NFL week X! DIVISIONAL DESTRUCTION!

Recommended Posts

Guest Vitamin X
What the hell is going on this week? Rams, Dolphins and Falcons are all winning, and Cleveland is ahead of Pittsburgh.

 

Cleveland is hardly a surprise.

At Pittsburgh, of course it's a surprise.

 

Its a surprise, but not that big of one.

 

The big surprise to me is Ryan Grant running over the Vikings while Peterson isn't doing much of anything.

 

Oh yeah. Green Bay being able to run the ball- Grant with 92 yards in the first half against the league's 2nd ranked run defense- is giving me entirely way too much hope for the season.

 

What this does mean though, is that they do look like a team that is getting much better as the season has gone on. It makes me wonder how much better they would have been (and how much more of a shot they would have at a championship) had they acquired Randy Moss instead of the Patriots.

 

EDIT: 100 yards! First one Minny's allowed all year.

I was wondering that too actually. If Brett Favre got his wish this would have been a team with a serious downfield threat that defenses would have had to gameplan around.

 

I still like their chances of going to the Super Bowl though. And at that point, it's one game, anything can happen. I'd really like to see Favre get another ring.

Well, the bet was on Jennings being one of those threats, and I think he's responded well. He's even had one of those Moss-like "jump over two defenders" catches earlier. But actually, I think their biggest offseason blunder was drafting Justin Harrell over Greg Olsen, since Bubba Franks has been pretty useless outside of blocking in the run game.

 

Also, the Browns beating up Pittsburgh today is like Detroit beating up Denver last week. In that, "Okay they look pretty good this year, but THAT good?" sense. Remember that Pittsburgh's only loss this year has come to Arizona.

Wisconsin, your cows and corpses are safe. 27-0~

 

Fucking FOX cuts away to a "more competitive matchup" between Philly and Washington. Yuck. Why not just take it to Miami-Buffalo?

Pittsburgh came all the way back and took the lead on Cleveland...then gave up a ridiculous 100-yard kickoff return for a TD. The returner let the ball hit the ground and roll all the way back to the goal line before picking it up and running with it.

I wish I'd got that game instead of Denver-KC. The Chiefs only looked like they had some life towards the end of the 3rd quarter, but it's been all Denver since then. I'm going back to Philly-Washington. Fuck, I hope the second games today are better.

Because CBS was broadcasting that game.

Griese is hurt, so Rex Grossman is back. Fumbles the snap on his first play. Rex's career in a nutshell, right there.

 

"Hey, come in and try not to fail."

Redskins continue their sloppy-ass second half play, and lose ANOTHER 4th-quarter lead. This team is better across the board then the 2006 squad, but they are showing that they are still not ready to compete with the big boys. A Playoff contender does not do these types of things over and over and over again. At least this is coming in a season where the NFC representative is surely to lose in the Superbowl.

Watching this Ravens team play football is quite the arduous task.

 

Edit: Graham looks as if he'll tie/break the FG record that Titans guy set just a few weeks ago.

 

Edit 2: I hate to echo Marvin here, but Baltimore really should pull the plug on McNair now. Just miserable.
