The big news this week is Rex Ryan saying he would've won Super Bowls (plural) if he was coaching the Chargers instead of the Norv Turner, and you know what? He's right.
Usually bulletin board material like this results in a loss for the bulletin boarder and a win for the bulletin boardee, but like I've said many times before, fuck the Chargers. Jets winners, Chargers losers.
I said that first loss was coming for the Lions soon, but I didn't think it'd be that soon. Oh well, they'll get back on track against the overrated Falcons. Lions winners, Falcons losers.
Okay, what's the deal with the Bucs, are the team that got smoked by 45 in San Fran or the team that took out N.O. last week? I can't decide.
What I can decide is that I don't like Chicago. Buccaneers winners, Bears losers.
One of these 2 are going to win the NFC South, and I'm leaning towards saying whoever wins this game will be that team. I guess I'll take Tennessee coming off their bye. Titans winners, Texans losers.
After last Sunday's loss to the Pats, my fellow Cowboys fans were in full on panic mode. But why though? Yeah, we're 2-3, but we've played arguably the toughest schedule in the NFL thus far (the Jets, Niners, Skins, Lions, and Pats have a combined record of 21-8) and we still lead late in all 3 of our losses. I'm not saying we're without issue or worry, but things could be a lot worse and it's definitely not the time to start panicking.
Now, if we don't kill the 0-5 Rams with A.J. Feeley likely starting, then we might have something to worry about. Cowboys winners, Rams losers.
Can we stop with all the "Hue Jackson coached him before" talk in attempt to justify that atrocious Carson Palmer trade? Mike Martz coached Roy Williams before he went to Chicago, and how is that working out so far? And that's with Martz actually coaching Williams in the past, Jackson was the wide receiver coach in Cincinnati, he didn't even coach Palmer.
Oh, and the "Oakland wants to win now" angle needs to cease as well. The Raiders weren't winning anybody's Super Bowl before Carson Palmer and they damn sure aren't after, not even on Madden.
With all that being said, there's no way I'm taking Kansas City on the road after those 2 struggle wins over Minnesota and Indianapolis (combined record: 1-11). Raiders winners, Chiefs losers.
Christian Ponder? Against Green Bay? No further analysis needed. Packers winners, Vikings losers.
Hey, it's Super Bowl XLIII II! Sadly for Arizona, the result of part 2 will be the same as part 1... kinda like "The Hangover" in football form. Steelers winners, Cardinals losers.
Looks like it's time for the Redskins to fall back down to their mediocre reality. Panthers winners, Redskins losers.
Man, talk about Tebow Time, not only is he making his first start this year, but he returns to Florida to do it. Albeit South Florida, but still, Florida nonetheless. Oh, and I'm still waiting on that ejection Brandon Marshall promised, maybe he'll do it against his former team? Broncos winners, Dolphins losers.
Sean Payton can stay home and rest his leg Sunday night because the Colts are in full Suck For Luck mode. Saints winners, Colts losers.
How in the hell did ESPN get stuck with this game? I know they didn't think the Jaguars had a chance to be good this year, and it's not a rivalry, so this just seems odd. Whatever. Ravens winners, Jaguars losers.
No one wants to see this game, right? The Browns might very well be the most boring team to watch in the NFL, and the Seahawks are the Seahawks. Oh well, somebody's gotta win, so I'll take the Seahawks on the road for some reason I'm not yet aware of. Seahawks winners, Brown winners.
This Week: 7-6 (.538)
Last Week: 9-4 (.692)
Season: 62-41 (.602)
