Welcome to the Week 1: first half of the first game overreaction spectacularWhere we draw radical, completely reckless conclusions from 30 minutes of football and they use to guide our fantasy teams, therapy sessions and internal monologues for the rest of the season.
Jets: Hope is a medicine and we all come back
The jets looked … good? At least competent. Such as: “You can still choose an attack on the field to make a sandwich” good.
Justin Fields looked like a man who understands football. We didn’t expect much, so we are of course ready to explain the new Savior of New Jersey.
Breece Hall still has the jets (word play) and seems as if he is the 2nd target in this violation.
Garrett Wilson was punctuated like some buc-es jerky. Remember that DJM season … Memebers of Pepperidge Farm ‘
And then there is Braelon “Vulture” Allen, who came in casually and robbed Breece from Glory. I hope you got Breece in PPR competitions.
Dolphins: Tua is written
I have defended Tua as if he was my childhood friend. I apologized. But he looked like he tried to support so far that he was hit by sales tax.
The attacking line was … not great. But Tua also continued to fall back so far that he was practically in the second row of the stadium.
Each game looked like it was designed by someone who played everything or is calling nothing.
It is early, but the combination of “Bad Protection + Haunted QB movement” is the kind of things that you make about early retirement, by fully viewing the breakdown. Sand weight!
Browns: The Backfield is a mess, but Joe “it’s fine” flacco still breathes
The backfield of the browns is currently a spiritual exercise in uncertainty.
It can ultimately be logical when Quinshon Judkins is with the party, but let’s just fool this and get cards that might be useful
In the meantime, Joe Flacco is here. Still. Throw football. Not great, not terrible, only that perfect shadow of “meh” that you spend through the first half of a Sunday.
Raiders: Geno Smith, wealth distributor
Geno Smith reads clearly How you can win friends and aim everyone. He is here in the morning the WR room as Dexter feeding with donuts.
Nobody stands out, that’s too:
A good example of team chemistry, or
A warning sign for the pass catchers here (other than bowers).
Steelers: Aaron Rodgers still throws beautiful spirals – from a wheelchair
Rodgers arm looks better than last year. That’s something.
Unfortunately, he moves like someone trying to turn a battleship in a bathtub. The pressure comes close to him and he just absorbs it. No clambering, no movement. Just standing for a long time as a proud statue just before it is turned by a truck driver who makes a backup of the truckback up (beep beep).
Patriots: Drake Maye, the least broken QB since Brady
Drake Maye looked … not terrible? He threw spirals at the right team, made decent decisions and did not look like a defective animatronic by Chuck E. Cheese.
In Foxborough that is called progress.
Rhamondre looks slower than ever. When do they give the running game to Mr. Henderson?
Falcons: Penix still has that scattergun goal, but hey – nice toys
The accuracy of Michael Penix Jr. Is still a work in progress. But the Falcons attack? Stacked.
If he can even get half of his throws near the correct zip code, someone with a pulse will house. As Bijan did.
Giants: The offensive line is still a disaster and Russ is just … okay
Russell Wilson is the coffee of 10.30 am that is still on your desk. Will it do its job? Yes. Is it as if it was ever? No.
But the offensive line of the Giants is trying to set a new record for “number of QB -hits allowed in less than 15 minutes.”
To be honest, he deserves a medal because he even stands upright during the break.
Bengal: too controversy that nobody asked for
Noah Fant and Mike Gesicki are both not what we thought they could be, but Fant can block a little and Gesicki can’t.
Perhaps it doesn’t matter to your schedule until you’re weeks, but something to look at.
Cardinals: New Year, the same Kyler
Nice to see that Marvin is not a march in the end zone.
Kyler is still the same kyler. Sometimes he makes things that remind you that he is ready to take the next step. Sometimes he makes a throw that makes you wonder if it should start.
Buccaneers: Baker Dime
Baker Mayfield dropped a very nice touchdown -doubling to Emeka Egbuka, but the rest of half was pretty meh.
The current game does not exist against a not large Falcons Rush defense.
Panthers vs. Jaguars: The game that we would all like to forget
If you have not viewed the first half of this game, congratulations – you have made a healthy decision. If you did that? Sorry.
It was just as bad as you thought. Maybe worse.
Saints: Go home marching, not seriously, go home.
Copy/paste over the Panthers/Jags over the saints. It is not Rattler. Alvin Kamara is at least still beautiful … pretty good. Ready with the sandwich. Beer time.
