Joe Webb(Vikings) and Tim Tebow(Broncos) to start at QB.

Those 5 picks and several fumbles would make anyone watching them a better human being.

Well I get to watch my beloved Cards play today on TV, thanks to them playing the woeful Panthers. John Skelton gets his second start and I'm not sure I can watch two woeful rookie QB's play, so I'm hoping Skelton improves from last week, cause I'm not expecting Claussen to do so.

I'm curious as well, I've always found him to be a pretty sincere guy. Not his fault that ESPN creams on him.

True, it is the ESPN coverage that I don't like, not necessarily anything personal against Tebow.

For real.

We have a convicted felon and a guy that has been accused of sexual abuse more than once starting at QB yet Tebow seems to have more people cheering against him. I guess Im not sure what he has ever done that rubs people the wrong way.

And Skelton throws his first INT and it was a bad decision. Carolina goes in on the next play. *sigh*

Jeez, I picked up Cardinals defense; looks like I should have gone with the opposite in that game. Might cost me $200.

Was there any talk in the other thread about the league investigating the Carolina Panthers' sideline for leveling a gunner last week? Just saw highlights on ESPN news of a guy getting up off the bench during a play to completely level a Falcons' gunner who was actually being engaged by a coverage guy out of bounds. I guess it's the Panthers so nobody noticed.

That was probably a bad call in the Eagles-Giants game. The WR was going to the ground when he made the catch and the ball got knocked out before his knees hit. Should have been ruled an incomplete pass on the review.

Could be worse, they've held the Panthers to 3 short field goals. Good luck with getting the money.

Charley Casserly on the CBS pregame show said the NFL was investigating the Panthers in connection to what the Jets strength coach did, but didn't go into details. Maybe he meant this.

19-3 Panthers at the end of 3, could easily have been like 31-3 if not for the Cards red-zone defense especially on 3rd down. With a chance to win the division still coming into the game, very disappointing that they are losing to a 1 win Carolina team.

Can someone PLEASE take Austin Collie's helmet for at least the rest of the season? There is no way he should be anywhere near a football field much less be playing.

Cards set a NFL record with 7 fumble recoveries for touchdowns when Hightower fumbled after a hard hit near the end zone...then they missed the 2 point conversion. *sigh*

Can't believe Reid did not challenge that. Where were his people upstairs yelling at him to throw it? I understand the refs missing it because the Giants player grazed him with his hand, but the replay clearly showed the touch and the Eagles don't challenge. That might kill the Eagles' chance of a comeback.

Today is doing nothing to change the fact that I believe Rex's problems in Chicago had more to do with Ron Turner's offense than Rex himself.

They just said that the Eagles might have though that the Giants' player only touched the handwarmer of DeSean Jackson, which would not count as contact. Didn't look like that, but interesting that that doesn't count as contact.

I can't get over announcers who bash head coaches for not challenging plays. They act like the head coach has an HD TV with auto replay in front of them. It's not their call, it's whoever is watching in the booth for them.

Cards blow two very ugly looking on-side kicks and lose the game 19-12. Pathetic.

Eagles pulled one over on the Giants there. 7 minutes left and down by 14, how do you not at least suspect they might try an onside kick? Giants coaching dropped the ball there.

That's the Bengals. Fuck up the whole season and then win late to blow the chance for a franchise QB.

Could the Lions road game losing streak be over at last? Get a FG with a few seconds left to go to OT with the Bucs and win the toss....

At some point KC has to realize they can give the ball to Jamal Charles more than once per drive.
