NFL Week #4

[henry296]

Since I live in a market where our team plays the late game on the non doubleheader network, I only have 1 game : Redskins - Seahawks.

Let's start the discussion on the other games.

[cthomer5000]

Giants-Rams here. I'm not particularly interested in it. And that sucks because i'm going to miss every minute of the late games. argh!

[Greyroofoo]

Colts-Titans

Colts just scored on an absolutely beautiful drive

[cthomer5000]

Eli Manning to Burress TD. Manning coming out red-hot again. As bad as he looked last year, he's looked oustanding to me this season. His only noticeable weakness is a tendency to underthrow guys on crossing patterns (not leading them enough). His accuray on deep balls is obscene.

[Solecismic]

Nine minutes in, and both Mannings already have touchdown passes. Better get used to this in the NFL.

[Honolulu_Blue]

Roy Williams drops a potential TD pass on 3rd and 8.

Lions punt.

Paul Smith interferes with the fair catch. 15 yard penalty.

The Lions are so &^%*ing retarded.

[cthomer5000]

As weak as the NFC is, I think the Giants may end up a contender if they can get their defense into the "respectable" range. I think their offense is going to be frightening by late in the year.

[henry296]

Blocked FG by Seattle vs. Washington.

[cthomer5000]

Giants defense comes out, stuffs the Rams, Chad Morton has a decent punt return past the 50.

[Honolulu_Blue]

Good recovery by the Lions D.

Held the Bucs to a field goal on first and goal from the 1. In fact, they pushed them back a good 15 or so yards.

[MJ4H]

The announcer in the Jaguars-Broncos game just said "simularities" and that's the most interesting thing that has happened so far.

[cthomer5000]

Jay Feely FG, 10-0 Giants.

[henry296]

Josh Brown - 53 yd FG. Seattle 3-0.

[DaddyTorgo]

kaeding FG for the Chargers...3-0. Even game so far. Automatic Adam missed a 45+ yarder on the pats first drive

[Pumpy Tudors]

I'm a Broncos fan near Pittsburgh, and I'm about to go out wearing a Broncos t-shirt. At least the Steelers are off this week, so I hope nobody in this town yells at me while I'm out. I think the Giants and Rams are the only game on TV here right now, so this is a perfect time to get out of the house.

Thank heavens for the Eagles and Chiefs playing late, because the other game showing here is supposed to be the Jets and Ravens. I think the over/under of the NYJ-BAL game is 9.

[DaddyTorgo]

TD Pats. Corey Dillon. Pats ran it down their throat and threw a nice screen there after a couple beautiful Brady tosses. Looks like Dillon will be fine, he has 66 yards already so far or somethin (includin the screen)

[cthomer5000]

Giants decided to go for it on 4th and goal from about the 1 and 1/2 yard line. Manning audibles at the line, then tosses a TD pass to Toomer. 17-7 Giants.

[jeff061]

Dillon had a long run, he's not going to be fine. He gets hit in the backfield by 2 guys every time. The Pats O-line needs figure out how to run block, they haven't been able to this whole season.

Thankfully their defense has been pretty solid so far.

true. but the problem isn't with Dillon. It's with the O-Line needing to work on their cohesion and their run-blocking. Dillon still has stuff in the tank.

[Honolulu_Blue]

Lions tie it up at 3.

Recovered a fumble at the 30.

The Lions offense looks horribly inept. Jones can find no room to run. The wideouts can't seem to get open and when they do Joey's passes are off the mark.

The defense is looking strong though, especially the front four.

[jeff061]

I agree 100%. Their run blocking has been woeful all year, it's concerning. On the other hand their pass blocking has been outstanding, other than the occasional missed blitzer, which is acceptable with such a young line.

[DaddyTorgo]

well i think the run blocking will come with time. they're really missing andruzzi

[cthomer5000]

Manning to Burress TD. 24-7 Giants.

