Dallas strolled down the field and punched it in from the 1 with a Marion Barber TD. So far so good, unless you're from Cleveland.

Wow, the Bills just DISMANTLE the Seahawks.
A number of crazy plays in this one - if you get the chance, you HAVE to see the Roscoe Parrish punt return for a TD, as he makes a number of sick moves to score. They also fake a field goal and the Hawks don't even cover the defensive end who was lined up wide - another easy six points. Great game for Bills fans.

So I made the right choice (so far) in starting Chambers as my WR3?

Sure. Any time a WR gets a TD that's great. I'm not so sure Rivers is going to do well early in the season. He looks horrible.

I thought the Bucs did a great job containing Bush...until that one play. All in all, the Bucs look okay, but Jeff Garcia is looking old...Galloway is looking old...Antonio Bryant is looking old...Warrick Dunn is looking...well, he still looks young, but he's not much of a factor these days. Derrick Brooks still looks good, except when he's hurt on the bench...and his replacement can't touch Reggie Bush to save his life (or in this case, in order to save the game). One sour grapes moment early in the game: The Saints receiver did make a "football move" when he caught the ball and braced for the ensuing hit that jarred the football loose, that would've been a touchdown...but those things happen, you can't review a judgement. Anyway, The Saints looked good today, especially the D-Line, congrats on the win. |

I noticed that too, but maybe that clock was inaccurate. I did think the pass interference was called unevenly. The penalty that set up the last Jets TD was a 50/50 call, but the Dolphins receivers weren't getting the benefit of calls in similar situations. I didn't like the offensive playcalling in this one. As I poisted earlier, what's the point of play action on 3rd and 11? Too many short passes throughout. We need to open up the passing game so our RB's will have some space.

The only problems are Chad hasn't got an arm, Ginn can't run routes, which leaves Fasano (who looked excellent today) or Greg 'Is This The Way To' Camarillo who are both possession type who don't stretch the field. Basically the passing game isn't going to threaten anyone - we need Ronnie and Ricky to open up the pass. Chad is as good a QB as we can get and is a good match for our receivers - if they aren't going to get downfield we need someone who generally is accurate and protects the ball (forget the last INT - may as well take a chance). I thought the interference call on Goodman was harsh as well, he seemed to be turned around and they were both pulling at each others arms.

The Bills did look good, but the Seahawks looked just horrible. No run blocking (go go revamped running game), no pass blocking (Hasslebeck got pounded on), no special teams (Plackemeier looked atrocious, and he could have tried to tackle Parrish but just stopped), and even the 1 FG Seattle got was a lame duck that barely went through. Combine that with Burleson (that's the top 4 receivers now) and Morris going down and Arizona fans should be excited. Hopefully Seattle can come home for the 2 games they have next and settle down. (Yes, I love my parentheses!) |

I'm annoyed that Brady got injured.
Not so much because of any games he'll miss, but because of all the myopic coverage the media is going to give us to eat. I might as well eat a bullet and spare myself the pain. And that was my opinion before everyone began analyzing and questioning whether it was a dirty play or not. I swear, I fee like an alien left on this earth sometimes.

So who were the people who said in the draft thread that the Falcons shouldn't pick a QB with their first rounder?

So, no Cleveland fans here today? Anyone?
Tony needs to just have a seat today. He's done alright and the game is just about in hand.

4th and 3, down 21 and the Browns kick the FG. Doesn't make much sense.

I don't know whats wrong with Cleveland today. I never expected them to win the game, but I hoped it would be close. The defense looks bad. Too many times a reciever has been wide open and they're not getting any pressure on the QB.

sorry, but what exactly about this post is dumb....every single sport that directv carries for every single season EXCEPT this football season has been a 'free preview' since the beginning of the existence of satellite TV. assuming that today would be free is the most logical thing imaginable...did you even have the slightest idea what the fuck you were talking about before you called me dumb? |

Cleveland fan here, the defense looks rather disappointing considering the recent additions to the line. The secondary looks completely horrible but has largely been ignored by management this offseason. We can only hope the offense clicks against Pittsburgh because with a bend but don't break defense (hopefully) there will be a lot of shootouts this year.

Dola doubly so since my QB is Brady and he was a big bust for me today. Turner won the week for me.

again, every single sport, for every single season, since 1996 has been a free preview for the first week...got that....MLB, NBA, and NHL are an entire WEEK of games to try to entice you to purchase the product....so in addition to raising the price of the Sunday Ticket to almost 300 bucks this season, they have taken away the free preview weekend and instead are offering single games at 45 dollars a game...again, i ask, do you even have directv or are you just talking out of your ass?...how about you just suck my balls instead of me paying for it [smiley of me giving cringer the finger /smiley] |

49ers are less than 2 minutes away from losing to the Cardinals at home.
Mike Nolan was wearing his suit today. At this point, it's like putting lipstick on Arno from Green Acres. I think the suit industry should protest Nolan for denigrating their clothing. I'm now calling Nolan the Suit Of Failure, or SOF. The Cardinals managed to have the ball for nearly the entire 4th quarter. Martz will help the offense, but turnovers were crucial. O'Sullivan threw a pick and fumbled, and Takeo Spikes fumbled a short kickoff. It's only the first game, but I get the feeling the only thing that could save SOFs job would be a 9-7 8-8 or 7-9 miracle division win in the NFC Worst.

*raises hands as well* I promise you' I'll be quite happy to be wrong. I'll already go out and say everything I've seen of Ryan (even excluding this game) suggests I was. He is looking to be worth a 3rd overall. He impresses me how hard he works, and really takes charge of the team even though he is a rook. He made a couple of real rookie throws today, and will make some big mistakes this season, but he seems a guy who will not let that phase him. I'm pretty excited to watch him develop. On the flip side, the Birds still need interior defensive line bad, bad, bad. It looks like this would be a solid offense, if there was a defense that could keep them in it. I just think they won't be able to stop anyone. |

Having DirecTV has nothing to do with this actually, the fact that you are crying because you feel entitled to something does. Being disappointed I could see, but outright anger and saying you hate the company is a little sad to me. The fact that they have given free previews in the past doesn't mean you are entitled to them for the rest of time though. They changed their mind, suck it up and live with it. My guess though, you won't cancel DirecTV, so even your anger over this is hollow much like your reasoning.

the fact that you dont know what the fuck you are talking about is much more significant as far as i am concerned. i seriously doubt i am the only person that has DTV that was expecting a free preview week of sunday ticket only to severely let down unexpectedly today....i would wager pretty much anything that there are several million of their customers that feel exactly the same was as i do, and also would agree that you are a dick
