I haven't been on in a while and I was picking up with the rule and the Clay Matthews flag from a couple of weeks ago. The officiating is horrible and remains so week in and week out. To me, that makes the game less enjoyable.
Injuries seem to be much higher now than the past, especially since the new contract reducing practice, hitting, and many coaches barely playing their starters in the pre-season. I am of the opinion that your body needs to get used to the hits and game speed. Falcons have lost at least 5 players, a few to season ending injuries, and IMO, the blame is the new contract and not playing in pre season.

A lot of chatter starting to talk up the idea of a franchise in London. I still don't really see how the logistics work, but we'll see. Seems like it might be the Jags in 2022.
If the Chiefs keep the best record in the AFC, I'd pity any team having to go there in late December or January for a playoff game. KC is brutal in the Winter.
Playoff odds ?
Were a whole 6-7 games into the season .... they must be really bored for something to talk about.

Not really, with the state of sports betting it's an important forecast year round now, more than ever.

You mean like last year? Nah, look at Reid's career record. We put up with his settling for field goals in the red zone for years in Phila and now he's doing it in K.C.. Cost him a win in N.E. on Sunday. It's what he does. If you're satisfied with a winning season he's your guy. If you want a championship he isn't.
Cowboys send a 1st to the Raiders (who now have 3 in 2019) for Amari Cooper.
Cardinals CB Patrick Peterson has requested to be traded.

Steelers will take him ....
They need him desperately ...
Weather they would ever pay for him is another issue ...
Maybe they could trade Peterson for Bell.
Saw one pundit say the price for Peterson should be 2 1sts and a 4th, with the Cardinals giving up Peterson and a 2nd. The first reply was perfect... 'are they getting the 23 year old version at that price?'
How old is he now ?
He's only 28, but thats a lot to ask for, don't see them getting anywhere near that.
How has he been playing ?
Steelers picked up Joe Haden from Cleveland's scrap heap, actually I think he was more than they wanted to pay again.
Haden has played very well since he's been there ...
We'll take Peterson for a reasonable price.
Of course, thats Me talking, not the Rooneys.
On that team at times he looks like the only one actually trying. Unless he gets the injury bug he'll be worth whatever the price is. Apparently his preferred destination is New Orleans.
