I think the game of the day is the Bears-Packers game due to it being the biggest battle within the division; however, the official game of the week will be the Redskins-Giants game. You know Buck and Aikman will be there.

Methinks I will be rooting for the Ravens and Bungles!!!

An 0-2 start for the rest of the division, would set things up even more nicely for tomorrow night!!!

Matt Prater’s field goal has given the Broncos a 3-0 lead over the Bengals heading into halftime.

As I type, Brian Westbrook has given the Eagles a 31-7 lead with some time still remaining in the second quarter.

In college football, you root for your conference in non-conference play to make your conference look good. I do not, however, root for the Chiefs, Broncos or Chargers to make the division “look good” because those games still count toward a division title.

okay

I guarantee three wins for oakland this year, Cincy and the two against Denver. Both teams are incredibly inept on offense. It’s not good defense by either team, it’s just horrid offense. To that end, the defenses were getting lucky that the opposing offenses were inept because they weren’t playing good either.

Close game with KC and Baltimore. Might KC have some potential?

The Chiefs do have some potential, but I also don’t think the Ravens are as good defensively this year as they were last year. Still, they’re pretty good and the Chiefs gave them one heck of a fight.

Can't believe the 49ers won.

They had absolutely no run game and could barely move the ball. However it helps when the Cards throw 2 INTs and are in the double digits with penalties.
