Coming off their first win in 10 games the Detroit Lions played well against the Chicago Bears but the Bears turned out to be too much winning 48-24. Led by Matt Forte who fiinally had his break out game of the year with 121 yds on only 12 carries and 1 TD. Jay Cutler did a good job managing the game throwing for 141 yds on 18/28 with 2 TDs and he had a John Elway in the Super Bowl vs the Packers like TD run from 5 yds out. Before he hurt his knee rookie Mathew Stafford was great going 24/36 for 296 1 TD and 1 int, his fav guy was the great alvin Johnson, as it always should be. CJ caught 8 passes for 133 yds.
The Cincinnati Bengals needed OT to be the Cleveland Browns 23-20. It was a bit of a suprise with seeing how impressive the Bengals have been this year and the Browns have looked like one of the worst teams in the league all season. Carson Palmer went 23/44 for 230 yds and 2 TDs with an int. Cedric Benson kept up his good running goin for 74 yds on 18 runs. Ochocinco caught both of Palmers TDs. Derek Anderson is back in as the starting QB in Cle which is what he shouldve been all along. He was 26/48 for 269 yds a TD and an int. His suprising go to guy was unknown rookie out of UGA Mohamed Massaquoi who had 8 cat for 148 yds. Jerome Harrison ran for 121 yds on 29 runs.
Edgerrin James made his return to Indianapolis and the crowd showed their love and appreciate for my boy EJ from DaU!!! as the backup RB in Seattle. My Colts of course still won big time 34-17 with the double up and for the first time in his career THE GREAT Peyton Manning has thrown for over 300 yds in 4 straight games. Peyton was 31/41 for 353 yds 2 TDs and an int. Dallas Clark 8 cat 80 yds, Reggie Wayne 6 cat 74 yds 1 TD, Pierre Garcon 3 cat 71 yds, Austin Collie 6 cat 65 yds and Joseph Addai 7 cat 50 yds. Seneca Wallace still filling in for the injured Matt Hasselback went 33/45 for 257 yds and a TD. EJ had 4 runs for 16 yds and a catch for 6 yds.
VINCE YOUNG!!! VINCE YOUNG!!! VINCE YOUNG!!!
The team he plays for which I will NOT say their name, sucks!!!
In New Englands 27-21 win over Baltimore the refs had way too much to do with the outcome with some absolutely horrible calls. But the Ravens still had a chance to piss off the refs and still win but former Oklahoma WR Mark Clayton dropped two clutch passes including one on 4th down after Flacco put it perfect inbetween the 8 and 9 on his jersey. Joe Flacco completed 27/47 for 264 yds 2 TDs and an int hitting Derek Mason 7 times for 88 yds and a TD. Ray Rice had 11 runs for 103 yds and 5 cat for 49 yds. Ray Lewis had 14 tackles and Terrell Suggs had 6 tackles and a forced fumble on a sack. Brady was 21/32 for 256 yds and 1 TD wit hthe TD going to Randy Moss for his first off the year. Randy caught 3 passes for 50 yds.
In the battle of which will win it, great offense vs great defense the O of the Saints won 24-10. However they also played some good D to help seal the victory. Drew Brees only had to go 20/32 for just 190 yds thats how good the Saints D and running game has become this year. Finally looking like they realize Reggie Bush is not a NFL RB they have two true backs to go to in Mike Bell and Pierre Thomas and this week it was Thomas' turn he had 19 carries for 86 yds and the only offensive TD for New Orleans. They had a fumble recovery in the endzone for a TD and Darren Sharper does it again with a 99 yd int return for the first TD. The rookie Mark Sanchez struggled throwing 3 ints and lost the fumble that was recovered for a TD.
