that's a good assement of the situation, Penningtion is the only QB with experience, so he should start for now. The o-line was weak but that's why they drafted Jake Long. I live in the same area where Henne played. Ive seen him with my own eyes and i was impressed, i really like him going into the future and i think he can be a good QB in this league

Yeah, that's what we're hoping for. 8D He looked real good in the preseason, comfortable and all. I think he's gonna finally be Miami's franchise QB. And yes, the O-Line has improved a bunch, which is something I'm very positive about, since that was one of our problems last year. We made quite a few improvements, methinks. Maybe in one or two seasons we can even make the playoffs!

Okay, i will be lying to you guys if i thought the Bears were going to win tonight, due to the poor season last year and a mediocre preseason this year. But it seems like i was wrong, The bears defeated the Colts by 3 possessions (meaning 14 or more points) This game has renewed my love for the Bears, so go Bears! Woo!


You and me both, trust me.

I agree with most of it except three spots.


Philly should be 5, Chargers 6.

I understand that the Eagles played a average team, but you shouldn't stay in the top 5 after losing a game they should have definetly won. Also couple this with Shawn Merriman being done for the year and you see my point.


Same case wtih Jacksonville.

And New Orleans can be in the top ten, but their defense is still weak and when the play a team with a a good passing offens, they'll get splattered.

I'd say your Bills are primed to win the AFC East. They have the most complete team, and The New York Bretts still look average.


I do hope they run up the score on the Patriots though tongue.gif

I'm not gonna get my hopes up. 2003 was supposed to be the Bills year after they had signed Takeo Spikes, Sam Adams, Lawyer Milloy and James Posey and after they destroyed the Patriots in Week 1 they fell apart.

They made a run at the end of last season. And its basically the same team. I still think New England could win the division, but it depends on the other teams.

This sunday will say alot about both teams.


Takeo Spikes is an injury ridden shell of a pro bowler BTW

If the Pats can pressure Brady, and step up their coverage, they can win. Cassels is alright, but he's not a high scoring QB. It'll be a defensive game for the Pats.

you man favre don't ya? Cassel doent need to be a gunslinging QB to win, he needs to manage the game, have Maroney run the ball well, and let Moss and Welker make plays when they need to, but NY's young secondary lloked good last week, reevis did an excellant job putting himself in perfect position to defend Ginn and make a play on the ball which he did, they are gonna get tested by NE's Wrs.

Have you seen his days in Buffalo? He was one of the main reasons they had the #1 ranked defense 2 years in a row.

Well, the first season at least he was. But he got hurt and kept getting hurt. When The Eagles Signed him I was excited because he seemed very passionate about the game like our Safety Brian Dawkins, but he was very ineffective and at the end of the season he got hurt again.
