Houston in a minor upset.
Philadelphia defense does what Detroit couldn't in Week 1. Stop Brees.
Jacksonville squeaks by Arizona in a game that could really go either way.
Kansas City almost took it to Baltimore in Week 1, will go all the way against Oakland.
Green Bay with home field advantage over a cursed Cincinnati team.
Minnesota, because Detroit is still Detroit even with a hot shit qb.
Washington was a mess at the Meadowlands, but should easily whoop on St. Louis.
New York Jets take advantage of the weakness in the New England defense that Buffalo could not.
Atlanta spots Carolina 14 and still wins big.
Buffalo will either make this no-huddle thing work or they won't, but Tampa will be a good test.
San Francisco surprised in Week 1, and will squeak by again over Seattle.
San Diego plays poor one week, plays awesome the next. Sorry, Baltimore.
Pittsburgh should prevail over Chicago, even w/o Polumalu to pick Cutler 3 times.
Denver, despite many problems, has fewer problems than Cleveland.
New York Giants over Dallas in a game that's really a toss-up. I credit the NYG defense.
Indianapolis will beat Miami, but I don't think Miami will play as poor as they did in Week 1.

Apparently, no-one has faith in my Dolphins.

(Neither do I, actually.)

ehh that's not the kind of game the colts have historically lost

I have some faith in them but not against the Colts in Indy.

I think they're way better than they showed on Sunday though.

Oh, it isn't in Indy. But still.

welcome to the ilnfl team, iatee.

based on this past weekend i really like the jets against new england. i hope that vegas gives the jets points because it's new england. that would be real tempting.

did u see the jets game?

yeah it was like the bizarro jets. their d was all kinds of busy and effective. the pats were clearly not up to speed on offence and i don't think that will turn around in a week. did you notice how brady didn't even try to air it out once? he loved to pass deep to moss even against double coverage in 07. i know we've only seen them for one game, but i think this jets d will be able to take advantage of that kind of hesitancy and any off-timing. on the other side of the ball, sanchez had the confidence and presence of someone who's already played a few seasons. i thought the bills did a poor job of capitalizing on what the patriots were giving them underneath until they started getting passes to jackson. i think washington could kill the pats if the jets watch that tape.

i think sanchez is gonna be good but i expect a pretty different defensive gameplan this week. vs. the bills everything was geared to shutting down evans and t.o.--don't need to do that w/the jets their best offensive players are their backs imo.

loss of mayo for six weeks is concerning tho.

hmm that is a good point, new england totally killed the deep option for buffalo and the jets don't have anything like the same threat. without a decent mlb healthy i wonder if teams will try to pound it through the middle against the pats. i don't think the jets have the personnel for that. thomas jones was woeful. he got all of his yards on two carries where the texans fell to pieces, but the rest of the time he barely got a yard and a half.

he got all of his yards on two carries where the texans fell to pieces, but the rest of the time he barely got a yard and a half.

NY GIANTS @ DALLAS This one feels like the biggest tossup of the week; I think a lot rests on the receiving corps for both teams. Gonna be a homer and GO Giants
INDIANAPOLIS @ MIAMI Indy, duh.

cf Sanders, Barry; Peterson, Adrian; all NFL running backs ever

first of all, jones's mom could have made big runs against the texans on those two downs. second of all, that's just bs. if you really expect that your running back will only ever get anything at all on 2 carries out of 28 you would never give him the ball. you gotta have some of those 3-4 yarders to chew up the 10.

san diego/baltimore is a v. compelling matchup for week 2

i am into Saints/Iggles, Boys/Gi'nts, Ravens/Bolts, Jets/Pats and the schadenfreude special Pitt/Bears

Baltimore D vs. San Diego's depleted offensive line is going to be the newest film in the Saw franchise.

if you really expect that your running back will only ever get anything at all on 2 carries out of 28 you would never give him the ball. you gotta have some of those 3-4 yarders to chew up the 10

Leroy "you need two yards? i'll get you three yards; you need four yards? i'll get you three yards" Hoard is a more valuable running back than Barry Sanders, QED.

Thomas Jones isn't anyone's second coming but when they're stacking the box and daring your rookie qb to beat you, blaming the RB for getting stuffed is just o_0

yeah, there's no beating that infamous houston run d. my point is, if the jets gameplan on running it up the middle against anyone, they will fail. i think there was plenty of evidence to support that on sunday. what is your point?

seriously?

omg i have the nfl network now!

McKelvin's front lawn vandalized

could be worse. they shoot soccer players in columbia.

god buffalonians are totally disgusting sometimes. poor kid.

football is kind of bad for society, i think. :( /morbz

that makes me really sad.

yesterday if you'd told these fucknuts their team was going to play their hearts out, show more than anyone expected, and give New England all they could handle, they would called you an idiot and prepped you for the inevitable 34-6 drubbing.

the worst part is most of the fans (yes, i've been haunting buffalorumblings today) don't seem to actually know much about football except that you have to, you know, not accept mediocrity

funny when i heard about this i was like "oh figures probably impossible NOT to know where these dudes live up there" but apparently they have a history of being awesome to the players and giving them space and everything so this is def. fucked.

they used white paint to write the score and draw a giant cock, apparently. classy

man i cant remember the last thing i wanted 2 see pics of so badly

do hope ppl who did it get caught, punished etc

in fairness he should not have fumbled the ball.

The dudes who vandalized Leodis's lawn should be deported to Iran, but that was still an inexcusable fumble.

yeah, i mean it's a travesty of misplaced fandom and an utterly retarded example of the slow degradation of the meaning of personal freedom and expression and we are all slowly turning into manic animals but DID YOU SEE THAT PLAY?

Essentially the internet has allowed sociopaths to hide behind a mask of anonymity and in some cases has caused normal, well-adjusted people turn give in to their own sociopathic tendencies, and this has bled over into the real world. Respect, decorum, and basic decency have fallen away and been replaced with a single, vile mentality in which you don't need to show those aforementioned good qualities, because that would be weak. Having said that, that dipshit should have knelt in the endzone.

omar, what will Bill Plaschke say about this?

yes...maybe something in his next column....?

aww...

ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. -- Still a little upset over having his lawn vandalized, Buffalo Bills cornerback Leodis McKelvin is willing to forgive and forget.

