Starting ROLB Nick Perry is going to miss several weeks with a hand injury, meaning Kyle Fackrell will be starting in his place to really make this Packers defence look appealing - a Snow Patrol at LB with Matthews, Martinez, Ryan and Fackrell starting and Lowry starting at DE.

That Browns TE situation is strange. Telfer is still listed as starter, but has only played 27% of offensive snaps in the first two weeks (for one catch) - DeValve and Njoku have 45% each. I think it's fair to bump the Browns up half a starter - DeValve has 6 catches for 103 yards so far, Njoku...

9 of the league's 32 starting quarterbacks for this week are black quarterbacks - including Samoan/Hawaiian Mariota. Their average stat line: 19/33 (57%), 192 passing yards (5.8 yards per attempt), 0.67 touchdowns, 0.88 turnovers. If you average that out over a season, for the 2016 season the average...

Here's a name we all remember OSU Freshman Tuf Borland lead the team in tackles against Army with 12 (9 solo) with a TFL and a QB hurry. "Tuf Borland came in and did a heck of a job. Tuf played fantastic," Urban Meyer said. The offense is unwatchable but with Bosa, Hubbard and Borland (two...

Back to the game, Erickson is having a great game. 4 catches for 62 yards, a two-yard run, 77 yards on two kick-returns, and 48 yards on 3 punt returns. 189 total yards on his 10 touches.

Speaking of steelers and twos, TE Jesse James had a pair of TDs as well! Hopefully Matakevich can get in on the action soon too! Only had the one snap of defence week one, plus 19 on special teams

Probably scared they'll be called racists if their roster is too white - see Chip Kelly and the eagles. We all know teams would prefer to satisfy the left and "diversity" rather than succeed.

Can also throw in TJ Watt's two sacks and a pick (and some vicious run defense) in the weekly highlights

It hurts that two of the best white defensive players of the last decade are on this team, as the rest of the defense and the offense are almost coal-black. Tom Savage started week one but after playing poorly will most likely be reprieved of starting in favour of Deshaun Watson (who was just as...

Deceptive Speed claimed the Texans on Thursday but didn't get around to doing them, so I'm going to do them now (hopefully that's okay) to finish off all 32 teams!

Pretty much the same racial makeup of the 2016 buccs, which is a bad thing. Cameron Brate is still in a battle for the #1 tight end spot, being listed as one of two starters at the position with super-affletic rookie OJ Howard (see: no college production to speak of) - there is great depth at...

That Randall Telfer guy didn't add to his 2 catches and 4 yards against the Steelers, didn't even have a target. I don't know if Ourlads and ESPN have their info wrong (both have Telfer listed as starter), but DeValve had 4 catches on 5 targets for 42 yards. Pro Football Reference don't have...

The Dolphins were a surprise team in 2016, going 10-6 and making the playoffs, losing to the Steelers without QB Ryan Tannehill. The Dolphins will be without Tannehill for all of the 2017 season with a torn ACL. Matt Moore is named as the current starter, but Jay Cutler looms as a solid option...

The Jags haven't had a .500 record since 2010, and you'd imagine that this will continue with a pretty pathetic roster outside of star MLB Paul Posluszny. Blake Bortles will start the season at quarterback, but is very close to being canned by the Jags if his play doesn't improve quickly -...

The Browns have only made the playoffs once in my lifetime, and it looks like that dry streak will continue under a bad head coach, Hue Jackson, a bad GM, Sashi Brown, and a really bad quarterback in Deshone Kizer - he sucked at Notre Dame so why won't he suck even more in the NFL? Cody Kessler...

After going 13-3 in 2015, losing in the NFCCG and having Carson Palmer being robbed of MVP, the Cardinals fell to 7-8-1 last year. Palmer returns for his fifth season in Arizona and fourteenth overall, and at age 37 he could be nearing the end - behind him are Stanton and Gabbert, but you'd...

I'll quickly do the Cardinals edit: also done the browns and jags, will do the dolphins now

Yeah he does look very dark in some photos, but his face looks white and he has a very white name. He was talked up in the 2016 Boston College thread (http://castefootball.us/index.php?threads/2016-boston-college-golden-eagles.35531/) but yeah the eye test is a bit unconvincing. Could just be...

Rookie OLB Matt Milano as well I believe

Thanks, must have missed his name reading the depth chart. Will edit OP

Like the ravens, not nearly as many white players as there should be, but not the worst either and there's a few caste-busting players to cheer for despite game manager QB Dak Prescott being hailed as the next Joe Montana. Cole Beasley returns as the starting slot receiver, but with competition...

A slight uptick of 6 to 8 starters for the Ravens this year, with two star caste-busters at running back and free safety. Danny Woodhead missed most of 2016 with a torn ACL (14 1/2 out of 16 games), but was averaging 6.1 yards per carry on 19 carries prior to that, plus 6 catches. Woodhead is...

Despite having probably the most easy-to-hate quarterback (and possibly player) in the league in Cam Newton and a relatively darker team, the Panthers are a team to root for mostly because of three players - college sensation, caste-busting, dynamic, versatile running back Christian McCaffrey...

Definitely! I'll cover the Panthers now, and maybe one more after that if I feel like it. edit: Moving onto the Ravens as well edit: and the cowboys

The Chiefs aren't great, but they're a lot better than their division rivals from Oakland. Alex Smith returns to lead the team, but will have rookie Patrick Mahomes, system QB out of Texas Tech, breathing down his neck. Like most of these black system QBs out of college, Mahomes will mentally...
