    Ravens no huddle offense looked really great.

    Crazy how good they looked. AFC contenders really look strong out of the gate this year.

    Yeah, I hate to admit, but Pats and Ravens looked good, as did the Broncos. If Texans make the playoffs and push deep into the postseason, they are definitely gonna earn it the hard way.

    The Raiders are mixing up coverages, dropping into zones, running stunts, making tackles...

    So this is what a 21st century defense looks like.

    Yep. And even though its early, the Jets looked pretty formidable as well. I have a feeling getting a first round bye (along with home field advantage) is going to come in handy come playoff time. The Wild Card rounds could see a road team or two winning this season.

    Nobody plays their division foes tougher than the Raiders. It's all about what you guys do in the other 10 games.

    Tough man. Looking back on last season, that might have been our best opportunity to go to the Super Bowl.

    I don't think that's necessarily true. The Texans can compete with anybody in the league as long as they are healthy.

    Baltimore is a good team and they always come out fired up right out of the gate. I think New England's defense is going to improve but their offense isn't going to be quite the machine it once was.

    As long as Houston stays relatively healthy, that defense can keep them in any game.

    Candidly, the Ravens looked like I wanted the Texans to look. But, it is a long season.

    I wonder what other fans are saying about the Texans. They played like complete crap and still won by 20.

    was that blocked punt even the reserve long snapper's fault?

    Not at all. A guy in the "B" gap went through untouched.

    It is a miracle that the Raiders are down by only 13.

    Hey moes,

    Your Raiders are garbage, and don't deserve to have a player like DMC! Sorry but just venting.

    This has to be the worst exhibition of attempting to punt I have ever seen in my life.

    Talk about ****ing up a simple aspect of the game. Someone should be able to do it properly.

    That back-up long snapper must be so nervous...sad actually.

    I swear these MNF Radier games are the most boring games every year
