Sorry Brett Favre, but you deserve this.
Look, I and most NFL fans were hoping you’d ride off into the sunset after another last second interception ended your team’s season at the edge of a Super Bowl appearance. But you decided to pull your usual sh*t. And why not. You adding another 20 millie to your bank account and last year showed you still had enough left in the tank to dominate the league. What difference does one more year when you’ve been owning this league for almost two decades?
Evidently quite a bit. Despite 140 yards from Adrian Peterson and another good game from their D, the Vikes fell to 0-2 as Favre’s four turnovers sunk their chances and gave the Dolphins first place in the AFC East. At this point, Brad Childress seriously has to be considering pressing the panic button—be it mortgaging the future for Vincent Jackson, getting Favre on a strict drug regimen of HGH and Vicodin or getting Tavaris back in the lineup.
After a week of trash talk buildup, most eyes – mine included – were focused on the Meadowlands for the matchup between the Pats and the Jets, and more particularly, Darelle Revis versus Randy Moss. While Moss started slow, he broke off of Revis Island with a sensational one-handed grab that gets an early nomination for catch of the year.
Revis was embarrassed so badly he took his ball and went home, asking out with a hammie injury. As a Pats fan, it was a great moment to witness one of the loudmouth trash talking Jets get his comeuppance,
Unfortunately, pride goeth before the fall. I should have turned off the game right then, cause the rest of the game was a total trainwreck for the Patriots. Darius Butler got picked on more than a kid with a lazy eye and the offense went from a well-oiled machine to a discombobulated disgrace in a matter of minutes. You can’t consider the Pats contenders until they win a few big road games. Hey it could be worse—I could be a Cowboys fan.
Quick Hits
– Donovan McNabb gave Redskins fans hope by throwing the ball all over the Houston before their defense gave it away in the fourth quarter. His adversary Matt Schaub put up 500 yards, bringing tears of joy to fantasy owners everywhere.
– Lions fans take heart, you’re this close to turning things around. Jahvid Best is the latest weapon the Motor City’s unearthed, as he nearly singlehandedly led a successful comeback against…Michael Vick’s Eagles? What the f#ck is going on in 2010?
– The aforementioned Cowboys blew their home opener against the frisky Bears, as Jay Cutler had his annual good early game that gets people on the bandwagon. We’ll see if people are still on it come Thanksgiving.
– The Manning Bowl was a dud as Peyton toyed with his little bro. Sadly, the Colts are not dead.
– The Titans blew a chance to assert themselves as leaders in the AFC South in a game that featured Kerry Collins and the greatest onside kick of all time. With only 34 yards rushing, the Chris Johnson 2,500 yard is watch is over before it began.



The real question is whether the Steelers will run out of GB’s before Rothlisberger comes back.
That Moss catch was amazing… just absolutely a thing of beauty.
“The Manning Bowl was a dud as Peyton toyed with his little bro. Sadly, the Colts are not dead.”
lol – I know, right? He schooled his little brother (and that is the way it should be).
That Moss catch was amazing… just absolutely a thing of beauty
===================================================================
When Moss is motivated he is still one of the top WR of all time; he just doesn’t bring it every game. The catch was great, Revis grabbing his hammy while Moss made the catch was even better. Revis didn’t need the medical staff to check his hamstring; he needed BURN medicine. lol
I am getting tired of the Manning Bowl, I don’t need the cameras to cut to their mom while the Giants are getting mollywhooped.
I am also tired of brett farve and his act, he can’t lose enough games. But it is a shame that the Vikings Offense so far hasn’t played well consistently. Their Defense isn’t playing badly at all.
The way the Steelers are playing defense, if their O-Line plays 10% better than how they are playing so far, you are looking at the AFC rep for the Super Bowl.
Hey it could be worse—I could be a Cowboys fan.
===================================
Not cool.
VY is on suicide watch.
GO FINS!
Colts Offense = Amazing. They were like ninjas with their rush game last nite. And Peyton was on point like he should. I’m just glad they weren’t trying to play from behind like they usually do.
Giants Defense = Horrendous. It was equally as bad as Eli.
Pats/Jets- I too wanting to see a game full of Moss abusing Revis. The win would have been even better but I guess this amazing highlight will just have to do.
Eagles/Lion – I couldn’t even watch it b/c I live in Atlanta and don’t have a sports cable package. The Falcons were great though.
Dallas- Yeah you’re in deep trouble. I thought the Bears were gonna be a cake walk for you. You got done in by CUTLER and Co. That’s not a good sign.
I take great solice in the fact that the Cowboys will host this years superbowl but will no be an active particpant. How bout dem COWBOYS!! lol
@Bigga: Did you see mama Payton consoling baby Eli after the game?! I smell *sniff* *sniff* PUSSY!!! Peyton exercised total dominance & authority over his baby bro, it wasn’t even a contest; I felt like I was playing Madden 11 against the computer on the Rookie difficulty level!!!
The Patriots started off the game with excellent drives but started getting sloppy (not anything worse than the sloppy D exhibited by the Giants! Fucking Addai was running through the lines like nothing) The Jets still haven’t impressed me though; if they can win a few road games against more formidable opponents THEN maybe I’ll consider them top contenders.
ps: Did anyone see Rex Ryan talking to the press in the post-game interview? Ma’fuckaz were acting as if they had just won the friggin’ Superbowl!!!! Fuckouttaherebro!!!
Moss didn’t even have to one-hand that jawn. He did it just to further son Revis. Beautiful catch, though.
So we aren’t going to discuss my Falcons whoopin the Cardinals ass? That’s ok. We’ll see those teams in the playoffs.
In other news….
Matt Schaub provided me with 39 of my team’s 87 points. Now I just need productive RBs.
You must respect…or ELSE!!!

