This officiating crew sure loves their camera time.

They really need to go to Thursday night games being between two teams coming off their bye weeks. Give them 10 days off between games, and then you get another 10 day break before you play again. As it is, the product almost always sucks with just 3 days off between games.

Defense was impeccable that second half and it was still barely enough. Gonna be a very up and down season for the Bears.

Brady apparently can't count to 4 anymore. Didn't realize it was 4th down on the last play.

Uh. This doesn't make any sense to me.

Do the Bears have a HOF QB I don't know about?

So would the 0-4 Jets consider it a good thing or bad if the second test confirms the positive result?  ;)

Fortunately (?) for the Jets, it was a false positive.

That, after yelling at teammates for making mistakes.

He also threw a bunch of shytty passes.

Both he and his coach told media afterward that of course he knew what down it was. So makes mistakes, blames others, and won't even admit when he obviously made an error.

I thought Brady said something like "like it was poor execution," which was him basically admitting he forgot without him saying he forgot.

Ariens said "of course he remembered" which, although completely false, was the right thing for a coach to say.

Anyway he made a couple of nice throws early but as the game wore on, his accuracy and zip seemed to slip.  It's gotta be tough to be one of these older quarterbacks, who have so much understanding of what a defense is trying to do and where they want to go with the ball, but they are physically not able to do what they used to.

His yelling was after Ryan Jensen played maybe the worst drive I've ever seen from an individual OL, so that one felt justified. But to your point, he looked an awful lot like a game manager

So Buffalo has to play Tennessee Tuesday night and then turn around and play Kansas City on Thursday?  When was the last time an NFL team had to play two games in three days?  Seems insane/unfair.

They moved the Thursday game to Sunday.

Another TN staff member tested positive. Time to make them start forfeiting games. Lost revenue, sure, but for the sake of the whole pie

And thus ends the fantasy that teams can/should plan to play only a couple days after players test positive, when they clearly have been in close contact with other members of the team. You would have thought that the White House lesson was clear enough, but no. Maybe they will take this more seriously now that numerous games are in serious jeopardy of being cancelled.

Time for a football bubble?

Priority one for the NFL and its owners is protecting the shield.  Players and personnel are well down that list
