Tyreek Hill joined Gale Sayers as the only 2 rookies in NFL history with 2+ rushing TDs, 2+ receiving TDs, a PR TD & a KR TD in a season
Fantasy Guru noted Hunt's 246 yards from scrimmage set an all-time NFL record for a rookie debut in Week 1.

Donks didn't really do much but lose a HC/DC with over 40 years of combined NFL experience. Sorry if I'm not buying that they improved...they didn't and have a much tougher schedule. That RT savior looked like total trash...Semen is going to get hurt again this year.
McCoy sucks...couldn't do shit with Rivers. He's not just going to become some genius...his stripes are his stripes. [Reply]

I think you're missing my point ... "Dallas looked solid against an 11-5 Giants team...". Oh really? The Giants are 11-5? You base all of your comments about week 1 as if these teams are the same as how they ended in 2016.
Well, aside from Denver, you'll focus on what they lost... Dallas looked solid in a FG fest at home against a very marginal looking Giants' team without OBJ. But, that's no big deal... they were 11-5 last year. [Reply]

How bout this? - Denver has a better chance at beating Dallas because they get to play at home. (again)
Rinse repeat and add a new opponent 4 out of 5 times in the weeks to come.
But it's just a coincidence every year...:-) [Reply]

No, that doesn't matter...
Dallas was a 13 win team last year that couldn't beat an 11-5 Giants team last year, but they just beat them in a dominating display of kicking greatness. So, Dallas is 1-0, but they're still a 13 win team that beat a currently 0-1 team that is still an 11-5 team, in BlackTop's eyes.
Denver barely got to 9 wins last year, likely should have been 3 wins when you take out all the cheating, pile high, early schedule, voodoo mumbo jumbo that inflated their weak asses to 9 wins ... stuff.
Don't see any way the Broncos don't spend big money on a QB next year. Either they give up on Semen and go for a FA like Cousins or they give Semen an extension.

:-) May not matter to you and the rest of the Mule Tools, but it is an advantage that the NFL treats like a right every season. You have been the benefactor for so long, that you don't see it as an issue. [Reply]
