Like most thoughtful fans of pro sports, I hate tired clichés. 

However, the old saw of "the NFL is a week to week league" is frickin' true.

So the fact that the Patriots edged the Bengals, took the Seahawks to OT, and then got trounced by the Jets means ... well, it means that the Pats are 1-2. All that means little when it comes to Week 4.

I’d thought their defense was still good, though. Maybe just an off-week for them?

The NE defense looked terrible last night.  Gave the receivers too much cushion and Rogers took advantage.  They just looked marshmallow soft.

Which strikes me as odd. That's a good defence. Or, it was last time I checked.

All I can say is I'm looking forward to the Bills D-line getting all up in Rogers' grille.

Doesn't help that NE* were without key starters on defense, including perhaps their best player, Barmore.

Fair. I also forgot that they traded Judon.

It is just such a delight watching Josh Allen.  He reminds me of Barry Sanders in that there is always a possibility that he might do something that should only happen in a video game.

Josh Allen's response to being called overrated is perfect.

Amen, amen.

We’re STHers because of 17. We feel fortunate to be in the stadium to see the stuff he does. 

But what about the Super Bowl blah blah blah?

I don’t get bogged down in that. It’s a losing proposition. Josh Allen is fun.

Amen.

It's like Bruce Smith, or Perreault or Hasek: it's a rare privilege to have a guy that good on your team. Enjoy it while you can.

I my view, Josh is 2nd-greatest Buffalo athlete ever, after Dom.

Speaking of Perreault and greatest athlete discussions, in the early-mid 70's, Buffalo fans could watch in person arguably the best player in 3 different sports - Perreault, Simpson, and McAdoo.

This is hard to argue against.

But, man. Perreault’s galloping athleticism is giving me some pause.

Actually Perreault and JA are kinda comparable.

Am I the only one who think the NFL hats this year look like they were designed by some guy at a local marina?

Al Czervik’s hat was better.

I read somewhere that even the manufacturer was surprised that the “rope” hat has become so in demand among both golfers and the NFL.

lol. i liked the year where all nfl caps had insanely small logos on them -- the 49ers especially -- you needed some sort of scoping device (micro? tele?) to make out what was on shanahan's cap.

I cannot comprehend how that stupid rope element could possibly be in fashion.
