My Cardinals are now 4-2 after Kyler Murray threw 2 touchdowns and ran for another in a 38-10 win over a Cowboys team, to be blunt about it, played like kindergarteners tonight.

Everyone in the NFC East plays that way now. The Cowboys are the division leaders despite being two games under .500.

     Someone on the radio this morning said the Cowboys might win the division at 5-11.  In this year of bizarreness, would not surprise at all.

     Someone on the radio this morning said the Cowboys might win the division at 5-11.  In this year of bizarreness, would not surprise at all.

The scariest thing is that with the new playoff format, Dallas (or whomever win the NFC East) could possibly host all three weeks of their postseason preceding the Super Bowl

Programming note: For those who may or may not know, the Seahawks/Cardinals game swapped with the Bucs/Raiders game.  Seattle vs Arizona, which was previously scheduled on FOX, will move to Sunday Night Football.  With that move, the Tampa vs Las Vegas game, originally scheduled to air on SNF on NBC, will move to FOX.  Not the game of the week, which CBS has (regionally), but a 4:05 EST start.

Speaking of Tampa, if all goes well, Antonio Brown is scheduled to make his return against New Orleans.  It's a revenge game of sorts.  the Saints ruined Brady's Buccaneers debut, while the Saints passed on AB.  That aside, Tampa Bay looks like the team to beat in the NFC, if not the NFL.  Seattle still has at least one game to give, but unless something happens to where the 12th man can be made relevant in a possible January matchup, homefield would be meaningless.

Actually, if the NFL follows the success of the other three sports, it won't matter if the state of Washington lifts all restrictions (which they will not be doing anything soon, definitely not before spring 2021)

Lather, rinse, repeat. Falcons get a lead against Detroit and can't preserve it. 23-22 Lions.

YES! My Cardinals upset the Seahawks 37-34 in overtime as Zane Gonzalez atoned for an earlier miss in overtime by making a game winning 49 yard field goal. Kyler Murray threw for 360 yards and 3 touchdowns and added a rushing touchdown. Deandre Hopkins added 10 catches for 103 yards an a touchdown. The Cardinals are 5-2 :)

The Steelers are last remaining team.

Most pleasant surprises so far: Bears and Browns.

Biggest disappointment so far: Cowboys.
Adjustments that should be made to pricing games to make them fairer: Secret X: Add a 3rd SP so that perfect pricing ensures a win. 1/2 Off: Add a 4th set of SPs so that perfect pricing ensures a win. Master Key: Add 2 more SPs so that perfect pricing ensures a win. Rat Race: Add 2 more SPs so that perfect pricing ensures a win.

The following pricing games should be retired because there's no way or no easy way to make them fair: Spelling Bee, Plinko, Punch a Bunch, Pass the Buck, Let em Roll, 3 Strikes.

The following retired pricing games should be revived: $uper $aver, Give or Keep, Buy or Sell, Hurdles, Bump, Penny Ante, Credit Card, On the Spot, Split Decision, Add em Up, Walk of Fame, Barker's Markers, Magic Number.

Speaking of the Cowboys not only did they lose their game but they also dealt another blow when Andy Dalton left the game. I have a feeling there will be a hearing with Jon Bostic (Washington Football Team) and a possible suspension with regards to the targeting hit.

The Falcons win last night, 25-17 over Carolina. Perhaps the season can be salvaged? (Naaaahh!!)

That statement has more relevance in February.

Despite the skepticism over the optimism, two of Atlanta's nine remaining games feature Tampa Bay.  It is slated for Week's 15 & 17; so despite the "face" of the franchise, I'd take it FWIW

The Steelers firmly establish themselves as the class of the AFC East a 28-24 win over their archrival Ravens while the Browns have been exposed as pretenders not contenders.

The Patriots reign is clearly over after a 24-21 loss to the Bills as the AFC East is now a Bills-Dolphins fight.

The Dolphins win Tua's debut 28-17 as Tua throws 1 touchdown to Devonte Parker. The Dolphins actually scored touchdowns on offense, defense, and special teams today.  Outstanding all around performance by those Dolphins.

The Broncos completed an amazing comeback from 24-3 to win 31-30 as Drew Lock threw a game winning touchdown pass to KJ Hamler on the final play of the game

Meanwhile the Saints beat the now exposed Bears 26-23 in overtime as Will Lutz hits a game winning 35 yard field goal.

Tonight might be the first time that Rodgers gets to beat the team that passed him over.  Since early last decade, Aaron hasn't had much success unless San Francisco's roster was built to draft high in the following draft.  The 49ers have somewhat of an outbreak, but with Trent Williams testing positive and everything else happening so close to the game, I think Green Bay could actually avenge their loss from a season ago.  Not total revenge, but it might be something.

I'm starting to think that 5 wins might be enough to win the NFC East.  After Philly's win on Sunday, I think they probably could've clinched by now had it not been for the fact that the Eagles face NFC West & AFC North teams, to go along with their massive injuries

Atlanta is on a bit of a roll, staving off a late run from Denver and preserving a 34-27 win. Matt Ryan throws for three TDs.

My Cardinals lose to the emerging Dolphins 34-31 as both quarterbacks had fantastic days with Kyler Murray throwing for 283 yards and 3 touchdowns and adding a rushing touchdown while Tua Tagovailoa threw for 248 yards and 2 touchdowns as neither threw an interception. Ultimately Jason Sanders made his kick and Zane Gonzalez botched his.

The Bills upset the Seahawks to get to 7-2 as Josh Allen threw for 415 yards and 4 touchdowns. The Bills-Dolphins race in the AFC East is going to be fun to follow.

The Chiefs survive a Panthers bid as Patrick Mahomes threw 4 touchdowns and the Panthers attempt at a miracle piece of NFL history sailed wide right.

I didn't think a fanbase or team could suffer more than the Falcons this year but the Chargers are proving that wrong.

Even though we're less than three months away from the super bowl, it was announced today that The Weeknd (yes, that's how it's spelled) will be the half-time entertainment.
