Patriots looked really good blowing out the Bengals. Defense looks fast, opportunistic, and aggressive. Cincy effectively got 21 garbage time points in the 2nd half capitalizing on the D's lack of rest thanks to a Pats pick-6 TD and 2nd half KO return TD. Fred Taylor looks like he's in his Jacksonville form and the 2 rookie TE's look like a very nice addition to Brady's arsenal.

this is the first year i've missed a bills home opener in 5 years and all i can say is thank god i moved.

1) got to actually watch the giants game instead of having to cross my fingers and hope they dont black it out.
2) they [bills] looked absolutely pathetic. as much drinking as i'd do in tailgating, nothing could have made those last 2 minutes bearable to watch.
3) did not waste another 300+ on seasons for something to do on a sunday

The Alex Smith experiment is failing out in San Francisco...yet again...

I gotta say, after that awful first quarter and a half, I'm STUNNED at how good the Seahawks look right now. Granted, it's probably because of how bad the Niners have been, but still. I didn't think they'd have this in them this year, to jump on a team and not relent.

QB play is THIS important in the NFL (listening Jet fans ), this game shows it BIG time....
seems to me the 49ers spent too much time believing all their hype and not living up to iy

not to mention Singletary went a lil loopy with 4th down go for its......

You can thank me, I'm a curse to any team defense I draft in the NJDevs league. Last year it was Pittsburgh, who had their one bad year in like the last decade...the year before it was Minnesota, it was Chicago one year. All highly rated and all went splat on me. That's why I stayed the hell away from picking the Jets, especially when Revis was still holding out.

And THAT is why they call them SURVIVOR pools.... holy sh!t Arizona way to ugly out a goddamn win!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[MDPucks]

Going back to last year's Week 16 when they mailed it in against the Jets the Colts have gone 2-7 their last 9 games including last year's playoffs, this year's preseason, and Week 1. See what happens when you piss off the football gods Indianapolis?!?

Glad to see Jason Ginger picked up where he left off: Unnecessary play calls and inability to finish.

he makes me wish Herm Edwards was our OC... I swear 6000 rushing attempts a season would be better then THIS

NO flow or sense of what's working.... again.....

[Martyisth3b3st]

Alex Barron is killing me, too. And tashard choice shouldn't see the ball the rest of the game

SWEET WONDERFUL ENDZONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

*Shrug* Every year the team management and coaching staff tries to convince us that we can go into the season with a questionable QB or a non-existent QB and guess what? I always fall for it. Defense and our running game is going to win us 12 games...but it doesn't happen. And then I have to pathetically point to the Raiders to compensate.

Last year we sucked but made it seem like we had a playoff shot...So we didn't get in and we didn't get a good draft pick. Of course we probably would have traded down a drafted another "Rashaun Woods" anyway.

It's sad because soon Gore's and Davis's best years will be behind them and they will have never had even just a good QB. And any Niner fan knows just how good those two players are and could be.

[nmigliore]

Wow, final play will decide this game. This has been a great game to watch from a neutral standpoint.

Holding on the offense... game over. Wow.

If Alex Barron is on the team tomorrow, I will punt a puppy.

[Martyisth3b3st]

Welp, at least I'm at college, so I can drink until tomorrow morning to forget this sh!t.

They flashed up a STAT on the broadcast I was watching at work. It said Alex Barron is the second most penalized dude in the league. Second only to Flozell "offsides" Adams.

Sooooooooo happy the boys went out and snagged this beauty.


Cowboys pulled the same horsesh!t they did last year when they lost to the Skins.

They went for the big play over and over instead of marching down the field against the Prevent D.

Huh? They drove down beautifully. They won the game if Barron made the block.

THAT was NOT driving beautifully! THAT was a couple catches out of many many attempts.

They looked long and sidelines every down when they coulda been hitting the short guy in the middle of the field and taken away chunks of yardage at a time. 3 Timeouts!?! Piss poor clock management too.

THIS TEAM NEEDS AN ENIMA!!

They made penalty after penalty to move backwards and put themselves in a hole. And the O line was disgraceful as far as protection was concerned. Romo looked comical dancing around while his linemen held.

I don't like what Barron did AT ALL, but there were PLENTY of disgusting mistakes made by MANY members of this team ALLLLLL night.

I wonder if the play calling was all Garrett or if Phillips had anything to do with the choice of plays to end the game.

And Choice shoulda been on the pine the entire second half after coughing that ball up!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Arrrrgh!!!

[NJDevs4978]

As amused as I was by the end of the Dallas game I'm even more amused by the events in Philly yesterday. That fanbase wanted McNabb gone for ten years, and what happens when they finally get their wish? They start booing every little thing and deserted Kolb quicker than rats jumping off a sinking ship. It's even more amusing that Vick looked good enough to start a QB contreversy - until he gets the job, then he'll get booed. Couldn't happen to a better fanbase

To top that off, McNabb wins Week 1 on National TV with an inferior, contreversy-ridden team. He must have been laughing all the way home from FedEx.

I'm hearing so much buzz about this Calvin Johnson play but have yet to see the replay.

I finally saw it late last night myself, oh my god...there's no way in layman's terms that wasn't a catch. This league has so many stupid technicalities it makes you wonder who writes the rule book, the same guy who writes the golf bylaws (where a bad patch of grass counts as a 'bunker')?!
