Yep, they made a bunch of great draft picks and have a healthy Stafford for once. CJ is one if not THE best wideout in the NFL.

Best decision evar? Getting rid of Matt Millen, jackhole should stick to broadcasting games and stay out of management.

Just wait until Fairley comes back, he and Suh will put fear in the hearts of QBs.

1:00 east coast games start at like 7am there, right? That would be strange to me

I now know where I'll be spending some of my time at on these forums from time to time... I'm in quite a few leagues as I am every year.

LiL side note, but Paul Posluszny former Bills Linebacker, now apart of the Jaguars, came into our Audi dealership on Monday & I got to chat with him for a bit. Plus we have Maurice Jones Drew come in as well from time to time, along with several other guys.

The lions have been a great story, but I still want to see how they look against some elite teams. The Dallas game, might be their hardest to date, and kinda sucks that if they're for real, they don't meet up with the Packers until like twice in their last 6 games. Hopefully those will be some exciting games though near the end of the season for the lead in the division. I kinda feel like the Bills run has been more impressive since they have taken out the Pats, but they've been in some very close games too.

Yea it sucks that games here in Hawaii start at 7am. I always forget, but I think after the daylight savings change over it's a more reasonable 8am (since Hawaii doesn't change their clocks). Nice thing is all the games are over in time for dinner on Sundays. I used to miss MNF because it would start at like 2 or 3pm, but I've been working from home recently, so usually I get to catch that. I think they replay MNF right after the game again for all those guys that do have to work, but I remember when I would get back by like 6pm, I could either catch like just the 4th quarter, or have to avoid all sports media outlets for a little while, and watch the replay. I haven't played a lot of fantasy, but I know my friends i'm playing with this year thought I might be at a disadvantage if there were some like game time decisions that I would have a hard time catching at like 6am. Hasn't been an issue yet, but I could see how that might be a problem.

Fins bring in another running back who had a good season years ago and sign Steve Slaton.

What's odd is coming home from a late night at the club and watching NFL countdown before sleep LOL.

What's great about H-town is since we have no pro team, we usually get the top games, typically one AFC and one NFC game at the early morning slot and then 1 NFC game at mid-morning slot, and then the SNF game which comes on at 2PM. After 6 hours of football this last Sunday, I had to take a drive around the island in my 911 for a change of pace. The Colts-Steelers game ending up being pretty close and I listened to it on the radio anyways.

The Cowboys get mad exposure so that's good for me. MNF ends before I get home but ESPN re-televises at 7PM HST. I just can't surf the web or answer my phone from Monday afternoon until 10 PM so I don't know the score.

Talk about shooting yourself in the foot...what were the 'Boys up by? 40000 points and let the Lions right back in it with a Grossman/Cutler-type pass from Romo for a TD...?

For once it was actually Romo's fault.

Niners win!! Philly is nothing but hype.

Plus, it's good to see the Cowgirls lose and not win by three points or less.

No doubt Philly. All of the analyst already had them winning the SB before the season started.

Philly...everyone picked them as the team to beat.


I honestly had no expectations for the Cowboys and their up-and-down play reflects it.

They are a middling team...sorta like my Bears...although, I think Dallas has better weapons on offence than the I have to watch through in Chicago.

I agree. Dallas got some hype too tho.

So the jets are getting handled by the ravens right now.
So can't stand the jets.

But the way this seaso had gone, the game ain't over yet.

Time to rename the Eagles from the Heat. Maybe the Clippers or something.

Please please please fire Jeff Ireland and Tony Sparano. I knew it that they should've dumped them last offseason and brought in Cowher to run the show. This team is just regressing.
