Watson passed for a grand total of 125 yards. The MSM will try to portray this as a great performance.

Naturally , BSPN, states that Watson's electrifying run sealed the win. God, that network is so liberal pro black and anti conservative white. Hoping that the Texans go 1-15. F them and BSPN!

Damn... on another topic, i firmly believe that steroid use is rampant in the NFL as they are easier to obtain than weed. Also with million $ contracts at stake, a rational person would leave no stone unturned to obtain lifelong Financial security. Hell i have Gym Buddies in their 40s that have been on it for decades.

I bet over 90% of the NFL is on ped's. They get to pick and choose who they want to catch. Pro sports are a scam. A few years ago the seahawks had a running back named Turbin who had 20 inch biceps. It was painfully obvious. Vernon Davis was on tons of drugs as well as countless others. If the NFL cleaned up the game, linemen wouldnt weigh 330 pounds and defensive ends wouldnt be 275 pounds with 36 inch verticles. DWFs are just too stupid to realize this.

Before a brief bit about last night's game there is no question in my mind that the NFL "drug policy" is by far the weakest of all the major sports. Certainly baseball is stricter and basketball I assume is as well although neither one of those sports is full proof either. And forget about comparing tennis. Tennis is the STRICTEST as far as a drug policy and the NFL is nowhere near those standards but the media along with the NFL keeps that information in the shadows.
This Bengals team has confounded for several years now but the one consistent thread is when TE Tyler Eifert is out of action, Andy Dalton looks lost. Last night the Bengals were finally starting to show a pulse with Eifert and Alex Erickson making important plays but then Eifert goes down (injury prone his entire career) and the Bengals offense dried up once again.
Hot shot media hero John Ross got his first NFL touch and he promptly fumbled. I love it. And I don't recall seeing him on the field after that muff so at least the coaching staff did something right last night. Erickson saw perhaps the most action he ever has and he performed up to snuff. He is not just a return man. It would behoove the Bengals to have him on the field often in three WR sets but whether that dumb ass coaching staff follows through on that idea is another subject matter. Green, LaFell and Erickson with a healthy Eifert is a solid core and they should produce as the season wears on. Too bad the Bengals couldn't punch it through late in the game.

The NFL's ped use is deliberately ignored by hacks like Crissie Collinsworth, who last night was cooing yet again about how today's players are so much "bigger, faster and stronger" than when he was playing. In fact, I think at one point he exclaimed that the likes of Jadaveon Clowney "must be from another planet." It's impossible for a former NFL player to be that naive, so Crissie is simply providing cover for the cheating, much as the worshipful golf media did for Tiger Woods for so many years (and still does even as his body and maybe even his mind has completely broken down).

There was no more obvious drug cheat in NFL history than WR David Boston, who played for the Cardinals, Chargers, Dolphins, Bucs in the early 2000's. Despite resembling a comic book hero with a shrunken head, Boston was only officially "caught" by the NFL for PED's once (in 2004) in 8 years...

Other examples that come to mind are Redskins safety, LaRon Landry, and Bucs RB, Michael Pittman...

Landry was busted 3 different times for PEDs and Pittman was never caught once.

Vernon Gholston, probably the biggest defensive bust in draft history, was clearly juicing, but was never caught.

I don't know if this has been posted yet, but Jason Witten with 7 receptions last week passed Tim Brown for 6th on the all time reception list with 1,096. Witten should move into the number 4 position in the next 1-2 weeks. Chris carter is 5th with 1,101 and Marvin Harrison is 4th with 1,102. The next active player on the list is Greg Olsen 61st with 624 receptions. Jordy Nelson is 132nd with 504. Julian Edleman is 196th , 425 receptions and Gronkowski is 222nd with 407 receptions.
Speaks to the longevity, consistency, and toughness of Witten and his career. A HOF for sure.

If Bradford is hurt, this week and beyond, it will really affect Adam Thielen as Bradford is turning into the quarterback the Rams were hoping he'd be when they drafted him first overall. And with a much improved offensive line the Vikings offense is looking primed for a big season. But they need Sam Bradford to make it run.

The Minnesota Vikings believe quarterback Sam Bradford will be a game-time decision for Sunday's game at Pittsburgh due to an injured left knee, a source told ESPN's Adam Schefter.

The team plans to work out the veteran quarterback pregame and make a decision then, the source said.

With concern regarding the health of Bradford, the Vikings promoted practice squad quarterback Kyle Sloter to the 53-man roster on Saturday. Bradford is officially listed as questionable for the game.

A source told ESPN's Chris Mortensen that Bradford underwent an MRI on his knee Tuesday, though the scan did not reveal any specific damage. The quarterback experienced pain, swelling and discomfort in his left knee after the Vikings' season-opening win over the Saints -- the same knee he had surgery on in 2013 and 2014 to repair a torn ACL.

Expect C. McCaffrey to have a huge game today and Buffalo's thugs intentionally trying to injure him. It is just a hunch. Buffalo is going to get blown out today but I have a good feeling this is the end of the NE era as we know it. Some caste members will blame it on the absence of Edelman but as I just spent a week in Patriot's land the word on the street is that Brady has been really struggling in practice and I think if NO beats them that the Pats have at best a chance for a wildcard as the AFC east is pathetic but as sad as it is this really will not be a Patriots typical season.

Lawrence Timmons in a display of TNB has gone AWOL from the team and will not play today. They even had to alert the authorities over his disappearance. All over some sort of afflete hissy fit. Hopefully this means more playing time for Chase Allen. Would be cool to see a snow patrol on the Dolphins linebacking corps.

The Bears - Buccaneers game should be interesting. Glennon vs Winston. Winston was handed the Bucs QB job over Glennon without competition even though Glennon had played well for a young player.

I've got the Eagles vs Chiefs matchup here in my market. Kelse put a nice double move on the safety when they had him out wide. Big gain over the top. Announcer says Kelse is basically a WR playing TE.
