Notes

The referees will not call a pass interference penalty on the Patriots no matter what.

Brady got banged up early but stayed in game.  The offensive line played much better than in preseason.

The Patriots offense has so many weapons it is literally impossible to stop if executed correctly.

Chris Johnson looks great in open space but getting to that space has been difficult lately.

Notes

Matt Cassel is the worst starting QB in the NFL not named Brandon Weeden. Is it Brady Quinn time yet?

Julio Jones lives up to hype in scoring 2 TD’s. Roddy White effective in this game but won’t get credit.

The Falcons just didn’t show any interest in running the football this afternoon.

JaMaal Charles was very impressive in a 48 yard run in which he proved his cutting ability is still in tact.

Notes

CJ Spiller is ready to be a top RB in the NFL. He is very impressive to watch and possesses exceptional speed.

Mark Sanchez is playing with a giant chip on his shoulder these days.

It’s official: Ryan Fitzpatrick is bad. It isn’t the shoulder injury from last year, he is playing terribly.

Shonn Greene fumbled twice in the game. Despite numbers, he didn’t have a good game whatsoever.

Notes

Vintage Lions offense as they wait until the very end to force feed the ball to Calvin Johnson

The Rams are so much better fundamentally this year. Still not much talent but won’t give games away.

Brandon Gibson was Bradford’s main target today despite what that number will say. He is worth a look…

The Lions defense takes way too many plays off. They are great when push comes to shove but are lazy.

Notes

Ryan Tannehill just isn’t ready to be an NFL QB. He needs time to develop and this won’t help him

The Texans defense and special teams caused turnovers which resulted in 21 straight points

Arian Foster got his foot caught in the turf at one point and his knee buckled. It looked bad but he was fine.

Davone Bess isn’t a bad WR3 option in PPR league formats.

Notes

The Packers seem dedicated to getting the ball in the hands of Randall Cobb more this year.

Randy Moss is going to be a legitimate red zone weapon for the 49ers this year.  Think Plaxico Burress.

Frank Gore ran outside of the tackles more today than I have seen in years and had more burst as well.

Packers must get a running game together. The offense is effective but very one dimensional.

Russell Wilson is a great athlete but is just not ready to be a starting QB in the NFL.

The Cardinals offensive line is so bad that even a good RB wouldn’t do much with the lack of room created.

Braylon Edwards appears to be one of Wilson’s favorite targets and should get some consideration on waivers

Leon Washington had an 83 yard kickoff return and 52 yard punt return, neither of which went for a TD.

Mike Wallace is still the Steelers big play WR.  A. Brown is just a nice possession WR.

The Steelers lost RG Ramon Foster & RT Marcus Gilbert to injury during this game.

Knowshon Moreno looks to be plenty involved in the Broncos offense.  He may be a guy to keep an eye on.

Notes

The Ravens ran a bunch of no huddle and did it to perfection.  They had the Bengals defense on their heels.

Andrew Hawkins looked like a legitimate receiving threat for the Bengals.  He is worth a waiver pickup.

Joe Flacco is on his way to a big year. He has the eye of the tiger and seems like a guy who figured it out.

Green-Ellis is a solid RB2 running behind a very good Cincinnati offensive line.
