Man Michael Crabtree is a beast, I would love it if the Fins draft him next year, but OLB and DB are bigger needs

Tony Romo got hurt. Out for 4 weeks. I'm predicting the Cowboys will really suck in his absence.

Hurr hurr. Giants, maybe, but the only reason the Titans are still undefeated is that they keep on getting pathetic matchups. I'd like to say Broncos for top tier (their offense would wipe the floor with the Titans), but the defense REALLY needs to get their act together...

Wow, Orlovsky ran out of the back of the end zone. They ended up losing 12-10 they would've forced overtime if it wasn't for that moron. This year marks Detroit's 51st anniversary of last time they won the NFL Championship. Oh, have you ever noticed that on Madden Detroit's "historic" teams are all like 9-7? Michigan is also doing well right now because of their great 13-10 loss to previously 1-4 Toledo! Thanks for the great recruiting Lloyd Carr! New England also got annihilated last night (this has been a bad week)

Lol, the Giants got too cocky. They finally let success get to their heads, they looked like the failing Giants of some parts of last year (obviously not the playoffs <_<). Burress' antics is case and point. They had that same apathetic aura as last year about them towards the end of the game.

The Chicago Bears ROYALLY screwed up on Sunday. 11 seconds from the end of the game and the Bears' punter makes the WORST kick I have ever seen (I started getting into football in 2004). They should have made a full kick; the Falcons would not have been close enough for a last second field goal had the punter not messed up that kick.

Aww well, my neighbour was dissapointed (he's from Chicago), but I sit at this desk estactic for the Falcon's win. :chuckle:

Yeah, I don't feel like making picks anymore but I'll just stick around to talk about whatever happens in the NFL.

And my Jets, WTF are you doing against the Raiders!? I know they're better than what their record says but you can do better than what you're doing now!

/angry fan rant even though they're in the first quarter

What we've learned in week 7:

- The Bengals and Lions will not win this year.
- Ever since the coaching change, the Rams look like the top contendor to win the NFC West.
- When Green Bay has all of their guys healthy, they are beasts.
- The Bears apparently have no defense (lol wut?), but they have special teams.
- The Panthers are back.
- Washington is no longer what they showed us in weeks 4 and 5.
- Tennessee could see themselves with a 14-2 season at this rate.
- Looking for a real contender in the AFC? Go to the Bills.
- Tom Cable, nuff said.

I couldn't believe that the Vikings/Bears game had that many points. Thought for sure it was going to be a defensive game.

Also, great win by the Packers :)

Lions lost... again. Well it was only by 7 so I can tell they're improving.

~In Detroit we don't cheer for Touchdowns, we cheer for First Downs~

(Patriots will win tonight)

Lol hillarious. I can't even think of a game on their schedule I could look at and claim they should be favorites and win. If anything I thought they'd beat Atlanta first game of the year. Atlanta's proven to be tougher than anticipated though.

This season sure has had alot of suprises though. The Patriots, Colts and Chargers aren't dominating, the cowboys have lost 3 straight after a strong 1st three games, Titans are undefeated, injuries taking a toll on several teams. It's tough to know what to expect. I guess the only thing that seems normal is a strong Steelers start.
 

OF 'til I OD

More vibes, please.

Lendale White singlehandedly got me a win in my FF league.
Word choice, my dear friend. It would be nigh impossible for one player to score enough points to singlehandedly win you the game. He'd need over 100+ points. Not to mention, the rest of your team would have to be benched and/or score zero points for your statement to hold any validity.

G Men baby

all the ****in way
Just as long as they don't play on Monday night. XD

Kyle Orton shows maturity week in and week out. It's great sign for Chicago, considering that the Bears could easily be 6-1, some could argue that they could be 7-0.

The battle for the NFC North just got a bit interesting. The Packers got some of their starters back (mainly in the offensive line), and now they showed an excellent display against the Colts. I'm pumped for our two meetings against the Pack! (look out Tennessee, you have a true competator coming to break your winning streak...)

This Monday Night Football game is embarassing.

Let's see, injured Broncos:
Jay Cutler, Champ Bailey, Selvin Young, Dre Bly, Tony Scheffler, Brandon Stokely.

Our starting RB, both starting CBs, our starting TE, our starting QB, and our starting slot WR.

Could it get any worse?

wow. I won my fantasy game because of Cassel. Didn't see that coming.

I had to pick up a QB because mine was on a bye, and I picked Cassel over Brad Johnson. Turned out to be a pretty good move.

I enjoyed the thrashing the Steelers gave Chad Ocho Cinco (its not even proper spanish wtf)
Better than saying "Ochenta y cinco" amirite?

Vikings lost, Colts lost, Pats won. Peterson falling even farther behind Portis in yards.. can't get much worse at this rate


Anyways, Picks for Week 8
Baltimore
Carolina
Tampa Bay
Washington
Buffalo
New England
New Orleans
New York Jets
Philly
Jacksonville
Houston
Pittsburgh
San Francisco
Tennessee

Yes...but at least the Redskins won lol. But honestly, I think that for Denver to be a contender in the AFC, their defense has to improve...and basically, losing Champ and Dre sucks right now because now two leaders in the secondary are gone. It could indeed get worse.

Cardinals over Panthers 27-13
Redskins over Lions 17-16 (Lions will threaten but once again find a way to lose)
Bills over Dolphins 30-16

Ouch! The shark doesn't attack this week. With the Monday night game left to go I'm 5-8. Diddn't get to watch or listen to any games due several things going on so I've got no imput on any games just yet.

Favre is clearly on the decline, he just throws passes up for grabs.

Anyway what a comeback by the Dolphins.

Wow Steelers. The over shot long snap that became a safety was THE most humiliating thing I have ever seen the Steelers do. :urg:
