Yeah, Campbell was one of the best rb's ever. Moon's Oilers had a nice bunch of wr's too, iirc.

the onside? crazy.... then the drive, friggen crazy, probably the best game I have ever seen! Bills fans went wild, brought the rafters down when they ruled the T.O catch hit the ground... I knew they would pull something out of their asses, they were too determined, all they needed was field goal range and they got it. Juron tried to pull a shenanigan/kiffin move and it blew up in his face, I laughed when silence fell on that place! the only noise you heard was jerry jones busting an artery in his forehead... in yo face buffalo, how many damn chances do you need? the bright spot for them was Trent Edwards, he looks good.

really though what are the chaces a rookie kicker pulls that off twice in a row? how about even once ? the pressure on that guy had to be massive and I can;'t believe he did it, he is a pimp....

Man I missed the game. I guess I can watch the highlights on ESPN. I can't wait for Pats Vs. Cowboys. If the Cowboys can pull this off then they are for real.

Hmmm. Givens, Hill, Jeffries. Nice bunch to throw to in the Run 'n Shoot.

Not a bad bunch of RBs either. Rozier, White, and Highsmith.

Because then they would be taking cues from Cleveland. Not generally a sound plan. :D

Heh, the poor Browns couldn't win anything. Then they move and change their name to the Raven and go on to the super bowl in 4 years (maybe 5). Of course the the current Browns team suxors. I dunno, I always like the oilers. Titans just sounds like a **** name.

All the Romo - Favre comparisons are uncanny.

Look at their season stats, 13 TD 8 INT each. Favre just has a few more yards, but more losses.

Heh.

Seriously, is there any football fan that doesn't have a man crush on Favre?

Yeah, when Romo has more than 10 games under his belt, wake me up and maybe we can make some comparisons to Favre, until then it's just smoke and mirrors.

I'm thinking more like 5 years.

Some guys start fast, and then fizzle (i.e. Kurt Warner) and other guys take a long time to hit their stride (i.e. Rich Gannon, Trent Green).

To me, 10 games tells nothing as far as Favre type comparisons go...

Better bust out the chequebook Vick!

Quote:

ATLANTA (AP) - The Atlanta Falcons are entitled to recover nearly $20 million in bonus money paid to disgraced quarterback Michael Vick, an arbitrator ruled Tuesday. The players' union vowed to appeal.

Stephen B. Burbank, the University of Pennsylvania law professor and special master who led last week's arbitration hearing, sided with the team after hearing from Falcons president and general manager Rich McKay and attorneys from the NFL Players Association, which represented Vick.
The Falcons argued that Vick, who pleaded guilty to federal charges for his role in a long-running dogfighting operation, knew he was in violation of the contract when he signed a $130 million deal in December 2004.

Hopefully he hasn't spent it all on weed and hookers.

Green hit his stride alright, it came in the form of a career ending 300lb defensive lineman.

Gannon too, Derrick Brooks? put the hurt on him... gave homeboy a hunchback with one hit.... he would have been better off swan diving off the upper deck.
