Announcers calling for Anderson inside the 10 instead of McCaffrey. Doubting his inside running ability.

Jesse James having a good half.

Not liking Ebron on the Colts. Poaching away looks for Doyle..

Fitzpatrick dominant again. Crab Legs SHOULD be benched when he's eligible to play.

Would be interesting if the Panthers signed a white fullback to block for McCaffrey, since the blacks seem rather reluctant.

You, of course, are right but this is the NFL. Rather than play the player who gives them the best chance of winning the Buccaneers will almost certainly play Winston when he comes back.

Unfortunately, NFL teams will continue to discriminate against white players and play black players who aren't as good. It's black privilege.

I haven't seen CM lined up behind a FB to run yet? So, we don't know what would happen. I think it would be very effective!
They lined him up behind a FB, but gave it to the FB! Panther receiver let the ball go right through his hands. Can't blame that on Newton. That's happened a few times today. Panther receivers are not that good.

Patrick Mahomes first half numbers 8/10 119 yards, 3 touchdowns 0 int. 156 rating :rolleyes:. Add that to his spectacular debut last week. There's no doubt that there's something shady going on behind the scenes .

Second TD for Kelce, Mahomes admittedly playing well against the Steelers "defense"

Is it bigunreal time again?

Mahomes has beginner's privilege. Defenses don't know him yet. When they get to know him he'll come back down to earth just like Dak Prescott and Deshaun Watson.

I'm watching the Packers - Vikings game. From a caste perspective the Vikings are a good team to watch, relatively speaking.

There is no doubt that they don't want CMac to be a running back. They like to throw to him but mostly just for first downs. In my honest opinion he will never get 15 to 20 carries a game. I hope I'm wrong but I've never seen a starting running back run the ball less than him. Now they continue to give praise to CJ Anderson and say that he needs to run the ball more. What a joke!

T Brian O'Neill now in for the Vikings. He was the Vikings second round pick and is very athletic.

Journeyman Ryan Fitzpatrick with 4 more TD passes. Add that to his spectacular debut last week. There's no doubt that there's something shady going on behind the scenes.

Unheard of what they're doing to McCaffrey. Obvious the league CANNOT allow this guy be a pro bowl player. He exposes too much.

As La France Blanche said - Mahomes has the advantage of no game film on him yet. Once d-coordinators figure him out the script will flip. Fitzpatrick has shown he is capable of stringing together big time performances as well as mediocre/avg performances. He was phenomenal with the Jets a couple of years ago. Fitzmagic is on a hot streak right now.

It's early but based on the way Carolina used CMac last year.. Not looking good for him at RB. I agree with those grumbling.. They're transitioning him to be a Slot WR.