[mckerney]

Manning to Burress TD. 24-7 Giants.

I'm really liking my pickup of Eli in my fantasy league a couple of weeks ago. My Manning - Tomlinson - Westbrook trio should win me a lot of games.

[jeff061]

What a nice pickup Tim Dwight was.

30 yard TD Brady to Dwight, btw.

[cthomer5000]

Giants already have the ball again. St. Louis was back on offense one play. Long completion to Curits, he nearly gets his head taken off and fumbles, Giants recover around their own 45. I really hope I'm not facing Eli Manning in either league today...

[DeToxRox]

TD KEVIN JONES! HE TRUCKED THE SAFETY!

[cthomer5000]

LOL. Brandon Jacobs just ran through 4-5 Rams for an extra 5-6 yards in the Giants game. I love this kid!

[Honolulu_Blue]

Touchdown Lions!! Kevin Jones. Nice, hard run. This followed an interception by Teddy Lehman,

[Greyroofoo]

W00t! Marvin Harrison has his 100th TD!

[jeff061]

I don't love the Giants. But I Love seeing the Rams get their asses kicked.

[cthomer5000]

BTW, Penalties are killing the Rams right now. They've been the Giants a free 15 yards on personal fouls on 2-3 drives.

[jeff061]

So much for the Pats D looking solid :). Their line is getting pushed around a bit today, surprising.

[mckerney]

Tomlinson touchdown, w00t

[cthomer5000]

Jay Feely FG, 27-7 Giants. Giants have scored on every posession. TD, FG, TD, TD, FG

[DeToxRox]

Lions DLine is just amazing so far. I am quite pleased to see a semblance of a pass rush.

[INDalltheway]

Amazing interception in the Indy-Tennessee game.. Too bad they didn't let the play go before blowing the whistle, or the Colts would be putting more points on the board! :D

[INDalltheway]

Jay Feely FG, 27-7 Giants. Giants have scored on every posession. TD, FG, TD, TD, FG
The best part about this is that Barber hasn't scored yet!

[Galaxy]

What a return by the Bills to the end half, just fell about 2 yards short of the goal.

[jeff061]

Pats tie it up just before the half.

I hope their D-line reverts to their old self or this is going to be a last person with the ball wins type game.

[mckerney]

4:05 for Manning to throw another TD pass, lets go Giants.

[mckerney]

Damn.

[TroyF]

The "Browncos" continue to flat out dominate. What started in the second half of the San Diego game has continued through the first half against Jax.

No Champ Bailey. No Darrent Williams (the other starting CB). It doesn't matter when the defensive front four just destroys people the way they are. Warren, Brown, Ekuban and Myers have all made big plays today.

Jax has 48 yards of total offense and 2 first downs. I wish I knew what was said in the locker room of the San Diego game. After they came out after halftime, they've simply been amazing.

Their last 8 quarters (2 against SD, 4 against KC, 2 against Jax):

109 plays against - 374 yards against (3.4 per play) Not rush, per play.
On third down teams are 4-26
13 points against

Now, I understand Jax isn't the '04 Colts and that SD was struggling and that maybe KC had an off game. . . nor am I going to assume this continues all season. Hell, I don't know if it continues in the second half of this game.

But that's an amazing 8 quarter stretch and if it turns out that this is the real Denver defense, they may make a bit of noise this year. (so long as they don't travel to Indy for a playoff game of course) :)

[Philliesfan980]

What the hell is up Duce McAllister ass this year? When is he going to get started?

[TroyF]

And as I finished with that long post, Leftwich to Jimmy Smith for a long TD, Denver 14 Jax 7. Pretty run, horrible tackling.

[Greyroofoo]

3rd TD for Peyton, this one to James

[Greyroofoo]

Bucs are learning that you shouldn't drive a Cadilac around in Detroit

[Philliesfan980]

I think the Giants Rams game has got to be the longest first half I've ever seen.

