Even though it's very early in the season, the Saints losing tonight still makes that comeback win yesterday even more important for the Cowboys. With a few NFC teams already off to 2-0 starts.

Agreed, we may be a contender! If we can at the very least hold our own in Seattle, a hard place for a road team to win, I think I'd feel safe saying we're a contender. Especially when our team starts gelling.

The Seahawks won't have fans which is the reason they were so hard to beat at home.

And Gallup's call? The two are mutually exclusive.

The defense cannot grab, hold or impede. The second they do it's a PI.

The call may have been ":great"...but is a direct opposite of the Gallup call.

I still would have punted. But, congrats to the Raiders.

This is true. And I think they may have a hard time with our running game as long as we don't fumble. After watching the Pats game, I think we can beat them. They are not the Legion of Boom anymore either. I saw Cam torch their DBs a few times, and I think Dak's arm, and our WRs give us every chance in the world to say we should at least hold even on O. The question is, can our D not suck? As long as our D plays sort of average, we should win.

I knew the Raiders were gonna be really good this year. Called that one.

Can't keep the Gruden down for long, he'll rise eventually.

Vegas seems to bring out the best in sports home teams. But then, I'm a Golden Knights fan when it comes to hockey.

Eh, the Rams needed help from the refs to beat us and we’re pretty average right now. Philly is just BAD at the moment.

The Rams’ problem is that everyone knows what Jared Goff is at this point, and McVay has to scheme around that to protect him. It worked in 2018 until the Patriots finally dared him to drop back and beat them downfield in the SB and of course he couldn’t. Their offense is cute and effective on a week to week basis but you can win a SB relying on motion and eye candy to protect your QB’s fatal flaw (unless you have an ELITE defense, which they don’t).

cool story. The rams defense and offense look like maybe the two best coached units so far.

Goff has been excellent.

by the way the refs missing a call is the only reason Dallas got back into the Rams game. IF they call the roughing the passer there is probably no comeback at all.

LA at Buffalo is setup to be a great game this week. Excellent teams with good coaches and good defenses and Josh Allen the guy playing the best in the league at the moment.