Referring to Bills fans as being great, McKelvin said Wednesday he doesn't want anyone arrested for painting an obscenity and the game's score on the front lawn of his home shortly after a 25-24 season-opening loss at New England on Monday.

"It's just one little incident. I hope it doesn't happen any more," McKelvin said following practice. "I was mad, I was kind of like angry in a way, but I was laughing a little bit for what they put on there."

McKelvin is being partly blamed for the loss after his fumble set up the Patriots' winning drive. He discovered the vandalism shortly after returning home from the game.

HOUSTON @ TENNESSEE titans probably tho houston has things comin for it this year, i'm certain
NOLA @ PHILADELPHIA i'd say eagles but the mcnabb situation is scaring me. i'm completely 50/50 on this? i'll think more.

it's weird that the fans are vandalizing his lawn instead of vandalizing the defense's lawns being that they basically allowed the pats to get another touchdown 60 seconds later.

they should also just vandalize boston because their team got that catch call that went against the raiders. also hunt down ed hochules just because.

they might want to burn down toronto too so toronto doesn't steal their team of guys who are too dumb to kneel in the end zone.

someone posted an article on last week's thread that explained the difference between the two catch calls, ie the ball moving/not moving.

^^^ this post isn't very funny

it is a problem i am trying to address

schef i do hate to break it to u but the catches were not the same.

wtf according to anyone i know and my tivo that article on what the refs line was isn't really that accurate but WHO CARES because the raiders beat the super chargers because lolz the chargers are just not very good. so it didn't change fortunes at all in the game since the chargers are just too shitty to take advantage of a ghetto ass call. go back to making fun of people from buffalo already, ladies!

i like those comments by mckelvin, basically to the effect that, whatever the situation, you have to laugh at a drawing of a giant cock

i mean if you think that they should not vandalize boston, the defense, or toronto you are not an american basically, no matter what rationale you get behind on the topic.

HOUSTON @ TENNESSEE titans
NOLA @ PHILADELPHIA saints
ARIZONA @ JACKSONVILLE jags
OAKLAND @ KANSAS CITY raiders
CINCINATTI @ GREEN BAY packers
MINNESOTA @ DETROIT - The Lions will probably win a game this year, but not this week, go Vikings.
ST. LOUIS @ WASHINGTON - Redskins D is pretty good, that offense looked pretty poor, good thing they are playing the Rams. I'll take the Skins
NEW ENGLAND @ NY JETS - Last week is proof that whatever you see in preseason is about as reliable as grading a team on how they play in Madden 09. The bit I saw of the Jets on a few minutes of pre-football, they loooked horrible. NE lost a couple of these type games on the road last year, but I don't see it happening this week.
CAROLINA @ ATLANTA - Atlanta's D looked pretty impressive last week. I have to figure they are OK to pick.
TAMPA BAY @ BUFFALO - If the Bills show up, they should win this one, as the Bucs got rolled last week.
SEATTLE @ SAN FRANCISCO- With all that crazy stuff that went down, I just realized the Niners beat the Cards. I have no real idea on this game, so I will take the 49ers at home.
BALTIMORE @ SAN DIEGO- This is a tough one. SD didn't look to hot. I guess I will take the Ravens in an upset (of sorts).
PITTSBURGH @ CHICAGO - I'm pulling for the Bears, but I have to figure the Steelers should win. I hope I'm wrong.
CLEVELAND @ DENVER - Who knows? I guess take the Broncos at home.
NY GIANTS @ DALLAS - I'll take the Giants and I hope they destroy the Cowboys.
INDIANAPOLIS @ MIAMI - I'll take the Colts, especially if they get up 2 scores early. I'm not sure Miami can really play from behind.

HOUSTON @ TENNESSEE - Not sold on Houston. They still look like an 8-8 team. Titans
NOLA @ PHILADELPHIA - Might be the best game of the week. Philly
ARIZONA @ JACKSONVILLE - Zona was one of the worst teams to ever make it to the Super Bowl. Kurt better start drawing God again. Jags
OAKLAND @ KANSAS CITY - KC is a tire fire. Raiders
CINCINATTI @ GREEN BAY - I'm liking the Pack to take their division. Green Bay
MINNESOTA @ DETROIT - All Farve has to do is a passable Trent Dilfer imitation and let Purprle Jesus do the rest. Besides it's Detroit. Minni
ST. LOUIS @ WASHINGTON - Rams are another dumpster fire. As earlnash said, the Skins look downright schizo, but even with that mish-mash of an offense they should beat the Rams. Skins
NEW ENGLAND @ NY JETS - On a few downs the Pats O-line looked Pittsburgh shaky, but Sanchez is due for a crash so I'll go NE.
CAROLINA @ ATLANTA - Jake Delhomme is a turnover machine. Falcons
TAMPA BAY @ BUFFALO - Bills should have won the NE game, so Buffalo.
SEATTLE @ SAN FRANCISCO - I hope the Niners are for real. A complete WTF pick.
BALTIMORE @ SAN DIEGO - Ravens
PITTSBURGH @ CHICAGO - Pittsburgh
CLEVELAND @ DENVER - Browns I hope.
NY GIANTS @ DALLAS - Tony Romo and Jerry Jones must die. NY
INDIANAPOLIS @ MIAMI - No lolcat for you Miami. Colts.

In a segment from the Week One game between Philadelphia and Carolina, during which Panthers receiver Steve Smith was wearing a microphone, a bizarre exchange unfolded between Smith and quarterback Jake Delhomme, who coughed up five turnovers in a 38-10 drubbing.

Delhomme, whose confidence clearly is shattered, apologizes to Smith while the duo are sitting on the bench.

Says Smith: "I never really liked you as a quarterback. But as a person . . . I love you as a person."

LOLOLOLOLOL

real talk

They then kissed passionately. This reporter's heart was moved.

what the hell is carolina going to wear? more teal or whatever color that is?

Atl has some nice throwbacks but cankles picking Denver has earned him a SB.

SB = Super Bowl btw

ahhh sorry brownie, i thought of u when i made that pick - i wanted to pick the browns but i just find mangini so unlikeable, i wish him ill. forgive me my sweet ;_;

nah, it's the smart pick.

