Adam Humphries looked like the Bucs No. 1 WR today so that is very good news, he finished 8 receptions for 82 yards and 2 TD's. We knew Humphries was capable of this on here, now maybe the people will recognize Humphries as more than a "check down receiver".

Agreed huge performance for Humphries, glad to see Fitz utilizing him.

The Rams just got shafted when they faked the field goal. It looked like Hekker easily made the first down. I had the sound off so I missed the explanation from Aikman and Buck.

That was a pleasant surprise, Fitzpatrick didn't seem to have good sync with him before.

I'm very stoked with the way McCaffrey was used, running behind FB, single back etc. Definitely felt like a premier back, not glorified slot receiver/decoy.

Yes, they have a tremendous offensive weapon with CMac. They would be wise to use him like that every game.

Pleasing to hear very high praise from Aikman and Buck for both Goff and Kupp. Rams are facing their biggest challenge yet this year.

Rooting for the Rams, but it's also a pleasure to be able to watch Drew Brees, a true master of his trade.

Watching the Broncos right now and witnessed River Cracraft return a punt for 5 yds! I had no idea he was even still on the NFL radar, glad to see he's made it on a roster.

Anzalone with an athletic interception on Goff. Highlight reel play, great catch. Aikman and Buck gave him deserved praise.

Not looking good for the Rams, down 35-14 with 0:26 left in the second quarter.

Brees with over 200 yards passing and 3 TDs in first half.

Zach Line almost scores a TD after a catch but gets knocked out of bounds at the one.

Keenum to Heuerman for a TD. Heuerman having a very nice game with some elusive runs after the catch in the first half.

Wow Elway is allowing Sua Cravens to play - the guy who quit twice on the Redskins and was given a 3rd chance. Sheer idiocy.

Yup Heuerman turning into a good starting TE, he has 6 rec for 62 yards and a TD! The downside is that whenever Jake Butt returns from IR his spot is in jeopardy.

Wilson with a pick 6. I think we can close the the book on Pete’s plantation. Goff, Garrappolo and Rosen should all get better/healthy next year.

And then the two point conversion! Tie game!

O’Brian’s “Blexans” win again. Their win steak has been hard to watch. JJ Watt did record his ninth sack, however.

It's been more based on luck than anything. The only game I will give them credit for is the Jacksonville game. Watson is not an elite QB at all - lots of easy passes.
