Yeah, I know westies, it’s still morning out there. But for just once could those of us in the eastern time zones pretend that the world revolves around us? [runs away while giggling]

TO THE GAMES!

Fins/Bills:

I’ll actually tune in here and there for this one just to watch Josh Allen’s What Will He Do Next? Show. A sixty yard bomb? An intercept on a screen pass? A thirty yard scramble that nets five yards? All of these and more are on the table. He can do it all.

Jags/Bengals:

Auden Tate was targeted 10 times last week. It’s as though Dalton has no one else to throw to. Okay, maybe Mixon out of the backfield but that’s about it. The draft picks received by Jax are not expected to play today-one has tweaked an ankle and the other just needs to get up to speed on the defensive schemes.

Vikes/Lions:

Minny has won two straight and the Lions have lost two. The former need this one badly otherwise they’ll go 0-3 in the division. Odds are it’ll be close because all of Detroit’s games have been decided by 4 points or less.

Raiders/Packers:

Scanning the waiver wire looking for help? Green Bay’s wr corps are all kinds of banged up and someone named Allen Lazard came to the fore last week and caught everything thrown his way. You best scoop him up while he’s still in His Majesty’s good graces-2 weeks from now he may fall out of favour for tying his shoelaces incorrectly or somesuch.

Texans/Colts:

J.J. “Look at Me” Watts has found his form again with all kinds of hurries, hits and pressures. All that and 5 sacks to boot. Brissett is slowly but surely opening up his play-calling and the O is benefiting.

Cards/Giants:

Kyler and Daniel have some things in common, one of which is multiple articles written about them that goes something like this:”Rookie QB’s Are Playing Like Rookie QB’s”. Comparisons of all sorts will run amok today just like David and Saquon. The first one to 125 combined yardos wins.

Niners/Potato Skins:

San Franny is so committed to the run that ever since Coleman returned from injury both he and Breida are top 25 in carries per game. Is rook wr McLaurin matchup-proof? Today we find out. My bet is “no”.

Rams/Falcons:

Will Jalen stop the bleeding in the Rams secondary? Perhaps not immediately-doctors have officially declared that wound ‘suppurating’.

Have at it.