"I mean, you're not a very handsome guy, anyway"

surprise, NFL gives money to GOP. (lol @ photo selection for this article)
http://www.politico.com/news/stories/0909/27299.html

The San Diego Chargers blew away the rest of the field with $2,455,200 in total money contributed, with most of that coming from team owner Alex Spanos, who has given more than $2 million, almost all of it to Republicans.

The Houston Texans contributed the second-highest amount after San Diego, sending $615,256 of its $623,456 total to Republicans. Next came the Arizona Cardinals, who gave 75 percent of $337,096 to Republicans.

The St. Louis Rams were the NFL’s biggest donor to Democrats, contributing $230,050, 98 percent of the team’s total.

bad omen for Dems :(

lol @ them switching the photo! this is what it was
http://i36.tinypic.com/2uzc9qe.jpg

throwing money away again!

Yeah, I have hated the Spanos family for basically my entire life.

ST. LOUIS @ WASHINGTON

guys i am now GOING to this horrible crapfest WTF... if i weren't going there with some awesome people i really really like i might've turned down the free ticket. gonna have to tape the pats game i guess

my live NFL experience to date -> night game at fedex field, lost my temper and chewed out three drunk morons from college park who kept bumping into & spilling beer on us, left in the 3rd quarter because it was wind chill 15 below. what can beat that? let's see!

er, what i mean to say is, I LOVE FOOTBALL! HAIIIIIL TO THE REDSKIIIIINS!

have a blast! 99% sure i will never attend a live nfl game.

will probably not be 15 below fwiw

Weather should be perfect, too bad the football will be terrible.

i know. glad i still have a blackberry so i can check on other games/ILNFL.

man, maybe it'll be in a luxury box with tvs and everything. that would rule. (this is within the realm of possibility as parents of friend who invited me are lobbyi$t$ so if it's their tickets, i bet they don't hang out in the cheap seats with the folks)

rachel maddow did a segment on nfl $$$ which wraps up with making fun of super chargers disco song. no teletubbies video sadly
http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/22425001/vp/32921603#32921603

live nfl is always fun, nothing like the at home experience but always fun

Just treat it like I treat going to Pirate games, a good day out, ballpark food, beer, and friends, oh and every once in a while something interesting happens on the field. It's too bad the interesting is usually bad or hilariously WTF.

Jamal Williams out for season. Chargers really don't have anyone who can replace him at nose tackle. I think they're fucked.

In a way, that is true of most clubs that run the 3-4, as the NT is really key to that defense. If the guy isn't that good and doesn't need to be double teamed, the linebackers get covered much easier.

http://img242.imageshack.us/img242/1976/49898421.jpg

what happened to his head?

It weirds me out that he has long hair now.

seriously, he looks roided out

It's not roided out...I think Brees is going 70s. The dude just needs a Burt Reynolds mustache and he will be set for the probowl circa 74.

http://www.sportscardsusa.com/images/62513.jpg

This is a good line in Bill Simmons picks this week.

LIONS (+9.5) over Vikings
Has Brad Childress ever given an interview in which it didn't look like he should be staring through penitentiary glass holding a black phone?

i stand corrected: he's 'radshawed out.

sounds like no welker today. jets should put 4 guys on moss

stacked on top of each other like voltron

So I am at the fedex field a couple rows back from the field at the end zone. Sweet. They already played 'in the air tonight'

You should have brought a sign that says ILNFL suX0rs

give'm hell daria

I am strangely excited about this Kansas City / Oakland game I'm about to watch.

So weird watching from this POV. Skins going 3 and out - not so weird

I'm glad the Jags have poor sales this year so I don't have to watch them on tv every week. I get the Jets/Pats game instead!

speaking of the jags, do i remember seeing mark brunell playing in a preseason game for someone?

good start, iggs. sigh

TD EAGLES!! KEVIN KOLB!!!!

alert the scoreboard operators - game looks like there will b some scoring

the falcons throwbacks are so beautiful i could weep ;_;

jets got boned on that fumble call

dan dierdorf said, "in my heart i don't think leon washington fumbled that ball" lol

HaHAHa yeah that was great

i approve of this dierdorf + gumbel--so much less annoying than phil simms

wouldnt u just know that the pats have a welker imposter in reserve - some rookie from kent st - gonna be interesting 2 see how much attn the jets pay 2 him

Agreed. Simms almost made me want to stop watching football with the volume up.

Edelman - welker clone. What happened to Welker anyway? Saw he was questionable.. This game here is not very exciting but I did appreciate Trouble Funk over the PA during 1st q break

brees has all damn day to throw here

welker not playing

chris johnson already 2 tds 140 yds rushing/rec'g

Guys the RedZone channel is making my day. My options otherwise were going to be Rams-Redskins or going to the library to study, and instead I get to watch a channel haphazardly cutting between nine games. I just saw a rad blocked punt in ATL-CAR, I am happy for you Ade.

o shit ty C-L i forgot i get that channel!

now a rad blocked punt by the super cards!

And Chris Myers made the least enthusiastic call of it ever. He was all "Yeah, that got blocked...Antrel Rolle now...and he will run it in for a touchDOWN!"

it was weird tho rolle was gassed and running lengthwise across the field at 1/2 speed

So is Tony Gonzales the best tight end of all time? He just racks up TD's 30 years in to his career. Go Falcons!!

that was brady's first good throw of the game, 17 mins in.

"What happened to Welker anyway?"

Knowing the Pats, he probably was decapitated but will be listed as questionable for the rest of the season.

Bengals looked really good on their first drive, then on the second Palmer threw a strike to the Packers.

Cool punt return by the Bengals!!! AJ Hawk got back on the return to save the TD.

Palmer threw a strike to the Packers.

lol :(

oh huge fucking pick there, let's do something with it. anyone else watching the iggs?

i wish

I kind of wish Texans-Titans was not already a blowout because this will limit my opportunities to spend time with Gus Johnson today.

leon washington looks like he is going all the way every time he returns a kick. he is one of those guys that seems to be at full speed as soon as he starts running

oh great play there, wildcat w/ westbrook as QB, fakes handoff to jackson, takes it himself up the middle for 12

ok, the philadelphia wildcats

yay thomas jones!

ok gus johnson andre johnson call!

YESSSS huge bomb from Schaub to Johnson. This does not appear to be a game with tight secondary play so far.

