Scores that make me happy

Commanders 35, Broncos 33. Why? Because I still loath Sean Payton for the bounty thing and will always loathe the Broncos.

Buccaneers 27, Bears 17. Why? Because I think Baker Mayfield is a good QB who got shafted by Cleveland. Happy to see him have a good day (317 yards passing on 26 of 34 attempts, 1TD, 0 INTs, and a rating of 114.5).

Bills 38, Raiders 10. Why? I'll never forgive Mark Davis for lying his way into Las Vegas. And he's a kind of a Douchebag. And I like the Bills better.

49ers 30, Rams 23. Why? I'm a Niners fan.

Feel free to share your happy scores

Lions lost again and it was agonizing and I HATE THE CHEATHAWKS!

I do like the Bills, I am glad they won.

Had they won it would have been one of my happy scores. I hate the Seahawks too. 0-2 would have put them in a bind.

Thanks for sharing!

That we have played the Cheathawks three times in the last eight years or so, and every game has come down to one score and a bad call and they come out ahead? And they kept us out of the playoffs last year when they beat the Rams in one of the worst officiated games of all time.

Maybe have a reply too!

I use it almost every week to follow my team.
You'll get redirected to an ad site when you click on a game, but just 'x' it out and you're all set. A minor inconvenience for free streaming.

Good to see Sam Howell have a successful day. Sweeter still that they beat Russell Wilson who had played for NC State. You are never safe against Wilson if any time remains.

Number one rule on most Secondary coverage: Knock the ball DOWN rather than go for the INT. I’m sure that will be covered by Washington coaches after the game.

The Ravens made it interesting in there playoff appearance last season when their backup quarterback almost pulled off a victory.

But Cool Brees spoiled Saints Fans rotten. It will be a familiar year for the Saints. Offense having to way outscore what the defense will give up. But the good news. If the Saints win the town parties, if the Saints lose the town parties.

I find Russell Wilson's cheesy smarmy fake-appearing positivity shtick to be rather annoying. Whenever he falls on his face it's kind of funny.

Also, Ron Rivera seems like a decent guy and new ownership always puts coaches in a more tenuous position. I'd like to see Rivera win enough games to stave off the pink slip one more year at least.

Wilson was a great QB when he cost $600K per year (rookie contract). Great athlete but his record is like Trent Dilfer. I agreed also on Payton.

For all the same reasons, except that I also like the Denver score because I get happy every time Russell Wilson loses a game. I'm sure you'll agree.
Go Niners!
