    Oddly enough, I'm predicting a rematch and payback for ATL.

    Still no love for Miami! I think Miami does better than Buffalo who seems to be tanking this year. I see Detroit being better than Chicago.

    I think the AFC West and NFC South are the most balanced divisions with anything that could happen. The NFC East should be interesting too.

    Madden Curse still going strong! Stick a Patriot or Cowboy player on the cover every year.

    Brady was 16-36 (45% QBR) and it was his 5th worst game as a starter. Kudos to the fine folks at EA!

    I'll take a Patriots loss any day! Andy Reid is under appreciated so much. Philly should have never let him go. I realize it sucks when a coach "only" brings you to conference championships every year. Clearly any coach that doesn't win a Super Bowl in less than 10 years should be fired lol.

    Lol Tex-Anns.

    Ugly win for Pittsburgh but I liked seeing TJ Watt go off. Can't wait to wear my black and gold Watt jersey in Houston.

    Hmm. I guess this award is fixed and Jeremy Fowler let the cat out of the bag.

    Speaking of Nostradumbass, I found out what he's been up to lately.

    In the words of Samuel L. Jackson's character in Jurassic Park, hold onto your butts. We're going down the fucking rabbit hole of all rabbit holes.

    He ain't the owner of the blog, but from the week 1 and week 2 posts, he is a frequent commenter and apparently has graduated from claiming injuries are faked to pulling random numbers out of his ass as justifications for why games are rigged in one team's favor. Still quite unsuccessfully it would appear.

    Timmons suspended indefinitely by Miami. Miami now trades for LB. I think Timmons is cut and I see a fight over that FULLY guaranteed contract for two years. Still don't know why Timmons took off and was found by cops Sunday morning in the airport. Caught everyone off guard. Don't know if it was a fight with his family or anger or depression. Doesn't sound like it was related to his role on the team as he was expected to start and play a lot.

    He was at Steelers practice the Friday before Pittsburgh's opener (of course, he had evacuated). I read that he is unhappy with the Dolphins organization (not everyone can be Pittsburgh). Sounds like he may just regret leaving the Steelers?

    That sounds the most logical but there was talk of him seeing a doctor or having a personal issue. Either way, you can't just take off and tell nobody. He's a veteran that knows this business. He got a 2 year $12M contract that was pretty much fully guaranteed but this suspension probably nullifies some of that and they can go after the signing bonus. Sounds like Gase doesn't like or believe his reasons and is super pissed.

    They have done a good job of keeping things quiet. I'd like to know more but after trading for Anthony I think he is done in Miami. The Dolphins cap after having paid Cutler $10M+ this season is not going to be in great shape moving forward. Their secondary is still slow and their LBs are still bad. Signing Alonso to all that money along with Branch at DE were mistakes too imo.

    Whatever the case, hopefully he gets his head straight. He was always dependable and was a good citizen in Pittsburgh.

    I agree though, it appears his days in Miami are over.

    The only formula that makes sense after looking at that site:

    QBs Birthdate + Head Coach Losses - Franchise Wins = Pathetic Chronic Masturbators in Momma's Basement

    That shit is BEYOND idiotic. Good find, Smooth!

    They are saying they won't comment on it publicly. They also said the trade for Anthony was in works before this. Maybe he still comes back but he is out this week. Still don't know why he took of to the airport and told nobody.

    Hopefully he is ok mentally. Could be scary to himself and family.

    I read he was flying to PA to see his daughter. Who knows why?