FUCKING LOVE U brent celek

breaking: rams may score first points of season!!111

i feel like cbs tries to hide gus at the game that seems the blandest

lol announcer calls "touchdown VIKINGS" as the lions score

kevin kolb is kind of amazing!

10-0 Lions!!!!

F U Favrikings.

omg detroit!

Uh oh Texans-Titans update coming next...

Rams scored! Awww, good for them, poor little guys.

Bengals/Packers is settling into a pretty good game. Aaron Rogers is a pretty good QB. He is like the anti-Favre, as he seems very composed and controlled at the position.

"i feel like cbs tries to hide gus at the game that seems the blandest"
That must explain why Gus Johnson has done so many Bengals games over the past few years.

Shitty football right here, pretty much. Skins stopped em twice now..shit. Fade route. Damn. Boos @ the fedex

Bengals have shut down the Pack 3 and out 2 straight possessions.

Awww man what in the HELL Green Bay it is the freaking Bengals.

Never mind Charles Woodson I LOVE YOU

oh carson palmer-paws

yes, tony gonzalez is the greatest ever

falcons leading

so stoked i am giddy like a girl

btw jesus christ have you guys seen alge crumpler lately

alge plumpler

It is basically impossible for a color guy to talk about Grady Jackson without him being all "LOL he is fat".

Awww now he is comparing Favre-Shiancoe to Favre-Chmura of old. I can only hope this means Visanthe Shiancoe tries to get all freaky in a hottub with his babysitter in a few years.

xp oh man last week I was like "was Alge Crumpler always this fat?" I had not seen him play in like two or three years but it just seemed weird that you could have that much visible shaking arm fat and still be considered a skill player.

he's basically a guard now

fuck this edelman/welker person

guardin the buffet lmbo

fuckin patriots imo

oh jackson you idiot

From field level it's like.. Glad they're getting the second year receivers in the game but.. J Campbell decision making seems pretty slow.. And Moss just fumbled that away.. Ugh

What a crazy play, the Bengals hit on a 3rd & 34 on a screen, then the guy fumbles and somehow gets the ball back.

Then hit on a flea-flicker to Ochocinco. They have to have a 14 year old calling the plays.

fuck, classic eagles sequence there ;_;

WTF do the Chiefs fans now have red cheeseheads (I guess Arrowheads)?

sigh, 17-10 saints

Wow, Kansas City apparently thinks field goals are not really worth it.

srsly 75-80 percent of the crowd here has on Redskins jerseys. loyal fans.. terrible football. At least I get to watch the marching band here.

yes, tony gonzalez is the greatest ever

he's putting on a clinic today. one handed grabs galore. TD Roddy!

roddy white! gonzo!!!! RYAN!!!!!!!!!!! FUCK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

First half of pats-jets was ugly as sin

aw these falcons throwbacks make me feel like a kid again

Yeah, ever since I moved here it has continually impressed me just how devoted DC is to the Redskins. If the Redskins lose it is so sad here on Mondays.

http://www.sportsposterwarehouse.com/catImages/dsanders90si-1.jpg

:D!

it's a crime that they can only wear them twice a year

last year was pretty sad when they all thought they were going to the super bowl for a minute... then the inevitable let down.

favorite all-time falcon:

title of pic - Jessie Tuggle = loyalty

fuck how did the saints get the ball already?

http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3298/3485618379_8ece4d4224.jpg

Jeff Van Note is a good throwback Falcon. I think the dude played for 20 years for them.

Pats reporter in twitteronia notes that Moss is telling Edelman where to line up on half the plays XD

Skins moving the ball kinda..let's see if they actually can pick up a TD for once. Getting booed now!

eagles are gonna lose :(

Playcalling sucks. Seriously getting booed now.

jesse tuggle owned, yes. i think his kid is QBing for BC now

van note's a borderline HoFer imo

Steve Smith needs to give JaMarcus Russell a pep talk. Dude couldn't hit a barn door.

i think Van Note was announcing the games on radio before i left.

van note's still doing games on the radio, ya

u a falcons fan, moreno?

oh kolb. rip eagles

yeah, big falcons fan. you too i guess?

damn Tuggle's son's in college already! i met him one time at a my friend's brothers little league game. they were like 7 at the time. feelin old right now.

yeah! so nice to have company on here now~

argh turner, that was such a good drive too

yep. turner off to a slow start this season.

Is Brees going to throw for 5 td's every week?

i'm not too worried, we're playing a couple solid defenses in a row. he got shut down multiple times last year too - his big 200 yard games were against the likes of the lions and rams

Awww fuck as if I did not hate Rey Maualuga enough already now he is making Ryan Grant fumble.

SPEEEEEEEEED

Haha I love Gus Johnson and Chris Johnson.

I love that this team has a marching band playing go-go music in the stands here.. If only we had a better coach and owner..ppl are like ok, I'm giving up on them if they suck again .. But they never do. (Haha dude at end of the row just said if they lose today he's never going to another game EVER)

wtf n.e. just got two delay of game penalties in a row

mike peterson forces the fumble. dimitroff looking like a genius w/ tg and peterson signings.

oh god, it can't be overstated how much of an upgrade peterson is over brooking.

damn JAX getting killed

lambeau leap 85!

gb pass d is suspect

hahahaha ochocinco bought tickets and put bengals fans in the front row so he wouldn't get rejected

that is brilliant this man is brilliant

<3 <3 <3

ocho, i doff my cap

hahah omg really?

Yeah there was a whole fake move to the middle of the stands, and then he went right and found his Bengal fans.

I am filled with rage and yet also I cannot really hate on that.

WTF Matty Ice just went behind the back on a handoff.

that's awesome

fukin lost my internet stream. might be goin to the bar for the 4th.

pack fan got in on the hug and was flipping the bird with his free hand. cognitive dissonance, nfl style

jeez kurt warner is going nuts today

People are yelling at the redskins every time they call the same run play. God this is horrible right here.

Andre Johnson is RIDICULOUS.

warner's 24/26, jesus

also td turner woop woop

warner 24/26? o man

xpost

start anyone against jax pass defense apparently

they gonna suck this year

Jacksonville squeaks by Arizona in a game that could really go either way.

