Re: [NFL] Week 1 Games Discussion

The CB's are pretty good. Their press coverage was a bit "handsy" further down the field than I'd like, but they did a good job considering Claiborne is a rookie.
But Cruz had one drop where he was basically wide open and turned his head to face up-field before pulling the ball in. That was just careless.

Actually Romo is a PDG QB.

PDG?

Ah, that makes sense.

Romo is a pretty damn good QB according to the stats, yes.
But whenever I think about Romo I think about the season-ending or game-losing mistakes he's made in the past.

, was that him in that Papa John's commercial?

And speaking of commercials, I don't think I've ever seen Eli or Peyton Manning so much in commercials during a game. During every commercial break, at least one of them was in a commercial.

I wish I had the talent, and the money, but let's face it, they both look kind of goofy.

No problem here...I look kind of goofy too.
I'll take the money and talent any day, if my goofy looks have to go along with it .
Alright, enough out of me. Time for us old and not so famous losers to hit the sack.
Later, guys...

Cruz a 1 year wonder?

quote of the day:
Mike Tanier, Sports on Earth: “The Lions have absolutely no running backs (Kevin Smith will start on a bad ankle on Sunday), but they are deep with defensive tackles in need of image rehabilitation. There is only one solution: a Ndamukong Suh-Nick Fairley 'heavy jumbo' backfield. Suh was versatile enough to attempt an extra point as a rookie, so taking three or four handoffs per game, which is what the Lions’ running game is down to anyway, should be a breeze. Making Fairley learn to play fullback will limit the amount of time he can spend in normal society, which is better for all of us. The chance that he will forget himself and launch helmet-first into Matthew Stafford’s kneecap in the huddle, however, may be too great for Jim Schwartz to risk it. Suh and Fairley could also help Calvin Johnson avoid the Madden Curse, as evil spirits will see them and assume that someone overbooked.”

Lol.
Our defense of line may be the meanest in the NFL.
I'm cool with it because even on their worst days they are nice people in Detroit.

RG III is having an awesome day against the Saints. In fact, the Redskins have done something today they didn't do once all of last season; score 30 points.

So far today in 2 games, I saw a PI call made, even though the pass was caught.

How is that possible? If you caught the ball, how could there be interference? Interference would mean something that PREVENTS you from catching a ball you otherwise would've caught would it not?
