If your like myself, you just finished watching the last football game... Now we wait until the madness begins yet again this coming weekend. More surprises this week as the Defending Champion Steelers lose to the KANSAS CITY CHIEFS !! I know I couldn't believe it myself, but after watching my far SUPERIOR EAGLE team put up only 9 points against the Oakland Raiders just a few weeks ago, I'd have to quote KG when he won the NBA Championship......ANYTHING IS POSSIBAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAL! Big Ben was sidelined towards the end of the game with rumors of concussion like symptoms. This would worry an average fan but Ben's been hit more times than a Hispanic kid at a parent teacher conference so I expect him to bounce back accordingly.
Giants Vs. Falcons 34-31
The G-men needed this win badly, as their 4 game skid needed to come to an abrupt end if they planned on competing for ANY type of playoff spot, Eli finally looked solid passing for over 300 yards and throwing 3 touchdowns as well, Brandon Jacobs was once again a NON factor, garnering slightly over 80 yards rushing. The Giants defense was once again MEDIOCRE but their offense, Eli Manning in particular was able to carry them through. They sneak out a 3 point win off a field goal from Lawrence Tynes in Overtime. They move to 6-4 A much needed confidence boost for a team that not only lost their last 4 games, but also will be without their Linebacker Captain Antonio Pierce. We will see if they can carry this confidence and momentum into this week when they face the Denver Broncos.
Patriots Vs. Jets 31-14
The Jets, after beating the New England Patriots in their first meeting this year, would have loved nothing more than to snap their losing streak (2 games). That thought was erased the second the first snap took place, the patriots came out in familiar fashion putting up 14 points quickly in the first quarter and a total of 24 in the first half, the Jets, who kept it relatively close throughout could not withstand Mark Sanchez's Interceptions which totaled 4 by the time the game was over. The Jets drop to 4-6 and their playoff chances do the same. Tom Brady seems to have his swagger back throwing for over 300 yards and 1 touchdown pass. One highlight was Ya LiL Man Wesley Welker, who had 15 Catches for 192 Yards.. DIZZZAMN, that's created player status right there.
Eagles Vs. Bears 24-20
The Eagles faced the Chicago bears in a Sunday Night Football Showdown, Jay Cutler desperately looking to shed the 5 Interception embarrassment he put up last week against the 49ers. Sadly he could not, Cutler continues to struggle, over or under throwing receivers that cost the bears multiple touchdowns. I can only attribute Cutlers abysmal performance to those around him, but I can only do that for so long. However being that I'm an EAGLES fan, WHO THE HELL CARES?!! EAGLES WON, THAT'S ALL YOU NEED TO KNOW. moving right along lol
Saints Vs. Buccaneers 38-7
Not much to be said here, if you watch football, you could have predicted this outcome from seeing it on either teams schedule at the beginning of the season. The short and simple Synopsis? Drew Brees is a Monstro,although only throwing for a human like 187 yards and 3 touchdowns, that, combined with the fact that the Bucs SUCK BALLSACK Concludes this recap. Seriously though, the Saints stay perfect and continue to silence the critics, granted its the Bucs, but their current undefeated status which includes convincing victories against the Giants, Eagles Etc Etc. Is truly a testament to how far Mr Andrew Brees has come. Let the "Whose the Best QB"? talks begin.
Chiefs Vs. Steelers 27-24
No, it's not a typo. The below mediocre Kansas City Chiefs defeated the DEFENDING CHAMPION PITTSBURGH STEELERS. I mean, our President is black, so I can't say that I don't totally believe that this could happen. LOL But damn, Big Ben put up almost 400 yards passing and 3 touchdowns but in the end it was not enough. The Steelers continue to struggle on Special Teams giving up a touchdown on the opening kick off.... Really? C'MOOON MAAAN.. That's just unacceptable, I know Mike Tomlin got in those guys' ASS after the game(no homo) As I mentioned earlier, Big Ben suffered a concussion towards the end of the game. Hopefully he can put all the marbles back in the jar before his next game in order to start, but the man has been sacked over 150 times in the last 5 years!!! so we'll see.
Lions Vs. Cleveland 38-37
Yes, I know what your thinking? WTF? Lmao, yes the Lions and the Browns put up a combined 75 POINTS! Brady Quinn, who all year had only thrown 3 touchdown passes, passed for 304 yards and 4 Touchdowns, I wasn't actually watching this game, but I was following it on ESPN.com, and I kept refreshing to make sure my computer wasn't broken, Stafford fell behind 21-3 early on, but picked it up and threw for 422 yards and 5 TOUCHDOWN passes. What the hell happened here? I guess both teams sucked so much they actually cancelled each other out! LMAO This game had everything, laughing, crying, suspense. The Lions were able to pull it out at the end though, after a defensive pass interference ROBBERY put them at 1st and goal with no time left which they were able to turn into 6 points with time expiring.
Packers Vs. 49ers 30-24
Aaron Rodgers continue to be a Fantasy whore consistently putting up above average numbers and keeping most people contending in fantasy leagues they would otherwise not be. The man put up 344 yards passing and 2 touchdowns, stats that have consistently echoed this mans resume all season. FACT the PACKERS ARE POO POO without this man, make no mistake. Not much to tell here, except that Vernon Davis goes Berserko yet again, with over 100 yards receiving and a Touch.....