― Johnny Fever, Tuesday, September 15, 2009 2:49 PM (5 days ago)

LOL @ ME

me too dude no worries

gonna take a couple games to understand the depths of jax's badness

countdown to browns/broncos pregame and the endless showing of the drive and the fumble begins

texans run good playaction

Redskins 4th and 1 play is ALWAYS call time out, think about stuff for a while, do exactly what everyone expected.. Right? At least that thing worked.

brett favre is 23/27 today

Awww, the Lions aren't gonna win this one.

harvin seems like hes already the go 2 guy in minn

Hahahahaha man this game is so absurdly bad

Credit to Zorn for making a big crazy decision but sweeps are not usually the best 4th and 1 play.

yeah his theory of trusting their d seems aight tho

I am going to learn all about fair catch rules if I keep watching the Tennessee Titans, I think.

Holy shit Chiefs scored awww good for you Matt Cassel.

NEW ENGLAND @ NY JETS (probably a reach but i'm thinking the jets d could be p nasty this year)

guys how hard do i own? pretty hard

yeah u right

Aaron Rogers has gotten killed in the second half. Rogers won't make it through the season if he keeps getting hit like he has so far in the first two games. He got plastered a few times last week in the Bears game. The Packers don't seem to have much of a running game.

u know what else owns? not tom brady!!!!!!!!

High five!

loooool

why is leinart in the game for AZ? garbage time? warner injury?

Cedric Benson up to 130 yards rushing. Dude played OK last year for the Bengals. He used to look so slow when he played for the Bears. Not sure what is the difference, but the guy is definitely looking like a real back now.

I assume garbage time, but maybe the Cards saw Palmer and Sanchito having good days and Cassel pulling it out late and just felt bad for him.

leon washington is a thrill

bengals <-- ochocinco lambeau leaps 2x maybe? i just see an upset

^i too wld like to illuminate some oownage. tho of course they may still choke it

guys can leon washington's nickname be THE PROFESSIONAL from now on

i bet that is what rich eisen calls him

In a crowd of miserable and very quiet fans here.. Whose team won the game!

Haha watching the Raiders get ridiculous false start penalties always makes me smile.

wait michael strahan is a sitcom?!?

ugh siragusa

Texans and Titans just turned into a rumble.

do they still plop siragusa down at the back of the endzone?

is IN a sitcom. with famous acting coach carl weathers?!?

he was somewhere on the field; i couldn't tell, but the local marching band was giving him wtf looks as they walked behind him

Rex Ryan is awesome. "Fuck it, let's blitz with 7 guys!"

After the Falcons, the Jets are my new favorite team this year. ATL/NYJ Super Bowl plz!

T.O.!!!

rex ryan's goin pussy-tubing yall

http://www.newyorkjets.com/image_assets/8986/051909_mark_sanchez_gq_magazine_shoot.jpg

rex ryan has achieved the impossible: he made the jets likeable

Fuuuuuck why are the Packers going to lose to the Bengals on a day in which the Vikings and Raiders win.

Football I kind of hate you today except for Rex Ryan.

OMGGGGGG 3RD AND ONE DEEP TD

yeah i love rex ryan

this alex van pelt who is calling bills offensive plays is okay with me

MAYNHOLUP wow i juss feel bad fo jake delhomme
4 minutes ago from web

can't believe the bengals may have backed into an awesome RB in cedric benson of all people

YESSSSSSSS ONSIDE KICK

kevin lolb

kevin kolber

jets pass d pretty incredible today. good pressure and good coverage every time brady dropped back.

I even like Rex Ryan! I kind of don't mind Jets being good because those guys had to deal with Favre AND Mangini. Prob not gonna watch that game later though.

So does Eric Mangini have any outside running plays in the playbook? Does he know what a tight end is?

"In either case...the game is over."

THANK GOD. Between the Bengals, Dusty Baker and fried foods, I swear they are trying to kill off Cinci sports fans.

Awwww the end of GB-Cincinnati hurts me in my heart.

OMG BILLS

donte whitner just intercepted leftwich + returned it for a td

<3 <3 <3

thank god you're here

:D

That was really nice, too.

Kolb had 391 yds? The whole "multiple crippling interceptions" thing is an issue but still.

uh wow

i was not prepared for this

New England should be 0-2, which is kinda :-o

OMG

guys the bills just intercepted again

that seems like a wrong call, but i shan't complain

:(

omg we went for it on 3rd and one from our own 37

what happened to dick jauron

meant 4th and 1 obvs

ppl at fault for the patriots loss:

1: the o-line
2: the coaches
3: tom brady

jesus fuck

Oh well. Idk.. it's the start of the season and how they look now prob won't be how they look in 7 weeks or so. Brady still rusty or what? Read comments to the effect that he's not stepping into throws or something..

his timing is off but the line is doing him no favors. had to throw everything a split second earlier than he wanted. he looks AWFUL when he has to move which is bad news.

but hey jets can enjoy their super bowl in september.

omg leodis you have to intercept that

uh @ byron leftwich on that last series

maybe he hurt his hand

the ryan-brady shootout next week is gonna own*

*final score: 5-3

they're booing t.o. at ralph wilson

he really should have caught that

aww t.o.

i know :(

freddy jackson is a prince

andre reed is on the sideline!

u think i will get sick of talking to myself but i won't

oh shit

WAHT I didn't even see the ball come out!

:_;

ilx didn't let me post my message because it was a duplicate: :(

<3 frank gore! that guy is on at least one of my fantasy teams, i'm sure..

BREAKING: BROWNS STILL IN CONTENTION

BEER RUN HAS BEEN MADE

jamal lewis with 20 runs up the middle

browns game is a bag of zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.

What kind of a bizzaro world is it where Cedric Benson is good????

i guess green bay is going to be totally jekyll and hyde like last yr?

Would a just God allow a team like the Browns to exist? I put it to you, America.

Well they did allow them to move to Baltimore. That must mean something.

