CIN @ BAL - I'd like to take the Bengals, but get real, the Ravens getting an offense is the scariest thing in football. MIN @ STL - Short week playing a chump team is a total trap game situation, but the Rams have not shown anything and the Vikings look pretty sharp. Minnesota it is.TB @ PHI- Unless Philly turns the ball over left and right or the Bucs D completely figures it out this week, I just don't see how Tampa is going to keep up with the Eagles, especially if they get up 2 scores.WAS @ CAR- Completely fugly game and the winner is going to have a winning record, giving some 'playoff' hope. It could go either way, but I would think Panthers at home.PIT @ DET- Detroit will win again, but I don't think it will be this week.OAK @ NYG- Giants biggest problem is going to stay healthy all year, they should win this one easy. DAL @ KC- Haven't seen KC but I have a feeling they are improved, but I would think Dallas should win this one.CLE @ BUF- I got to hand it to the Browns, this was a good trade in the long run. They get rid of one of the players that seems to embarass the club every week and got two players with a 3rd and 5th round pick. That's a decent haul and they dumped off some salary to boot. They also played pretty hard last week. Cheer up Cleveland maybe the bottom has been reached. I don't know the Bills, but I will take the Browns in a STRETCH upset.ATL @ SF- This is a big game, potentially a division championship later on decided here. It seems kind of like a pickem, as I am not yet a believer in the Falcons on a tough road game, so I'll go 49ers.HOU @ ARI- These are pretty much the same kind of club, as they have solid talent on both sides of the ball, can get some yards on offense and are terribly inconsistent. Might be a decent game to watch-- don't really have a clue who to take, so I will go with the slightly more known Cardinals, but it could end up either way.JAC @ SEA- Jville has gotten clocked and yet came back a bit. Seattle's D looked terrible last week. This is a total pickem game, but I guess Seahawks at home being the difference.NE @ DEN- I keep picking against Denver and they keep fXXking me, so I will take NE and watch the Broncos get me again. IND @ TEN- I have to think the odds of the Titans starting 0-5 were pretty slight back in August. I'm going Colts as I usually do, but I don't really feel confident on it this week.NYJ @ MIA- I have to think that the Dolphins won't be able to run on the Jets. On the other hand, I'd say defensive coordinators have a month of real work to know how to sucker Sanchez into looking stupid. This will probably be a 16-13 type game and whoever gets a big punt return or turnover probably being the winner. Even with Henne, I'm going to take the Dolphins as they are at home. This is another hard game to call.

― all yoga attacks are fire based (rogermexico.), Tuesday, 13 October 2009 04:37 (fifteen years ago)

Seems to me that's talent and arm-strength, not just working conservatively within a system.
― Daniel, Esq., Tuesday, 13 October 2009 04:41 (fifteen years ago)
imho seeing what the defense is giving you and taking advantage of it to the tune of a 139 rating goes beyond "playing conservatively within a system," it's awfully early to crown his ass.
he didn't will this team to victory - he got a lot of help from stout blocking and a run game that kept him from feeling too much heat from a Jets front seven that has done a pretty good job of getting two hands on the QB through the first four games.
it's VERY worth noting that the Jets often lined up on D with only 3 DBs. that's how seriously they took the run game and how willing they were to gamble against an untested Henne. He passed that test, so now he may see 4 DBs a little more often. we'll see what happens once NFL defensive coordinators have four games worth of film on him.
― all yoga attacks are fire based (rogermexico.), Tuesday, 13 October 2009 04:50 (fifteen years ago)
ahem, "BUT it's awfully early to crown his ass"
Did people here have a different impression of Henne, or are your comments directed primarily to the offense the Dolphins had before Henne became the starter?
i hadn't see much of henne before tonight but he did exactly what a qb facing no pressure should do--make most of his throws. nice strong arm for sure.
a lot of my suboptimal personnel comments are directed at their receivers actually.
― call all destroyer, Tuesday, 13 October 2009 04:53 (fifteen years ago)

jackie harvey peter king weighs in:
Factoid of the Week That May Interest Only MeIf Rush Limbaugh becomes part-owner of the St. Louis Rams -- which I'm told is not even close to happening right now -- he may want to do something about the organization's political leanings. According to politico.com, no NFL team in the past 20 years has donated more money to the Democratic Party than the Rams. Politico reported in September that the Rams had given $230,050 to the Democrats, or 98 percent of the franchise's total political donations. That would mean that in 20 years, the Rams have given about $4,600 to Republicans. That's not even enough for a 30-second spot on Limbaugh's national radio show.

Herschel Walker was a different kind of runner than Earl who was a total banger. He was more like Bo Jackson or Payton, the complete back with huge speed, power and moves. Walker is kind of an exhibit on it all matters where you play to how your career turns out. The guy totally had Hall of Fame talent, but his numbers were missing those first three years, he got to Dallas when they were old playing being Dorsett for a bit and heading for the ditch and then got traded for way too much. He didn't make the dumb trade, but he kind of took the fallout for it to an extent. Walker was also got a lot of guff for being the first guy to leave college early to go pro in football. He got slagged pretty hard by the media for doing something that is pretty common practice now.
Say he finishes his senior year at Georgia - he could have won a 2nd Heisman, say then getting drafted #1 by the Patriots. The Pats were pretty decent in the mid-80s and it might have changed all sorts of things.

Talked to my Bills buddy 2-day and we went over the Bills and why they never won the BOWL!! Lot's of Bruce Smith talk and Andre Reid and the fact that the K-Gun was based around tight end McKellan.
Him: the K-gun was centered around mKellanMe: I'm drunk
