    His arm wasn't moving forward, fumble is the right call.

    "Delay of game - defense; trying to call a timeout when they don't have any."

    I said this last week, it would've been a big BULLET to bite, but he is PROVEN or at least close to what is called a shutdown cornerback. He was the star in a vulnerable defensive backfield. Combined that with their pass rush, not being as good as last year.

    But, they are HISTORICALLY bad which is odd. They've given up 40+ in 2 out of the last 3 weeks. The Saints and Falcons are high-octane offenses, but they aren't that good.

    Here, I was propping up the Falcons and I should've known better, especially with that defense.

    Atlanta is a decent team, but the defense is severely flawed outside of Trufant. Their pass rush sucks. Looked good last week vs banged up Broncos o-line and backup rookie QB though.

    They are a decent team, but top 5...I might've spoken to soon. Because, I knew they weren't as good as say NWE or Minnesota. They might can hang with Seattle. Though, should be able to beat most of the other teams.

    Blame GB for calling the timeouts.

    Since the Chiefs are making Derek Carr and the Raiders look bad, does that mean that they are a good defense again? I know after the Texans beat them there was a narrative that they weren't any good, is that still the case?

    It's not fair. Dallas gets a franchise QB undrafted then gets another franchise QB in the 4th they didn't even want... Has Football Jesus forsaken Houston? Where was football Jesus when the Texans were trying to get a QB!?

    Had no idea you said they were top 5. This is the Falcons you're talking about. They started 5-0 last year as well. I would put them somewhere around the bottom of the top 10 teams though. Offense can only get you so far - I think they're on the same level as the Chiefs but I'd rate the Chiefs slightly higher due to their defense.

    SMH at that swing by the Packers. Cornerbacks are awful with no Shields and an injured Randall. Dak is a beast. So damn accurate.

    No QB the Texans took would look as good as Dak has.....even if they took Dak. They don't have that kind of O line.

    Texans try to sign other team's QB castoffs. Finding, taking & playing one from the draft? Not so much.

    ...

    So ... Tony's next team?

    Bears? Bengals? Broncos? Cardinals? Chiefs? Dolphins? 49ers? Jets? Rams? Ravens? Redskins? Texans? Vikings?

    The powers that be decided that an o-line isn't that important.

    How many times will the jet sweep continue to work for the Cowboys? Does scouting still exist? That last TD was a joke and never should have happened.

    Jordy Nelson looks like he's lost a step.
