Renner: Jim Schwartz’s impact is already being felt. ![]() This Browns defense finally looked like the sum of its very good parts. Gramling: Deshaun Watson joins Mitchell Trubisky and Cooper Rush as quarterbacks to ride to defense-fueled wins over Joe Burrow in September. ![]() Think of a new way to lose and the Chargers will do it. It was the Chargers against the Dolphins on Sunday. Ronis: According to since 2000 only one team has lost after rushing for at least 200 yards, holding an opponent to less than 100 yards, not committing a turnover and winning the turnover margin by at least two. It was as big a missed roster-building opportunity as any NFL team has had in the past decade - I’ll go to my grave saying that (which is why no one is coming to my funeral). Gramling: Roquan Smith was there for the taking at last year’s trade deadline, and rather than reuniting Smith and Brandon Staley the Chargers insist on featuring some of the worst second-level play imaginable. Tanier: Tired: “How DARE you compare Justin Herbert to Tua Tagovailoa.” Wired: “Well, he’s CERTAINLY better than Kenny Pickett probably.” They have legit difference makers now in Alim McNeil and Aidan Hutchinson. Renner: The Lions’ defensive line performance against one of the better offensive lines in the league on Thursday night is what makes me confident things will be different this year. Fins fans must feel good that Tua finally proved what he was made of and that, when it comes to praising the QB, it wasn’t just McDaniel blowing smoke. The Dolphins will make great TV for the rest of the season. Miami exploded for the most total offense of any team in Week 1 by more than 100 yards. Perez: No takers?! Maybe it’s just me, but what we saw on Sunday afternoon on some level felt inevitable. Jones: “Football should only be played in domes” truthers have a good case here. (I’m not worried whatsoever about them going forward.) Renner: Did we all forget the hand size that was the talk of draft season? Joe Burrow’s measly 9-inch mitts were no match for a torrential downpour. Ugly as that loss to Cleveland was, nobody is going to underreact to an early loss more than Cincinnati at this point. Paine: Yes, the Bengals are now 10–9 in the first halves of seasons since 2021 (and 17-5 in the second halves, playoffs included). Open? Gauff is the Cincinnati Bengals of tennis. Tanier: Did anyone notice how Coco Gauff would get creamed in the first set over and over again before coming back to win matches at the U.S. There was very little to take away from what happened on Sunday (if Kellen Moore had come up with designs for Noah Igbinoghene blocked field-goal touchdowns or Saquon Barkley-fueled pick-sixes he might still be OC in Dallas). And until there’s some affirmation that it’s closer to the latter I can’t put Dallas in the top-4 and fall asleep at night. My issue is what the Mike McCarthy offense is going to be - pretty good, or very good. ![]() Or we might have put too much trust in the Giants’ young offensive linemen taking a step forward. The Cowboys defense might be otherworldly. Gary Gramling: Yes, yes, yes, I watched the whole thing on Sunday night. They’ll be fine now that both should be back. They were missing two of their most important players against Detroit. Kaelen Jones: Honestly, I came away more confident in the Chiefs despite the loss.
