I am never psyched to see players get hurt, even in the case of Tony Romo. However, I certainly did not feel bad as both the Eagles and the Cowboys got housed on turkey day! The craziest thing is that the Redskins... as bad as they are.... they will be playing for first place versus the Giants this weekend?! Weird.

NFL week one takeaways for me are as follows: 1) The Washington Redskins didn't look THAT BAD... but they still have PLENTY of time to really disappoint me. 2) After taking time off from football since February, I am again reminded at how brutal this sport is by the laundry list of terrible injuries suffered by some of the most amazing athletes on the planet (How 49ers quarterback Colin Kaepernick got up after being blown up by Vikings safety Harrison Smith I will never know?!) 3) The NFC East is up for grabs because each one of the teams looked pretty bad for one reason or another. For all of the hype, the Eagles were especially bad.
