My beloved Saints will have a tough time against the Falcons, but will prevail. They just got to wake up that defense.

BIlls will buck the Cowboys. Romo just doesn't like to win 2 games in a row. LOL.

Hurah for Thursdays games! Oh go Chargers, yet they will lose. Good thing they are playing in San Diego. Back in the day if Chargers played in Oakland, if they scored a touchdown they would not jump into the crowd...fear of getting stabbed or hurt by Oakland fans.

What? Why would anyone be scared... of jumping into the middle of us?

LOL! I've been a Redskins fan since the Eddie Lebaron era (1956) and we've gone through many lean spells. This one began, IIRC, when Dan Snyder acquired ownership. The Lord only knows when the tide will turn.

I lost interest in the Texas HS playoffs this year when my Garden City Bearkats failed to make the playoffs after 2 straight 6 man state championships.

Re: I've been a Redskins fan since the Eddie Lebaron era (1956)

Gadzooks, maybe one in 1,000 NFL fans nowadays knows Eddie LeBaron... was the first quarterback of the Dallas Cowboys. They have no idea of his pro career with the Skins and Calgary Stampeders:

From http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eddie_LeBaron

Washington Redskins (first stint)

LeBaron was drafted in the tenth round (123rd overall) of the 1950 NFL Draft by the Washington Redskins but left during training camp to perform military service during the Korean War.

He returned to play in 1952 after being releases from his commitment to the United States Marine Corps. The legendary Sammy Baugh was still the Redskins starting quarterback, but he was 37 years old and had already decided to retire at the end of the season. Baugh played three quarters of the first game, he played a quarter of the second game, he played the first quarter of the third game and after, that LeBaron started the rest of the games that season, earning a place in the NFL’s All-Rookie Team,

In 1953 he experienced a mediocre year due to injuries. He hurt his knee in a pre-season game and didn't play much in the regular season.

Canadian Football League

In 1954, the Canadian Football League began a series of raids on NFL teams, signing quarterback LeBaron and his team mate Gene Brito among others.

LeBaron was also influenced to go to the CFL because Larry Siemering, the former head coach of the College of the Pacific, had been hired as head coach of the Calgary Stampeders.

He signed with the Stampeders and became their starting quarterback. He also handled the punting and still found time to record three interceptions playing defensive back.

As a quarterback, he recorded 1,815 passing yards, 8 touchdowns and 24 interceptions.

The team didn't make the playoffs and Siemering didn't stay. After the season he decided to return to the NFL after the Redskins hired Joe Kuharich as their head coach.

Washington Redskins (second stint)

In his seven seasons with the Redskins he started 55 of a possible 72 games at quarterback (he played in 70 of those 72 games).[1] He was also the primary punter for his first three seasons with Washington (he would punt 171 times for a total of 6,995 yards in five NFL season, with 164 of those coming in 1952, 1953, and 1955.)

He was the NFL´s top passer in 1958.

LeBaron is also recognized as one of the 70 greatest Redskins of all time.

Dallas Cowboys

After not being able to participate in the NFL draft during their first year of existence, the Dallas Cowboys needed a quarterback, so the team traded their first round draft choice in the 1961 NFL Draft for LeBaron, who would become the Cowboys’ first starting quarterback. The Redskins ended up drafting Norm Snead with that selection.

He was the starting quarterback for the Cowboys for their first three seasons (1960 to 1962). LeBaron started 10 of 12 games in 1960, with the rookie Don Meredith starting one and Don Heinrich starting the other.[2] LeBaron started 10 of 14 games in 1961, with the young Don Meredith starting the other four. He only started five games in the 1962 season, splitting time with Don Meredith almost evenly. He started the first game of the 1963 season, but was replaced permanently by Meredith for the rest of the season, with LeBaron becoming Meredith's backup.

Some experts say that LeBaron had his best seasons after joining the Cowboys, even though the team itself struggled to win games. (his record during those three seasons was 4-21-1). He was selected to the Pro Bowl in 1962.

LeBaron retired at the end of the 1963 campaign as the No. 11 passer in NFL history, after playing 12 seasons, throwing for 13,399 yards and 104 touchdowns. He was selected for the Pro Bowl four times in 1955, 1957, 1958, and 1962. The shortest quarterback to ever be selected to the Pro Bowl, LeBaron was known primarily as a ball-handler and elusive scrambler.

And Eddie is still alive just into his 80s!

Hey, the Kerens Bobcats (my Mom and Dad’s old high school from the 1930/40s) never won a state championship, but I root them on anytime they play!

The rest of my peerless prognostications:

The Dirty Birds will dirty their way past N’awlins
The Punters will win late over the Tighthens
The Roethlisbergers will slam the Bungles
The Clowns will slaughter the Lambs
Bender’s ‘boys will barely survive the Nills
The Jagwursts will pillage the Folds
The Thiefs will steal one from the Mules
The Guppies will roll to two in a row over the Deadskins
The Beagles will fly by the Buzzards
The Pirates will make Allegra’s Texians walk the plank
The Cravens will sack the Seahags
The Bearlies will dominate the Kitties
The 69ers will swat the Gnats
The Patriots will make the Toe-Suckers cry

And The Packers will go 9-0 by having their way with the Viqueens
