Bears win and go water skiing at Soilder Field, Dak injured, the Colts release Kicker Rodrigo Blakenship, Niners Running Back Jeff Wilson is secretly working with Tanya Harding, the 12th man sacks Russell Wilson, Aaron Rodgers is planning to kidnap Davante Adams and hold him against his will, lots of NFL storylines to talk about.

"Yeah, Tom Brady was one out away from a no-hitter, can you belive that? Anyway, Jack, did you guys watch the Emmys? My heartfelt congratulations to Lee Jung-jae, Zendaya, Lizzo's Watch Out for the Big Grrrls and all the other fabulous winners.

"Oh dear, now Brandon is making up Emmy winners. At least make them believable!"

"Big Grrrls is the best show on televison, Red. Bill Clinton and I watch it together every whatever day it's on. And you better believe Jill has trouble walking the next morning, thanks to these below the waist injections my good friend Hugh Hefner turned me on to. Gosh, I miss him. But I'm seeing him next month, we're playing croquet at The Hauge with Queen Margrethe to celebrate her becoming Europle's oldest and sassiest Queen."

Oh, that reminds me, I got an angelgram from Bender and he informs that Elizabeth II is doing great and drinking him under the table!

"Margrethe is the Queen of Denmark, not the Netherlands."

"Actually, toots, inflation is pretty bad over there and Denmark inflated all the way to The Hauge, alight? Tony Blinken keeps me apprised of this sort of thing. Just yesterday I recieved the new Ambassador from Wakanda, he got mad when I forgot his name and called him Corn Pop but these things happen, I told him Big Grrrls was on and that sure cheered him right up."

It’s going to be a long season for the “Boyz”.

Sunday set the pattern.
No Dak for a least four weeks, not that he was burning the stats with his accuracy.
Sad thing as a long suffering Dallas fan, I picked the bucs to beat Dallas. For shame.

But it did get my picks in the 8-7 average.

Here’s to looking to next year.

“Patriot and myself tied for the win”

The game appears to be fixed

At least 4 weeks... likely longer...

As you say, he didn’t look like a top flight passer out there anyway...

“Loyalty” made me pick them over the Bucs in the opener, won’t be a factor anymore at this point...

🤬

I gotten over “loyalty” last year. While I’ve never liked Jerrah Jones, I tolerated him because I loved the Cowboys since my childhood.
Last year broke me. I still love my boys I chose my picks outta reality,cnot any notion of loyalty.

Jerrah should just retire and get a real coach and not another puppet, aka Jason Garret.

So who gets the #1 pick next year, Houston or Dallas?

Looks like a long season for fans of both teams.

But after week One, the Texans have the better record in the NFL.

Man, not a good week. The Colts manage a tie, the Titans and Broncos and Niners lose in upsets. Glad I didn’t have real money down! On to Week 2!

By half a game. LOL

We were decent through 2019. Now we’re a joke.

Good luck to your team. I won’t forget what a class act the Cowboys were to us during Hurricane Harvey. Unlike the Rangers.

Won’t matter.

Jerrah does the picking.

Took Taco Charlton over TJ Watts.
Will do so again cuz Jerrah played football at Arkansas once.

Dallas was only “decent” against losing teams and in the NFC East which was the pitts.
First winning team they played in the playoffs they embarrassed themselves just like they did last Sunday.

What a crazy week 1.

Teams will be busy doing the shuffle, heads on the chopping block early.

My Chiefs were looking good though.

The Chiefs Defense will be tested this week against the Chargers,
a lot of new faces.

Home opener should help. Don't miss the flyover. Hawgs return to Arrowhead.
