Is it literally painful, or figuratively painful?
Luke 6:45   ...A good man produces goodness from the good in his heart; an evil man produces evil out of his store of evil.   Each man speaks from his heart's abundance...

It is better to be fearless and cheerful than cheerless and fearful.

I get it. He's not everyone's cup of tea. I appreciate that he generally doesn't take himself or sports too seriously and he can communicate using the English language without mixing metaphors. (Jim Rome not knowing the difference between "literally" and "figuratively" is painful to listen to :()

I just get so tired of national media acting as though we're total hayseeds and can be easily fleeced into giving up our talent that others covet. Like there were rumors this summer of the Dodgers getting Burnes and Yelich for som asinine return.

LOL! figuratively but bordering on literal.  ;D

Come on, a professional broadcaster should have elementary knowledge of the language, right?

I can't wait for one of these "professionals" to declare a NFL team with a one game lead and 5 games to go as "the leader in the clubhouse". Every year. Uhhg!

The Packers are no Memphis Grizzlies.

A little surprised McDermott didn't take that offensive pass interference penalty to make it 3rd-and-23 rather than ceding a 43-yard FG to the Jets.

Give Zach Wilson too many chances and he'll make you pay.

Not any more.

:D Farve, Rodgers, Verlander, Scherzer. Those days when they picked up a Reggie or a Messier are long long.

For a great QB, Josh Allen sure makes some questionable decisions out there.

Bears should try to get everything they can from the Jets for Fields.

I was thinking the same thing. I'd go beyond just questionable. Some of those were just flat out bad decisions. Reminded me a bit of some of Favre's old throws.

Pretty shockingly bad play by Allen and Burrow to start the season.

Buffalo was -2500 about 45 minutes ago.

Well, Aikman did call Allen a "gunslinger."

ESPN's ref expert says the Jets got away with a tripping penalty on the winning return.

I saw it live and on replay and didn't see anything except very poor coverage and lane discipline by Buffalo.  They over pursued one side of the field badly.

I'm no NFL rules expert, but the expert is an expert. But maybe he's wrong.

Doesn't matter anyway. It wasn't called, the Jets won, and the Bills didn't do anything to show they deserved to win.

I'm far from one either.  I just don't see where he saw any trip that was missed.  I saw nothing of the sort. The Jets didn't have to do much blocking on the play it was so poorly covered.

I think one of the last blocks by the 25. The guy from the Jets dove in front and has he was coming through, swung his leg back I think

That was a clean and very good block. Nothing at all illegal.  He didn't swing his leg back. 

mu_hilltopper

I was curious about the Jets other QB and his rating .. 81. 

Rodgers' rating .. with 1 incomplete pass, one sack for -10 yards is 39.6.

How in heck is the rating anything but a zero?

Safe to say that every MUScoop user has a QB rating of 39.6.

For any bears fans who want to rip their hair out:

My favorite play is where the right guard cleanly and on purpose knocks the center off his block. That is the kind of play that makes you wonder if there is a fix in on the game.  >:(

Lucas Patrick was gonna block someone? On the other team?
