About the Patriots spying scandal - I wonder if that means Romeo Crennel is a lousy couch also. No one ever brings that up. Let's talk about it.

Definitely had it coming. But you know how it is- the star and not the fungible backup QB is going to win that one.

Peterson is single handedly destroying the Chiefs. Now, I understand it's not hard to single handedly destroy the Chiefs. But he's still killing them.

Westbrook owners were saying this on one of the FF boards I read, and I don't get it. He's pulled the "sit all week and play Sunday" plenty of times throughout his career.

And the Jets get a TD right before the half for a 21-13 lead.

Roy Williams 91 yard TD

DeToxRox · 09-23-2007, 01:25 PM

35-21 with like 5 minutes to go in the first half.. Browns vs Bengals here we come

larrymcg421 · 09-23-2007, 01:25 PM

Holcomb held on to the ball for like 15 minutes there.

sterlingice · 09-23-2007, 01:26 PM

Dammit, McNabb decided to fumble in the 35-14 game just so Westbrook couldn't get a 3rd TD to tie him and Curtis for the game

Hey, don't worry about it. As I'm such a huge Patriots hater, I'm happy the refs missed that call. And the Chiefs can't beat anyone anyway.

Both of those replays were inexcuseable misses by the refs. They don't even have the excuse of live speed action to fall back on. The EPL suspended a ref for a week for missing a call in a game. The two main refs in charge of this should get at least that, if not more.

highfiveoh · 09-23-2007, 01:26 PM

Kelly Holcumb is horrible. Overthrows a for sure TD, then takes a sack to leave the Vikings out of FG position.

He made an amazing catch and fell hard on his back. They said it was a back injury and his return is "doubtful." Nothing further's been reported. Hopefully it's just a bruise.

Dammit. Just as I think my fantasy team is going to take a decent lead, Westbrook doesn't go in and Williams goes 91 back the other way to give The Premature Ghost of Beano Cook a 50-47 lead and we're not even halfway into some of the first games.

EDIT:
Him: Williams 30, Pittsburgh 10, three others 10
Me: Westbrook 30, Brady 17, two others 5

Never mind- I'm now back ahead 52-50

LOL. Then he can't even get the hail mary off. Should be 21-3 Minnesota. (ref blown call and Holcumb wide open miss) Instead it's 10-3 Vikings and the Chiefs have a punchers chance.

Damn you McNabb. You finally decide to show up once I put you on the bench.

Donovan McNabb 43 yard TD pass to Westbrook.

McNabb has 334 yards and 4 TD's. In the first half.

Honolulu_Blue · 09-23-2007, 01:36 PM

And now Ernie Sims is hurt. Not good times for the lowly Lions.

Jim G. · 09-23-2007, 01:36 PM

There goes Westbrook again. The Lions just aren't tackling today.

sterlingice · 09-23-2007, 01:37 PM

I'm starting him in the FOFC Werewolf league. I think I'm playing against saldana.

Jas_lov · 09-23-2007, 01:43 PM

And of course I'm facing the team that has McNabb this week. He already has 35 fantasy points at halftime! He's also got Addai and Driver who both have TDs. I have Kitna and Roy Williams, but Harrison and Gore are doing nothing. I've already lost one game where I scored over 100 points and it looks like this week will be more of the same.

sterlingice · 09-23-2007, 01:44 PM

Early games are overrated. The only later game being shown in non-HD is the Browns-Raiders game, which didn't sell out. That's the best game of the day.

Logan · 09-23-2007, 01:46 PM

Troy, Yahoo is saying that Peterson lost a fumble at one point in the 2nd quarter. But from what I can tell, it happened in the middle of a drive. Can you confirm?

I think that's the one that was reversed on the replay. Then he fumbled it away on the next play, iirc

On a separate note, I'm thinking I'm going to drop J.P. Losman. I have David Garrard and Drew Brees so I think I'm in good shape there.

Yeah, it was actually the play AFTER the replay. The got it right, his arm was down on the first fumble. On the very next play he drove forward and Allen ripped the ball out of his arms.

Vikings driving again to start the third quarter, but penalties are threatening the drive. Peterson continues to run wild though.

Eaglesfan27 · 09-23-2007, 01:55 PM

I just caught up on the DVR. This has been one of the most thrilling halves that I can remember since the Superbowl. I'm so glad to see McNabb responding this week.

DaddyTorgo · 09-23-2007, 01:58 PM

Pats offense is coming alive. I foresee another 38-? drubbing

larrymcg421 · 09-23-2007, 02:02 PM

Okay, record watch for the Eagles game...

Highest Completion %, Game: Vinny Testaverde 91.30% (McNabb 93.3%)
Most Yards Passing Game: Norm Van Brocklin 554 (McNabb 332, Kitna 314)
TD Passes in a Game: Several at 7 (McNabb 4)
Receiving Yards in a Game: Flipper Anderson 336 (Curtis 205, Williams 167)
TD Receptions in a Game: Shaw, Winslow, Rice with 5 (Curtis 3)
Yards from Scrimmage, Game: Flipper Anderson 336 (Westbrook 200)
Most Points, Game: Bears 73 (Eagles 42)
Most Combined Points, Game: 113 (Eagles and Lions 63)
Most yards gained, Game: LA Rams 735 (Philadelphia 473)
Most combined yards gained, Game: Rams-Yanks 1133 (Eagles-Lions 763)
Most combined yards passing, Game: Dolphins-Jets 884 (Eagles-Lions 617)

That last one seems certain to fall at this point. I'm rooting for Westbrook, though! These combined records can't be held by one-dimensional guys!

sterlingice · 09-23-2007, 02:03 PM
