NFL Week 3

Wind could be a factor in several games: Buffalo, Cleveland and Kansas City. Have to look at deep threat receivers like Hill and bet their prop under; same with longest FG.

Must see TV: Justin Fields. Have a feeling he will make a few great plays, and a few big mistakes. I see 53 1/2 as his rush prop. I would be inclined to go over on that, but under on his pass yardage, esp with the wind. I also think both the inept Chicago O line, and strong Bears D line makes the over 4 1/2 total sacks in the game a play. If Fields was a stock, he'd have sky high option premiums due to his high volatility.

Yup, he's not an nfl QB, they should cut him immediately. Why waste the next 2-3-4 yrs beating your head against a wall.
I don't know if he's an NFL QB or not, I do know he's not ready now, there's a reason why Dalton was starting

As soon as Tua was declared out most 4.5s went to 4, ultimately 3.5.

What does that tell you?

Everyone said the same thing about Josh Allen, look at him now, still too early to tell with Tua, the bad thing is he's been injury prone going back to college

LOL at Brissett all of a sudden is a franchise QB. He is what he is, a decent QB who's a good backup, if he's your starting QB, you're going nowhere

The league has slowly evolved to run-option qbs.

Brissett is more now is what I'm trying to say.

Indy has a good defense. They're a playoff contender with Brissett.

Its hard to tell how good Tua was in college when he was surrounded by NFL talent. He could be a star or he could be worse than Brissett. That is a big range on a team that is trending upwards.

The league has, but if you can't throw.... Fields won't catch anyone by surprise now, too many have his skillset. Now if he's pass first like Watson, the Bears have something. I have no faith in Bears coaching or the GM to make this happen. ,

The Balt-Detroit final was very misleading. Hollywood Brown dropped two TD's today.

Wow! Okay, we'll have to agree to disagree on this one

I'm at the point now, where I feel like they make a move to get Watson, a lot of things need to get worked out, but I'm starting to think Watson will eventually be a Dolphin

Miami is all-in at this point, Watson could put them over the top. They would automatically be better than Buffalo if his head is clear (a big if).

The Texans asking price has been very high, they want 3 firsts and 2 seconds, the Dolphins want him, but not at that price, these teams will continue talking and at some point they'll come to an agreement. Even with Watson, I'm not sure that puts them ahead of Buffalo, but it puts them right there with them, no doubt

Watson rated in top 5 at QB ...miami has to pull off the trade. Then trade Tua.. The more movie film of tua his trade value gets less

I don’t think they’d be better than Buffalo. Obviously he’d be a big upgrade but I thought this team was dressed up (not as good as their record) last year. Then they stole a win in week 1 when they clearly were the inferior team. Then they were Buffalo’s bitch in week 2.
How ready could Watson be? No reps in the system: totally cold. At least he has one of his former Texan receivers there.

Someone is going to have to bring up the Dolphins decision to kick with 2:30 in OT. It's 4th and 2, is a 50 yd FG really a better option than going for it? If they get the first but then kick later at least they increase the chance of holding on for a tie. I really don't get the logic of kicking there. I mean it made my bet +4 a winner, but still I really can't see how NFL coaches can't figure out how bad your odds are kicking in that spot.
