Dolphins win again. 8D 17-10 over the Chargers. Our defense was INSANE. >D Indianapolis came back in the last few minutes for three quick TDs...@_____@ Insane. And the Titans are still undefeated, at the Raven's expense. Only downside so far today is that Green Bay lost. ;_;

Congrats on your Dolphins winning. They outplayed my Chargers (much to my dismay). Our defense needs to get its act together, their are a good group but they have been under performing. Well, we started 2-3 last season and made it all the way to the AFC championship game, so I won't worry yet.

I'm not worried about them winning the division I want them to go to the playoffs! They haven't been there in over a freaking decade! arg.gif



If they win they division, they're guaranteed a spot no matter what their record otherwise the NFC West would never to get field a team this year. Don't know how well they'll do once they're, but they should make the playoffs.

I wouldn't worry about the Bills D TOO much, when your offense turns it over 3 times in your territory there's not much your defense can do about it. If Trent Edwards' concussion keeps him out for an extended period of time, then it might be time to worry.

At least you're not me. It's just been a bad year overall for sports fans in Washington State. Between the Mariners, the Team-Formerly-Known as-the-Sonics (FU, Clay Bennett, FU), and the craptastic records of our College and Pro Football teams... I find myself saying, "Well at least Jim Zorn's doing well in DC."

Also: Little known, but Shriner and I were the next two people on the Seahawks' list of potential WRs. Tru Fax.

Pretty much. At least you're not a Seattle sports fan like Jwolf. I don't know of anybody who has it worse than them at the moment. At least St. Louis and Detriot field competitive teams in other sports. All of Seattle's teams are awful and the basketball one just became the Thunder.

Especially when 2 of those turnovers (in particular Royal's fumble) could've been reviewed! WTF was kitten Jauron thinking letting it go?

You know what the most interesting comment was for me: the one about the Lions being one of the worst teams they have ever seen. They say this and don't even put Detriot last. What does that say about the Rams?

Nah, that's mostly Marc Bulger. I feel bad for the guy. He's not a bad quarterback (check out some of his previous seasons), but he and Green both look really bad because the offensive line is terrible. I'd be jittery behind a line like that too, with such a high risk of getting sacked on each snap.

Final Scores

Vikings 12 Lions 10
Falcons 22 Bears 20
Saints 34 Raiders 3
Bretts Jets 26 Bengals 14
Texans 29 Dolphins 28
Buccaneers 27 Panthers 3
Colts 31 Ravens 3
Rams 19 Redskins 17
Jaguars 24 Broncos 17
Eagles 40 Cardinals 26
Packers 27 Seahawks 17
laugh.gif Cardinals 30 Cowboys 24 (Overtime)

what a great day, seriously, even the election cant make up this kinda drama. Heroes were made and fantastic finishes all around.
The Cardinals make a statement with the blocked punt to win, Falcons pull a win outta nowhere, the Eagles come back down 11 and get two huge int's to save the season

It was ugly for us but i'll take it, just glad we won, this bye week is needed. Hopefully westbrook will be fine.

I'm depressed. I could have tolerated Carolina losing, but not losing 27-3. Nobody besides the Titans and Giants look like contenders. Dallas's defense is overrated and they're extremely turnover prone. Carolina looked great and then by got creamed today. Tampa Bay, though looking good today hasn't exactly been consistent this year. The Redskins won four in a row and beat the Saints, Cardinals, Dallas on the road, and Philli on road, but can't beat the RAMS at HOME?! The same Rams whose closest game was a loss by 17 to the Bills. And if I were a Viking fan I'd be worried that all they could get was twelve points against one of the sorriest defenses in the league.

we killed the rams, then lost to the skins, then the rams beat the skins.

that's how the NFL works. you really cant tell who's for real and who's not, divisions are wide open and so are the wild card spots. it's gonna be a crazy mad dash to the playoffs in the 2nd half

Yeah Jake Delhomme looked like he was playing in his 05 season. The turnovers really did them in during the game against the Buc's great defense. Both teams are going to be contending for the division title as I can't see the Falcons or Saint putting up much of a contest. Ravens got destroyed by the Colts. The offense couldn't muster any good drives and they turned the ball over five times! They're continuing their streak of like 7(?) straight road loses and I can only hope they finally break that against the Dolphins (I'm looking at you Zat >_O) next week. And I agree Nate. Dallas's defense is terribly overrated. Their special teams looked pathetic out there today and that punt block at the end was something else. They really have to rely on their offense to put up high numbers to stay contending or else they fall behind. And the Rams got their first win of the season over my best mate's favorite team. It was quite enjoyable to hear his displeasure on how the Rams won with only achieving field goals on offense. Now I can only hope the Roethlisberger ends up having a hard time playing since he is without a strong run support. Otherwise Ravens dont have much of a chance at the division title.
