That game last night was very close. The Jets defense showed up, and the kick-off return was timely for them.

But, we hung on for the win! We also lost Cushing for the season, which is F-ing huge!

And Green Bay next Sunday night. Two prime time games in a row!

Ugh.... Philly's Franken-oline is enough to kill fandom. Would help if Vick didn't have a target on him. Some folks still want him hurt and or disabled.
He really needs to get his head straight.

Ah well, everyone in Philly knows there are jobs on the line if they go 8-8 again.

Especial Andy Reid's unfortunately for Philly

And having now watched the Jets game Tebow should have been allowed to throw the ball a few more times, the one time he did he hit the receiver in the hands who then dropped it under pressure.
And Cromartie should of had a few snaps at WR, on the first he completely tricked his opposite number with a simple stutter step but couldn't drag his toes in bound

Pittsburgh got a way with alot of holding and ather stuff, especially their offense. Of course, it is hard for the refs to see the holds that happen in a double team. Even some friends of mine who are Steelers fans say they should have gotten called more.

Well, the FOX announcers loudly pointed out how the Eagles got away with a late hit on Roethlisberger and pass interference on multiple plays. The Steelers had about three times the penalty yardage, and one of the Eagles' only scoring drives was greatly aided by two PF calls against the Steelers (one of which replays showed was shoulder-to-shoulder and not helmet-to-helmet). So it's almost certainly more accurate to say that the refs made and missed calls both ways, and that overall the officiating didn't decide the game.

Wait, I don't get it?

This is a joke right?

Tebow is a good running back at best.

he is worse than Rex Grossman as a Passing QB.

The one pass he threw in that game hit the receivers in the hands who then failed to catch it, Sanchez was terrible and made multiple bad decisions






And i like Grossman

Count me in the Sexy rexy "F*%# it I'm going deep" club. As well. Dude went to a Super Bowl.

So my picks went in fine this time. I guess I'm a forgetful dink and must not have hit save picks. The only thing that's been remotely keeping me afloat in pick em is that I've more or less nailed my confidence points.

I hate that Thursday night song!!!

BAhaha wow sucks to be the steelers right now. Funny no one picked the titans?

Maybe.. but their O-line is still getting away with some fairly obvious holding..... Guess the rules are different for "Elite" teams.

I bought four.

Does that come in adult sizes?

Cincinnati oh how you disgust me.

No explaination for Philly.... they had the game and pissed it away.
it was like watching one team play for 3 quarters, then another in the 4th.

This screeching hawk sound they keep playing in the pats/hawks game is starting to get on my nerves.....

I'd love to go to Seattle for a game. The crowd is always really into it, and it's been nearly twenty years since I was there, but I loved that city.

Yah I've heard nothing but good things about games in Seattle. And stupid me changed from picking the giants to SF 10 min before the game started. WTF was I thinking second guessing myself ;(

Wth was belichik thinking not going for the FG in the end of the first half. Stupidest football move I can remember. If New England loses because of that I'm gonna laugh. What's up with Brady though 2 picks, 2 intentional grounding.

And it probably just cost New England the game. Sick.

NE/SEA game is so good!

WTF.

Yup, should have kicked that damn FG. Brady not getting the ball near someone and getting called for IG was the only reason for it, though, and that practically never happens (anywhere in the NFL; not just to Brady).

Yah I don't think NE's secondary could get any worse. All of Wilson's td passes were just lob jobs and the pats couldn't even knock 1 down. Add that to the rediculous decision not to just kick a damn field goal(which the pats used to do when they were winning titles. just get points but not anymore)

Other than that wasn't a bad game to watch despite the pats losing.

Damn. The Texans just could not put pressure on Rodgers tonight and he absolutely tore them a new one.

Also, no running game = VERY bad day for the Texans. My picks this week are looking uglier than my 401k...

I really wish Buffalo would wake up and look for a real QB.

CJ Spiller is a blast to watch - reminds me of the days when the Argos were good and had Pinball making then entire opposing defense look like stumbling blind men!
But man, I just don't understand how you can stick with a QB who's accuracy problems are just so blaintently awful! I mean, I think a blind man would actually likely have a higher passer rating!

At least the Bills managed a win, but they can thank their defense for that one...

Looking at the way the season is going so far, Michael Vick will be looking for a new team

And for all the chargers fans. Lets hope turner is looking for a new team too. Rivers had a very cutleresque game tonight. 4 picks and 2 fumbles?

Woooooooooooooooooo!

GO BRONCOS!
