NFL World 2010

Snowman,

Tell me about it. Stupid Special teams cost us 2 games now. I know we have a lot of injuries, but the rookies need to tackle when they are in the game for special Teams!

I didn't get to see any game besides the New Orleans/ Falcons Game.
and of course, THe Chargers/Seattle.

However, from the highlights, it seems like Denver did have some bad defensive play. You guys shouldn't have fired your D-Coordinator last year.

Chiefs are surprising, but I have a feeling they will lose momentum and lose a bunch of games afterward.
Niners are shit, with or without Frank Gore. He's playing terrible. omg

seahawks, cunt.

Mark Sanchez was great again tonight. I have been drinking. The Jets are seriously Super Bowl bound. Yes. Yes.

 

[Pittsey]

CJ Spiller came good for my fantasy team today.

As did Flacco and Bouldin...


And Mendenshal was super too.

 

[Ristol]

Shadows, I'm glancing over your picks for this past week. Seems like you lost a lot of games, partner.

 

[Shadows]

lol, I did! I got like 5 wrong?
i usually am only get 2-3 wrong. I'm used to picking good picks and winning a lot of $.
But with my break up, my school, work, stress, and all the trades going on in the league, it made it hard. haha

i'm sure i'll pick up as the season goes.

 

[Ristol]

Just keep picking the Jets and you've got one sure bet

 

[Pittsey]

I dropped Alex Smith for Eli Manning. I am now thinking this is a mistake...

Will Alex Smith do well this week with the new Offensive Co-ordinator?? I also have crabtree so hope so.

......^^ they play the same falcons team that ROMPEEEED them last year... i wouldn't be on the niners this week at all.
The new OC isn't really "new" he uses the same system that the older one did and was part of the coaching squad.

..and the falcons are amazing at home the last couple years...

 

[exrp765]

Here are my picks since im bored.
explanations only for the games that i actually know what im talking about.


San Francisco at Atlanta 1:00 PM FOX Tickets | Travel Georgia Dome
Atlanta to win big. They owned the niners last year when they were on fire and playing alot more inspired football. They still haven't found they're stride yet and Atlanta is a monster of a team at home.

Cincinnati at Cleveland 1:00 PM CBS Tickets | Travel Cleveland Browns Stadium

NY Jets at Buffalo 1:00 PM CBS Tickets | Travel Ralph Wilson Stadium
Jets either win big early, or stink it up like last year and have a close game. It is a division game and buffalo had them close the two games last season.

Seattle at St. Louis 1:00 PM FOX Tickets | Travel Edward Jones Dome
Dark horse team this year? They can and probably will top the worst division in football.

Denver at Tennessee 1:00 PM CBS Tickets | Travel LP Field

Detroit at Green Bay 1:00 PM FOX Tickets | Travel Lambeau Field
Detroits been very impressive the last couple weeks, i say they keep it somewhat close...

Baltimore at Pittsburgh 1:00 PM CBS Tickets | Travel Heinz Field
Baltimore hasn't hit theyre stride yet and rice is still not 100% The steelers have to good of a run game and defense to be ignored. They win a close one.

Carolina at New Orleans 1:00 PM FOX Tickets | Travel Superdome
NO in a close one. The Panthers need to run the ball to win this game, if they can do that succesfully than they can pull the upset. But i dont see it happening. Jimmy clausen in his second start against the saints doesn't look good.

Indianapolis at Jacksonville 4:05 PM CBS Tickets | Travel EverBank Field
Colts smash the jaguars on a yearly basis.

Houston at Oakland 4:05 PM CBS Tickets | Travel Oakland-Alameda County Coliseum

Washington at Philadelphia 4:15 PM FOX Tickets | Travel Lincoln Financial Field
Vick all day.
It seems like he's back for real. I see him throwing his first INT this season in this game but they're too many weapons on the philly offense. Andy Reid knows what to throw at McNabb to make him uncomfortable...the whole defensive coaching staff will be on Mcnabb's heels all game.

Arizona at San Diego 4:15 PM FOX Tickets | Travel Qualcomm Stadium

Chicago at NY Giants 8:20 PM NBC Tickets | Travel New Meadowlands Stadium

I dropped Alex Smith for Eli Manning. I am now thinking this is a mistake...

Will Alex Smith do well this week with the new Offensive Co-ordinator?? I also have crabtree so hope so.

I don't know how the fantasy stats translate, but Eli is having a solid year. A lot of interceptions, I know, but he's thrown for more yards than Tom Brady or Brett Favre. Plus he's facing the Bears this week. They defend the pass horribly. Eli could have a pretty big day. Alex Smith on the other hand--despite flashes of excellence here and there--is one of the worst quarterbacks in the NFL. I think you made the right call. I'm actually surprised Eli was available.

exrp, I agree with every one of your picks except the Giants game. I think they'll win. The Bears are not as good as they've been playing, and the Giants should be ready to go after that BS last game.

 

[exrp765]

^^ To me the Giants this season have done nothing bad really, they just haven't been spectacular in any aspect. Eli's playing well, the defense isn't like it used to be.
Something tell;s me Mike Martz + Jay Cutler r a match made in heaven, and they're letting Hester return punts again.....
he's a one man team when he returns kicks....

 

[Ristol]

Who's ready for this Eagles/Skins game? Kickoff in a few minutes. McNabb got a big ovation. I thought Philly fans were too retarded to do that. Nice job by them. Anyway, who wins?

I got the Skins.

 

[Ristol]

...And Michael Vick goes down. Yikes.

 

[Ristol]

...And I obviously switched my pick to the Skins when they were already up 14-0. Ha.

How bout them Jets. Yes, every week they win I'm going to post about it. 4 weeks in and zero INTs for Mr. Sanchez.

3-1 and Super Bowl bound.

 

[exrp765]

^^this week was a crazy one..
im so pissed Vick got hurt...

 

[Shadows]

That sux that Vick got hurt. He's the only reason why I watched the Eagles play. and well, Kolb sucks!

Nice to se LT having a good season. I knew he had it in him, just not as a Charger no more.

 

[Pittsey]

Fucking Manning. 2 points.

Flacco got 14 and Smith got 16. I may lose because of it. I would definately won if I'd played either of those 2.

 

[Ristol]

Yeah, I kind of steered you wrong there Pittsey. Then again you'd already dropped Alex Smith before I posted, so it wasn't all my fault.

At least I was right about the Giants winning. But I thought the game would be less of a horrible slog than it was. It was 3-0 halfway through the third. I had to turn it off.

And how about that hit on Vick? Bone-crusher.

 

[Shadows]

How long is Vick out?

It's been 28 years since a team has had the #1 Offense and #1 Defense through week 4. That team is my Chargers! Too bad we are 2-2 because of special teams play. I am glad we fixed that this last week though.

Update: Randy Moss (from the Patriots) is probably going to be traded to the Minessota Vikings by wednesday.
