Well, the Eagles and Donovan McNabb actually played pretty well for 3 quarters! :hmm: Of course in typical Eagles fashion they almost blew it in the end, but hey I'll take it. I don't think the Bills are that great a squad considering they couldn't do much against a defense missing 3 pro bowlers in the secondary, but it'll get the birds on the right track. See what happens when you run the ball early and get ahead Mr. Reid? Big one against the Skins next week. Westbrook is my daddy.

Psssst

Yeah, you guys

All you NFL quarterbacks...

Yeah I'm talking to you!

Did you watch the game last night?

Did you take notes?

Cause Manning just put on a clinic to benefit you all.

:p

COLTS DOMINATE. MANNING 6 TDs in 3 QUARTERS. WOOOHOOOO!

I have this horrible feeling that Manning will end up being the next Dan Marino: A great QB who never wins the big one because the organization won't put a team around him.

Re: The NFL Thread 03-04
 

I think the Colts have the second best rated defense this year against some good offenses. They are dominating in all aspects of the game.

Re: Re: The NFL Thread 03-04
 

That was an awesome showing by Manning; however the Saints did have a lot of defensive starters out.

Re: Re: Re: The NFL Thread 03-04
 

That is a sentence fragment.

It should be : That was an awesome showing by Manning; however the Saints did have a lot of defensive starters out.

or : Although the Saints did have a lot of defensive starters out, that was an awesome showing by Manning.


:unsure:

Happy?

Re: Re: Re: Re: The NFL Thread 03-04
 

Very!

Re: Re: The NFL Thread 03-04
 

I stand by my initial statement.

My power rankings:

1. Indianapolis Colts
2. Kansas City Chiefs
3. Carolina Panthers
~~~ They beat the champs, then came off a bye and won a game they could have easily lost.
4. Tampa Bay Buccaneers
5. Tennessee Titans

Honorable Mention:
Denver, Seattle, Minnesota (They move up when their records say they've beaten top teams instead of bums)

Big games:
Denver v. Kansas City
~~~ Are the Broncos for real?
Miami v. NY Giants

Washington v. Phialdelphia
~~~ I don't like the way either team is playing, but this will determine a lot.
Indianapolis v. Tampa Bay
~~~ Mr. Dungy comes in with an improved team to face the one that didn't need him.

The Colts appear to be a dominating team (appearances may not last that long, ask Buffalo) right now, but we'll find out Monday night won't we?
How about them 49ers? Terrell Owens is mad and everyone hates him for it. His truth is just way too much for those guys it appears. Imagine if they lose to Detroit.

fine with me...I was merely commenting on the subject

Re: Re: Re: Re: The NFL Thread 03-04
 

I'm sorry, but why are you putting down my Dolphins?

I think the Fins will be dominating the AFC East all year. The are some good challenges comming our way (NY doesn't appear to be one of them, they are a good team but i doubt their offensive line can withstand Mia's Def.)

I know what Wanny is not all that great of a coach, but we have a team that can acually recover from his mistakes. (i'm praying we get a new coach)

As for other Teams.

Denver- Overrated. They've played teams that suck (Oakland, i don't know what happened to you)

Eagles-Dn't know whats wrong with ya McNabb, but your ****in up the team.

Patriots- A Sorta decent team who really hasn't gotten it together since their last super bowl run.

Falcons- Without Vick, there are no Falcons

Raiders- Great groups of players but they are just getting older and are not playing like when they are younger. Oakland is starting to remind me of an NFL retirement home.

Colts-I gotta give them props, this team is really kickin some ass right now. But i wanna see how they do against Tampa.

Buccaneers-They've been kickin ass but they can't get coky or they will have another Carolina incident

Vikings-This is a real team. Een without Culpepper they can win game very well. Watch out for these guys.

Cheifs- Very good Team but i want them to face a real challenge.

Ravens- The only good thing on that team is Jamal Lewis. Everything else is....meh

Texans- Beat Miami becuase of stupid plays and Miami was not connecting bt that was luck, as you can tell ;)

Chargers- Looks like another year of dissapointment

Redskins- Those skins are doing alright. Don't think they will last though.

Jets- Fire....Your....Coach!!!!!!

Giants- A team that has very good strengths but will probably make it to the playoffs but not all the way.

Saints- Same as Chargers

If i forgot one, well srry all i can think of ass of now.

Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: The NFL Thread 03-04
 

The 2003 vikings are the worst 4-0 team in the history of the NFL, and when they win next week they'll be the worst 5-0 team in the history of the NFL.

Real? Give me a break.

Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: The NFL Thread 03-04
 

Vikings may not be the best, but they are not the worst 4-0 team in the history of the NFL. It still takes a good team to pull off impressive wins, and they do have a good team.

Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: The NFL Thread 03-04
 

Denver is 4-0 without playing well...even in their 31-10 domination of Oakland they did not play a complete game with everyone in the game. Before you give me the "they almost lost to Detroit" arguement, realize that the game was an obvious trap, coming between two highly emotional and important games against divisional opponents. Although Denver hasn't played great, Jake Plummer has looked calm and much better than he did in Arizona, and Clinton Portis has been unstoppable in limited action.

I know I'm biased in making this statement, before you call me on that. But if you don't believe me, I'm thinking you will be at about 2:00 Mountain time on Sunday when the Kansas City Chiefs lick their wounds from loss 1 of their 2003-2004 season.
