What did we learn today? NFL week two.

[hebrewnational]

Carolina is pretty damn bad this year.

disagree with you. However, there chances of making the playoffs and/or winning the division will be TOUGH with the Falcons and Saints looking sharp.

 

[OccamsRazor]

NewO defense sucks like last year. Backdoor will be open all day when NewO lays big numbers.

 

[hebrewnational]

The Raiders aquisition of Richard Seymor and Greg Ellis are paying massive dividends on their defensive line. 2 offenses with pro-bowl running backs held to avg 47 yards rushing after 2 weeks.

Jamarcus Russel is officially a BUST.

Oakland should have kept Garcia and they wouldnt be sweating games out to the end and quite possibly could be 2-0.

 

[hebrewnational]

Steelers pass defense is below average, and that's being generous. If teams commit to throwing the ball 75% of the time or more against them, I think Pitt is in trouble (at least until Troy gets back).

I think steelers are in trouble with their running game, mainly due to their poor O-Line play.

 

[spidur94]

Mario Manningham looks like the real deal. Giants got a steal with this kid.....once he learned the playbook(only took a yr and half).

What do u guys think??

Top 4 teams in NFL(no particular order...IMO):

New Orleans (try and outscore us!)
Baltimore(solid on both sides of the ball)
NY Giants (if the young WR's step up..they will stay in the Superbowl mix)
Atlanta(gotta like Ryan...Gonzalez pick up HUGE)


Top 5th???: All could make be shuffled in or out(each have issues)

Jets, Dallas,San Diego, New England, Pitt

 

[HookEmHorns]

Oakland, Washington, Tennessee

UNDERS, UNDERS, UNDERS.

All defense, no offense, sub-par QBs (and that's me being nice)

 

[seanjohn007]

jest are another team that is going to be great for unders, atleast for the first couple weeks. i think everyone realizes by now that sanchez is going to be a stud in this league, but hell still make a couple mistakes early on. its ok though, because he has the best deffence in the league to back him up

Few things about Miami:

If behind late in a game they have little chance.

An experienced, veteran QB can expose their green secondary.

 

[bigdoofus2]

Same ole Colts. Peyton is still an elite QB with receiving injuries/changes and new coach. And the defense still can't stop the run to save their lives. A good running team with a decent secondary will debacle the Colts. Same ole, same ole.

 

[gynecologist]

yep, can't argue with any of that man..

Colts defense will perform better when Bob Sanders returns.

 

[sumday]

Yeah, took the words right out of my mouth. Indy still going to win games mostly because of Manning doing what he does. Same old shit like you said.

 

[lilauzzie]

Steelers field goal kicker sucks

omg bro, completely agree, i can handle losing money, but not when a highly paid professional who's task is to just put it threw and get the 3, misses twice

such a ****, oh well, pitt. now know to go for it on 4th down hopefully

 

[JimmyVegas]

You only have to have the ball 15 mins in a game to win the game

 

[Jumpman23]

Playing it safe. KC had the same situation, threw short of the endzone, and had the clock run out before they could get a FG. That 3 points was the difference.

That's KC...you have Phillip Rivers as your QB along with WR's who are 6'2"-6'5" and that can jump so you can easily throw a quick fade to the corner or if anything just throw it out of bounds. Just a bonehead play to kick it on 3rd down along with that last play to try and run it on the Ravens.

 

[gynecologist]

I'm going 2 create this thread every week...

 

[HAT]

JBengals should be 2-0

No team that gets shutout for 59+ minutes:

AT HOME....
In week 1 where they had a month+ to prepare...
Against last years #30 scoring defense....

....deserves to be 2-0. Try again.
