Around The NFL -- Week 6

PhillyPhreak54 · October 17, 2005, 02:24:14 AM

Yeah, I was pretty angry today, Sarge. Mike Vick is terrible. And so is that Atlanta defense. I think Baldinger was doing the Vicks game today and on one play he said "you know, its plays like this (a scramble for a first down) that make him great. everyone says he can't read defenses or operate from the pocket but when he does this it is all worth it." Or some shtein like that.

Crayton broke his ankle? Now they'll have to play Peerless Price. He'll get to add to that 1 catch for -1 yard for $1.8M.

If Griese is done then they have to start Chris Simms.

The Falcons defense is overrated. The Eagles just made them look like HOFers in week one with their piss poor protection in the first half. They haven't really shut anyone down besides the Vikings, but who hasn't shut down the Vikings lately?

By the way, I don't know if this is credible or not, but PFT.com said they think the Vikings could possibly move Winfield, and Belichick vows to fix that defense, and the Pats could be be interested if the Vikings wanted to move him. Take it for what it's worth, just speculation, but they have nailed their share of stories here and there lately.

Yeah, I read that. But I seriously doubt they give Winfield away. They had CB troubles for years and now that they've paid him and don't really owe him a lot of bonus money anymore, it would be better to keep him. He's young and they can build arounf him and Smoot.

I do think they could deal Chavous though. That would make more sense.

So I guess the Texans trade Carr in the offseason and draft Leinart.

I think they'll trade down with Arizona and take one, maybe even two, of the franchise OTs that will be available in this draft...

It's not just that, the Falcons are your classic "dome" team being that the Defense is much better inside the Georgia Dome where they can get teh crowd behind them. I forget the number, but more than 2/3 of their sacks last year came at home... and the only dominating performance the D has had on the road this year was at Buffalo where they were facing the worst starting QB in the past few years in Lostman. Had Holcomb been starting, things could have been a lot different. The Pats exploited their terrible secondary even inside the Dome.

The Saints were flat out robbed yesterday.

If they can actually pull that off I would be stunned.

Rams are putting it on the Colts so far. They went up 10-0 before the Colts offense took the field and were up 17-0 at the end of the first qtr.

Then the drunk, idiot kicker missed a FG and the Rams still lead.

Now Bulger's hurt and heading to the locker room. WAR JAMIE MARTIN!

JTrotter Fan · October 17, 2005, 10:00:48 PM

Gotta love the sleeper pick up of Kevin Curtis. He's done well for me the past two weeks.

Sgt PSN · October 17, 2005, 10:04:17 PM

Gotta love controversies. Edge fumbles and a Rams defender appears to fall on the ball. One of the officials signals "Rams ball" and once the pile is cleared the ref overturns the call and gives it back to the Colts. Manning better throw and effing TD here.

JTrotter Fan · October 17, 2005, 10:28:38 PM

Well the Rams have no chance without Bulger...so he better come back after the half.

WEST is GOD · October 17, 2005, 10:43:36 PM

They said will not return. If Colts cover I win money, please light it up in the 2nd half.

Sgt PSN · October 17, 2005, 11:51:40 PM

Manning and Harrison now own the td record with 86. Colts putting the Rams away now.

BigEd76 · October 17, 2005, 11:54:48 PM

From 17-7 Rams to 38-20 Colts in 2.5 quarters. Time for more media slurping of Peyton...
