Fun with quotes from TO: apparently, he has had a problem with falling asleep in meetings since his rookie year. Talking about passing game coordinator Todd Haley -

"Todd is a big stickler, and he kind of got offended," Owens told the paper. "That's one of his pet peeves about not sleeping in a meeting.

WHAT A SLAVE DRIVER. Doesn't let his players sleep through team meetings.

I know, I know, he says it's a medical condition, but you have to admit that that is a pretty funny quote.

Most people use the Jake Delhomme comparison. I'm not saying he won't be great, I'm just saying we haven't seen enough to really make a judgment yet.

My prediction: My poor Eagles will not lose this week for a change.

The way the Hawks are playing this year, i bet they could get bitten. Letting a ho-hum Vikings team do 'em at Qwest Field proves that their D can let anyone put up points.

It's shameful really, defense was supposed to be hugely improved this year. The front seven still looks good to me aside from Wistrom, but the dbacks are just getting smoked. :(

no way pitt's beating denver, they suck right now. Yea they're coming off of a bad loss, but they're still 2-5, they simply aren't good right now.

Sorry rabidmoose, but I can't help but find myself amused whenever the Cowboys lose. :D I'm not sure why.

whats with the whistles? palmers hits henry with a pass, he goes down around the 8 yardline and his knees clearly hit the ground hard, way before the ball pops out - play is dead... but the refs refuse to blow a whistle, why? because they are retarded... on the ensuing "fumble" return 2 ravens get injured... needlessly, I couldn't give 2 ****'s about either team but thats just dumb - blow the friggin whistle, don't lead people into believing theres a fumble because you don't have the nuts to blow the play dead. Seems like this happens more than once, every week.

TO dropped an almost for sure TD when he split the safties. I guess he needs his beauty sleep more then we thought he did.

Actually I think Randy Moss does.

Safe bet; they have a bye(letting anyone else know, I'm sure you knew that in setting up the joke).

What the hell happened to Chicago today? Plastered by the 2-6 Dolphins...meanwhile, Minny is fresh off a convincing win over the nfc champs, plays lowly SF and puts up a whopping 3 points. Both of last years SB teams look like ***. What a weird season this is turning out to be.

I just lost a 7 team parlay. Chicago is the most ****ed up piece of **** team in the god damn ****in universe. $40 on a 7 teamer. **** Chicago....no wait...**** miami....**** this ****. Im going to bed. I had them all covered except miami. I mean joey ****ing harrington. Who would have thought that.

You nailed that one. I've been a life long Steeler's fan and this is PAINFUL. Plus we still have games against the Saints, Ravens (2) Bengals and Panthers. Maybe Cowher hangs it up at the end of the year. :(

Going back to the 1998 season, only 5 out of the 14 super bowl teams made it to the playoffs the next year, and two of those were the Patriots back to back SB wins.

I believe that Oakland's current two game winning streak ties their longest streak since they went to the Super Bowl in the 2002 season. :eek: Man, they turned into a train wreck after the conference championship game that year.

I didn't really watch the whole Patriots versus Colts game last night, but from what I saw, it seemed like the Colts should have won by about 40 points. It didn't even look close.

Colts vs. Patriots was disappointing. I expected the Patriots to take that one, but oh well. Nothing to look forward to tonight either unless your a Raider fan. Why do MNF matches tend to suck?

I knew the colts would win, belichick always had manning's number - but not anymore... the pats decimated their team by failing to pay people, now they got what they deserved.... dude sells enough mac & cheese to feed the world but doesn't want to pay a corner or a receiver? f you big guy! I didn't think brady would do that bad though, I still won this week even though I started him over rivers - thanks to tomlinson, javon walker, and the jax defense.

Oh, it could be pretty entertaining. A huge storm will be over Seattle tonight, and Qwest is open over the field. It's going to be a muddy, fumble-y good time.

That is the only reason I think Oakland has a chance of winning.

I'm actually a little disappointed that the Ravens are doing well this year; I don't think they will be able to win the Super Bowl, and I think I see a Raiders-like crash coming in the near future due to the age of the team. On the one hand, that would mean they need to make their push now, on the other, I was hoping for a high draft pick or two to make NEXT year the year.

What a game that was. I guess people are finally starting to figure out that the QB wasn't the only problem...
