Week 1 the Lions could'nt beat a rookie QB at home. That rookie QB has not won since. But yet the Lions can beat Tom Brady tonight. No way the Pats are winning this game. You can tell. They are going through the motions. Because the commissioner has told them they get to win 6 games in a row after they lose this one. Jacksonville can beat Tom Brady, then they can't beat a SORRY Titans team with a back-up QB then a injured QB. The commish told them they get to win 6 games in a row after they lose today. This is why the NFL and Vegas are partners, and we the gamblers jusgt hope we are on the right side of the fix.

I have to think a lot of you kiddies have gone through your lunch money and will go back to your Xboxs soon. The whiny posts not even a full quarter into the game have gotten irritating already and its only week 3! This pasttime isn't for you son....give it up.

This is football.. Both teams in every matchup has a chance of winning. Not everything is a lock.

EXACTLY. Jacksonville and New England will win 6 games in a row after today. That's the payoff for losing today. This is ridiculous. The Patriots aren't even trying. This is hilarious

Really??? In the past 25 years only 2 QB's has won opening weekend on the road. Ironically it's the same team, the Jets. Jets v Texans 2009, Jets v Lions 2 weeks ago. That's not a even match-up

Yep, now the Vikes will win 6 games in a row. That's their payoff for losing today. Biggest spread upset in 25 years

To be fair didn't Peterson start the last two games?i know he was responsible for the beating in Baltimore. Maybe Josh Allen is the real deal

Those last two runs the Pats had before the FG was pathetic. The best QB in the league and you hand off the ball, twice???

The three throws Stafford had to end the half, no one wants to go to the sideline and he throws it down the middle??

Rivers and the Chargers are down 12 points with 7 minutes left, he decides to run the play cock down almost to zero on EVERY down he has instead of running them to the line and at least try something.

You are 100% correct... There is NO explanation for the Bills today... There is NO explanation for the Pats playing this bad right now, everything told me to take the Pats, but took the Lions, and they are playing their best game of the season. This is all fixed, this is why I only play teasers, and the opposite of heavy public favorites.

.....or.....as the old saying goes....Any Given Sunday. This isn't college, bro. It doesn't matter how garbage a team looks one week or how unbeatable a team looks the next. They're all a lot closer than you think. The NFL has a thing called parity. Look it up.

I think you know nothing about football. I bet you've never played a snap, not even Pop Warner. If you had, you wouldn't be talking salty like this.

Parity? How many times has Cleveland won in the last 2 years? How many games has the Patriots won the last 2 years. How many SB's has the Patriots played in the last 15 years? How many games has the Steelers won last 2 years? How many games has the Texans won last 2 years. Those teams have a HUGE difference in wins and losses. There's no parity there.
