Falcons had another good offensive outing, but the defence needs some improvement. They did pick it right up in the second half, and hopefully that's how they're going to play it from now on.
I think that the early season success of the defense had alot to do with the way our offence was staying on the field and keeping the D fresh, in addition to the participation of Abraham and Coleman making our rush fearsome and shutting down opposing teams quickly. Once our stars are healthy I think that the defense will cut down on points allowed, and the offense should maintain......since it's proven that if the other guys defense focuses too much on the run we'll hit 'em passing and if they focus on the pass they can't defend against Dunn, Norwood and Vick.
All in all I'm happy with the results so far, but our schedule doesn't get much easier from here on in and we need to get some more W's.
Oh....... FFFAAAALLLLLCCCOOOONNNNNNSSS!!!!!!!!! Johnson's gonna have to cut that Mohawk and cut back on the smacktalk...... (although to give it to him he had his arm around Hall after the game..)

Gasp! THE BROWNS WIN!
Final of 20-13 over the J-E-T-S. Shouldn't have been as close as it was, as the Browns dominated for 3 quarters, but that's the way it goes when you come in 1-5. Browns had about 130 yards rushing from Reuben Droughns, and an almost error-free game from Charlie Frye.
Game was decided on a 4th down late in the game, when Jets QB Chad Pennington ducked under a rushing Browns LB, and threw a perfet pass to TE Eric Carter, who made an incredible one-handed catch, but it was ruled incomplete as Brown's DB Brodney Poole knocked him out of bounds before Carter could get his feet inbounds.

My Chargers did well again, 38-24 win over St. Louis, LT got 240 all-purpose yards today with 3 TDs. The defense came through as well, with Merriman getting 3 sacks, and Marlon McCree returning a fumble 79 yards for a TD!
Now the Chargers are 5-2, which is why...
Quoting MSYtristar (Reply 9): I'm really glad Peyton SMOKED the Broncos once again in Denver. Oh, that's a beautiful thing!
I'm right with you! With that loss, Denver is now 5-2, so the Chargers are tied in 1st!

For once the broncos lost and it wasn't Plummer's fault. Actually he had a pretty good game but I have to give props to Manning for bringing our D to it's knees.

Manning had all day long to pass, and just ate the Broncos other corner (not Champ) for lunch.

Turnovers did the Saints in.....2 INT's returned for touchdowns by the Ravens. Marques Colston continues to tear it up for my fantasy team (2 TD's, 130-odd receiving yards).....

My Texans succeeded in statitically dominating Tennesee, but unfortunately could not overcome 5 turnovers. Of course, the final score is all that matters.
This first three plays of the game for the Eagles.....dropped pass, penalty, and a sack.
Andy, your time in the Eagles gene pool is up! Wait until the winter comes, we have snowballs ready! We shuld be 8-0 or at least 7-1.
Just pathetic.
26 Falcon84: Well, if he runs the offense as smooth as he did Sunday, they will.
27 KAUSpilot: The Cowboys pwn3d the Carolina puddy tats. Now that Bledsoe is benched, I see good things happening with Romo. I'm sure we can beat the Eagles and Gia
28 CastleIsland: Anxiously awaiting tonight's match-up in Minnesota. This will test NE's running game in a big way. Beer's on ice...
29 Mke717spotter: Well it looks like they should be able to beat their record from last year of 4-12. Back to the game, good to see the Packers finally win one at home
30 CO7e7: Do you think the Texans regret passing on Vince Young, Reggie B. and Matt Leinart? I honestly would like to know how they feel now? Zaki
31 CastleIsland: Welly, welly, welly, welly, welly, welly well. The Patriots are back.
32 Duff44: Tough road ahead though... next four opponents are a combined 21-8... (IND, NYJ, @GB, CHI) With that said I'll take 31-7 any day I can get it. GO PAT
33 GOTbound: What a performance by Brady and rest of the team, a showdown with IND next week will set the tone for the rest of the season... NEP @CHI on February 5
34 Confuscius: First half: Bears 41 - 49ers 0 Second half: who cares
35 Eaglekeeper101: Not to mention his first Lambeau Leap!
36 MSYtristar: Indy will beat the Pats next week. I'll say something like 31-24...should be a good game, but Manning will get the best of the Pats D like he did last
37 CastleIsland: It's at NE. Manning = folding chair.
38 USAFHummer: Agreed...probably 7-1 but this is embarrassing...the team has no discipline whatsoever, the play-calling sucks, the execution in the Jags game was te
39 MSYtristar: Did you forget last year so easily? I'm really looking forward to that game...should be a classic as long as the Colts D can hold out.
40 CastleIsland: I've been trying to. However, Manning's record against the Pats is abysmal, so we'll need to see if last year's performance is indicative of the futu
42 Duff44: Sorry.... the NFL is exclusively on Sirius
43 CastleIsland: OK, incredibly stupid question: Can I get NBC on a portable TV at 35,000 feet? (Once electronic devices are approved, of course.) My guess is no, but
