last night changed my mind with how this Division will end up. Dallas' offense looked pretty good against the Bucs with Dak at the helm. However, they looked good with Dak at the helm last year too, and they were 1-3 (should have been 0-4) to start the season...then he got hurt.

Their defense will probably be better, but there wasn't really anywhere to go but up. Their offense should be great if they all stay healthy.

However, the WFT are the Division Champs, so until they get knocked off - they are at the top.

That's pretty much how I view things as well.

Re: Around the NFL: Week 1

Good point CRed.

I feel like we got a better TB team in the playoffs, than what we saw last night. Pretty sure the turnovers in that playoff game were a wash, 1-1. If TB had given the ball away 4 times against the WFT in the playoffs, no chance they lose that game.

As it was, we only lost by 8 - the closest game TB played in the playoffs including the Super Bowl.

But all that aside, new season and we need to dictate our terms to other teams. Let’s go.
