Welcome to the forums Wiegraf. :)

The Chiefs/Broncos game will be really good. I also would have to say the Broncos will pull it out. But it will be close.

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

Wooooooooooo! Packers win! 35-13.

If we can beat the Chiefs next week... some great things may be starting.

Thank you Bond. :D

As far as the Broncos\Chiefs game goes...it's easier to run back a punt when the last two guys who have a shot at tackling you get taken out by an illegal block in the back. This may seem like I'm just mad that my team lost, but If you've seen the replay, you know what I'm talking about.

Ah, but what the hell. The good thing about this game is that it was a classic, and since they're divisional opponents we'll see another one, later this year.

But on a non-Broncos note, I have to say that it looks like Green Bay has turned it around--Seattle has a young athletic defense and Favre just shredded it. And Dallas, suprisingly, looks like a possible playoff contender in the up-for-grabs NFC East.

Well, no matter what happens, this looks like a very entertaining season.

I'm still not a believer in the Cowboys. Their only quality win came against the Giants who basically gave them that game anyway...I think the Eagles will knock them down a notch in the division as the Eagles try to climb back to the top themselves.

Re: The NFL Thread 03-04
 

I was really disappointed with the Eagles yesterday...they could have lost at the end of the game for the second week in a row. I guess it's the young secondary....I just hope things get better, they're coming back. I agree that they'll beat the Cowboys as well.

Re: The NFL Thread 03-04
 

Agreed, but they're still not as overated as the Vikings.

New Powah Rankings sometime this week.

Re: Re: The NFL Thread 03-04
 

Well, Im gonna come with my power rankings, for the top teams in the league..I am bored, so might as well bust these out.

1) Indianapolis Colts--Comeback win vs Tampa sealed it, although the call they won it on was bogus.
2) Tampa Bay Buccaneers--They still are one of the best teams despite 2 losses--expect them to come back hungry.
3) Kansas City Chiefs--Since they beat Denver "fair and square" (CLIP!) they take this spot, tho I think they'll have trouble in Green Bay.
4) Denver Broncos--The Vikings are overrated and the Broncos did nearly go into KC and win, so there you go. Denver will have tests tho, with Pittsburgh this week and Minnesota the next.
5) Carolina Panthers--Suprised? Dont be. This team can run the football, has an athletic defense, and is starting to really learn how to win. They're a tough draw for anyone.

the rest of the top 10:

6) Miami Dolphins
7) Minnesota Vikings
8) Tennessee Titans
9) Buffalo Bills
10) Philadelphia Eagles

Wow, that game last night was ridiculous! I don't care if the Bucs cry about that "leaping" penalty, they deserve to lose if they can't hold a 21 point lead with 4 minutes to go. I guess the vaunted D can only play 56 minutes...Manning and Harrison just picked them apart, great stuff.

And Wiegraf, just a quick question about your rankings...How do you have the Bills above the Eagles, when the Eagles just beat the Bills last week and the Bills can barely beat the Bengals? Just curious.

Re: The NFL Thread 03-04
 

OMG

That was one of the greatest games I've ever witnessed in sports. I can't believe that the Colts had the composure to remain calm and attack on all cyllinders when the TB defense started to get tired. Peyton definately showed that he can take on ANY defense in the NFL. Marvin Harrison made ME-Shawn Johnson look like a boob on national TV. Keyshawn trash talks Marvin in the first half, and by the time the game was coming to an end, Harrison had like 11 catches for 175+ yards and 2 TDs. Where was Meshawn? Sitting in the locker room with a boo-boo. Apparently Mike Doss gave him a horrible blow to the ovaries :lol:

All the Manning haters and doubters out there, a meal is on your way:



Eat it :p :lol:

5-0 baby...on top of the NFL and picking up steam...GO COLTS

kudos to
-Tony "Pure Class" Dungy
-Peyton "Touchdown" Manning
-"Starvin" Marvin Harrison
-The "DUNGY-eon" Defense
-Our "3-headed" backfield
-Reggie "Wheeled in another one" Wayne

GET CRUNKED.

Re: The NFL Thread 03-04
 

Well, the Bills did destroy the Pats, who killed the Eagles..and I was kinda going off of injuries. The Eagles were seriously banged up early and they're still having problems in the defensive secondary, which is normally rock solid for them. At the same time, at the time of the rankings I didnt know Moulds would be out for the Bills, which drops them out of the top 10. So sorry if you didnt understand my logic.

That's cool, as long as you can explain why your rank them as such, it doesn't matter to me...yeah, the Eagles still have a bunch of injurie problems. I think Vincent is coming back this week, and considering the Cowboys have pretty good receivers, that should help. I'll feel about 10 times better once Dawkins gets back inot the mix, he's gotta be our defensive MVP...I actually had an eerie dream last night that the Eagles lost 2-0 to the Cowboys, that would be disgusting.

Re: The NFL Thread 03-04
 

I'm doing this a little different this week, because it's becoming painfully obvious that there are actually very few good teams.

Level 1 teams
1)Kansas City
1a)Indy
2)Tampa Bay

Level 2 Teams
1)Tennessee
2)Carolina
3)Denver
4)Giants

Level 3 Teams
1)Seattle
2)Miami
3)Minnesota - *SIGH* I suppose I have to put them in here too. Despite the fact that they've beaten no one of significance, and will make the playoffs only because they play in the NFL's worst division. Hell, they play in the NFL's 9th best division, despite the noticeable handicap of there only being 8 divisions in the NFL. Yeah, I know they're 5-0, they've beaten the packers, the bears, the lions, the falcons and the niners. 7 wins between those 5 teams, and four of the seven came against the other members of that 5 team group, and two other wins came against the cardinals and raiders. Why don't we let the vikings play the Cardinals, Bengals, Chargers and Jaguars so they can be 9-0 and still no damn good. They don't suck per say, but they're no better than a 500 team, and a 500 team should not be in the power rankins, yet...