[TazFTW]

Michael Turner is using the truck stick.

[Solecismic]

Booing the home team in New England, which hasn't lost in years. San Diego is starting to take control here.

[Greyroofoo]

They stopped showing the Colts :(

[jeff061]

This is about the worse game the Pats defense has played in half a decade.

[jeff061]

Booing the home team in New England, which hasn't lost in years. San Diego is starting to take control here.

And well deserved on that play.

[TazFTW]

4 TDs for Manning. Good thing I'm not playing anyone with Manning in fantasy football this week.

[Northwood_DK]

Finally some fantasy points by P Manning<O:p</O:p

[INDalltheway]

They stopped showing the Colts :(
I am sooo sorry! They are freaking amazing to watch now.. The offense is back to its old self and the defense is a treat. It is just awesome watching those safties come up and drill people!

[jeff061]

You guys need to specify which Manning ;).

[Greyroofoo]

I am sooo sorry! They are freaking amazing to watch now.. The offense is back to its old self and the defense is a treat. It is just awesome watching those safties come up and drill people!

Yeah, just my lust as soon as they stopped showing the Colts Harrison gets another TD

[jeff061]

What are you watching where they'd cut out of a game in the 3rd quarter?

[HomerJSimpson]

Yeah, just my lust as soon as they stopped showing the Colts Harrison gets another TD


Lust? Remind me not to watch football with you.

[Antmeister]

Go Chargers! Get busy! With your bad selves! This is an amazing game (from a San Diego standpoint) and Brees is not getting a lot of props. LT is, but not Breezer.

[ISiddiqui]

Hmmm... Eli is looking good today.. the Giants may for real.

[DaddyTorgo]

gawwwd. the pats are looking like absolute shit. someone said it down below, this is the worst defensive game they have played in YEARS. i hope this isn't a window into the rest of the season...

[jeff061]

Pats deserve to lose this game by 50 points. They're playing without a sack on both sides of the ball. D-line is getting pushed around, Brady has 4 guys in his face every play, and they can't tackle to save their lives.

God I hope the rumors about Bruschi are true, they need him.

[TazFTW]

4 TDs for Manning. Good thing I'm not playing anyone with Manning in fantasy football this week.
Ugh, just realised that while I'm not playing anyone with Peyton, I am playing against someone with Eli. :(

[DaddyTorgo]

they need someone. i was just saying, it's like they're out there on the defensive field without a leader. Say what you want about Seymour being one of the best DT's in football, but he's not a vocal leader. They need a vocal leader.

Brady hasn't looked half bad when he's had time to throw. It's just that in the second half he is getting no time.

[Antmeister]

First of all, give credit to the Chargers defense. They made the adjustments to put pressure on him. On the Pat's defense though, I have to admit that the injuries have finally took their toll on this side of the ball. I don't think my team wouldn't be doing as well with even Rodney Harrison playing against his former team.

oh i credit the Chargers D. I don't think they deserve ALL of the credit though...part of it is due to the losses the Pats have taken on the O-Line too though and the two rookies on the left of the line (Mankins and Kaczuer). But the Chargers D has done what they had to do and the Pats couldn't adjust.

[jeff061]

Yeah, but their defensive line should be playing better, they are getting stood up on every play. If their line payed like it did the first three weeks they could compensate for the injuries.

[TazFTW]

C'mon Seagulls. Don't let the Redskins go to 3-0.

[Logan]

Leave it to Mike Martz to try a gimmick play from - what? - the 15 yard line after a long drive.

[Joe]

announcers are dumb. the weather getting cold in tampa favors the Lions huh? The same Lions that play in a dome?

[Antmeister]

I disagree, the Chargers have a very suspect pass defense and that could easily be seen in any game the Chargers played this season. In fact the Pats had a good first half as Brady was picking them apart. With thier half time adjustments they brought in more people in the pass rush.

[TazFTW]

Seagulls tie the game up with 1:23 to go.

