Tony Romo just noted that after today, the Vikings are 8-2, and have a net negative point differential on the season.

Giants at 7-3 are only +1 in point differential......The NFC just isnt that strong this year...the worst team in NFC point differential? The Rams -59...Only Pittsburgh is worse in the entire NFL

[chemiclord]

Want a sign of how weak the NFC is right now?

The Lions have the longest active winning streak in the entire conference.

[chemiclord]

Basically, anything more than 30 seconds and no timeouts is too much time to give the Chiefs.

[The King]

Parsons got hurt when they were up 34. Dak and Lamb were still playing. Wtf?

Herbert looked awesome with Keenan back. Too bad Williams got hurt again.

The Chargers really need a big back. I liked Spiller coming out but man, just imagine if they took Pierce. Eckler is a good player, but they can never grind on offense. They don’t beat you up.

And the Giants fall apart.

Thibodeaux has been in Dak’s grill all night tonight. Impressive game, even if he hasn’t t gotten a sack and Cowboys are starting to take over the game.

[chemiclord]

Thibs is going to be fine. The Giants got a good player.

It looks like, however, the Lions made the right choice.

Hutch didn't even make the stat sheet today.

Hutch is real nice in every way except his closing burst. It's terrible. You'd think a guy with his COD ability would be better at closing

Hutch didn't even make the stat sheet today.

And KT notched one assist on the day so…….

[Mainevent]

KT also had 5 QB hits, drew at least one holding penalty and blasted the TE 5 yards into the backfield to create a TFL. He had a very strong game, by far the best game of his young career. It’s kind of amazing he didn’t get a sack, but Dak made some great plays to get the ball out. He hasn’t had a big rookie year but yesterday was an example of what his upside can be, and that’s the rub with him - talented but inconsistent.

(Though if you listen to Giants fans, he’s getting held on every play).

[chemiclord]

Meanwhile, I watched the Patriots helmed by Mac Jones move the Patriots into field goal range in slightly less than a minute near the end of the half.

If Mac Jones and that offense can do it, any game management that leaves time for an opponent to get into field goal range needs to be put in the bin. If you're going to take a shot on one play, you better be damn well sure the opponent has no shot at all afterwards.

Depends on the stat sheet I think. It isn't always about QB hits and sacks. Hutch drew double teams, and he stayed in front of Allen on multiple plays that took away a run option at times. He also got Allen running a couple times whether he gets credited or not.

[Forsh]

The issue with Hutch is that any QB with any speed seems to be able to get away from Hutch if he knows that Hutch is closing in. He gets sacks because of effort, but they're blind sacks. He's a very good player, but unfortunately closing speed is something he'll prob never have. He should bulk up more and be a LDE
