Pretty good first round so far. Not too many surprise results for me, except for Titans over the Steelers, Detroit over the Vikings, and the Geno show over the Bucs. good to see both my teams (Denver & KC) get wins on the board. Dallas & Romo got lucky with Eli throwing a few too many Ints. Looking forward to the Manning Bowl next week, and I'm pretty sure Alex Smith & Co can take down the Cowboys.
I don't know about the Chiefs considering they only did so much against the Jags. Their season relies mostly on Charles' feet. Also how can you be a Bronco and a Chiefs fan?
Anyway the week's scores...
Broncos demolished the Ravens 49-27
Pats got passed the Bills 23-21, it will be interesting to see if they can find some receivers and a run game. Since Amendola already has a groin injury and Edelman isn't going to beat a decent secondary. Plus with Vereen's wrist surgery and Ridley's fumbles they are going to need to find Brady a supporting cast soon. I wonder if they can beat the LolJets next week.
We did get this picture from the game though.
SeaChickens got passed the Panthers 12-7 in a snooze fest, Wilson will struggle some this year as teams have started to figure him out. Plus Lynch needs to hit Beast Mode!
Bears beat Bengals in a close one, 24-21.
'Fins beat the Browns 23-10, but WR Wallace is already comparing about not seeing enough ball...and this is after a win.
Kittens beat the Vikings 34-24, try as he might AP couldn't do it all. Calvin Johnson went missing in this game as Reggie Bush took over but I think he was robbed (again) after making a great grab.

Colts just got by the Raiders 21-17 thanks to Andrew Luck. The Colts defense sucks and their offense isn't much better, Luck has a long season ahead of him carrying this team.
KC beat the Jags 28-2, Gabbert needed 15 stitches to close a wound on his hand and will be out a few weeks. Tebow to the Jags?
Saints beat the Dirty Birds in a good game 23-17.
The Bucs threw the game away against the LolJets and ended up losing 18-17. Revis didn't have the best game returning from his knee injury.
Titans beat the woeful Steelers 16-9 who lost three starters to season ending injuries in the game.
49ers took down the Pack (again) 34-28. Clay Matthews come up with this,

Rams defeated the Cards in a close one, 27-24.
Cowgirls beat the Giants 36-31 in an odd game where Eli played more like Romo turning the ball over a ton.
The Eagles escaped with the 33-27 win against Washington in RG3's return. The Eagles played fast and RG3 looked rusty.
Houston came from behind to beat the Chargers 31-28. I remember checking the score at half time with the Chargers 20 points in the lead and thinking to myself that they will collapse in a heap and Houston will win.
Week one in the books, now for week two!
