Never in a million years did I think I would be saying this... the Ravens FINALLY get an offense and now their defense wants to tank???? With Ray Lewis and Ed Reed on the roster??? Something is horribly wrong with this picture. This team was finally supposed to be complete, and now the once proud defense is inept.. Ravens fans can't win for nothing. The bye week is coming and they better fix it if they want to even sniff the playoffs, or else.
-The Ravens-Vikings games was one of the most exciting and heartbreaking games I've yet to witness. More than the 2006 playoff loss to Indy (I'm JUST getting over that one). The Ravens fought so hard, coming from a 17 point deficit, and still came up short. Great game to watch if you have no interest or if you are a Vikings fan. But for a Ravens fan.. that one hurt bad.
*extra point* I'm gonna windmill Steve Hauschka when I see him :)
- The Saints are peaking... and looking more and more like the NFC representative for the Super Bowl, as I predicted. They beat the breaks off a great Giants team that has beat the breaks off of opponents themselves. Will they be in Miami come February, or are they peaking too soon??? Hmmmmmm
- G-Men... you'll bounce back. You're too good a team not to.
- Once again, the Redskins let a winless team get a win, as we all expected. I actually feel sorry for Redskins fans... no, this isn't a misprint. I do. I would be beyond fed up with mediocrity on and off the field. Dan Snyder needs to bring in a consultant to show him how to run an NFL franchise.. and I don't mean to the ground, either. It's pathetic and although I'm not a fan of the team, I am a fan of football. And even I am disgusted. This pic says it all:
- There really needs to be a "running up the score" rule. Explain to me why the Pats are up 45-0 at the half, yet Tom Brady trots right back onto the field at the beginning of the 3rd qtr??!! Is Belicheck serious?! What if Tennessee started to take shots at Brady and not care about the consequences??? Stupid, at best.
-There is a reason why Titans head coach Jeff Fisher isn't starting Vince Young. Even with Kerry Collins struggling at QB, Fisher continues to put him in. Word is, that Fisher deems Young as a quitter, especially after the shenanigans that happened at the beginning of the 2008 season. If that's true, then I totally respect Fisher's decision. I'd rather go down with the guys that go to battle with me than the ones that will wave the white flag, any day.
- Unless you are a fan of the Steelers, Browns, Lions, Packers, Rams, Jaguars, Bucs or Panthers, no one else cared about your game. Hey, I'm just saying........
- I got fussed at because I don't talk about the Eagles enough on my blog. Well, here it is: You let the RAIDERS beat you!!!! Better yet, you let JaMarcus Russell look like an NFL quarterback. Shame on you, Philly.. shame on you.
*extra point* Why is the pigeon going down the field with the Raiders the highlight of the game??? No seriously...........
-The Bills-Jets game was one of the hardest games for me to watch. I don't think I ever wanted to pull my eyelashes out, EVER. But I wanted to when CBS left the NE Massacre and went to this game. Remember that song you learned in school, "The Song That Doesn't End"... that game reminded me of that song... it just wouldn't stop.
- Am I the only one that thought Jay Cutler was gonna cry in the locker room at the end of the Bears- Falcons game??
- All the way around, the Denver Broncos are as complete of a team as any.
They have an offense that moves the chains, a defense that is fearless and a special teams that is nothing short of awesome. Is Eddie Royal the 2009 Josh Cribbs/Donte Hall/Devin Hester of special teams??? We will find out as the season goes on.
- I think Orton should do a collabo song with Shaq. The title??
This is a good one. We were on the same page with this NFL week....if you want to call it the N.F.L. I'm still hung over from all the very bad football that was played by "professionals" this week.
And to think...all offseason Ravens fans cried out for a playmaking wide receiver...they still really didn't fill that need, but the offense is fine. What we should have been yelling for are some shutdown cornerbacks...
