Dude took 7 sacks in one game and he was still slinging it up and down the field. Around here that would be an excuse to stink it up.

Even without the Henry fumble, I don't think the Ravens would have won.  They just couldn't move the ball much in th 4th qtr, at least until Detroit got the two td lead and relaxed its defense.

We’re not allowed to have any slinging. Just the sacks.

Yeah, The Ravens' offense was stalling out while the Lions' offense was humming. The Henry fumble sealed their fate but I didn't like their chances regardless.  But either way, Derrick Henry 4th quarter fumbles have cost them one game and cost them and an opportunity in another. That Bills game was over until his fumble gave them new life and his fumble last night made their chances go from "not good but maybe" to "we need a miracle".

For Baltimore, Trenton Simpson took a backseat to the rookie LB for the second week in a row. I hope Dan's calling up there right now to probe about his availability.

Surprised that the Texans are 0-3.

I doubt they or he would have accepted it.

This. The Micah Parsons situation is an anomaly and it takes a moron with a gigantic ego like Jerry Jones to pull it off. The vast majority of these superstar/organization showdowns end up with a massive extension getting inked after a bunch of talking and posturing during the negotiation process with everyone trying to get the best deal from their perspective that they can and then everyone making up in the end - basically the Lamar contract situation. That's the normal process of how those situations play out and why everyone just assumed the Parsons situation would follow the same path but then Jerruh gonna Jerruh. LOL

I am not.  Texans haven't started very strong the last couple of years.  0-2 Ryans first year and 2-1 the second year albeit against some bad teams.  

This year, the started off with three potential playoff teams.

The Texans and Chiefs will still find a way to win their divisions.