Vikings Vs. Seahawks 35-9 '
Whatever "Youth Juice" Mr. Farve has left, he's making sure to squeeze EVERY LAST DROP out of the bottle. I mean are you FREAKIN KIDDIN ME? I know, I know, it's the Seahawks, but still.... Granted, he only threw for 213 yards but 4 Touchdowns? Its like he was playing against Pop Warner! Smh Ridiculous, I guess maybe this irks me more than most because I HATE FARVE!! LOL Nothing personal, I just think hey man, YOUR 90!! Let it go. I guess numbers don't lie, and with the help of Adrian Peterson, Mr. Farve has been able to carry the formerly misguided Vikings to a More than Respectable record of 9-1......Whoa..
Jaguars Vs. Bill 18-15
Yaaaaawn, Bla bla bla, this was more boring than 5th period American History. Jones Drew managed a touch, but only 66 yards rushing. On another note, Mr. CRYBABY himself Terrell Owens, finally got his due! 197 yards receiving and a touchdown. Too bad they lost the game, so what do those stats really mean Mr. Owens Hmmmm? Fitzpatrick threw for 297 yards and a touch, Garrard? 215 passing and a touch... Like I said YAAAAAAAAWN..... Moving right along...
Dolphins Vs. Panthers 24-17
The dolphins came into Carolina and defeated the Panthers on the back of Re-Emerging running back Ricky Williams. The man rushed for 119 yards and had 3 Touchdowns. Uncharacteristically enough, Jake Delhomme only threw 1 interception, but his 227 yards passing and 1 measly Touchdown were not enough, not even if you throw in Deangelo Williams' 122 yards rushing.(no Tds)I had Williams in my fantasy league this week, so while I was pleased with the yardage, a TD would have been much appreciated.
Cowboys Vs. Redskins 7-6
You know how sometimes people say, the score doesn't exemplify what the game was like? Well this one DOES! Tony Romo proves once again that he's all HYPE. The cowboys underachieve yet again in another horrible performance against one of the worst teams in the NFL. Romo threw for 158 yards and 1 touchdown, which incidentally came within the last 4 minutes of regulation. For a professional football team, with the talent that can be found on the Dallas Cowboys depth chart, this team never ceases to amaze me at how badly they can SUCK. I hate when people compare the BOYS to the NEW YORK YANKEES! I mean really? Why? Cause J. Jones and George are close? Well whatever, I never want to hear that comparison mentioned in the same breath again. The Cowboys are a joke this year, and unless they shape up their going to be much less fortunate against the More than Above average teams they will be facing the remainder of the year.
Chargers Vs. Broncos 32-3
Is it just me? Or does the Broncos season seem like Deja Vu? I mean, starting the season 6-0 and having the Chargers start 2-3? Check! Then having the Chargers go nuts and regaining control of the division? Check LoL I mean, Seriously? Rivers only had to throw for 145 yards and a Touch against you? LT only has to rush for 73 yards and a touch? Man o man, to put it metaphorically, it's like some dude you used to be cooler than, coming into your house and sleeping with your wife cause your chubby and out of shape now. LoL Yup, that's just about right. Such a shame too, cause Orton was having a pretty decent season thus far.
Raiders Vs. Bengals 20-17
This would be my second upset of this week, the Bengals came out strong, scoring once in the first quarter and again early in the first quarter to take a 14 pt lead. But a Raider touchdown late in the second quarter and a Field Goal later, suddenly it's a game again with 10 minutes remaining! Raiders continue to prove, that ANY GIVEN SUNDAY Any team can beat....ANY TEAM. And that my friends is why....... I HEART FOOTBALL!!!!
Cardinals Vs. Rams 21-13
So BAM! My man Mr. Kurt Warner, one of my two Starting QB's this week in my fantasy league. For those of you who don't know, the QB position to me is the most important position ESPECIALLY in fantasy football, so naturally this match up had my mouth watering. Mr. Warner came out in expected fashion, hitting Boldin and Fitzgerald each for a pair of Touchdowns. It was looking GREAT at the end of the first half with Warner passing for 203 yards and 2 Touchdowns... And then......IT HAPPENED! Apparently Warner took some sort of hit to the head and did not come in to start the 3rd quarter. I didn't panic, I figured... "Hey, the dudes like 60 give em a minute to regroup" But then I got the fantasy update...."KURT WARNER LEFT GAME WITH HEAD INJURY MATT LEINART WILL START 3RD QUARTER" FML!!!! Warner finished with the stats I previously mentioned and still did decent in my league(16 pts) but he could have had a MONSTER GAME. Not to mention Larry Fitz( Who I also had at starting WR) could have done just the same. What can I say? When it's not in the cards, it's not in the cards. The Cardinals barely hung on to win that game after the Rams threatened to look like an ACTUAL football team but then ended up being WHO WE THOUGHT THEY WERE!!!. Bla Bla Bla... Whatever...
