NFL week 5

The first thing I'd like to say is....how did the Texans loose that game? I know it's the Colts and all, but that still has to be one of the worst choke jobs ever.

How 'bout the Giants? Just off to a good start? Or setting a pace to match last years Pats?

How 'bout them Dolphins! Two straight wins against the two best teams in the AFC last year.

Yes, the Giants are looking very good.

The Dolphin's were great the past two weeks...it would be so awesome if they made the playoffs over the Patriots this year.

And the Giants are good...but it looks like Washington may be able to catch them.

And the Giants may be 4-0, but the Titans are 5-0!!!!! BEST RECORD!!!11!1!!

Last thought...was it just me, or is it getting harder to tell whether a game is an upset or not now? Everybody keeps flip-flopping.

There are definitely a lot of surprises this season.

Who would've thought the Dolphins would be 2-2? I figured they'd only win maybe 5 games the whole season, and while I didn't expect greatness from the Lions, I also didn't expect 0-4, or that the Bengals would be 0-5.

I have been impressed by the Cardinals this season. They are 3-2, which isn't great, and they're in the NFC West, which isn't exactly a powerhouse division, but Warner has been looking good. It'll be interesting to see how they match up against the Cowboys next Sunday.

May i remind you that the Giants beat the 'Skins?

The 'Skins may have gotten better,but the Giants havent digressed and have improved some also.

Im surprised by my Falcons also.3-2,granted theyre 1-2 on the road,but Roddy White is back into last years form of a beast at WR,Matt Ryan is improving and playing solidly(winning at Lambeou yesterday none the less.),and Turner is legit folks.I wouldnt be surprised for a .500 season and a chance at the playoffs.

I love Kurt Warner, but he looses the ball when he gets hit and he gets nicked up easily. The front line will have to do a good job all year if they're going to go any where.

The Pit/Jac game was great. I'm not a fan of either team, but that was just fun football.

***Art*** · 10-06-2008, 03:58 PM

The Cardinals are the big surprise. Did the team really change that much from last year?

The Pit/Jac game WAS fun. I really enjoyed it.

The Lions are truly pitiful. They may not win a game this year. Seriously.

PIttsburgh won! that is all that matters! GO STEELERS!

Iceman-bass14 · 10-06-2008, 10:02 PM

It blows my mind.I have a much better all around fantasy team this year,but i just cant win.I start the wrong players at the wrong time and wind up playing Brett Favre when he throws 6 TD's!

S.B.Nichols · 10-06-2008, 10:42 PM

Yeah...I know...in the BYOC league I'm having the same problem. I sit Rodgers this week because he had that shaky shoulder thing, play my backup Schaub. When I get home from church I learn that Schaub spent the night in the hospital, and Rodgers is on his way to 30+ points. Oh well, that's part of it, I guess.

Anyone watching the Saints? This has to be the best game of the week.

mulletman · 10-06-2008, 11:18 PM

The Saints/Vikings game was absolutely epic. Best game I've watched in a very long time....