Uh Oh looks like the Cowboys are in trouble and even bigger Uh Oh looks like the Broncos are for real. Denver beat Dallas 17-10 after trailing 10-0 at the end of the first qt. Kyle Orton has yet to throw an interception the season. In this game he went 20/29 for 243 yds and 2 TDs with Brandon Marshell being his lead WR with 4 cat for 91 yds and the game winning TD. My boy B.Marsh who I believe is a top 3 at best and top 5 at worst WR in the league was incredible in making the catch and run after to give Denver the win. In the true meaning of 'Mossing' somebody thats exactly what Marsh did to Terence Newman going right over the top of him like he was a 5th grader taking candy from a kindrgardener. He snatched the ball and then the "on paper mighty Dallas D" looked scarred to tackle him as he made tem look like fools and the guy who gave up the catch T.New (who I do like bdw) gave up on even trying to catch Brandon as he went into the endzone. Tony Romo was 25/42 for 255 yds and an int to Champ Bailey who looks to be back as one of the premire and top 5 CBs in the league. Although Romo missed numerous of looked like open WRs with passes that were high and/or off the person to me who deserves the most blame thus far is Jason Garrett the offensive cooridinator and Im not letting that weak coach Wade Phillips off the hook either. He has no control and Garrett is ridiculous. The top rushing game in the league was not able to get into a rythem because of all the passing. The Cowboys should never throw the ball 40+ times this year not even 30+ when they have the lead they had early. Brian Dawkins had 7 tackles and was the main force behind the Broncos buckling down and shutting down the Cowboy offensive after the 1st qt. Champ Bailey had 8 tackles an interception and many pass deflections including 2 on the last two plays of the Cowboys drive that got stopped at the 2 yd line. Romo was the one who got the team down there in position to all you Cowboy fans who where so deep in love with him just 3 yrs ago.
My underdog pick of the year and pick to win the West every since the summer the 49ers blank the Rams 35-0. Lead by the best young LB in the game Patrick Willis who had 8 tackles 2.5 sacks and an int that he returned 23 yds for a TD. Takeo Spike had 8 tackles and a sack also. The Niners are one knocked down pass by Brett Favre last week from being undefeated. Believe me the culture over the last decade or so has been changed big ups to the organization for making Mike Singletary the Head Coach you all see now what I knew along time ago that it was the best decision.
The defending champs are in trouble to me and I dont want to hear the lame excuse of Polamalu is out. I really dont believe that him and him alone can affect who good that defense is and if that is true than I dont want to hear all that bullcrap about how great their D is because it aint true. Troy is great and everybody else is ok at best and most of them suck... if you want to use him being out as an excuse! They where up 28-0 on San Diego with 1min left in the 3rd qt Sunday Night at home and then Phillip Rivers took over cutting the lead in half to 28-14 the nafter a Pitt score pushed it back up to 35-14 the Chargers got two more TDs making it 35-28. The Steelers did hold on to win 38-28 but it is crazy that they had to even fight in the end for the win after being out scored in the last 16 min of the 28-7. Rothlisburger was 26/33 for 333 yds and 2 TDs. And second year RB Rashard Mendenhall who started his 2nd game of his career, his 1st being last yr vs the Ravens where Ray Lewis made him pay for trash talk he did and welcome him to the league by breaking his shoulder. This go around the young talented back got to show off his skills that I first noticed while he was in college at Illinois. He had 29 carries for 165 yds and 2 TDs, very impressive even though the Chargers D is pitiful and Shawne Marriman should be ashamed. With no running game because Waco via Marlin native LT is all but finished (and damn it hurts me deep to say that but it hurts even worse to watch him struggle and fade away) and as good as Sproles is he is just too small to carry a whole load. So Rivers brought the team back all by himself with his WRs but mainly AllPro TE Antonio Gates. Rivers was 21/36 for 254 yds and 3 TDs 2 of which to Gates who caught 9 passes for 124 yds.
Brett Favre does it again! In his first game against the team that he gave 16 yrs of his life to he led his new team, their arch rival to a win over them 30-23. Brett had to win the game as the Packers found a way to eliminate AD. He was 24/31 for 271 yds and 3 TDs with no interceptions. Mainly going to Bernard Berrian who had 6 cat 75 yds 1 TD and Sidney Rice 5 cat 70 yds 1 TD. AD only had 55 yds on 25 carries with 1 TD. His successer Aaron Rodgers was great in defeat though esp under all the pressure he was under because of his horrible line that allowed him to be sacked 8 times. Rodgers threw for 384 yds on 26/37 passsing with 2 TDs and an int. Jermichael Finley caught 6 passes for 128 yds and a TD.
Signing out DaKING, Jody-Jo.....YEZZIR!!! BALEE-DAT
