I've decided to support the Lions. A crap team I know but I used to
have a soft spot for them when Barry Sanders was
still playing. I asked my wife to buy a Sanders shirt
when she went to the States a few years back but she returned with
a Charlie Batch shirt instead. Doh!
Oh well, at least theres no relegation in the NfL.

Wow Colts were good today, Brees was poor as was most of the team,
especially their defensive backfield. Manning, Addai, Wayne and
Harrison will take some stopping, I also like Clark who was good
last year in playoffs.

I look forward to seeing Manning over a full season cos I dont
think I've ever seen a QB throw like he did yesterday.
The Saints rookie CB was sh*te.
I requested Marvin Harrison as one of my WR's in the
draft so hope I got him.

Lions beat Raiders 36-21 i can hardly believe it we are actually
1-0!! This will probably be our sole win of the season so i best
savour the moment.
Three for me, and two for them.

After about 6 or 7 seasons without watching an NFL game I
managed to watch 4 this week (probably due to no EPL games). Loved
every minute.
I noticed a few changes. Since when did NFC teams play
AFC teams outside the superbowl? What happened to Candlestick
Park? And when did Detroit become the best team in the
NFC north?
GO THE LIONS!!!!

The pack... of all the teams to throw away a game to, the dirty
pack. A Green and Gold team Farken.

Hammer Head, let's get one thing straight. The Lions are most
definately NOT the best team in the NFC North. Like i said this may
well be our only win of the season so live it up!!
Three for me, and two for them.

Oh. They used to be good. Keith Moon...no wait the other Moon?
Oh yeah Warren - was their QB. They had good
receivers too. And they had a chubby kiwi guy Dixon
playing for them. Hope its on ESPN.

The Cards let me down, i really thought ML would bring the goods
and come thru in Week 1.......how many injuries have ravaged the
league just quietly!
I bet Tiki Barber is wishing he could come back now.

Doubt it. The Lions are never on TV either. Haven't played MNF in

u know why they are never on TV????
Becoz they are consistently rubbish - Calvin Johnson should have pulled a "Eli Manning" and not gone with the team he was drafted to. Imagine CJ lining up in the Bengals or Steelers WR set.....a lot more exciting getting a pass from Big Ben or Carson Palmer than John "More Teams than Matt Carnihan" Kitna

Doesn't change the fact we're TOP OF THE DIVISION!!!!
Give Leinart a couple of seasons and I reckon he'll have the
goods. Alex Smith is damn good now after what sounds like an
average rookie season.

After 1 game? Hey the Lions wear the same colour as Man
City......TOP OF THE DIVISION (at one stage early on anyways)
hahahahaha come on HH!
Alex Smith has Battle and Vernon Davis as some good targets and Frank Gore is one of the best all around (running, catching, pass protection) running backs around......watch out for a big career from this kid. Hes worked hard on his release of the football in the offseason and changed his mechanics a little from last season.
How about LT being STOPPED all day by that Bears defense?

How about LT throwing a touch down and running in one too, and receiving for 50 yards.

he ran for under 100 yards tho, poor by his standards. And i think
you'll find LT throwing TDs isn't anything new.

He ran for 25 yards. Even Matt Leinart and Alex Smith both got more
than that.
Pats v Chargers on ESPN next Monday. Look forward to that
one.

The Pats will roll SD bigtime......look at how much time Brady had
in the pocket....even when he wasn't comin out of the Shotgun - MVP
season coming up for Brady perhaps?
And Randy Moss.....who outruns TRIPLE COVERAGE for a 40 yard TD?? Mr R. Moss does....thats who.

caught 9 passes for 183 yards and 1 TD.......he's back to his best

over 1200 yards receiving this year.

Easy - he'll go across the middle. Randy Moss is only interested in
highlight reels and looks good going deep but doesn't get into the
dirty work.
And TO can make the circus catches too, see the one hander for a TD against the Giants.
Oh, and I don't mind when he dances on the star in Texas stadium now

why go over the middle when u have Wes Welker to do that? T.O is
past it....yes a great circus catch.....but thats T.O - a circus
act, a 1 trick pony.......Moss is goin to be used in the running
attack on end-arounds and is a "TEAM" man nowadays.....T.O is all
about one person.....T.O......don't rate him, be suprised if he
lasts the seasons with the 'Boys

i'll be goin solo then, no one in this office could even come close
to figuring out what a weak side Linebacker is let alone the ins
and outs of a 3-4 defence and the flexibility it offers a team fond
of using a wide range of bliting schemes (see Blitzburgh
Steelers).
