Week 6

  1. I hate when the Giants have to play real NFL teams.  Enough Saints scored in their endzone to constitute a holy orgy.
  2. The Steelers had Mangini reaching for the “Make-A-Trade-For-Anyone-But-Cribbs” button again.  How long until Cribbs also starts playing D? 
  3. Carolina and TB… two teams that should burn their passing playbooks and put an RB under center.  Completion percentages would skyrocket.
  4. The battle of Succop vs. Suisham was a thriller.  0 TDs, 6 FGs.  Another winless team beat the Redskins.  Zorn gets fired on 10/27/09.
  5. I understand wanting to sell them, but someone wants to buy the Rams?  They must be excited about having the 1st pick in the draft.
  6. The Cardiac Cats’ defense looked like it was having an epilepsy courtesy of Matt Schaub.
  7. If everyone on the Lions offense wasn’t so injured, they might’ve been able to, you know… attempt a field goal.
  8. Seahawks quickly went from most impressive to most pathetic.  14 TOTAL rushing yards?  Couldn’t they get more by falling forward 5 times?
  9. It took the Giants 15 minutes to blow out the Raiders last week.  It took the Eagles… wait… what… seriously?
  10. As I said on Saturday: “With Harper, Fuller, and Finnegan out, Brady’s gonna explode all over those drooping Tit… http://bit.ly/DiWcl
  11. Sanchez had as many INTs as he had completions to his own WRs & TEs.  I challenge you to name a Bills DB that didn’t intercept him.
  12. Is it me or does Jay Cutler look like Harland Williams?  Oh, and when Forte gets near the endzone, his hands get softer than butter. melted butter. milk.
  13. Someone’s gotta tell the Ravens that games last 60 min., not 58.  When he’s done spankin ‘em, Grandpa Favre can sit ‘em on his knee and do it.
  14. Eddie Royal had more TDs on kick returns (2) than he had receptions (0).  Also, I love watching Darren Sproles run: Sproles' amazing run

Week 5

  1. Now we're gonna have to hear the term "Cardiac Cats" until we all wish the Bengals had lost. Apparently, Ed Reed is the Raven's best receiver.
  2. There were 9 total points scored in the Browns-Bills game.  9.  Total.  Trust me, you don’t want a recap.
  3. The Redskins are yet to score more than 17 in a game.  The Panthers won their first one of the season.  Adorable.
  4. Beating the Chiefs in OT is the equivalent of losing.  Regardless, US history dictates that the Cowboys never lose to the Indians Chiefs.
  5. The Little Giants could beat the Raiders (I bet Icebox outperforms JaMarcus).  To be fair, I'd keep losing too if winning led to a hug from Al Davis.
  6. The Eagles and Bucs are like day and night... night, of course, can't throw, run, or play D.
  7. That the Rams scored at all should be deemed a victory.  TD dances when you're down by >25 in the 4th should be penalized... I’m lookin at you, Donnie Avery.
  8. Remember when Daunte Culpepper used to be good?  Me neither.
  9. After this play, http://bit.ly/syB6L, you’d call on Andre to handle goal line carries.  You’d be a better play-caller than Kyle Shanahan.
  10. Orton, Marshall, and McDaniels were at least as good as Brady, Moss, and Belichick.  Oh, how the mighty have fallen.
  11. MJD had 34 rushing yards.  Seattle put up 41 points.  A quick calculation indicates that the Jaguars got embarrassed.  JDR blames MSW.
  12. Hope Dre Bly isn't as premature off the field as he was with his celebration.  Singletary's gonna tear him up worse than Roddy already did.
  13. When Peyton's on the field, there may as well not be a D on it.  In fact, he doesn't need receivers either.  Titans might actually go 2-14.
  14. Rex Ryan and Tony Sparano sure do make 2 boring teams fun to watch.  Things will go sour for Braylon when LeBron eventually gets traded to NY.

Week 4


        1. NYG's Steve Smith is no longer the "other" Steve Smith.  The Chiefs suck. Bad.
        2. Chicago blew out Detroit.  Surprise, surprise.  Fantasy relevance is happy to have you back, Mr. Forte.
        3. Cincy beat Cleveland in OT.  Rookie WR Massaquoi had 148 yards... and you thought the Massaquoi went the way of the Mohicans.  Braylon who?
        4. Oakland is terrible, and they're only gonna get worse with Run DMC out 2-4 weeks.  It doesn't even matter who they played.
        5. Peyton Manning is ON FIRE.  
        6. Tennessee has no secondary... they even made Garrard look good.
        7. The refs protect Brady more than his O-line can. Poor Flacco, everyone knows Clayton won't catch anything thrown overhand!
        8. Washington beat Tampa Bay 16-13.  Yuck.  Both teams are among the bottom 6 in the NFL... below even the Lions.
        9. Did Trent Edwards forgot how to get the ball to guys on his own team (4 turnovers)?  Can't blame him tho... after all, TO is on his team.
        10. Sanchez finally remembered that he's a rookie, and he played accordingly.  Lucky for Brees his D scored more points than the Jets offense.
        11. Orton > Romo (at least so far this season).  Marshall broke a lucky one though.
        12. The Rams couldn't score against a high school team, let alone against Mike Singletary's 49ers.
        13. I shouldn't have dropped Mendenhall from my fantasy team 2 weeks ago.  Apparently, the only Steeler assigned to cover Gates was Polamalu.
        14. Yep, that's what Favre needed -- more spotlight.  It might be less painful to get hit by a truck than to get sacked by Jared Allen 4.5 times.
