Nice debut

Matt Ryan’s first ever NFL pass? A 62-yard TD to Michael Jenkins.

6-0 Falcons over the Lions, pending the XP.

Conversely

Vince Young? Still awful. Just basically handed the Jaguars a TD with an awful pass in his own territory.

Bretty And The Jets

Picked up the Q today, Heres my Question, Is it Ok to Root for Favre now that he is on the Jets if you are a Vikings Fan?

by Tony_O on Sep 7, 2008 4:31 PM CDT reply actions   0 recs

As long as you don't root for the Pack, it's okay.

But seriously, they beat a team that was 1 – 15 last year. Not that impressive.

I guess

I suppose you can, but the worse he does, the lower pick the Pack gets next year.

The biggest shocker for me...

Is Troy Williamson caught not just one, but two! TWO passes!

I’m shocked!

Oh no!

The Bears are dismantling the Colts. And Forte looks like the real deal. Perhaps the NFC North is a three team race (Lions are excluded).

 It ain’t gettin’ any easier.

Yeah

The Colts are playing like a team that thought they could win tonight just by showing up.

And their interior line can’t block squat with Jeff Saturday out of action. The Williams boys could have a lot of fun with that next week.

Also

If Matt Forte and Kevin Jones can do this to the Colts’ defense. . .I’m salivating over the prospect of Adrian Peterson and Chester Taylor getting their shots at them.

The Bears aren't that good

And the Colts aren’t that bad. I hope they stay shoddy until Week 3.

AFC – Officially up for grabs.

i would prefer sundays

But I rarely can get the games, if I am lucky enough that the packers are not on the tube. Considering that I live 45 mintes north of GB.I do not have the funds to dish out for Sunday ticket.

Any Vikings game that is broadcast is best!

As a Minnesota Ex-Pat, I am happy anytime a Vikings game is broadcast here in Michigan.

Monday Night Football is always welcome!
