all work and no play
indeed, Wes is amazing....He's generously listed as 5'9" and takes punishing hits and keeps coming back for more.
I think the only person Im more impressed by right now is Sebastian Vollmer, that kid is incredible. He had one hell of a crushing block for Faulk I believe yesterday
Leigh Bodden > Dirty Sanchez
Edit: Oh yeah.....the Bengirls lost to the Raiders????

^ Karma. In a competition of the team who attracts most Will-The-Defendent-Please-Rise players, the one with the least had to come out ahead...hence Oakland.

Kinda late for a pick and I haven't been making weekly picks but I think Tennessee is winning this one. I still think Owen Daniels is too big of a loss and if VY and CJ keep playing like they've been playing....

the Patriots time of futility will be coming. Every dynasty has its day, then.... then it may win another or make it pretty far in the playoffs, then it'll implode sooner or later. Belichick can't cheat, er, coach forever, and Brady and Moss will have to retire eventually
oh yeah, how was Super Bowl XLII? I didn't get to watch it, I heard you guys had a perfect season up until that point

Considering how many he catches, vs how many times he's thrown to, I wouldn't trust them

I've always wondered how some hot-headed coach would handle him, if at all.

I had actually had a sneaking suspicion that exactly that was going to happen....just like the way we did it in 01 against St Louis, total role reversal

The Pats were definitely the underdog at one point, and now that it's their time people love to hate them.

@ Texans...
Alright...90 minutes till kickoff between the Dikes and Da Bears.
============
Dear Bears...
Your season is ruined. You have choked. Above and beyond. The Hawks have now taken over as the city's #1 sports franchise...and that's from a team run by kids. You should feel ashamed. And now, you go up against a team with an ancient QB and a Bernard Buryhim who calls your D "not scary". If you have any pride, you will at least show him that he is exactly what he is when you chose to let him walk. Please, just for your loyal followers...Beat the Dikings. And then, you can lose the rest of the games.
Sincerely,
-chah

this USC-Texas, I mean Arizona-Tennessee game is coming down to the wire!
EDIT: Vince Young did it again!
Looks like Tennessee should have been starting him all season.

When the response to a lovely Knox kickoff return of 70+ yards is 2 sacks and a false-start penalty...you know the team is in trouble.
That O-line needs to be gutted and sent to the scrap heap...pronto. It's easy to go after Cutler. But, when a "gunslinger" like Favre can throw for miles and have that little INTs...and barely get pressured in the pocket, you know how far a good O-line can go for a pro-caliber QB.
I'll save my hate for Cutler when Angelo (if he ever) repairs the O-line and he still performs like the second coming of Rex Grossman.

I shoot people
Someone remind me why Ben R. isn't playing?

The Vikings are simply a superior team, period.
No wait.... I can say for sure that I'm far from a Favre/Vikings fan, nor am I a hater of either in particular. But the Vikings d-line is relentless, their offense is explosive... reminiscent of the Saints/Colts and how they have so many weapons. Plus like Brees and Manning, Favre is playing the best football of his career.
Yes, the Bears o-line is bad, which explains Forte's production or lack thereof. Their receivers aren't that great either, so it definitely doesn't help Cutler's case. BUT, Aaron Rodgers is probably the most sacked QB in the NFL, yet his 5 interceptions all season is probably only 2nd best to Favre's THREE! Just going off the top of my head, for QB's that have started all-season. There's absolutely no way you can blame the rest of the offense when the QB throws 5 interceptions.
Why is anyone surprised?