[sabotai]

Hmmm... Eli is looking good today.. the Giants may for real.
The Giant's offense, definately. Their defense is kind of shaky though.

[sabotai]

Seagulls tie the game up with 1:23 to go.
Hehe. Funny to see a game under the 2 minute warning in the 4th when the Giants game just finished the 3rd quarter. :)

[DeToxRox]

Did Mooch forget Shawn Bryson isn't any good?

[DaddyTorgo]

I disagree, the Chargers have a very suspect pass defense and that could easily be seen in any game the Chargers played this season. In fact the Pats had a good first half as Brady was picking them apart. With thier half time adjustments they brought in more people in the pass rush.
so what you're really saying is you agree. i'm saying that the Chargers bringing more has upset the Pats O-Line and they havn't been able to compensate or find ways to take advantage of the blitz (screens, draws, etc.).

[INDalltheway]

31-10 Colts over the Titans... Whooohooo!

[henry296]

And now interception for Seattle. Wide pass by Brunnell off Portis' fingers.

[TazFTW]

YES! Brunell throws an interception, Seattle has the ball at the WAS 33.

[henry296]

Seattle off the upright to win the game.. we have overtime.

[TazFTW]

Josh Brown, you suck.

[INDalltheway]

Sweet... Hopefully Hasselback can get me some more fantasy points... :D

[Joe]

and Harrington throws it behind Charles Rogers. Why am I not surprised.

[HomerJSimpson]

and Harrington throws it behind Charles Rogers. Why am I not surprised.


Harrington just can't throw an out, can he?

[DeToxRox]

Lions driving. 29 seconds left, two TO.

[DeToxRox]

1st and 10 from the 21. 30 seconds left, 1 TO.

[Antmeister]

so what you're really saying is you agree. i'm saying that the Chargers bringing more has upset the Pats O-Line and they havn't been able to compensate or find ways to take advantage of the blitz (screens, draws, etc.).

I just disagreed with the comment that they shouldn't get ALL the credit. They should. The Pats tried to stop the blitz but there is only so much you could do with the Chargers speedy linebackers. What I am saying is that the Chargers should get all the credit they deserve for stopping that offense. Brady tried to hit what he thought what should have been an open space due to the rush but the Chargers successfully disguised thier pass coverage.

[DeToxRox]

Fall start for the Lions. 1st and 15 from the 26.

[DeToxRox]

Amazing grab by Williams to the 12 or so. 20 seconds left, no TO.

[General Mike]

Why is there so much time left in this Giants game?

[HomerJSimpson]

How in the heck did they say Williams wasn't out of bounds after the catch? The first thing to hit the ground was his arm way out.

[Joe]

ooh td loins

[DeToxRox]

!!!!!!!!!!!!!! TD POLLARD! AMAZING CATCH! .. Reviewed I am sure tho

[Joe]

the angle on that TD was horrible, I wasnt sure if he was in

[DeToxRox]

This is one of the closest things I've seen. It was called a TD though so this is so close I can't see them overturning it.

[Joe]

points off the board= lions fans :(

[DeToxRox]

I am not sure if there was enough there to overturn it but this is the Lions..

[HomerJSimpson]

TD recall. Poor Lions.

[cuervo72]

WAS/SEA:

1. Holmgren is an idiot, with :49 seconds you have to at least TRY to get a couple of yards to have less than a 47 yarder, right?

2. The color guy is an absolute moron. One second on the clock, and he announces that the kicker "is coming out now". No freaking kidding there ass, you think? Or would you suggest Seattle try to run that .3 of a second play before kicking?

[DeToxRox]

welp this is it. 6 seconds left, no TO from the 12

[ISiddiqui]

Mike Williams should have curled his feet in... know where the line in Williams!

[DeToxRox]

And so goes another game for the Lions.

