Titans usually play Indy tough. I actually took the Titans to win in my pool.Quote:

Yeah, the Titans seem to be on their way up.
I wouldn't take the CLE-CIN game as an indication of offensive trends throughout the league, but damn that is a lot of scoring.
The fans at the cle/ cin game got their moneys worth. I thought most of the games yesterday were close and fun to watch. Except the pats/chargers game. Wow I thought it was going to be high scoring. It was boring. The Raiders almost handed the Broncos a opening day loss. So sad. So very sad.

Well within the rules... but kind of chickensh1t in my opinion.
Clevland surprised me. Arizona surprised me.
The best play of the day I thought was Steve Smith breaking those tackles to take it the whole way... almost Barry Sandersesque... WOW!
Bah, don't let AZ fool you. They did nothing in the second half, and then Seattle handed them the game on a silver platter.
Chargers got spanked. Hard to believe this team's roster is the same as last year. Of course their schedule is tougher this year, but their offense has just looked flat both games. Rivers looks like a green rookie all of a sudden.
And they have faced two pretty good teams right out of the starting gate...Quote:

I'll admit, when you got Westbrook--use him. Obviously McNabb couldn't do it all tonight.Quote:

Westbrook had 16 carries for almost 100 yards, Buckhalter had 1 carry. We drafted Tony Hunt to be the power back and he has not had a carry in 2 games. With the personel we have we could run the ball 30-40 times a game and be very successful. And with Mcnabbs arm, the deep playaction pass would be there more than a few times a game. It just needs to be set up.Quote:
