Heartbreak Hotel as the Great Al McCoy would say for the Suns Broadcasts.

The Vikings has just found ways to lose these types of games for a few years now. So frustrating as they outplayed AZ in my opinion. Another
tough loss to swallow. Cousins played amazing!

The Vikes are going to really have to battle for the NFC Central now. They entered this season looking as though they could take it easily. Terrible that losing by an inch is still another "L" and not a way to start. At least the Rams are doing good so far.

Kinda slipped under the radar today…….but Jake Funk has three kick returns for 70 yards……..23.5 average. Still no touches at RB.

I just saw the Winston INT highlight...one of the most comical bloopers I have seen. He has all the athleticism of a beached whale. As long as he is at the helm I look forward to a comedy of errors. Every single sports media person was railing against Taysom Hill so it is nice to see Winston play exactly the way he did during his tenure with the Bucs.

Ballyhooed Bears QB Justin Fields finished with a quarterback rating of 27.7. At least he he did better than Jameis Winston. Lol.

Jake Funk ran a 4.38s 40yd dash at his pro day. I don't see how he doesn't get a decent look at RB with speed like that. The fact that he is consistently returning kicks means they, at least, acknowledge that he's fast.

The talking heads are touting the matchup between Patrick Mahomes and Lamar Jackson. My reaction is who cares? I sure don't.

Agree.. Derek Wolfe inactive again.. will probably take a look at the first half, hopefully Sorensen can make a few plays.. I’m sure I’ll be put to sleep by the constant fawning over the quotas..

That pick six was on Watkins. It wasn't a great pass by any means, but he didn't even make an attempt at catching it.

Nice blocking by Sorensen on the return as well.

Yeah, it’s ridiculous how many wide receivers take plays off, quit on their routes, or even unable to properly run routes, yet the NFL waves them in by the droves, and prop them up year after year...

Same can be said about most DBs... utter incompetence...

LOL I didn't notice it until you guys pointed it out but now it's everywhere. Ravens get a big chunk of yardage, camera goes straight to Sorensen.

That's why white receivers are a good bet for teams. White receivers don't take plays off, they don't quit on their routes, and they run proper routes.

Thank god Sorensen didn’t fall down after that stiff arm... that would have been the beginning of the end for him...

Another NFL player to superhero comparison. As Freethinker pointed out during the draft, the league loves trying to pick up normies with these pop culture references.

... and then follow it up with a graphic highlighting the Chiefs' supposed improvement after going from 5 to 2 whites on the offensive line