[hoopsguy]

Was watching the Lions/Bucs game and the cable went out while reviewing the Pollard TD - skies have just opened up and it is pouring in Chicago. So after investing a good part of 3 hours into this game I'm relying on the FOFC commentary to bring this one home for me.

[Easy Mac]

That last pass was Harrington's fault, but Williams really should have got his feet in the play before. That one was a perfect pass by Harrington.

[ISiddiqui]

Redskins win!

[henry296]

Skins win in OT... Seahawks never get the ball.

[sabotai]

Why is there so much time left in this Giants game?
Lots of scoring. Lots of penalties.

[Honolulu_Blue]

Tough break for the Lions. At least Joey rallied them there at the end...

[Joe]

Skins 3-0 and Bengals 4-0? This is some kind of alternate universe like in back to the future 2. :(

[sabotai]

*sigh*.....I'll be losing the Giants game in a few minutes.....fucking NFL TV rules....

[cmp]

Lions got screwed.

[timmynausea]

Skins 3-0 and Bengals 4-0? This is some kind of alternate universe like in back to the future 2. :(

Plus Biff is making a fortune betting on these games cause he has that almanac.

[Masked]

Lions got screwed.
I thought his knee was clearly touching the line when he made the catch.

[Dutch]

The Bucs prevent defense is horrible. They could easily be 2-2 because of that crap. But damn, I would never have imagined this team would start off 4-0.

[TazFTW]

Um, I'm looking at the NFL.com's game cast and it just said that Chad Pennington attempted a pass.

In fact so does ESPN.

Pennington is playing???

[Cringer]

Wow. With the Imperial Bowl III today, and then working out, I didn't flip through games much and just plain missed some football.

I wish I had watched a lot more of that San Diego-NE game, I can't believe the final score there. I am also pretty disappointed in Jacksonville's loss, I thought they would win that game.

[TazFTW]

Okay, NFL.com has now changed it to Bollinger. ESPN has both Pennington and Bollinger.

[Joe]

Um, I'm looking at the NFL.com's game cast and it just said that Chad Pennington attempted a pass.

In fact so does ESPN.

Pennington is playing???


yahoo just says bollinger

[TazFTW]

Holmes for the TD, KC up 7-0.

[TazFTW]

Ugh, 2nd play for Oakland and they complete a 79 yard pass to Moss.

[timmynausea]

Does Brandon Stokley still play? He's on my fantasy team and he hasn't done much.

[TazFTW]

Ha ha, Oakland only gets a FG.

[sabotai]

("Watching" the rest of the Giants game on NFL.com).......if the Giants blow this game.....

[TazFTW]

Vick is running over the Vikes.

[HomerJSimpson]

Vick is running over the Vikes.


He is just playing with them so far.

[ISiddiqui]

Yeah, it was almost looked like he was jogging on the second huge run. For whatever reason the Vikings are REALLY bad at stopping Vick from running.

[TroyF]

Denver D continued to dominate the game. Jags had 12 yards rushing today. (on 11 carries) Defense forced four turnovers in addition to that. Big win for Denver there.

Michael Vick was sensational on the opening drive for the Falcons. 47 yards rushing, a third down completion and a TD completion. Nice start for them.

[Cringer]

Vick is running over the Vikes.

If Vick actually ran over someone, he would probably crumble. Running past them would be more accurate I think. Or around them. Anything but over......

;)

[HomerJSimpson]

If Vick actually ran over someone, he would probably crumble. Running past them would be more accurate I think. Or around them. Anything but over......

;)


He vaults over.

[Joe]

yay the vikings finally tackled vick

[Cringer]

He vaults over.

There you go, he is like a supercharged version of GB FB William Henderson. Not sure how many people watch him, but he will ALWAYS leap over guys because they always try to just dive in front of him instead of trying to wrap him up.

I love watching guys leap over tacklers.....

[HomerJSimpson]

That was fun run by Dunn. He does know he doesn't have to dribble, right?

