Sounds odd to me. As a Packer fan I will take it though.

JonInMiddleGA · 09-16-2007, 01:33 PM

Good news: I picked up Joe Jurevicius as a fantasy FA for one of my teams
Bad news: He's on my bench

Cringer · 09-16-2007, 01:36 PM

Brylan Edwards, if I spelled his name correctly, just made a nice catch on his back after the ball was tipped.

And now Winslow just caught a TD pass! GO Browns, very nice! They take the lead. 27-21.

Cringer · 09-16-2007, 01:37 PM

3 straight TD drives for the Browns, and 2 FG drives before that. 5 scoring drives in a row. Guess we won't hear chants for Brady Quinn today.

Raiders Army · 09-16-2007, 01:45 PM

Through 6 quarters, Lee Evans has gotten me 4 points.

Rizon · 09-16-2007, 01:45 PM

I'm thinking about trying out for a spot on the Bengals defense. Looks like they need a little help.

Raiders Army · 09-16-2007, 01:51 PM

Need to take a nap so I stay awake for the 2 PM games (MDT).

Cringer · 09-16-2007, 01:53 PM

I love my soon to be 8 yer old daughter. She is currently 2000 miles away with my wife in Washington state visiting my family. She just called asking for an update on the game and having me tell her what is happening as we are on the phone, as she stands there wearing her Favre jersey.

The funny thing though is she asked me, "Whats the number?" I had no idea what she was talking about and asked if she meant the score, she did.

And Packers take the lead with her on the phone, TD to Bubba Franks. Woo!

From experience, Evans is hit or miss. He'll go two straight games with 1 or 2 points and then go off for over 20 the next week. It is completely unpredictible which will be the great week.

Rizon · 09-16-2007, 01:54 PM

Frank Gore is a machine.

Northwood_DK · 09-16-2007, 01:55 PM

So Frank Gore goes 43yds on a 4 and 1 at midfield?

Nice call by the 9ers.

ISiddiqui · 09-16-2007, 01:56 PM

Wow... the Falcons actually look like a real team so far.

Just an amazing run.

ISiddiqui · 09-16-2007, 01:59 PM

WOW... Falcons kicker needs to be cut... NOW.

Cringer · 09-16-2007, 02:01 PM

Stinking stink of stink! Packers once again score a TD only to have the Giants make their defense look like poo on the next drive. Hopefully they can hold them to a FG.

Giants offense is pretty tough, Eli is a pretty good QB now I would say.

Northwood_DK · 09-16-2007, 02:01 PM

Atlanta is 0 for 2 on FGs today. Just wait and see. Next week Morten Andersen will be back.

RETURN OF THE AINT'S

ISiddiqui · 09-16-2007, 02:10 PM

Well, there goes the momentum changer. Falcons missing a short FG, and Jacksonville drives down the field and takes the lead 10-7.

Get prepared for a 1 yard Dunn run up the middle on first down, 5 yard pass from Harrington on 2nd down, and sack on 3rd down. Punt.

RendeR · 09-16-2007, 02:16 PM

Paging the Cincinnati bengals, Cincinnati bengals, please report to Cleveland Stadium, your Offense is waiting for your defense to arrive.....

Cringer · 09-16-2007, 02:25 PM

Packers offense is on fire! I love the Giants defense!!!

28-13 Packers, thanks to another turnover created by special teams.

You can't stop the Browns explosive offense. You can only hope to contain them.

Northwood_DK · 09-16-2007, 02:32 PM

49ers just got lucky and recovered a punt deep in Rams territory

Desmond · 09-16-2007, 02:32 PM

I'm glad my NBC affiliate is sticking with the riveting Steelers/Bills struggle instead of switching to that boring Bengals/Browns game. I need to write them a thank you letter.

Makes me wonder. Has anybody ever been cut mid-game? And I don't mean the decision to cut them on Monday was made on Sunday, I mean actually "clean out your locker, you don't work here anymore".

I'm thinking in the early days of the league that almost had to have happened at least once.

I want to see the Steelers do good.

Desmond · 09-16-2007, 02:35 PM

I have no problem with them doing good, it's the seeing part that is annoying me.

JonInMiddleGA · 09-16-2007, 02:35 PM

Jags extend their lead to 13-7 over Atlanta with 3:39 left.
So now it's all up to Joey Harrington

I wonder where that phrase would rank on the list of most frightening in the English language?

Icy · 09-16-2007, 02:36 PM

The Titans are playing really well after a bad start, they have the Colts against the ropes.

Last week... it's all up to Kyle Boller. Oh, there's a pass off his back foot. And another... and another...

MikeVic · 09-16-2007, 02:39 PM

Bryant McFadden big stick!! lol. I know what it means, but sounds funny anyway.

MikeVic · 09-16-2007, 02:40 PM

I don't have the Texans on anywhere, but they could be a decent team this year eh? That's a pretty tough division.

It's because they are the Green Bay Packers South. They have Ahan Green at RB, Flanigan at C, and Mike Sherman as an offensive assistant. They even copied the Packers by trading for an Atlanta backup QB to be their starter.

Interesting comparison.
Did you know that over their careers, Boller has a higher QB rating, better TD/INT ratio, and slightly better completion % and ypc average than Harrington?

Now compare the Lions teams surrounding harrington to the Ravens teams surrounding Boller...

Wow, that makes sense now....

I like this RB Wynn for the Packers. Makes some plays.

Wynn with a 38 yard TD run on a 3rd and 6 play. SOme jukin' and jivin' there. I like the kid. 35-13, Packers rolling now.

Cringer · 09-16-2007, 02:51 PM

And Eli Manning goes to the bench with the Packers in control. Lorenzen is in.

Northwood_DK · 09-16-2007, 02:51 PM

Just two more stops by the 49ers and the got another undeserved win.

Rizon · 09-16-2007, 02:53 PM

roffle, Cleveland just taking it to the Bungals.

Hey, he made the comparison, so I looked at the numbers out of curiosity. They were actually closer than I expected, just that they all skew slightly in favor of Boller.

Meanwhile, the Falcons would probably have just as good a chance of winning by direct snapping the ball to Norwood as they do with Harrington at QB. They can't run block, they can't pass block, their receivers wouldn't frighten a high school secondary, and the defense apparently doesn't have much heart considering they just let Jax run off an 8 minute drive that basically sealed the game. And then there's the not-so-special special teams.

I may have to revise my prediction of 4-12, might have gone a little high with that.

Eaglesfan27 · 09-16-2007, 02:53 PM

Heck of a throw by Anderson. Brady Quinn could be sitting all year.

MikeVic · 09-16-2007, 02:54 PM

I want them to get to 50 so badly. I don't remember a time seeing 50 points on the board. Maybe that one Super Bowl with the 49ers, but I was so young back then, and didn't really follow football.

The Bengals should not be punting at all anymore.

Eaglesfan27 · 09-16-2007, 02:54 PM

Titans with a big stop and Tennessee has a chance to win it with 1:38 to go.

Rizon · 09-16-2007, 02:55 PM

Down goes STL

Good thing they did this. Lorenzen is getting the shit kicked out of him, and ended up hurt.

Anthony Wright in at QB for the Giants now.

I can't understand why the Bengals passed up 4th and 1 and 4th and 2 in Cleveland territory in a shootout.

Cringer · 09-16-2007, 02:57 PM

Vince Young with a pretty first down run. The guy doesn't even look like he is moving much when he runs.
