Yeah, two fumbles. It looks like he dinged his hand on the last one, but he just completed a nice pass so he seems fine.

Tillman punches the ball out from Turner, he sure seems to create a lot of fumbles.

Well I guess moving that offensive line coach to be your defensive coordinator worked well, Philly.

Wanted to check this out, since he has a rep in Chicago of doing this. Over the last ten years, he has forced the most of any CB in NFL with 24, two ahead of Charles Woodson.

Probably them completely ignoring the LB position has a lot more to do with it.

Quite frankly, they should be down in this game, probably 14-0 or even worse. Of course, the Rams are the Rams, and they make game killing mistakes. Even worse, can the Rams fans stop feeling sorry for themselves? At the beginning of the game, when the dome was rocking, the Eagles had a tough go at it - but ever since that fumble, they've been quiet. It's only 14-7 guys, your team needs you.

Not much discussion yet on these games, but Bengals up 10-0 on everyone's sleeper Cleveland and Bills up 14-0 @ Kansas City.

It's not only that but many of them after the plays are looking really lost.

Andy Dalton is looking like he will be a successful QB in this league. He's making good throws, and not all of them are easy. He also has more poise now than Carson Palmer ever had.

Wait the Browns are a sleeper team? I've just been hoping that this is a 8 win team.

Steelers' run defense is getting carved up early.

Not a good sign, in the first game, from a veteran (re: old) defense.

I've heard a bunch of people in past week talking about their super-soft schedule, coupled with expectations of McCoy being a capable QB. Outside of the Steelers/Ravens game, it sounds like they have a bunch of winnable games.

Yea. I was looking at their schedule last night and it's unreal how easy it is.

Cutler has made a ton of nice throws in the first half, but just missed on a screen pass that would have been easy TD. Bears up 16-3 with one minute left in half. If they can take that lead to half it will have been an extremely successful first half.

I doubt Manning comes back this year. Too much invested in him, and Indy will be out of the playoff hunt by the time he is healthy enough to even consider playing. It would be foolish not to give him the rest of the year and next offseason to fully heal before risking his neck.

Maybe we're seeing just how good Manning has been all along. I think he's been viewed as a QB who made good teams great, but just not great enough to win it all as often as he should. Maybe his teams have been alot worse than we ever realized.

34-0 in a half is a mail in job by the team though.

Det 21:45 to 8:15 in terms of time of possession. Stafford has 265 yards in the first half. Only a INT is keeping TB in the game at 20-13.

Not just an INT. Stafford missing Pettigrew and Pettigrew dropping TDs hurt too.

Well, looks like Dalton is hurt and Gradkowski is in. Cinci loses easily now.

Steelers should have just scored, but Ben threw a floater that hung up long enough for Reed to grab for a fourth TO.

Not a fun one for the Steelers, but hopefully they get it all out of their system today.

Ryan, under a lot of pressure, dropped the ball and Urlacher runs it in for a defensive score. 30-6 Bears. Don't think anyone saw this coming.

I was talking about the 2 point conversion. Whacky!

yeah it was like he just placed the ball on the ground and let Urlacher have it lol. Definite surprise given how good the Falcons offense was supposed to be this season.

i did! any team that trades their whole draft for a flashy WR needs a reality check to realize this is real football, not FOF.
