The roundup:

ESPN’s new Fantasy Football site and app picked a hell of a day to go wonky.

 

I always hesitate to say “Only Philly fans would do this,” but it does seem like maybe only Philly fans would yell a basketball strategy question at Brett Brown from the stands as he’s glad-handing, and actually get an answer:

 

And Brett, of course, wasn’t the only Sixer there. According to a French Sixers fan account, here’s Ben Simmons with Joel Embiid and Jerry Colangelo:

 

Simmons and Embiid seemed to really be enjoying themselves:

There was a custom Guy Fieri Browns jersey at the Eagles game, but this might take the week 1 crown:

The Cowboys losing and becoming (multiple) memes is the best:

 

 

Terrance William’s refusal to get out of bounds got him totally roasted by the official Madden twitter account.

 

Aaron Rodgers does what he wants:

 

When your team leaves you behind, you still gotta get to the game, That’s what Uber is for.

 

Sometimes life is weird: Both games involving last season’s conference finalist ended with missed (NFC) field goal, with the AFC teams winning. Also both AFC teams had a different QB playing than last season.

 

Jack Del Rio is funny. WHO KNEW?

Let’s check in some former Eagles: Kiko Alonso recovered a fumble.

 

DeMarco Murray scored a touchdown via the power of flight.

 

Sam Bradford didn’t play.

 

Andy Reid’s Chiefs pulled off the biggest comeback in team history.

 

That Roman Quinn debut? o-for-3 with a walk and a diving catch after his misread a ball.
