    Pro's: Ryan Tannehill outperformed Luck and got the win

    Cons: Ryan Tannehill outperformed Luck and all you heard them talk about all game is how awesome Luck and Pagano are.

      For the Redskins:

      Pros:

      -The game is over, and as a Packers shareholder, I at least have a positive to take away from this game, unlike most other Redskins fans.

      -Alfred Morris did have a 100 yard game on just 13 carries, with a 32 yard run as the longest. It didn't appear that he dwelled on the problems handling the ball from last week.

      -Pierre Garcon continues to establish himself as the #1 target for Griffin, this time catching 8 passes for 143 yards.

      Cons:

      -The secondary is awful. I realize that the Redskins had to blitz to apply pressure to Rodgers to either try and force mistakes, or to try and force the Packers into max-protect schemes. That was actually the scheme I would have used today, but still, this game just proves how we are lacking in the secondary. It was nice to address those issues in the draft, but they are young and it's hard for defensive backs to learn on the fly. DeAngelo Hall is still a bum. Also, we lost Meriweather to a concussion.

      -RGIII is still not healthy. Looking at his box score, and it looks like he had a good game, throwing for over 300 yards and 3 TDs. The problem is that came once again in the second half, against prevent defenses. He has to sustain drives early to give the defense rest, and to set the tempo for the rest of the game. Teams are stacking the box against Morris and daring RGIII to beat them, and he just can't right now. These failures are also causing the Redskins to abandon the running game, which they need to use to control the clock and keep their defense off the field.

      -Kai Forbath needs to be healthy.



      -DeAngelo Hall is still a bum.

        Browns

        Pros - I bet against them for the 1st time ever and won $50
        Defense looked soild again. but I believe it had alot to do with the Ravens being flat

        Cons - Offesnse is pathetic. Weeden sucks and so do the WRs. Line is ok, but Richardson is our best skill player and the running game is no longer a part of todays NFL. Passing is what counts and we cant pass.

          Pros:
          we play better from behind with large deficits in the 2nd half..........


          Cons;
          we are always behind with large deficits in the 2nd half.......



          agree to D. Hall is a bum

            Raiders:

            Pros - Pryor, McFadden, OLine, Defense.

            Cons - Playcalling could be a little better. Didn't see nearly enough designed rollouts for Pryor, especially with playaction. Pryor also needs to get better at the read option.

            Marcel Reece needs to be utilized more. He is a huge mismatch problem for teams and needs to be getting at least 10 touches a game. Especially since McFadden is running hard and oft injured.

              Dolphins!

              Pros: Offense really seems to be coming together nicely.

              Cons: Tackling. WRAP UP THE BALL CARRIER. Mainly looking at you Jordan.

                Pros:
                - Defense. Once again, Gregg Williams is a godsend. The talent is being used in the right way and had their way with the Houston offense for most of the game. Exhaustion because of the offense's ineptitude is why they faltered near the end.
                - Jake Locker's 99-yard touchdown drive. Some of the best football I've seen him play.
                - Chris Johnson. Nothing spectacular, but had a solid day overall.
                - Kendall Wright. A few drops here and there, but he was shifty in open space.

                Cons:
                - The offense in general. It's so bland and so predictable. The blame will probably go to Locker (because we love blaming the QB), but Dowell Loggains needs to open up the playbook a bit. I can't begin to count the number of times a drive went run/run/pass. Give Locker some plays where he can take shots downfield and mix things up.
                - Kenny Britt. Numerous drops and holding calls. I wouldn't mind seeing Justin Hunter or Michael Preston get some of his PT next week.

                I should be mad about the Titans giving that game away, but I can't be. We couldn't compete with Houston over the past few seasons, so a game like this is definitely a step in the right direction - despite the result. The defense is legit and the offense can move the ball if the playcalling is better. Coming out of this season opening road trip at 1-1 is a good thing, and the team should right there in the thick of things come the end of the season.

                  Eagles

                  Pros:

                  Shady McCoy had another huge game. He might have 2500+ all purpose yards this year.
                  DeSean Jackson looked uncoverable.
                  Brandon Boykin had a great game. Might be our best corner.
                  Vick was solid. Took care of the ball, had the offense moving all day..

                  Cons:

                  Defense was pitiful. Might have been worse than anything I saw last year.
                  Cary Williams is the second coming of Al Harris. 3 penalties, SD owned him..
                  Desean Jackson took a terrible penalty before SD's last drive. Dude can not keep his mouth shut. Plus fucked up two sure TD passes..one he dropped, and the other by stepping out of bounds...

                  Overall, they pretty much played to what I thought they were. We caught the Redskins at the right time, and SD exposed the defense. But the offense is going in the right direction. The only thing that will keep this team in the playoff hunt will be this shitfuck division. I'm content with where this team is going.

                    Pros:
                    -Slightly more creative with Tavon Austin this week. Lined up at RB multiple times and even took a straight handoff. Caught two TD's.

                    -Brad Ford played a fine game again, made all the right decisions.

                    -Rams have yet to allow a sack, best overall OL since GSOT days.


                    Cons:
                    -Return game is a dumpster fire.

                    -Can not cover anybody, going young & slow at safety was a mistake, no corner depth.

                    -No running game. Richardson is a nice player, but a backup. His three backups are barely NFL caliber. It's a big problem. Tavon Austin might be the second best RB.

                    BONUS PRO:
                    -This rookie LB Ogeltree is some player. Rams won't miss Jo Lon Dunbar at all.

                          Can this be contributed to the other team being in a commanding lead that they relax on defense?

                          Pros:

                          -Defense played well again. Were put in a couple of tough spots with the offense turning the ball over but only allowed 3 points off those turnovers.
                          -Dan Bailey.

                          Cons:
                          -Romo looked way off. I read he had received a shot for his ribs prior to the game. That sounds about right because some of his passes were just bad.
                          -Run game. Might as well have Garrett call the plays if we are just going to abandon it early.

                            Pros- Matt Ryan looked amazing and Julio took another step to being one of if not the best WR in the game picking up the slack and then some for our offense.

                            Joplo Bartu is going to be HUGE for us this season, this kid was always around the ball carrier making plays.

                            Cons- our Oline is shit, pure shit, if Ryan was anything less than he is he would've taken 5+ sacks, his moxy in the pocket was the only reason he only managed to be sacked twice.

                              That's how I feel. Both teams ramped up into prevent in the middle of the third. RGIII is not throwing his deep ball, which is one of the best in the league, because he can't pivot on his right side because of the knee. Many of his passes aren't even passes, they are throws, because of the same reason. And he doesn't have his top-end speed or acceleration because of this same knee that's not 100%.

                              There's multiple parties to blame as to why he's out there- RGIII and his father, Shanahan, Snyder, Adrian Peterson (because he set a new standard for some.) But RGIII should not be playing right now, he should still be trying to get his knee right.
