Around The NFL--Week 1

Logan Mankins looked excellent at LG for the Pats.  Looks like their FO hit on a surprise pick again.

Raiders have no defense. They will score many a point against other pathetic AFC West teams.

Burgess got overpaid.

Burgess got overpaid.

lol...ya think?

[Phanatic]

The Raiders did OK against the run, but the secondary is suspect. Considering how the Eagles have Moss's number and how Collins seems to panic under pressure the Eagles Raiders game doesn't scare me at all.

burgess doesn't get warmed up until the playoffs remember?  too bad they won't make the playoffs this year. 

moss had an average game for him.  dropped a few easy throws.  Tom Brady is real good on 3rd down.  Deion Branch is so quick.  its yet to be seen if the pats are the same team.  wait til they play a decent team and we will find out.  i hate them either way.

Anyone else see this?

Apparently, none of the national sports sites did....

Golden Boy can do no wrong. He's so dreamy.

I saw it last night during the game but didn't think much of it.

I thought it fairly obvious that Dillon was annoyed with the number and quality of carries he was getting, and Brady was trying to pump him up and tell him he'd get the rock.  Exactly what Owens was doing to McNabb in Pittsburgh.

Obviously, Corey has stopped going donw on Tom since they moved in together.

[WEST is GOD]

Moss had an average game. Other than that lucky catch, he really didn't do much. Kinda like Portis' first game last year. Had that one play early then did pretty much nothing.

If TO turned in an identical performance and someone made a similar comment, would you agree with them?

5 for 130 with an impressive 73 yard score is plenty good enough for me to say he had a good game.  Or are you saying that Moss has to score more than once to have an above average game?  'Cause that's stooopid.

I would say the same thing. Kinda reminded me of TO's MNF performance against the Vikings. That TD catch late put him near 100 yards. Other than that he had a very average game. Moss has a nice game yesterday, but 5 catches 131 yards says it all. One catch was more than half of those yards. He wasn't consistent all game through. To his credit, Collins had no time to throw the ball to him.

Exactly.

Funny..this wasn't the top story on every single channel/website/newspaper though. And don't give me, we'll its not TO. No, but it IS the Super Bowl Champ.

The Inky talked about it. And they were sucking off Tom saying he lit into Dillon to get him going or some shtein like that.