[ISiddiqui]

Jeez... Dunn fumbles the ball and STILL gets the 1st down.

[ISiddiqui]

TD Falcons... 14-0 now.

[timmynausea]

Vick is hurt.

[miami_fan]

Vick is DOWN!

[Joe]

that looked bad

[TazFTW]

Anyone watching the Cowboys/Raiders game? Is Julius Jones injured? Watching the pbp on NFL.com and Tyson Thompson had 5 rushes and Marion Barber had another 1.

[Joe]

Anyone watching the Cowboys/Raiders game? Is Julius Jones injured? Watching the pbp on NFL.com and Tyson Thompson had 5 rushes and Marion Barber had another 1.

jones just had a carry according to yahoo

[ISiddiqui]

Vick out? No matter... Dunn will do what needs to be done... 21-0 Falcons.

[jeff061]

Yeah, what's going on with Vick? How bad did it look?

[ISiddiqui]

Yeah, what's going on with Vick? How bad did it look?From replay it didn't look that bad, but who knows what it is.

[miami_fan]

Yeah, what's going on with Vick? How bad did it look?

It looked like a DL fell on top of him, trapping Vivk's right leg between the defender and Vick's left leg. He seems to be walking on it pretty well now though

[miami_fan]

So does Mike Tice get fired at halftime? The Vikings look horrible

[ISiddiqui]

So does Mike Tice get fired at halftime? The Vikings look horribleTake a page out of Tice's book... have some Vikings fan from the stands come down and coach ;).

[CHEMICAL SOLDIER]

From replay it didn't look that bad, but who knows what it is.
What happened to him?

[ISiddiqui]

Schaub with some legs!

42 yards on 2 carries!

[henry296]

Jets recover a fumble and return it to the 1, but settle for a FG. 6-3 Ravens. I would have given a long thought to going for it. I am not sure they make it back inside the red zone again.

[timmynausea]

It's a good thing the Vikings got rid of Moss, eh?

[ISiddiqui]

Falcons 24
Vikings 0

at the half

[MJ4H]

Eagles just scored to make it 24-13 Kansas City late 2nd quarter.

[miami_fan]

It's a good thing the Vikings got rid of Moss, eh?

Of course they are now Daunte's team and they no longer have to worry about that distraction and....and..... oh yeah the receivers that they have left collectively have made up for the loss of Moss :rolleyes:


Did I miss one? :D

[ISiddiqui]

KC is looking pretty good this week. Even if they end up losing, a far sight better than last week.

[miami_fan]

I did not think I would say it this season! THE DOLPHINS ARE FIRST IN AFC EAST!

[Dutch]

KC is looking pretty good this week. Even if they end up losing, a far sight better than last week.

I don't think they could look worse than last week. :)

[Cringer]

Of course they are now Daunte's team and they no longer have to worry about that distraction and....and..... oh yeah the receivers that they have left collectively have made up for the loss of Moss :rolleyes:


Did I miss one? :D

And the money they saved allowed them to greatly improve their defense by signing many new starters.

[timmynausea]

And the money they saved allowed them to greatly improve their defense by signing many new starters.

Plus Moss may have been the only thing holding them back from the #1 pick.

[ISiddiqui]

I don't think they could look worse than last week. :)Touche ;).

[Chubby]

Iggles tie it up :)

[miami_fan]

All right Fox, you can switch to the DAL-OAK game any minute now

[RGunner]

amazing touchdown by Crayton for Dallas, Charles Woodson is a complete idiot there. The Raiders can't tackle for the life of them

[RendeR]

Gotta say, its a great season thus far for bengaldom....WHO DEY!

4-0 for the first time since 1988 when they went to the Super Bowl. Gotta be a good omen. If nothing else with the way this team tends to FINISH seasons we're looking at a solid playoff run.

THe Bills (my wife Terlle's team) looked utterly horrible against a very weak Saints squad. The Bills defense is just weak right now. *I* could run on them and I'm slower than dirt on a hot steamy day.

