Ditto. I didn't see it. What happened? When was it, Slick?

Las Vegas' latest NFL point spread for week 2.

Dallas is favored by -2. Heh! Broncos will take 2 points away from Cowboys!

Sounds about right, as far as the generic spread goes. I think Denver will win, but it will
be the Mile High Magic thing. On a neutral field or in Dallas? Nope. The O-line has to
gel, and the young safeties need more reps, as we saw last night. Until then, Denver
will probably have a good record at home and a dismal one on the road.

San Diego is better than Dallas

Disagree strongly. We're gonna have our hands full with Dallas, especially if Zeke plays.

I think Dallas is a good team, don't misunderstand me. I just believe San Diego is very underrated. They definitely have a better defense than Dallas. Dallas has a better running game, but I would take San Diego's passing game any day the week. Weapons are a wash with Dallas having a better offensive line, but Rivers is a better quarterback

remiss in blaming the refs for the interception. That was on Trevor, and he knew it.
I'm still tickled with the way he played, though.

I disagree with Leader of Men. That was a fluke.

I'm not sure. Maybe at the end of the game? I fell asleep when it was 24-14.

I thought Fowler was being held before Trevor even threw the ball.

I would have to watch it again, but between Fowler being pulled by the Jersey (whether or not reaching the point of holding left aside) and then it bouncing of Fowler's toe and if I recall the guy holding/tackling Fowler, before someone else intercepted it, I agree that was a fluke interception.

If I was going with an "outside that one _____" it would be the dropped pick six.

I don't understand . . .

For sure. Trevor played a good game after that, but that throw was miserable, and he was about as lucky as one can get . . .

Was going to say the same thing. The actual pick was just a weird play, and should have been a penalty to boot. The dropped pick six was a bad throw and bad decision. Sometimes these things even out

Agreed. I think the Chargers are good too, and I do think Dallas takes a step back this year. But their line and run game will be a major challenge for us. So far so good, but this is what that team is built to do. I could see them grinding us down, a la Oakland last year

like JC's fumble evening out that last second miracle he gave us in '15, when he was a chorf?
