EXACTLY. A third of your income is pretty risky. Perfect example - Corey Simon has developed Polyarthritis, and since it is a non-football illness, he may not get any of the rest of his money this year. Bam, he's out 2.2 Million.

no, no I don't. Immediately after this happened Fisher said they would punish him, then said the NFL did enough - which is why I called him not a man of his word, now that they appear to be reversing course yet again it seems as if they may redeem themselves... I would feel like an idiot if they punished him and I said they didn't...

Personally I think a 5 game suspension is too light. He should be gone for at least 1 full season which would mean he'd miss the first 4 games of next year as well.

I hate the bye week. :( especially after getting destroyed by the Bears last weekend, I'm dying to see how the team responds.

Let this be a lesson to all: if your star running back is injured, you still have to at least try to establish the run.

I really hope they pummel St. Louis next Sunday for this, time for the Hawks to regain some clout.

I don't that's going to happen because the Rams are playing really well right now but it will be interesting to see how they respond to the thrashing they received.

On a side note the Cowboys and Eagles game was pretty disappointing because the Cowboys seemed to have too many miscues in one game. TO's performance from the previous game to this game showed that his mouth has more game than his actual play. It didn't seem like his heart was in the game that had so much hype in it. I hope the Cowboys rebound in the next game.

I'm not sold on the Rams. They already lost to SF, and barely beat cellar dwellers AZ and Green Bay. They put up a ton of points against Detroit, but also allowed a ton.

Seattle has yet to play like themselves this year, but St. Louis has yet to face a team from the top tier.

Fcucking TO, they throw you the ball 13 times. You have a great opportunity to show the eagles up, and you only catch 4 or 5 balls. I dont know if some of those are bad passes, but in the second half what i saw was a man afraid to catch the ball and take a big hit.

T.O definitely alligator armed that over the middle pass... but they also had issues getting the ball out, the line collapsed, bledoe took several big hits and the eagles secondary man handled T.O - he was visibly pissed off

I hate watching the cowboys play as they always find a way to f*ck themselves up. The eccentric Jerry Jones won't put up w/ this too much longer. His botox treatments only last so long and he wants to look good for the camera when they win. At this rate he's gonna need 3 or 4 more treatments before that happens.

The cowboys have probably been the most inconsistant team over the last few years. Huge wins one week, and terrible losses the next. If i remain a cowboys fan and they keep playing like this for much longer im gonna get high blood pressure. Why couldnt i be a bears fan. hah.

Any Monday night predictions? Ravens at Broncos, COLD and sprinkling, could turn into snow ack. I think once again the Broncos D wont allow more than one TD if even that. Same with the Ravens. God Speed to Jason Elam this one is for you bud.

ravens pull out a close win, plummer gets picked twice and throws a TD to javon walker if anyone at all.

The game being in Denver makes this tough to call for me. Since I really can't decide on a logical basis, though, I've got to pick my favorite.

Ravens, let's say 21-10.

how are the ravens gonna score that many points?

Those "miscues" where mostly forced by the Eagles preasure. 7 sacks, and a ton of hits on the QB. One of the INTS was forced by bledose getting hit as he threw the ball. We have been getting this kind of preasure on the QB's all season.

We also have the best QB in the league.

Oh well, Ravens lost, but I don't really care too much. Broncos have a great defense, good running game, and a QB with a beard. That's a recipe for a good team to me. :D They're one of those teams I've always liked, but I don't really follow them

Meh, an average Broncos game is what happend tonight, low scoring defensive battles.