Cutler looked really killer on the game tying drive. The guy might be a choad, but he can throw a beautiful long pass.

t.o. is world's most talented decoy

right on cue!

aaaaaaand there's TO for 43 and the score

FG === NO GOOD! Woo!

super chargers just picked off joe the flacco

steelers-bears.. cutler's going to get the ball with 3+ min on the clock and a tie..

jeff reed will not be afc special teams player of this week

damn. well, if any team can trust their defense here, it's got to be pittsburgh

Jeff Reed definitely is showing the sadface.

that's the kicker? yeah. polamalu looks kind of distraught there

nice

It was hooking, but held through. It was looking dicey for a second there.

jesus jeff it's ok man...

lol @ that jeff reed sadface

damn, chicago. wait, how did the packers lose to the bungles again?!

super chargers-bmore pretty good game here

<3 <3 <3 t.o. hulking out in orchard park

mangini loses team, finds nearby buffet

Why is NBC showing The Office right now?

I've got Football Night here.

Uh guys I just got invited to a party next Friday in DC guest hosted by Terrell Owens. The Bills are playing at home against New Orleans next Sunday.

\o_O/

Oh man Ray Lewis just smoked Sproles to win the game.

rayyyyyy lewis. all right then.

GTFO what is TO doing in DC?

4th and 2 call was the lamest thing I've ever seen.

Ray Lewis completely unblocked on that play to pretty much end the game.

How does that happen?

ray lewis is a hero

norv turner?

The worst thing ever is "watching" your team lose on Gamecast.

4th and 2...

*wait*

*wait*

*wait*

*wait*

*processing*

:(

That is probably a start.

they ran the cute play on 3rd down--3 te's and an fb on a rollout pass. failed miserably, ravens easily predicted the playcalling sequence.

lol @ rodney harrison. "the first week i was there, i started hating the jets, and i don't even know why i hated the jets, i just started hating them! i'm hating them right now standing here with you!"

hahahha i was coming back to post that

rodney harrison as a commentator is awesome.

george w bush is at the cowboys home opener

yea you really owe it 2 ilx 2 attend and report back xp

kind of <3 jerry jones and his cocaine dream of an nfl stadium

I have gigantic exams coming up! Also I am guessing there is like at least a 40% chance of me being the only white dude at this place were I to show up.

lolll rodney singlehandedly makes football nite in usa watchable

it looks like the fox robot should be irl there in cowboys stadium

t/f cowboys stadium greatest achievement in human history

it might be if the goddamn cowboys didn't play there

cowboy stadium im gonna let u finish but...

guys this is insane right?

This place is like the douchebag palace of the world.

what if there's a cheat code to the entire stadium.. like.. one little spot on that video board where, if the kicker hits it, the entire thing falls down? game over!

i fear the oscar-bait jerry jones biopic in 2033

Cowboy stadium that is...

guys imagine what if this game were even better than the closing of the old stadium.

They buried the bones of those that died building it in the walls.

demarcus ware seems really nice

YEAH ELI

why did they build a new stadium with artificial turf wtf

field turf probably better than grass nowadays

ok, the browns are the worst football team in the world (maybe history)

got some sweet jazz tho by the beer run guy

this game tonight- every team that drives down the field and settles for a 3 points loses.

Did he say you could pay thirty bucks to hang around the parking lot?

Jones is the devil, I tell you.

First weekend with full-capacity stadium traffic on my end of town. Fuck this bullshit, I'm not leaving the house on game days.

wtf, player tunnel goes through a LOUNGE? did they build this stadium in Vegas?

Like I needed another reason to hate the Cowboys/stadium deal/Jones

awesome!

Oh nos...

http://www.fightforolddc.net/assets/tony%20romo%20crying_med.jpg

yeah!

last 2 minutes have been awesome

OH C'MON

"I thought Wade Phillips wouldn't have survived the plane ride home. I was sure that Jerry Jones would have had him thrown into the new shark pit at the stadium."

ooohhhh i like this game

lol @ sinorice moss nice hands

phil simms assertion that the field was not slippery because all the slipping was footwork related was some deep science today

bear down, chicago bears

Even if the teams are not very good, the NFC East rivalry games, which is pretty much the whole division are usually pretty fun to watch. (How the hell did the Cowboys stay in the east when they did the re-alignment?)

BEARS

BEARS

ugh playcalling

lawrence tines looks 2 me like he belongs in the new bruce willis movie

if I wanted to see field goals I would watch Raiders/Chiefs. CAHM OHN.

afaik, cowboys stayed in the east because it seemed like a terrible idea for NFL to break up the cowboys-redskins rivalry like that

Ouch...Crayton's head got popped off the ground pretty hard on that one.

why is this not a new fall sitcom on the nbc?
http://i33.tinypic.com/ftfywj.jpg

lol @ feagles w/the "guys wasn't that awesome??" reaction

xpost I see "o-line", I think "o-face". which makes me lol even harder.

"artworks" -- place looks like a frikkin MALL

so weird

that's a td yall

does he get the tdizzle? thats bs if not

wtf with the official who was staring right at it???

wtg you fucken blowjob

oh my god that INT

seriously dallas always brings the weird.

actually, the giants will get the ball but no td because of whistle

jobbed

officials fail

yeah. uh OK so if officials fail and dallas fails to notice what's going on in the game, football giants don't get the touchdown?

officials need to learn to let the play run if there's any weirdness.

well then

haha!

holy shit

Wow...what a catch. This might be Manningham becoming a star.

awesome

excellent catch

this game is nuts and awesome

i'm rooting for all the giants receivers bc cris collinsworth called them "not very talented"

hahah he was right tho--not a group with a lot of raw talent but they make up for it with gobs of good football sense.

lets hear it for the ham of manning. awes catch!

way to go, "untalented" receiver!

manningham may actually be talented btw

im glad they let al michaels sit down now

As a Raiders fan, sometimes I'm just happy to watch a game with good offense. Like, "so this is what it's like to move down the field. cool!"

j. russell 7 24 109 0 0

i am sorry for u vegemite grrrl

but we have defense now, so we got that going for us. which is nice. and jamarcus. ugh. dude waits 3 and a half quarters to actually start hitting his receivers? wtf dude. warm up. jesus.

he's a monster irl. when he walked out on the field for the first time last year, it was like watching godzilla walk into tokyo.

i may well be proven wrong on this but i just don't think jamarcus will ever be an nfl qb

word up on yr defense tho

Jamarcus... unstoppable beast in college ball... lumbering oaf as a pro.

awww...madden

xpost - the LSU dude on the Chiefs said JM used to have everyone over to his house to watch game film. It's like he sent his retarded twin brother into the NFL.

