Yeah it's kind of unfair to rank Philly ahead of them when they had a layup win over the Texans.

The Iggles will be brought down to earth next week.

The Rams went from 22 to 18. I can live with that for now until our offense decides to score a touchdown.

That defense looked darn good though. That was very encouraging. If that offense gets on track then look out.

I was half-watching the Raiders-Chargers game last night, but I heard Brad Nessler almost apologize for the quality of the match-up. He optimistically mused that the Steeler-Jaguars game would be more competitive. I think it will be a great early season game.


I'm grateful that I'm not a Raiders fan. That whole scene looks very bleak from an outside perspective.

Hey, the Texans are a legitimate 8-8 team this year! They are not a gimme for any...never mind, who am I kidding.

The Panthers game? I didn't watch, figured it was a blowout victory for them. How wrong I was.

The Giants will certainly be motivated.

What the heck was up with your red zone offense?

Part of this is typical week one overreaction

You could be on to something there...

It was strange to see the Rams stop the run, BLITZ and come up on the positive side of the turnovers...HASTLETT deserves a TON of credit.

I think the offense will come around...Bulger is good and has some great recievers.

Patriots at #10? Fine. Underestimate them as usual. We'll see you at the Superbowl.

The Chargers and Bears are too low. Pittsburg, Colts, and Seatle are too high. At least based on week 1 performance.

I guess the Patriots must suck. I'll have to stop watching.

Half the league is making Super Bowl reservations and the other half is preparing for next year's draft.

It was pathetic. Except for a dry spell in the 3rd quarter, they could move the ball down the field until they got into the red zone. And not getting any points when you get a turnover on the 2 yard line is inexcusable.

The Rams starting offense has not scored a touchdown since LAST YEAR! This needs to be fixed if they even hope to improve over last year's record of 6-10.
