Pretty sure the Raiders are the worst team in the league. Absolutely rolled by Miami...and the Dolphins didn't even try in the second half. I'd be shocked if Dennis Allen makes it through the bye week without getting sh*t canned.

Maybe the Dolphins should move to London? Wembley suits them.
Brutal second half by the Bears in the Green Bay loss. I knew they were toast when the Black Unicorn just missed scoring a TD at the end of a half. It's a shame to waste what was a really good day by the offense because of dumb turnovers and a complete inability to put any pressure on Rodgers.
It was also amazing that, the one play where the Bears did almost get to Rodgers, he shook off a sack and threw a ridiculous TD pass that was called back because of holding. He had a Bears player hanging on his leg and still drilled the pass in the back of the end zone over two Bears "defenders."
Did I hear right that the Bears tried an onside with a lead? And of course that just gave Rodgers a shorter field. But Trestman seemed to be saying they couldn't stop him so that is why they tried at that point.
I'll say it again--you people don't know how bad it can get
Dan Fouts actually said halfway through the second quarter in the game, right after Tannehill rolled right and had forever to throw a pass--"usually when you have that long to throw, you're almost guaranteed to get an illegal contact or defensive holding penalty. The Raider defenders just aren't close enough to even get a penalty!"
I didn't see yesterdays game, I was playing golf at an exclusive course but I figured going in this was going to be bad. The Bears secondary isn't great to begin with, now you have so many injuries it's absurd. They just need to survive to the bye week, hopefully going 2-1 in those 3 games.

Sadly, I think the secondary was the most productive part of the defensive. The DL and LB's were demonstrably worse, which is really saying something since about half the secondary are practice-squad fodder.

That play was ridiculous. If you watch the slow-mo replay, both his feet are actually off the ground when he releases the ball. Despite this, he threw a 25-yard JDAM right into the receiver's pocket.
The guy is impossibly good and I hate him more than words can adequately express. The entire NFL season is essentially one months-long tease where I just hope on every single snap that someone breaks him into teeny-tiny pieces and yet nobody ever does.

It was especially frustrating because the Bears offense played a fantastic first half. They were running over the Packers and Cutler looked locked in. They had a great play on Alshon Jeffrey's TD, and at worst I figured they would get in a shootout where the team with the last possession won. But then they just missed the TD at the end of the half, and the Packers came out in the second half like the comeback code kicked in.

Like I said didn't see the game but according to the stats they had 1 pass defense. That isn't exactly lighting it up. Obviously pressure plays into that but you're bot always going to get pressure.