Sometimes a guy is a great college QB, as he has a talent set that works in that game like Vince Young, but a bunch of these guys look killer as they play on a club with a huge amount of talent like many of those Florida QBs.

also schemes in college on both sides of the ball are way simpler

Russell does have a big arm, but really you need someone who can complete passes, which is why dudes like Garcia and Pennington have jobs. You throw a heck of alot more outs and screens in the bigs than bombs.

niiiice. this manningham guy, who is he?

I think Tebow may be the first FL qb to come out in the draft and not be a complete bust. He can't play pro like he does college, but the guy has proven to be adaptable.

Yeah. I hope Tebow plays out, be good to see him stick.

I think 'crazy awes' in college gets gobbled up so quickly in the NFL...the toughness you need to grind out game after game against huge dudes is pretty backbreaking. I'm just not sure if, in Jamarcus' case, that accuracy is something you can teach. I get the feeling it's kind of innate. But you know, old Al likes a big arm, so a big arm we've got.

anyhoo. Go Giants!

Mario Manningham was a star WR at Michigan, but was way down on the NYG depth chart last year (I'm not sure he even got any game time).

Manningham was a pretty big star at Michigan, a Heismann canidate. Dude was a beast returning kicks with the Wolverines. He got busted with weed and his draft stock fell off.

I'm not sure Tim Tebow can be Big Ben Roffles, but I think they are kind of physically similar.

I looked it up, Manningham did get like 400 yards of receiving yards, so he played. I'd imagine he didn't play much until the gun in the club stuff.

if he's really 5'11 and 183 he's small to be a #1 wr but hard to argue with how he's playing atm

waht!

SHANK

facepalm

oh god

I really hate seeing Jerry Jones cheering. GIANTS PLZ CRUSH DEM COWBOYS. PLEASE.

this stadium makes each punt wayyy more exciting. IS IT GONNA HIT IT???

is the stadium producing a weird delayed reaction with crowd noise due to at least half the people watching the giant video board instead of the field?

haha holding

I love hearing that many cowboys fans suddenly fall SILENT

coaches-when call goes against u do not stand there with mouth open like a trout. u look like clueless overmatched dolt. looks at home on u tho wade.

slow mo "what the fuck was that" was pretty lol

newman scary fast on that tackle.

Hi guys.

YES

It did look like a punt play.

intercepted!!! wee!!

this is great

HAMMYMAN!!! hooray!

I heart this game

awesome

i like how manning and manningham have almost the same name it's like they're brothers

collinsworth reminds me of steve doocy

manning & manning ham. united by ham. a match made in heaven.

jodran sragent would like to let it be known that all three tony romo interceptions have been by ex-miami hurricanes

also he is coming back on the 27th

Someone missed an assignment. That guy was so open.

tell j0rdan to get back here already

lol xposts

xxp rad news on both fronts

Guys I was watching the Emmys for most of this but I wanted to say that the Cowboy Terrordome is pretty much terrifying in HD.

enough already with punting high to hit the jumbotron. they're all landing at the 40 which is FAIL. give it the boot, kick it high and LONG you dummiez

they're not trying to hit it they are just suckin at punting

hah I didn't think of that. So used to Lechler punts that I figure everyone can get it in for a touchback at the very least.

cheerleaders dancing on platforms around the stadium -> next level

hahaha i know! jj is insane

welcome to the terrordome

LOL @ cowboy terrordome

fyi punts that hit the board will just result in do-overs so no tactical reason to try.

sex slaves in the basement for sure

i really wish they'd show the full terrordome view more often instead of just the field

also where is the tour they promised...so far escalators and cheerleader dressing rooms
where is cowboy jail, chocolate sauna room and petting zoo

I wonder if the cage dancing B-team cheerleaders are ever allowed to stop or if they have to dance for the entire game, lest JJ get on the loudspeaker and start yelling "YOU WILL NEVER BE A REAL DALLAS COWBOY CHEERLEADER" and cackling maniacally.

it might take a whole season before i fully come to terms with what jerry jones has done here. somehow i think the next step is for texas to secede.

also b-team dancing cheerleaders get end of year playing cards instead of calendar. when you make it to the bigtime, THEN you get a calendar

I have been writing tiny notecards about medications used to affect the Autonomic Nervous System, so I apologize for writing trainwreck sentences today.

Aww poor Marion Barber, gettin all injured while running.

god damn how is dallas winning this

forget it jake, it's jerrytown

I am pretty sure if the Giants were steamrolling the Cowboys the Jerry Jones Lasertron 4000 would start firing at Eli Manning, so it's probably for the best.

hahah

lol! concealed snipers hidden under astroturf

I just hope that Eli gets off the proton torpedos to destroy the Death Star before this is done.

I'm pretty sure in that cutaway just now JJ was speaking German...

OK no that was too far, he is not Hitler.

after the game, eli should drop trou and expel a perfectly coiled turd onto the star

lol at tynes 53 yard field goal range. dude, you missed from 29!

i remember when eli sucked

http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_RwdH5DTKRas/SVmabTutXaI/AAAAAAAABQU/lbA-VpD8i7Q/s400/jerry+jones+eminent+domain+arlington.jpg

eli manning stone cold in 2 minute drill.

i fuckin hate this bullshit

That is still some chump shit.

this is ridiculous

I could watch the shot of Wade Phillips staring at the presnap with his mouth agape all day.

so wish he would missed 1st and then hit 2nd

Hahaha, icing the kicker never fucking works.

don't mess with the football gods wade phillips

eh the right team won

Since joining the Giants, Tynes and his family have lived in Clifton, New Jersey.[2] He and his wife, Amanda, continue to make their offseason home in the Kansas City area in Overland Park, where their boys were born last summer. “I’ll be there a week after the Super Bowl,” Tynes said. “I’ll live there the rest of my life. I just like the area. It’s nice. It’s cheap.”

guys i think maybe i love eli

also i love his wife

His other brother, Mark Tynes, is serving 27 years in federal prison on drug and witness intimidation charges stemming from his 2004 involvement in a plan to move 3600 pounds of marijuana between Texas and Florida. Lawrence Tynes has been involved in seeking a presidential pardon for his brother; Lawrence acknowledges his brother's guilt, but feels that the sentence was overly harsh.

oh sad

Hahaha Jerry Jones had an obstructed view of the field goal! He builds a stadium so large it is an affront to God and he still can't get that dude to get his head out of the way.

i really like eli. should hate on the dude forever based on a certain game that happened a couple seasons ago but i just can't. <3 eli

^^^yup pretty much

h8 his bro for all time tho

hahahah

major love for eli. ice cold. ICE cold.

also xxpost to CL...icing kicker only works if you are Shannahan and kicker is Janibrewski. ;_;

he is just such a doof it's amazing when he goes into o i'm gonna win this game in a minute mode

I assume Janikowski is susceptible because you probably have to work extra hard to get yourself ready when you're kicking with a bad hangover.

