Stafford not looking good except for a long TD pass. Kupp hasn't been targeted yet.

Herbert also struggling as Denver has shut down the Chargers offense so far.

Kupp with 0 targets. Beckham with 4 targets and 1 catch for 5 yards.

So far it looks as if the Rams are making Beckham their number one target.

Why throw to the best receiver in the league when you can throw to a washed up prima donna black receiver?

One catch for 5 yards hardly means he's replaced Kupp. If you're watching the game you'll understand what I posted above, namely that Stafford has played poorly thus far.

They do need a number two receiver with Robert Woods out for the year. Beckham will be given a chance to fulfill that role, if he's not good enough they're not going to forcefeed him for long.

Anyone else just see Aaron Donald choking that Packers OL right in front of the ref and not get called?

Harrison Smith with a beastly 10 tackles, 2 pass defenses and a pick!

Troy Reeder with a mere 13 total tackles. Like Alex Singleton, if he simply gets the snaps, he produces an ungodly tackle total.

Greg Gaines (DT) with 6 tackles and a sack.

It’s amazing how the Viking offense will dominate with Theilen heavily involved, but for whatever reason, come fourth quarter, seems like Cousins refuses to go with what was working, even if it means throwing into triple coverage.

on that 4th down play at the end, Thielen was wide open in the flat on a curl route for an easy first down. Cousins didn’t even look his way..

So frustrating; the packers would always do this with Jordy. After 100 yards or 2 TDs, they shut him down, as though he was given a predetermined cap...

i was just about to ask what happened with Thielen today ... with 12:42 left in the second quarter, he caught his 5th pass (on 5 targets) for his second touchdown. for the remainder of the game, he was only targeted twice? was the defense doubling him or what?

i see from the box score, that there were lots of targets to other players without completions.

similarly, Kupp was almost completely ignored early. at one point, he had 2 catches (on 2 targets) while Beckham had 2 catches (on i think 8 targets). is that because the defense was focused on Kupp or to “try to get Beckham involved?”

not watching these games, it’s hard to know the context of a box score and play-by-play report.

Stafford's stats are good, but he didn't play well for most of the game. There just weren't many completed passes in the first half.

Thielen had 5/62/2, catching both of Cousins' TD passes. He remains at the very top of receivers when it comes to touchdowns. Both had good games under the circumstances. So did Renfrow on Thursday, but then there's a big dropoff when it comes to White receivers this year. Beasley isn't targeted enough with all the talent on Buffalo's offense and after him it quickly becomes thin gruel.

Why do we have an unattractive 6'4" Black female "leading" the NFL halftime show?? Leading the narrative and in a deep disgusting voice telling us what to think, about...football???

I'm not pulling for the Ravens but that was some catch, one-handed by Andrews!
