Pack Panthers

At Lambeau. See if Pack can prove the loss to the Chargers was a fluke. Otherwise, the division lead slowly melts away as does the confidence of the once 7-1 team. Pack has been awful against the run, and has more +40yd plays given up than any other team. McCaffrey's a beast. Can he be stopped? I think the one man wrecking crew is going to wear the Packers D down like Chargers did. And I don't think Rodgers regains his form for this game. I think the insertion of Adams back into the lineup has messed things up for some reason. Pack loses this one at home going into the bye.

Pack 17
Panthers 28
 
I think the Chargers played that way because the fire was about to get lit under their coach's boots. They have talent but aren't playing up to their talent level. If the Packers can get the running game going early I think they can win by 10.
 
Cam is a huge, strong guy. I'm concerned that Lamar Jackson will eventually break down if he keeps up with the running back act. He avoids big hits for the most part. That's all fine and good. Eventually a linebacker or safety will get a bead on him. I had a similar concern about Russell Wilson, and he's changed into a more traditional quarterback who scrambles but isn't as much of a designated runner as he was as a rookie.
 
How the H&11 are the 2-6 Browns 2.5 point favorites against the 6-2 Bills? I see the Buffalo defense doing to Mayfield what they did to Haskins, confuse and pressure. Bills by 10.
If Mayfield isn't parked on his butt all the time, the Browns could do OK. He's been beat around like a pinata this season, and it shows. He's neither Russell Wilson nor Lamar Jackson, so no protection means less than great results.
 
Can someone please explain to me why every defensive penalty, even of the least amount is an automatic first down for the offense? It's rediculous.

Oh you farted? First down. It's BS and unfair.
Offsides, neutral zone infractions, and illegal substitution aren't. Most of the rest are 10 or 15 yards, anyway, because they involve personal fouls or pass interference. Defensive holding typically means grabbing a receiver so he can't go get a pass, so even though that's only 5 yards, I believe the automatic first down is justified.

Okay, I'll consider that

I wish Phillip Rivers had a chance to win a Super Bowl.

I don't. I hate the guy. He's been a whiny crybaby his entire career no matter how good he's been. He's also had some really good teams and offensive talent around him and hasn't been able to generate anything good.

He is already the best quarterback to never make it to a Superbowl, surpassing Marino easily.

I do believe though that he is more deserving of the Hall of Fame than Eli Manning is.
