Rob .. Aren't you pumped we got Buck and Aikman to announce?

It just shows Detroit gets some respect. No more Tim Green and Kurt Menfee for us!

Jets are the late game and Giants are on Monday night, so we'll get at least one good game for a change!

New England @ Carolina on CBS... not sure if FOX is showing a game yet.

edit: bleh... San Fran @ Philly on FOX

Yes. Detroit area gets Colts/Jag as our CBS game.

Too bad our only afternoon game is Green Bay vs Cleveland. Hopefully the Bray plays more for our benefit.

Brady looks a bit shaky against Carolina. This could be a better game than anticipated.

You didn't expect a good game? These are the two teams that many people believe will be playing Superbowl Sunday.

So the Bills wearing these uniforms all year? I thought it was just a one week thing. Cool, I like them.

I don't see it. The Panthers have a weak offensive line, questions at running back, and a very suspect secondary. Add the Jenkins injury, and I was figuring they'd be a .500 team.

Taylor fakes a pitch to Matt Jones, and then does it later on the run for a fumble. Lucky Jones recovered it. Looks like a designed play though, Fred Taylor was looking for the pitch the whole time.

Getting tricky with Matt Jones. maybe one of my favortie players right now in the league.

HUGE play by Troy Brown just now. Caught a pass in the flat and no-one was near him. Must have been a 70 yard gain before being knocked out at the 1.

edit: yeah, 71 yard play.

He was running his ass off. Nice blown coverage.

I think he is going to be what "Slash" should have been....a great reciever with add threats.

Stupid Sunday Ticket isn't tuning in any of the FOX games, including the Lions. Not only that, but DirecTV won't answer their phones.

I honestly hope your right, but I think you might be under-estimating them a bit.

Proehl makes a good catch, which makes me think...anyone see the Fox erport on how Proehl was talked out of retiring by Smith? Smith says he is a great player/coach for him. He went so far as begging Proehl's wife to talk gim into staying.

He pushed the DB back a little. Looks like flag material to me unfortunetly.

Eh, even I'll admit that was a weak call.

However, just got themselves a free first on an equally shitty call. Piss.

I'd take the first on the 44 yard gain over the first on a 5 yard gain.

I have seen guys called for less, and guys do more and not get called. So who knows I guess.

When he put that hand back though, you can see there was some force to it as the DB slowed and went back a touch. I dunno....

Nice phantom TD in Carolina.

And since no one has mentioned these games....

Tennessee up 10-0 on Baltimore.

Bills-Bucs = 0-0

Jags-Colts = 0-0

Steelers up 17-0 already on Houston
