Dallas lost, but how impressive was Prescott?

Obv helped by their incred O line, but I think I saw one bad throw all game.

Most impressive debut from a rookie QB I've ever seen I think.

How good must the 6 QBs picked in front of him be?

Dara Kennedy again lead presenter with Sky.

Really?

FML!

I think Kevin Cadle pissed off SKY when promoting his book on the programme last year.

I have no idea why they don't use Mike Carlsen, easily the best analyst on British TV.

Can't stand Dara.. She's so wooden... Agree Carlson is the absolute best but his not a lead man his the guy the presenter brings in for his class analysis

They should get Tuchman or Nat in to host, and Carlsen as his wingman.

I'm still feeling my way with this NFL stuff, but this must surely have raised an eyebrow or two?

Rams 0 49ers 28

That was quite the upset, was it not?

Doers this alter any season projections, or was it just a freak result?

I had the niners to win. And my overall season predictions I had the Rams at 3 wins. I put it down to the fact that they were the last division I got to and I'd been too generous throughout the others and quite harsh on the Rams. However. They're a one man team and from what I've been told the 49ers just stuffed the box and blocked the run. Knowing that they have practically zero passing game. Most teams will do that I'd imagine.

Definitely a shock that San Fran managed to do something, I doubt anyone thought it'd be that score! And that the Rams D, which is a strength for them, couldn't stop them. I would be surprised if they make 7-9 this year.

(saved my weekend however as tipped the overs in the Steelers and unders in that and the double. That and Eli Rogers got my blog back to near even for the weekend after an awful Sunday for me)

How risky was Oakland's 2 Point conversion call?

I always thought the only times you should go for 2 in this spot were if you were a huge underdog to win the game or you have a particularly shitty (or injured) kicker.

This spot where both offenses were moving the ball at will against terrible defenses seems like an excellent third reason.

Aren't they (The Rams) the team that Stan Kroenke owns and somewhat controversially moved?

Carr had hurt himself on the drive, so it wasn't clear whether he'd have been able to play on in OT too.

I think that was a big factor.

In tft. There was talk about home advantage. Or not 

Theory goes that if you're at home you'd play for the draw and overtime. Away from home. More likely to go for the win. Still only the 5th time in history I think that a team has gone for the win and got it

Any thoughts for tonight? I'm completely uninspired on it. Got Jets+2.5 earlier in the week. Which is now Jets-1 I'll be taking that still. Other than that. Really not a match I can pick much from.
