- 3-0, it's just like last year, except no elite teams for them to face in the AFC. For now at least, they're the top team to beat in the NFL. If it weren't for Derek Anderson, Tyler Thigpen and Big Ben, I'd have said that Romo was the worst QB in week 3. Has Jason Pfannschmidt gone nuts, you ask? No, I'm just pointing out that Romo threw yet ANOTHER red zone interception and turned the ball over twice, fumbling deep inside his own territory. Miles Austin looked very good against Al Harris. Oh wait that's right, every big receiver looks good against Al Harris.
- At 2-1, we have number one 'b' in the power rankings. The defense completely devoured the Pittsburgh offense... looks like they've got a chip on their shoulder after that poor defensive showing in Dallas. Brian Westbrook's day to day status is extremely good news. Kevin Curtis makes the first step in his return this week as he begins practicing with the scout team. The Eagles hope to get him back after their week 7 bye. Jim Johnson is by far the best defensive co-ordinator in the league.
- With Vince Young, they're a 7-9 or 8-8 team, with Kerry Collins they could go 14-2. I don't see them relinquishing their 2 game lead in the division at all. The Titans are for real.
- Coming in at number five we have the Jay Cutler and Brandon Marshall show. Let's hope this show doesn't get cancelled, because Marshall is on pace to set records. The defense needs to get better, for one week, Reggie Bush doesn't look like a total bust at the running aspect of Runningback. Look at it this way, they're a missed call and a missed field goal away from being 1-2.
- The Champs are here to stay, they're not anywhere near capable of repeating, but it's nice for NY fans to know that while the Yankees suck their G-Men will be making the playoffs as the 6th Seed in the NFC.
- Three weeks in, it is time to crown the Bills the AFC East Champs, because no matter how bad they play the rest of the year, a 6-10 record would win this division... kinda like the AFC West last year. But mark my words, they're a 3rd or 4th seed.
- If Al Harris is gone for the season that's a huge hit to their defense. The game was over when Ryan Grant fumbled.
- They lost to a good home team, but they got cheated by 2 calls that created a 14 point swing for the Redskins. A missed call concerning the play clock and a missed call concerning pass interference.
9. San Diego Chargers:
- They are a missed call and a play on defense away from 3-0. They always start out bad, but they had a huge day offensively and their turnover happy defense got their mojo back. Antonio Cromartie now has 5 INTs in 2 career MNF Starts. L.T. is now 3rd all-time on the Rushing TD list with 117, behind Marcus Allen (123) and Emmitt Smith (164). It's funny how he's played half of the seasons they played though. On the bright side of things, they've only lost one game to the AFC and the other loss was to the NFC so that doesn't put them behind by much in the grand scheme of things.
- Big Ben probably went back to the Locker Room post-game and yelled at his O-Line for their awful job across the board. And if a QB ever were to have the right to let his big guys up front know how he feels, it's after he gets pressured on every pass play, gets knocked down 11 times, gets hit 21 times and sacked 9 times.
- If they can get their running game going they've got the best chance of anyone in the NFC South to win the division.
- They pulled out a huge clutch win against Indy, this not only saved their season, it might be the beginning of their ticket to the playoffs
- Their defense let them down at the very end.... are we really at the point where it's 1 and done for Indy?
- They know what it's like to be the Broncos.... in the sense that they'll gladly take a free game given to them by poor refereeing. Their season ends in 2 weeks if they don't win 1 of the next 2.
- Their Offensive Line is looking more and more like a liability in the passing game. Stick to what you're good at, lobbing the ball to Steve Smith, running the ball with Jonathan Stewart. If they can stick to that game plan they'll win the NFC South.
- They missed a great chance to beat an elite team.... not much is going for them right now... I think I smell 2007.
- They've gone in the complete other direction than anyone would've thought, rookie coach, rookie QB, aging defense.... a win against the steelers would make them 3-0 and 3-0 against the divsion.
- This might be their last week in the top 20, they looked awful against the Dolphins.
- Mike Martz has their offense rolling again........ oh wait that was against the Seahawks and Lions.
- They will have to play the perfect game to beat the Eagles next week at home. Fantasy Owners of the Eagles' Defense will want to play them over anyone... this could be a game where the bears turn the ball over 5 times.
- The Gus Frerotte experiment worked... for at least 1 week.
- NY Fans, fear not... Anyone who has their head in their hands can look up to the bright future of Brett Favre getting comfortable with the offense at or around week 6.
- Michael Vick, who? This team has one of the easiest schedules in the NFL, they've got as good a chance as anyone in the NFC South to win the division. We're finding out that it was the Quarterback, not Roddy White and Michael Jenkins, who were the problem. Matt Ryan is a fixture there for the next 10-12 years.
- I have a tryout scheduled for this Friday @ 3:15 to play their Flanker position at Wide Receiver... that's how desperate they are... It's only week 3, but it looks like they'll be picking in the top 10. Congratulations Percy Harvin, you're going to be drafted by this team.
- They beat the Pats 35-13... the Miami Dolphins scored 3 points... the only things separating them from the Browns of Cleveland are a win and about 500+ miles
26. Oakland Raiders:
- The Raiders lost last second to a team that is probably going deep into the playoffs.. in the mind of a Raiders fan, that is like winning a playoff game. Why? Because when they actually win a game, it's like winning the super bowl for them.
- It's beginning to look like last year was indeed a fluke. If you look on the bright side, they've only lost to the 2 teams that will be in the top 4 seeds in the playoffs this January, in the Steelers and Titans.
- If we take the positive side of things, the teams they've lost to, are a combined 7-1.
- They've improved a lot on Offense, and with a young defense, they're a rebuilding project on their Defensive and Offensive lines, away from being a good, solid team again.
- This might just be the worst Lions team I've seen in a long time... yes worse than 2006.
- Operation Tyler Thigpen was a disaster... I think that might be the worst stats of a Quarterback in his first start.... 1/11 for -1 yards, OUCH!
- This is one of the last few times they will be the St. Louis Rams. There's a good chance that they'll change ownership by the end of the season... Just picture 2010 opening day when they are once again the Los Angeles Rams.... or for that matter they could upgrade the name of the team... It's going to work for the Oklahoma City Thunder... at least have a smashing awesome team name while your team sucks... they won't be moving from this spot all year.. because they won't win a game this year.