Eagles are looking shitty early but suddenly coming back. I think they're getting into the Chiefs heads. Suddenly the Chiefs can't stop anything.

Have to say I'm not surprised at the Pats fans booing, fits right into the image I gained of them after living there for 4 years. I am surprised at just how badly they got spanked by San Diego though, go Chargers.

Not sure if I'm going to bother watching the late game tonight, talk about a yawner. Who makes up the TV schedules anyway? Someone thought last year or even during the offseason that San Fran/Arizona was worthy of PRIME TIME???? Give me a frickin break.

anyway, wanted to get my nickel in, GO BENGALS! WHO DEY!

[Chubby]

Eagles take the lead 27-24, Dante fumbles the kickoff and Eagles recover :D

The only reason it is in Primetime is because the game is in Mexico City.

[Solecismic]

Vick is sitting out the rest of the rout with a sprained MCL. I wonder if there's going to an anxiously awaited MRI tomorrow? That's truly scary.

[RendeR]

The only reason it is in Primetime is because the game is in Mexico City.

good point. Still, they couldn't send say Washington/seattle there? I'd at least watch that game.

[miami_fan]

The only reason it is in Primetime is because the game is in Mexico City.

But why these two teams? I am guessing these are the only two teams who were willing to give up the gate for this one. Hell they might actually make a profit

[Chubby]

it is an arizona home game I believe, they will obviously make way more money playing in mexico than in arizona

[Chubby]

td Eagles! 34-24

[RendeR]

it is an arizona home game I believe, they will obviously make way more money playing in mexico than in arizona


Whatever happened to the retractable roof stadium thing? Are the Cardinals actually getting a brand new stadium in a city that is of questionable support ability for the team? Honestly, I think the Cards ought to move to LA, at least they can fill a stadium, even if they suck. Look at how well the LA faiders did when they were down there.

Whatever happened to the retractable roof stadium thing? Are the Cardinals actually getting a brand new stadium in a city that is of questionable support ability for the team?

uhh, LA can't fill a stadium for the NFL either

Why is Culpepper still in the game?

The Bengals have been committing too many penalties, but I can't complain. 4-0 and The Jungle is back.

BWAhahahahaha the Cowgirls lose to the RAIDERS?


TheTuna should be ashamed.

The game is in Mexico City because Arizona will make more money there. San Fran probably gets a cut as well I think, and the NFL can claim it's expanding it's horizons.

Yeah, the stadium opens next year I think. I have no idea why anyone would build that stadium seeing home little support they have. Crazy move.

How 'Bout That NFC NORTH!??!?!?

This is the thing that scares me. They make WAY too many penalties, and today it took a ton of points off the board. Somewhere along the line a team is going to make us pay for those mistakes. I hope Marvin corrects this situation ASAP.

How quickly the mighty have fallen. I gotta feel for the Lions though, I think they got robbed and honestly, I've never seen a team with luck this bad in my life. yes even *I* as a Bengals fan have never seen luck this horrendous.

Detroit, you have my sympathies. Don't quit on Joey though, He's showing some signs of life.

Oh come on now Ducky, you have to admit the obvious.

The Raiders have a one dimensional Offense, Moss, period. Anything else they do lives off the defense's reaction to what Moss is doing.

THe Raider Defense is, frankly, shit. *I* could run the ball on the Raiders.

Now combine those facts with the fact that Dallas is supposed to be solid on Defense and able to score more than twice a game with the talent they have on Offense and they really ought to bury their heads after this one.

I'm laughing , yes, because I've despised Dallas since I was a child, but even beyond my bias, the Cowboys SHOULD have won this game easily. They blew it.

Finally, the Raiders put one in the win column. I think they played pretty decent today, I just hope they can keep up the good work. Jordan looked impressive for the first time all season as well, which is nice.

that would require either team scoring. I'm not convinced either can do so very often.
