Been pretty entertaining to watch so far. Great red zone D from KC including a fourth down stop.

Pats have moved the ball like clockwork so far between the 20's. Done a great job executing the no huddle. It is also showing so far why it's a dangerous game to have a Pats RB in fantasy though, seem to swap them out on each down.

Fantastic performance from KC. I think Kareem Hunt has made himself into a star tonight. Amazing how they keep churning out these running backs.

From the Pats putrid defence and not much better play calling from McDaniels on the other side of the ball.

Great win for KC. Alex Smith lives!

Yeah, I actually got 22 points from Gillislee but I doubt that's a regular thing as it was 45 yards and 3 TDs lol.

Just watched the game. Just came.

I'm sure the Patriots will come back with a vengeance and ultimately knock the Chiefs out in the Divisional Round, but let's just bask in the steaming pile of shit that was the New England Patriots last night.

More than anything I am still stunned that we somehow let Alex Smith burn us for two 70+ yard TD's. Shit happens especially on opening day and all that but that is pretty awful nontheless. That needs ironing out as next up it's the Saints in the dome and there is no better QB than Drew Brees to exploit that if it's going to be a trend this year.

The loss of Edelman was very noticeable as well definitely more so than when we lost say Gronk last year.

Edit - Just to add I thought Eric Berry dealt with Gronk better than anyone I've seen before in shutting him down. Real shame it seems like he's done his Achilles.

Baffles me how the NFL, with the history of fudged investigations and all the resources in the world, still can't seem to follow a proper procedure.

And this of course lets someone they've deemed as a domestic abuser then take the field. Baffling how the NFL never seems to learn.

Got to hand it to LA Tech, this is probably the greatest fumble I've ever seen. Not sure what you'd call on 3rd and 93 mind.

The Browns in mid-season form already I see.

One way for the Browns to dominate time of possession at least I guess.

Stunning play from Carson Wentz.

What Shazier just did to Kizer, change the name to say Burfict and he'd be looking at a ban for that.

Dalton in playoff form. My god - how does he manage to spend so much time as an NFL QB and never improve at all.

UPDATE - one of the worst QB displays I've ever watched, another half to go - can't wait.

Yeah, the Texans are horrendous. Even worse than I was expecting.

3.5 sacks for Calais Campbell for the Jags. Is it more the Jags D has really improved or is it an O-Line issue?

JJ Watt off the field due to a dislocated finger now.

Unless Tom Savage dislocates a finger, it won't affect the result of this game.

Watson might be getting his shot earlier than expected.

Bit of both.

The o-line is getting rinsed and Savage is just horrific. Some achievement being worse than Osweiler.

Texans have got to put Watson in, surely. Savage has been atrocious and maybe the O-line will wake up and do a better job of protecting the rookie.

Still, Bortles been surprisingly solid. Couple of risky deep throws though.

You have Joe Mixon and Gio Bernard and there are actual NFL coaches choosing to give carries to Jeremy Hill

Dalton is a fucking embarrassment - can't wait for him to retire
