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


If they go after that complete tool, I hope Toronto disowns the Bills as our 'unofficial' NFL team!



And damn, what a comeback last night for the Broncos! I thought they were dead ducks after the Chargers scored another major at the end of the first half... Guess 'ol Payton is pretty much back to his pre-injured self?!

Yah Peyton was back to 90% of his old self to start the season. It just takes a few games to shake the rust off and get back into it. Brady in '09 was junk till the 6th game or so after missing a year.

Well, Andy Reid fired Juan Castillo. Hiring your offensive line coach to be your defensive coordinator was an impossibly dumb move by Reid in the first place. For Reid to do it midseason must mean his job is very clearly on the line now.

If Reid doesn't at least win a play-off game this year, he won't be back next season, which is a shame. He's a good coach in a crazy house.

Pats are giving me a freakin' heart attack again. Why the heck can't they FINISH OUT A FOURTH QUARTER this season?

At least they had a good drive to get Overtime this time.

It was kinda depressing though when watching as a neutral fan all the other games seemed like more of a contest and this was the game on Sky Sports

Sorry for that, but I'm a huge Texans fan so I was very happy!

Baltimore has an elite defense and to score 43 is a HUGE deal for us! 6-1, baby! Also, the game had a safety, which is always fun!

Also, also: My Louisiana Tech Bulldogs should be in the top 25 again! #1 Scoring offense in the country, baby! Also, #3 total offense!

Is Baltimores defense really elite now? They're missing ray Lewis, lardarius Webb, and Suggs had his first game back from injury. That's 3 of their 4 best players out or not up to full speed. 42 is 42 and they steamrolled Baltimore no doubt. But Baltimore might not be that great defensively for the rest of the year.

I don't think Greene the power runner expected to get hit THIS hard hahah. Brandon spikes from the pats is turning into one of the hardest hitters in the nfl(if he isn't already)

The finish in Buffalo was hilariously bad!

No defense to speak of really for either team... Absolutely insane! There were 3 touchdowns within 25 seconds - two of them coming within 12 seconds! I think a bunch of peewee players could have tackled better than those defenses.

Fitzpatrick looks like he's going to finally play a solid game... I mean, sure he did fumble the ball on a sack, but that was more on his offensive lineman playing doormat instead of blocking the guy.

Bills get a 4th down stop and take over the ball with barely 2 minutes to go in the game.

Fitzpatrick throws an absolutely brutal interception, (surprise!), Titans score a touchdown on the ensuing drive and go up by 1pt.

Bills fall part and can't even get into fieldgoal range.



I guess being linked to Toronto really does curse you?!
Oh well, living in Torontoland, you get used to every pro sports team being nothing but a disapointment year after year.

What were the bills thinking signing Dave wannstadt(sp?) to be their D coordinator? He is truly AWFUL, with the talent they have they shouldn't be this bad. DW has run the same defense for 15 years and its been figured out, time to move on simply put.

A quarterback who doesn't continuously drop the smelliest of brainfarts every single game would also help the Bills immensly as well!

This is true. Fitzpatrick had that one good season that got him a contract and hasn't looked great since. I still think that offense is good enough if they could get some semblance of coherency and coordination on D.

Happy to see the Bears keep winning

apparently though Brandon Marshall has called out Suh on the huge hit he put on Cutler

But cutler only missed one play directly after and few later on when he went for scans

Hahaha that judo takedown by SUH was BRUTAL!!! I thought cutler was gonna have a concussion, broken ribs, or a snapped collar bone. He showed great toughness despite his reputation of the contrary. Also the picture of stafford with the gigantic chunk of grass in his grill was hilarious poor kegz ;(

I Love Rex, and I love his "F*%# it I'm throwing it down field" attitude!

But, he only had 8 good games that Superbowl year, the other games his QB rating was as low as 4.6 at times.

That 06 Bears D was dominating, I see a lot of the 06 Bears D, in the current 12 D.

Cutler is as tough as they come, the media likes to say he is not tough, but he gets out there play after play, even after all of the hits, knockdowns and sacks he takes because of his anemic offensive line.

That last shot of Stafford with the field transplanted onto his helmet is the perfect summation of that whole monday night game.

They also had great ST in '06. And don't get me wrong I don't think Grossman was the main reason they went to the SB. But he absolutely helped. And in their stretch run really didn't hurt the team so that is what it is. He's no jake the snake Plummer though ill tell yah that.

That game against Arizona I think it was when the offence only put up 3 points and Rex had 6 turnovers in the first half (4 picks 2 fumbles) and the bears won purely on the D and it's takeaways

Still this season Peanut TIllman has been on pro bowl form and the D has only conceded one more TD than it's scores and after the 4 takeaways last night it has the most in the league with 21 takeways (Joint 2nd is the Giants and Pats w/ 18 and an extra game)


from what i saw sanchez had a surprisingly good game on the pats apart from the Pick he threw (On the other side a receiver was wide open, Keller IIRC and Greene ready for the check down)
But the Jets need to justify Tebow and actually line him up at RB w/ Greene in the shotgun w/ Sanchez. That would definitely freeze alot of defence's front 4 or 7