Eli is basically unfuckwithable to me because of the Super Bowl and because of the Michael Lewis article in the NYT Magazine that came out after his first year. Something about getting a Michael Lewis profile makes me love a dude (except for Bill Parcells). Like if the Giants got Michael Oher and then hired Mike Leach to coach I would consider leaving the Packers for the NYG.

http://i38.tinypic.com/2hhexpe.gif

the nyt has had some good articles abt eli, i think maybe there was a longer one that was in the magazine, you would not really expect it to turn out that he'd be a quarterback, much less successful in the NFL and win a certain game and so on. i just appreciate that it is a cool story even as i continue to root for the evil patriots machine

wanted to hate eli after the whole (archie-directed) refusal to play for san diego, but he has an . . . endearing blankness of personality, particularly for a title-winning qb in ny. some times, watching him, i wonder if he even enjoys football

The Ravens scored 33 points in defeating the Cowboys in the final game at Texas Stadium. The Giants scored 33 points in defeating the Cowboys in the first game at Cowboys Stadium.

33 + 33 = 66
66 + 6 = 666

Can we ban animated gifs from these threads?

I like em!

i was gonna say why would we want to do that?

Milo Crazy. The look on that ref's face had me laughing all morning.

They always fuck up Safari.

:(

I'm on safari and don't seem to have any gif issues?

back to that cutler gif, if that's the extent of his peripheral vision its no wonder he throws picks

he looks like he almost threw up on the ref

i thought he was drunk in that gif

I am convinced that's what he is saying! lol

haley is very profane/is a dickhead, i'd find it harder to believe that he WASNT saying it

Oh, I know Haley's a pottymouth. I just don't read his lips as saying "What the fuck" in that one gif. The "fuck" doesn't look quite right.

Really? To me it looks like he couldn't be saying anything else!

^^Agreed.

i gotta believe this season will be gold for haley gifs

gruden is SO HYPED

HAPPY BIRTHDAY WILDCAT!

if i have to watch that replay of the fins running over the pats last year again! enough already!

r u ready?

d'oh! hahahah

that is how it is done

my hope for this game is that joey porter sacks peyton manning and they somehow both end up on ir

i feel like if you score a td in the first five seconds of the game that should be the elusive "double touchdown"

also this is going to be a 40 - 34 game, isn't it?

I WONDER IF JON GRUDEN SENDS EMAIL IN ALL CAPS

I LOVE THE WILDCAT LOL HAPPY BDAY WILDCAT

i hope it's 40-34. the first 8 minutes of this game was more exciting than the entire redskins game. actually the first 8 seconds of this game was more exciting!

so this game is really weird because, it's like, they showed those colts receiver stats, right? and they are mirror images. this guy MUST be here. this guy MUST be here. they do the same five to ten plays, over and over. they are very OCD and meticulous. and the team they are playing is like, "WOULDN'T IT BE REALLY FUCKING WEIRD IF THE KICKER WAS THE DEFENSIVE END? WHAT THE FUCK WOULD THAT BE LIKE? OMG!"

also why do they keep calling peyton "the sheriff"??

i swear to god, watching the dolphins play is like watching a chinese fire drill.

i imagine every colts player thinking 'just stfu and run the play' after every huddle

"why are you huddling?!?! what the hell is this shit?! there are only ten plays!"

lol this is actually a fun game if u like football strategy

whenever peyton makes his pissy-face, I always think of that old Manning home movie they used to show, where Eli & Peyton are playing football in the backyard and Peyton's yelling THAT'S NOT HOW YOU'RE SUPPOSED TO PLAY IT! YOU'RE NOT ALLOWED TO DO THAT!! lol

Not watching it (once again, stumped by my daughter's third-grade math homework (feels like algebra!)), but would give up my right-arm for a Miami win.

lotta sad gamblers if miami wins

btw the new dolphins ownership seems brilliant

lol this is actually a fun game if u like football strategy

words that will never be spoken in cleveland ;_'

lollllll

i swear to god, watching the dolphins play is like watching a chinese fire drill.

LOL for real

HAT'S NOT HOW YOU'RE SUPPOSED TO PLAY IT! YOU'RE NOT ALLOWED TO DO THAT

ugh, hate peyton even more

SWEET fake

btw the new dolphins ownership seems brilliant

Evidence in favor: Williams Sisters become part-owners, brings in star power.

Evidence against: Jimmy Buffet becomes celebrity face of franchise, brings in parrotheads.

dolphins team strategery meeting: "who wants to take the snap?" brown: "I'll do it!!"

this actually happened! <3

i swear to god, watching the dolphins play is like watching a chinese fire drill.

i don't even totally know what this means but imo the dolphins do what every team in the nfl w/out elite talent should do--they try to outthink and outstrategize their opponents

And considering we were 1 -- 15 two years ago, I think the team is pretty remarkable.

I kind of heart the dolphins. good honest boyz. except bucketmouth Joey Porter but he's been okay lately so I'm okay.

jaws + chuckie wildcat FITE. zzz

tirico's anti-wildcat argument: it only got them 25% more yds/play then non-wildcat?

you're putting SOUND into FILLUMS? it'll never work.

I like the wildcat. but only when the dolphins do it b/c I like ronnie brown.

and cmon, more yards is more yards. 2% or 20%...it's...um...More. and if the object is to advance down the field, then we like more yards. right?

Peyton's yelling THAT'S NOT HOW YOU'RE SUPPOSED TO PLAY IT! YOU'RE NOT ALLOWED TO DO THAT!! lol

<3 <3 <3

this game is less exciting now, though

I thought teams would be all prepared for the Wildcat this year, 'cause it's no longer "new."

colts d just sucks actually
