The Lions were good for one week. This week they were back to the classics. #Choke #SameOldLions

I am a little surprised to see both the Atlanta Falcons and Tampa Bay Buccaneers at 2-0 and a little surprised to see the Cincinnati Bengals at 0-2 and Los Angeles Chargers at 0-2.

Atlanta is a surprise. Tampa is only half a surprise. Winning in Minnesota was not expected but I knew they would beat the Bears. Cincinnati is a surprise. Chargers are a better team than that but have a history of starting slow and coming on strong as the season has moved on.
To me the biggest surprise is the Giants offense or lack there of. I mean they were shut out for the first 6 quarters of the season. While not a powerhouse offense they are better than that. Losing to Dallas is understandable but losing to Arizona as they are right now is a shocker.

Offensive line is killing them and defense is just not progressing right now. I still think they're heading in the right direction but this year is probably going to be a rough one.

It looks like they got things figured out in the second half finally.

I am enjoying seeing Deshaun Watson play mediocre. That being said, the Browns got a bit hosed. The refs missed a face mask on Watson. No not the times he grabbed one but when his got grabbed. How can they be all about protecting the QBs and miss that? Then there was the time he ran for a 1st down, Tomlin challenged and they end up saying it was a fumble recovered by Pittsburgh. I still not sure how they did that when there was no clear video showing Pittsburgh recovering. It could easily have been Watson recovered, the play is dead and Pittsburgh pulled the ball away. That was a HORRIBLE call based on video replay rules.

So going off the last comment, one of the things that gets me about the NFL is it seems some players are protected more than others. The chiefs held Aidan Hutchinson all game to save Mahomes life. One player will get a penalty called to help them while another player who the same thing happens doesn't. Its really all over the place on these calls.
I was shocked when they actually made the right call at the end of Pats/Dolphins but then all the announcers are like that's not 100%. My wife who doesn't watch football was like he's definitely short.
