Around the NFL - Week 5

[PhillyPhreak54]

Vick downgraded to questionable

ESPN reporting that Ronnie Mexico is "highly unlikely" to play but there is no final word yet because the Falcs are playing it mum.

[Diomedes]

CSD is my CFFFL AFC opponent this week.  His QBs are Vick and Culpepper. 

[MDS]

My pick: Goin with the Eagles (favored by 3.5) over Dallas. I'm perfect for the season in picking 1 line per week. Oh, how awsome I is. Farg Dallas!

[PhillyPhreak54]

Sal Pal says that Vick will NOT start today.

Matt Schaub starts
Ty Detmer #2

Vick would not wear a knee brace so they will not let him play.

Richard Seymour is out for the Pats too.

[MDS]

Sal Pal says Mexico is out. Yipee!

So an f'ed up Pats D versus a Vickless Falcs team? Thank god I'll be subjected to that abortion of a game all day.

Detroit (-1) vs. Baltimore - Two bad teams and I'm hoping Detroit is less zesty today so I can win some cash.

I like this line but couldn't take Detroit two weeks in a row.

Took GB (-3), Cleveland (-2.5), and the Bills (-3) this week.

[PhillyPhreak54]

I contemplated those as well, 76.

My only concerns are what Browns team shows up? The one who scored points in Lambeau or do they get shut down by a decent Bears defense. I think Crennel could have 'em ready to roll off the bye though.

I really struggled between the NO- GB game. I was real close to taking the Saints because of GB's injuries and terrible secondary. But I passed on it.

And I think Holcombe will inject some life into that offense. If Losman was still in there I think Moulds and Evans would've boycotted the game. I stayed away from that one though because I want to see how Miami plays a bit more. I like what Saban is doing though.

[PhillyPhreak54]

Cadillac is inactive today in NY.

Pittman will start.

[MDS]

Jets are starting a 215 year old dude at QB. Who cares.

[Eagles76ersFan]

I really like the Browns comming off that bye week and they'll be fired up at home to get to .500. Plus, I just really think the Bears suck. Maybe Orton will be drunk.

I'm not sold on Miami, yet. And the Bills can only be better with Holcombe. I think they are gonna be extra motivated today with a new QB.

[General_Failure]

I would sacrifice all your firstborn children to see The Mexless Vicks throw for 350 yards today.

[MDS]

Games are a startin. Oh happy day.

[Sgt PSN]

STL returned the opening kickoff 97 yards for a TD. 

[SD_Eagle5]

Detroits up 2 TDs on the Ravens. Game over. Ravens O won't break 10 points.
