Well with Bryce benched, maybe Carolina will be better now… its hard to imagine they could be worse.

@sorteddan Yeah, surprised by some of these results. Eagles are letting me down also. My pre-season picks so far are looking bleak. Kansas City is still on the winning edge, but just barely. Losing Pacheco might prove to be a problem for them too.

The lack of major dynasties in today’s NFL (KC aside) is credited for the popularity of the league. Fans of any team can come into each season with hope because good teams can’t stay good for long and bad teams can turn things around really quickly.

Man, hard to make much sense of the early NFL season. I really don’t know who to believe in. There’s not a lot of consistency. It’s only 3 games but very few teams have played well three times in a row.

As a Chargers fan, time to sim to next season I think. Herbert, Slater, Alt and Bosa all hurt in that Steelers game. As of typing I have no idea what the extent of those injuries are, but based on initial reporting in the game it seems like getting some of these guys back is at best case scenario gonna be around the end of October / beginning of November, but we could be looking well beyond that. I think we kinda knew the Chargers were a house of cards this season, but it really became evident when Slater went out and the offence just absolutely nose dived. I hope at least once in my life I get to watch a Chargers season play out that isn't altered by Herbert getting injured.

@Pizzamorg I know they say “injuries are part of the game” but it is frustrating how an injury (or two, or ten) can just ruin an entire season for a team.

The injury bug has hit several teams already. I’m not sure why, but it seems like players get injury a lot more regularly in recent years.

I suppose that is fair @Th3solution but when its always your QB who is basically 90% of the reason your team even works to begin with, its just so frustrating. You look at the opposite extreme, Stafford is working with
