A story "gets out" that he falls asleep in meetings, and then he goes out and gets a penalty for an obviously premeditated celebration penalty in a game which 1. the Cowboys lose, and 2. he misses a sure touchdown catch. Now, we're all talking about him again, which is all he wants anyway.

Apparently there are people saying that he looks like a high schooler when he runs his routes. If he put half as much effort into playing the game as he does into attracting attention, he would be so ridiculously unbelievably good...

I think I'm going to just stop talking about him completely.

seriously whats with joe theisman, he wants to cap on walter... what the? atleast kornheiser had it right, the raiders offense is unspeakably bad - but theisman wants to blame walter for it... guy has 2.5 seconds to throw the ball including drop back time, it takes atleast a half second to drop back and thats moving mega quick...then atleast a second to make a read, now he has 1 second to make a 2nd/3rd read and throw... while running to avoid the sack! the o-line is the worst that has ever existed in pro football, the worst.... but don't blame some guy who is back there taking the beating, trying to move the chains.

every game the raiders play, walter hits receivers in the hands, in the chest, and they drop it - atleast 5 a game....don't blame the guy, he is doing his part.

this is the Raiders I'm use to seeing.

I hope he took out some extra life insurance this morning. What's that, six sacks just in the 1st? Holy crap.

btw, is it too late to send Ashworth back to the Pats? :o

did you see how fast he took that knee to end the 1st half? he was scared his o-line wouldn't even hold up for that.

the one time he gets an open receiver he throws it a little too high and theisman crucifies him....dude got ONE receiver and missed him, he was probably in a state of shock at the time of the throw.

Miami does this every year to every good team I HATE it. They screwed the Pats last year just like they did to Chicago yesterday, insanity.
Whoever said they laugh when the cowboys lose...so do I, I have an odd feeling when they lose for some reason. kinda wierd.
Lol Raiders Lol.

... ...and Robbie Toebeck goes down. I think the whole O-line is second string now, excluding Walter Jones. :(

I love it when the Giants and Pats lose.

snakespy - don't act like the fans over there aren't crying for cutler.

The worst part is the media constantly feeds T.O. and thats why he does the crap he does.

No one wants this jerk, and he jst needs to retire and become a personality on a football show, because that's all he's good for.

I still can't believe Brayton kneed Jarramy Stevens in the nuts. LOL, what the hell!?

Looks like it was a close shot, but he missed. Not that it should matter in the determination of the suspension.

giants won this sunday :p

I actually ended up going to the game, saturday night some guy at the bar was selling 2 tickets so i got them. It was my first nfl game, it could have been better but i'll take any win, especailly considering the injuries the giants have right now.

And man what is wrong with TO, could he be on the decline? That bomb that he dropped was crazy. If I was bledsoe or a coordinator he's yelled at I'd sit there and rub it in his face for a while. Bledsoe is too classy to do that though, but I hope that he got chewed out bad in the locker room at least away from the cameras.

Crap, already breaking my no talking about TO vow. :)

Plenty of teams have wanted him in the past, even with his problems, but I think the problem now is that his actual work ethic, particularly during actual games, is being called into question. He's had a history of finding some way to skip out on practices, apparently, but he has always worked out hard on his own time at least, and he has always been a gamer on Sundays. Now, after the whole hurt hamstring, Tour de France outfit on the exercise bike thing, everyone is calling him lazy and a faker, and it's REALLY bad now that they're calling his gameday preparation and motivation into question with him running bad routes. His downsides have really been amplified this year at the expense of his benefits.

Okay, now I'm not going to talk about him any more. :D

Whew, what IS that smell?!! Oh, it's just the Raiders...

Yes Its an terrible stench. I'm sad so sad.

o god, injuries are killing the giants. Now Toomer is out for the season with a partial acl tear.......plax is questionable(he'll probably play, but still), and we don't have much depth at wr. Strahan, done for the season, osi, out for a few weeks at least, a replacement de is hurt as well. Our fb is probable.....This is worse than last season with all of the lb's going down.

It's too bad for NY, I thought they rebounded nicely after getting pummeled by Seattle. There's a lot less intimidation going for you without those DE's, and Eli now has less weapons.

Arrington out for season? Im sure he must be with a ruptured achilles.

Good, Giants injuries are good for the cowboys.

Being questionable hasn't stopped him from running his mouth. I heard on the radio that he apparently had some quote basically challenging the Bear's CBs to line up in man against the Giants. That's great, Plax, but I believe Chicago runs a cover 2 defense, they're not going to change around what's probably the best D in the NFL just because you're talking a little smack. Have fun playing hurt with a bunch of other receivers no one has heard of.

I'm with Snakespy on this one. There are a ton of Broncos fans here in Dallas, and I haven't heard any of them yelling for Cutler past the first few games of the season.
