SF also made the Jets look like a college team last week....

True, lets face it though, the Jets just plain suck in every way. The Bills are not far behind, I feel sorry for the fans and owner who shelled out big $$ to upgrade the D and got squat in return, their offense can be decent but now must think they have to score on every possession..

What the hell was up with SD leaving in that tackle limping around on left side? Don't know his name, but he had half a leg to hobble around one in a sad attempt to block.

Yea, the NO D lineman just went around him in 1/2 second, should have taken himself out at that point..

New Study Finds Majority Of Bullshit Calls Go To Other Team

http://www.theonion.com/articles/new-study-finds-majority-of-bullshit-calls-go-to-o,29816/

PITTSBURGH—According to a study published Friday in the Journal Of Quantitative Analysis In Sports, an overwhelming majority of bullshit rulings made by NFL officials go in favor of the opposing team. “The data in our findings conclusively proved that most horseshit calls not only go to the other team, but also occur very late in games,” said lead researcher Dr. Alexander Ferguson, a statistical analyst at Carnegie Mellon University. “In addition, we found that of the officials who make dumbass calls, 58 percent don’t know what the hell they’re doing out there, 23 percent must be watching a completely different goddamn game, and a further 29 percent are just totally fucking blind.” The study, which confirmed that the majority of bullshit calls are game-changing decisions, also found that rulings that help your team are simply lucky breaks that would not have affected the ultimate outcome of the game anyway.

it was Jarrette Gaither, did he twist his ankle or something?

jackie battle was named the starter, that why he got the 1st 4 carries, and afterward, mathews took over.

I guess the actual question I'm asking is why is Jackie Battle named the starter? To show up Mathews because he's fumbled again? This is why Norv Turner fails

to fuck with FF owners lol. Why the fuck did Norv leave Gaither in there when he tweaked his ankle and he was limping.

The chargers need some good corners, since jammers and carson are not that good corners. Battle did not split carries with Mathews at all after the 1st four carries.

Only gonna be 2 upsets this week (Rams over Cards which isn't much of an upset and Indy over GB), which is pretty strange for the NFL. I guess Miami over Cincinnati would be considered an upset also so make it 3. I think Washington would have beat Atlanta if RGIII didn't get knocked out of the game.

Cam Newton totally sucks in all close games. I would like to see some stats on this like what his record is with his team trailing by a touchdown or less in the 4th quarter or what his record is in games decided by 7 points or less. The Panthers always lose close games.

Including last year and this year, when the Panthers are trailing by between 1 and 7 points going into the fourth quarter, they are 1-5. That's much worse than the overall record for all teams in that situation during that same time period, which is 53-72.

The sad realization of a Titans fan today? We should have sucked for Luck last year.

It wasn't as much as luck, as Reggie Wayne having a career day, and I swear breaking the laws of physics on some of those catches.

Damn wish he was on my Fantasy team yesterday...

That was the Packers. The Titans played the Vikings yesterday. Totally unsurprising result there, Chris Johnson sucked as usual, Hasselbeck couldn't pass, and their defense couldn't stop Percy Harvin.

Never seen an RB (Chris Johnson) go from best RB in the league to worst in the league, let alone so quickly, his stats are just laughable. Everyone thought he was just in a rut for a while but obviously that's not the case.

Shaun Alexander and Larry Johnson? At least they need to be runners up.

Shaun Alexander and L. Tomlinson had the Madden Curse for an excuse. Don't know what happened to L.Johnson. What also holds true is huge money contract for RB is as damning as the Madden Curse.
