Bills coach definitely strikes me as the kind of guy who might neglect to have his guys practice with a wet ball before a rainy game.
Announcers said some players said it was different trying to mimic footballs that had been rained on by just submerging them. Seems like it might be true.

Incredible series of miscues leads to the Jets needlessly giving away three points at the end of the half.

Jets open the second half with a 3 and out, Steelers almost lose a fumbled punt, and now Kenny Pickett is making his debut.

Allen (like Brady Mannign and many great QBs) throws a decent number of hospital balls
Wasn't this one of Brady's major skills (at least as his career progressed)? When he'd throw to a receiver going over the middle it'd often be purposefully low so that he wouldn't get lit up by a crossing defender?

Same with putting the ball where is he was off target it'd reduce likelihood of an interception.

The points Buffalo got before halftime were huge because they are monsters in the 3rd Q so far this year. Game was gonna turn at that point.
Yeah, it really did turn on that no call when Poyer got there very early. Baltimore had to punt. Then Buffalo went down and scored with the help of some flags.

Pickett looking clearly better than Trubisky so far. He stood in the pocket and got lit up as he threw a laser to his TE over the middle. Then scrambled in for his second rushing TD on the next play.

Absolutely love Dan Campbell going against the book there, going for 2 down 9. With 14 minutes to play, better to know if you need two scores or just one.
Hard Knocks made the Lions seem really likable

Did the Colts really just attempt a FG there? Down 7, with under 2 minutes left, at the TEN 33 yard line. Holy shit.

What does the bot think about Baltimore going for it on 4th down there?
