Week 3 could be interesting

[Mainrnxile]

It's still really early, but this week could be interesting. I see 6 games having some lasting implications (or at least could have):

Texans (2-0) vs NE (2-0):
This should be Texans win IMO. Their stout D coupled with a mediocre NE O-line should be a major advantage. JJ Watt should have a big game, although I think NE will use Bennett to help out. The Texans rookie WR has been a stud through 2 weeks - butt BB and Matt Patricia normally do a good job minimizing opposing team's primary offensive weapon.

Pats fans are hoping Jimmy G can play after taking the needle - I'm not a doctor, but I'm guessing Brissett gets a trial by fire.

Denver (2-0) v Cincy (1-1)
It's going to be a physical game no doubt - but, less a Siemian melt down I see Denver winning by 10 pts

Detroit (1-1) v GB (1-1)
GB needs to win this game. Losing would put them in a significant hole.

Minn (2-0) v Carolina (1-1)
A Vikings win coupled with an above referenced GB loss would be huge. It would also put Carolina in the hurt locker.

Jets (1-1) v KC (1-1)
Neither team has looked particularly good thus far, but the loser coupled with a Denver or NE win puts either team in a big hole.

Pitt (2-0) v Philly (2-0)
Good test for Philly. A win would be a significant statement.

Pats offensive line has been playing anything but mediocre so far.

Yes they've been playing surprisingly good

perhaps mediocre was a poor word choice - but they aren't a top tier O-line, although they will improve dramatically as their injured players get back up to speed. In week 1 they kept Bennett in to block for most of the game - something I anticipate they'll do against the Texans as well.

Jut think that each team that is a possible afc division winner is playing another this week.

All the tie breakers that are happening is staggering. If there is a win we need early, it's this one.

It's a by-product of getting Dante Scarnnechia back as o-line coach.

That's a fact - he's a stud

Really pounding the rock has been the difference . I will reserve judgment until they are behind to a team a team with a pass rush and have to pass
