Team captains are Warner, Purdy, Deebo, CMC, Kittle, Trent, Bosa, and Juice.

I would have liked to see somebody in the secondary instead of Juice. That way you have a captain at every position group except special teams.

The opposite of that.

Thanks for the heads up because I'm one of these customers. Probably should have dropped DirecTV a long time ago.

It's not Directv. This is on Disney. Directv wants to be able to offer Disney owned channels as stand a;ones instead of the entire package. They realize that not everyone watches sports and not everyone wants the Disney channel or FX. What Disney is doing is making people pay for channels they don't want.

That's nice and symmetrical but they don't care about that. Even though this team is a meritocracy they still have a kind of unwritten hierarchy among the players. Juice is probably 3rd or 4th in the order. Just think of it like he's accrued a s**t ton of stock in the company. He wields a helluva lot of clout and influence in the locker room.

Honestly, I don't care who it's on. Being a DirecTV customer, I expect to not ever have major channels like ESPN & ABC "go dark." Maybe I should look closer at adding more streaming options...already have Netflix & Amazon Prime. I also have Hulu and perhaps if you have the Hulu ESPN+ package you can see the game this Monday? Not sure how ESPN+ works.

Troy Aikman on Brock Purdy, who faces off against the Jets in the first MNF game of the season:

"I'm a big fan of Brock Purdy's and if he had been a first round pick we'd all be talking about what an amazing player he is."

No. The Jets might make it if they luck out eg injuries to Mahomes, Jackson, Burrow.

We have no chance.
