I don't even care. I'm just happy they finally won one damned game. I'm saving this one on my Tivo.

Did you see Peterman (or whoever) crying his eyes out?

Big Fo · 09-27-2009, 04:03 PM

I'm glad Detroit won, both of my parents are from Michigan and I've had a soft spot for them since I was a kid and they had Barry Sanders. But what is up with those stuffed lions people are wearing on their heads? Those almost make cheeseheads look cool. Almost.

Cringer · 09-27-2009, 04:04 PM

Packers were crap today for most of the game, they won because it was the Rams who were just as crappy in their own special way (and had Boller at QB on top of it). Unless a miracle happens to our offensive line, this team will not win the division and Rodgers may die next week in Minnesota or sometime shortly after. The defense is inconsistent as well, good at getting turnovers but good at giving up some running yardage and yardage on broken plays.

I will give the Vikings the division now. Better them then the Bears I guess. At least they have Favre and Longwell, who I can't totally dislike.

What happened to the Bills bad pass defense? I want my weekly Brees fireworks!

No! Keep him away from Marino's record.

I'm an old school guy so I love everything AFL throwback-related. Can't wait for the Chiefs to roll out their Texans gear.

Those glow-in-the-dark Seahawk disasters, however, belong at the bottom of a landfill in New Mexico.

Someone should go back to the many pages of the "I hate Favre" thread and see who looks like douche bags now. I suspect many.

And I hope someone remembers this post if Favre crashes and burns later in the season like he did last year.

MrDNA · 09-27-2009, 04:29 PM

Did Favre make more than the one good throw which the receiver made an amazing catch on?

Sun Tzu · 09-27-2009, 04:33 PM

Serously? You're giving Favre credit for that last second TD? With a terribly out of position DB in combination with what will probably be the best acrobatic catch of the year by the WR? The pass was terribly overthrown too, as the entire corner of the endzone was left open by Mark Roman (said DB). Seriously now.

spleen1015 · 09-27-2009, 04:33 PM

I think this is all a trick by Favre. He threw several crappy throws today just so that he could do that at the end.

They went 80 yards in 1:29...surely Favre gets credit for that.

Also he was taking a lot of checkdowns to Chester Taylor and shorter throws over the middle in situations where many of us would have expected him to force bad long balls more often than not, his decision making seemed quite sound. I thought he had a solid game.

Meh, I would expect any QB who is a backup or better in the NFL to be able to hit wideouts with a 7-10 yard cushion. The deciding factors of the game were the Kickoff return for a TD, the dropped sure pick six by Dre Bly with 2 minutes left, and Mark Roman not quite understanding what "deep quarters" coverage means.

larrymcg421 · 09-27-2009, 04:41 PM

Favre should get credit for that. I simply think it's out of line to call people "douches" because of an amazing play in week 3, especially in light of how last year went.

Nope. I watched the last few minutes online... I'll see the full game tonight on NFL Rewind (paid $50 to watch these games & haven't missed a play yet!)

Pennington hurt. Henne is in now for the Fins.

MikeVic · 09-27-2009, 04:58 PM

Sweed is useless!!!

larrymcg421 · 09-27-2009, 05:01 PM

Dolphins up 6-3, but wasting opportunities. It should be 17-3.

DaddyTorgo · 09-27-2009, 05:02 PM

i think this might mark the end of the Galloway-experiment in NE. He just can't seem to get on the same page as Brady (that being said Brady had some bad misses today too). Pats are looking awful in the Red Zone - as I said last week I wonder how much of that is the absence of Welker...

Fred Taylor also needs to be the starting RB. The guy is a monster - he was strong last week when they ran him against the Jets and he was huge today (albeit against an Atlanta D that is soft on the run)

Swaggs · 09-27-2009, 05:03 PM

Wallace seems to have already moved ahead of Sweed as the #3 receiver. Sweed needs to get his crap together soon, or he is going to end up behind Shaun McDonald, too. It's a shame, Sweed reminds me a lot of Nate Washington during his first couple of seasons, but Washington didn't have near the expectations that Sweed does as a high pick.

The challenge with Taylor has always been keeping him alive for a full season. Pats would be wise to use him sparingly until (assuming they make it) the playoffs.

I suppose that's true. Fortunately they seem to maybe have enough depth at RB...

larrymcg421 · 09-27-2009, 05:08 PM

Dolphins down 10-6, but as we learned last week, the only thing that matters is time of possession, and I think they're still winning that. I hope they don't get an 80 yard TD because that would be bad.

Swaggs · 09-27-2009, 05:10 PM

Any Pat White sightings in the Dolphins' game?

mauchow · 09-27-2009, 05:11 PM

The Vikings could have easily blown the 9ers out if it weren't for the blocked field goal returned for a touchdown with no time remaining in the first half. I held my ground and said the Vikes would pull out a win and they did so in amazing fashion.

larrymcg421 · 09-27-2009, 05:12 PM

He's been sighted on the sideline.

larrymcg421 · 09-27-2009, 05:18 PM

Henne looks awful.

larrymcg421 · 09-27-2009, 05:28 PM

Another drop for Ginn.

Schmidty · 09-27-2009, 05:31 PM

Holy crap, Seattle's green uniforms are AWFUL. They look like a mixture between an Arena team, and an XFL reject.

larrymcg421 · 09-27-2009, 05:32 PM

Henne tries to throw a forward pass when he's 5 yards past the line of scrimmage.

larrymcg421 · 09-27-2009, 05:50 PM

Holy shit Henne is bad. He looks so uncomfortable dropping back. It looks like he's going to trip over himself every time.

Neuqua · 09-27-2009, 06:04 PM

Is Terrell Owens not playing?

Eaglesfan27 · 09-27-2009, 06:06 PM

Glad to see Palmer is really back. Nice job leading that comeback drive against the Steelers (and a heck of a play by Leonard.)

MikeVic · 09-27-2009, 06:09 PM

What a bad feeling, losing to the Bengals.

larrymcg421 · 09-27-2009, 06:09 PM

Bengals finish off a terrific drive with a TD to go up 23-20, pissing off the fans (who were laughing at me earlier) at this Steelers bar I've been watching the game at, somewhat calming my mood.

The 49ers could have easily blown out the Vikes if it weren't for the kickoff returned for a TD and a miracle last second hail mary.

The 49ers had one crazy bounce go their way that resulted in a TD. The Vikes had two. Next time you watch the game take off your purple sunglasses, you might see two teams playing.

Breaks his streak of 185 games with a reception.