I might have underestimated my Bears. The D looks motivated and has playmakers on the D-line (Peppers) LB’s (Urlacher n Briggs) and the secondary has some young playmakers (Bowman, Moore, Wright) and solid vets (Tillman, Harris). Might not be as good as the 05 or 06 units that dominated but they’re definitely an improvement over the past few seasons. Most importantly, the offense looks alive in the passing game – if the o-line gets their shit together we’ll be a pRoblem because we got SPEED all over the field at every skill position, even TE.
El Ro: Never trust a Mike Martz offense. Cutler will hit the ground more times than Yung berg. lol
Flea I watched that mollywhopping until Broadwalk Empire came on; then I listened to the Mollywhooping on the radio.

smh… I keep seeing the replay where he got dumped on his helmet by 3 linebackers. Brutal.

Thats how I played it too. I was just gonna wait til the 11pm showing but that score kept growing and growing and it became pointless. Just watched the 10;15 jwn instead
I feel like I was the only Redskins fan who absolutely knew we were going to lose at halftime. Everyone I knew was talking about “we back baby, this our year”. Seriously Skins fans, stop it. Its not our year. We always collapse in the fourth quarter. We always have since Snyder took over the team. Its an organizational issue that permeates through the team. Its a negative environment furthered by idiotic fans who are elated every off season after 6 win years because they believe the “next year is our year” mantra. The first time I heard that was at the end of the 1999 season. Its complete crap. Stop drinking the kool-aid Redskins fans… Daniel Snyder pissed in it.
LMAO @ Bigga. I don’t blame Martz offense, we’ve had a shit line for 3 years. Needs to be addressed asap. All I know is a Martz offense beats a Ron Turner shitfest I saw the last 4 seasons.

Eagles to start Kolb over Vick on Sunday
SMH. I hope they lose… and badly (no offense at all to any Eagles fans, but this is just dirty).
FUCK U part 2 for ignoring the Bucs again…
Andy Reid is a ra-tard for starting Kolb next week. Kolb may be our future but Vick is just the better QB right now. But Andy’s just gonna hand him the starters job without having to fight for it.
ay yea da bucs lookn good so far.of cours it wont last but good start.FUCKN LIONS MAN!we need stafford.if he was ther we def woulda won.hill is a good band aid but he cant last.n watch how u speak on thm bears2.midwest up.as long as minni keep getn popd like they did.(not 2bad tho cuz i got their fantasy defens.)bears n lions nda north!
Schaub threw for 497 yards, not 500 (which for fantasy football players those three extra yards would have mattered that much more).
Breaston wasn’t able to repeat his week one performance against the Falcons & Fitzgerald got the majority of targets, however, the Cardinals got steamrolled, losing 41-7.
My Jaguars lost big against the Chargers, which wasn’t a shocker (the majority of Jaguar wins/losses will be within 7 points, if that’s the case — which is rare, then they will either blow out a team or get blown away). Anytime Maurice Jones-Drew doesn’t run for over a 90-100 yards the Jaguars will most likely lose + Garrard has never been good on the road & even last year most of his interceptions were thrown during away games.
The Bengals were able to overcome the powerhouse defense of the Ravens thanks to Flacco’s 4 interceptions & their [Cincinnati] kicker, Mike Nugent (who came through clutch in 4th quarter).
Their were some close games around the league such as:
The Kansas City Chiefs beating the Cleveland Browns, 16-14.
The Chicago Bears beating the Dallas Cowboys, 27-20.
The Philadelphia Eagles beating the Detroit Lions, 35-32.
The Miami Dolphins beating the Minnesota Vikings, 14-10.
The Pittsburgh Steelers beating the Tennessee Titans, 19-11.
The Oakland Raiders beating the St. Louis Rams, 16-14.
The Houston Texans beating the Washington Redskins in OT, 30-27.
The Seattle Seahawks were unable to repeat their dominance from week 1 & were beaten comfortably by the Broncos.
Although people get caught up in the misconception that if you lose to one team/beat one team then you will lose to next team/beat the next team I don’t think the 49ers will stand much of a chance against the Saints tonight (especially if Gore can’t produce — who was held to only 38 yards rushing against the Seahawks on 17 attempts). Smith will also have to be perfect against a strong Saints defense.
My prediction: Although Singletary will probably have his boys fired up after their embarrassing week one loss, I don’t like this match-up for them. I see the Saints winning 24-7.
@elandyo
word.
Vicks hot right now…why take away the starting job?
whoeva is gonna start needs to earn it & i havent seen kolb do that
GO BEARS!!!
Sadly the Colts are not dead? Sadly YOU’RE not dead..f*%kin hater. Go lick Mike Shanahan’s old balls.
