2005 NFL Thread
 

Ah, the Week One recap:

Lesson learned from Thursday: If you don't double cover Randy Moss, you're going to get BURNED, no matter if you're the Patriots or the Packers.

Raven fans, I don't get how you have that good a defense but yet....oh wait, yeah I do: Kyle Boller sucks!!!!!

Let me repeat that:
Kyle Boller is TERRIBLE!

Did you guys see Antonio Gates catch the winning TD against the Cowboys? Uh, wait, that didn't happen! Martyball baby!

It's way too early to call Losman the real deal, but damn that was a good performance.

And finally, for at least a day or so, Saints fans can have some sense of normalcy, however small it is. I really hope they make the playoffs, but either way I believe they're doing an incredible, inspired job right now considering.

I am not a huge football fan, but I watched a lot of this game and I just thought I would add.... Good job Cowboys!!! :)

That last interception was pretty. :)

The Good: Giants won big, Chad Morton had a good debut. Plaxico was ok in his debut.

The Bad: Eli was still shaky and my fantasy team bit the big one. If I had just started Frerotte instead of Pennington or Delhomme I would have been ok.

Oh yeah, the ending to the Dolphins/Broncos game was probably the most pitiful thing I've ever seen. Jake Plummer's GOT TO GO!

The GIANTS defense got me 42 POINTS! in my Pike league. I came back and won thanks to them :)

The defense had a solid day; Pierce, Strahan and Wilson all were awesome yesterday.

Mother effin' Chiefs bitches...

...that is all.

(Yes I do realize they went 7-9 last year but it's a new year buddies!)

Yes, Cowboys. Now they will layeth the smackdown on the Redskins on next Monday.

Some pretty good predictions!

Especially after the way the Colts D played last night. Or wait. Was it the Colts D that was great or the Ravens offense that sucked?

Anyways, I say Atlanta goes all the way. I say that because Ron Mexico is the shit, and because if they win then they can play "HEEEEEEY YAAAAAA" and do fun touchdown dances.

I certainly hope the Patriots lose. Although my new favorite football commercial this year is the tom brady visa one with his lineman/metaphor protecting him during his date. " HAHAHAHAH NO"

That was hilarious!

My favorite is the Diet Pepsi one where the vending machine gets drafted. I laughed my ass off at that! :)

Naw, that was a funny one, but that RANDOM ass Burger King commerical where the BK guy intercepts Drew Bledsoe and does the dance in the end zone gets my vote.

Or when he catches Randy Moss' lateral from last year.

-It's only funny because of the old school brass music playing in the background.

The Burger King one is pretty funny, but I don't know. That burger king dude still creeps me out.


I haven't seen the Diet Pepsi one getting drafted but I certainly am looking forward to it.

Which Jake?

He's got to be one of the most inconsistant QB's in the league from week to week.

See, here's the thing. I think Jake needs to come on over next Sunday before the game and smoke some weed with my neighbor. Dude's a little stressed, or something. He and Ashley Lelie can get hiiiiigh together and get past whatever it was that made them suck this week.

my boys are back and your gonna be in trouble, hey nowwww hey nowww, da boys are back!

go cowboys!

Stan, I love how you pick the Chargers even when you razz them...;)

So my boys didn't win this week - just wait until next week! :D

I'll talk to Jim Soccamano, the Bronco's PR VP about that. I think Shannahan may be willing to try just about anything.

Just kidding, of course.

If you had McNair as your QB and wanted to ditch him...who would you pick? You're choosing b/w Bledsoe and Frerotte.

Gus Frerote and Kyle Ortan are the shiznits!

I don't care how they do wins wise, as long as LT gets me them fantasy points!

To think, my team was autopicked because ESPN never puts up Pacific time or indicates when it's EST, and I ended up with Tom Brady AND LT.

Damn, if I were playing for money....

So, who's getting benched first?

Kyle Boller
Joey Harrington
David Carr
Patrick Ramsey

And, who's getting fired first?

Mike Martz
Mike Sherman
Mike Tice
Mike Mularkey
Mike Shannahan
Mike Nolan

Firing Mike Shanahan would be stupid.

That was mostly for the recurring "Mike" theme

It should go like this:

1) Martz (Worst coach in NFL)
2) Tice
3) Sherman
4) Mularkey
5) Shannahan
6) Nolan

Martz is the worst coach in the NFL and he's wasted the talented Rams team.

Anyhow, Shanahan hasn't done a thing since Elway retired. He should go too.

Damn, Bill and Tom don't make it any easier for me to enjoy these wins, always waiting till the last play to win.

GO BRONCOS!!!

You forgot Mike Holmgren..............

My Chefs are not making me happy right now!:(

Yea, it looks like they're trying to be football players instead of making you food ;)

Well, I could have told them that THAT would never work!:p

The following is an important Public Service Announcement brought to you by the City of Denver and the letter "W.":






CHIEFS SUCK!!!! CHIEFS SUCK!!!!

KANSAS CITY LOSES!!!!

GO BRONCOS GO!!!! GO BRONCOS GO!!!!






Thank you for your time.

:( Boo hoo!

I can't believe it took all this time for Trent Green to get his first TD of the season!

LOL

Sounds a lot like the PSA I gave after we beat the Falcons a couple of weeks ago......

Yea, you better go talk to our boys. I was close to smashing my ginormous tv last night because of those busters.

Hi.

jets are done for the season!

So, they won without Lawyer Milloy, they won without Ty Law....

But there's NO WAY they're winning THREE IN A ROW without their Defensive and locker room leader....

I am so sad to see Rodney out for the season, but I'm curious as to how this next game will go (I'm hoping for the best, but I think it's going to be a pretty good game regardless!)
