The full games I watched this week were Rams vs Bills, Ravens vs Jets, Chargers vs Raiders, Cowboys vs Bucs. Also watched the end and OT of Steelers vs Bengals which was INSANE

Lots of sloppy play all around. Week 1 is always like this. The only team that looked close to being in mid season form were the Bills and Josh Allen.

Can't really set expectations on opening day, but I noticed a few things

Carr + Adams was a great combo for a half, but lost their connection partway through. I still think they'll be great. Raiders could be sneaky good this year

Jets defense was really good. Sauce could be the real deal. Didn't get targeted on much, but when he was, he was PERFECT.

Dallas has nothing on offense, not really surprised. Defense kept TB to one touchdown

Looking at highlights, sad to see the Jags couldn't pull off a winning start. Cool to see the Bears upset the 49ers. Mahomes looks insane but I was thinking the Cardinals might be a disaster. Nice to see Vikings get a big win against GB with their new coach.

Baker got FUCKED by the refs buying into a fake spike. He should have won his revenge game. Sucks to see the Browns win one, but it's fitting that they did it by cheating. Like all the teams, refs will be a bit rusty too. Saw a lot of holds and offsides not getting called.

My notes about the Ravens if people want to skip the rest of the post

Slow start + tough Jets defense was frustrating to watch in the first quarter.

Lamar was really inaccurate on short passes. Great as usual in long passes though; hit a long 55 yard bomb to Bateman who ran a PERFECT route. Bateman missed another that Hollywood 100% gets his hands on at least. Duvernay was clutch, Andrews was Andrews. Likely was a total flop. Not very many designed QB runs. The ones that they did were good.

If "games are won in the trenches" I have high hopes for this season. D line was impassable and ate poor Joe for lunch to the point where it was uncomfortable to watch at times. Could be a mirage with a bad Jets line though. Opening game after all

Stanley sat out this game and his replacement Ja'Wan James tore his achilles after coming back from like a 2 year absence. Mekari is a good 3rd stringer though

This punter is GOOD already. Holds for kicks well so far too. Could be the guy for the next 15 years. Best of all he's not a rapist.

Overall happy with the performance, but once again it's just the first game, hard to tell for any team. Look at the Packers first game last year lol (and this year?)
