NFL Talk

that spine comment is not really similar. Bruschi had a TON of different doctors evaluate him. They ALL said that football presents NO risk to him, or atleat no more risk then it would to any other player. They said his injury was an isolated thing and playing football or not playing football would have no change on the chances of it happening again.

In the UK I believe you are 5 hours behind the eastern timezone. NFL Games are played at 1 and 4pm eastern time on sundays (generaly) with a game also at 8-9 on sunday night and monday night. So you would be adding 5 hours to these times to get your time.

11/13 1:00 ET At Buffalo -2.5 Kansas City (I dont really get why bills are favorites here.. KC wins it)
11/13 4:15 ET Washington -1 At Tampa Bay (skins win easy)
11/13 1:00 ET New England -3 At Miami (pats arnt this bad yet (although they did lose this game last year)
11/13 1:00 ET At Chicago -13 San Francisco (bears win but they arnt covering by 13 ill tell ya that much)
11/13 1:00 ET At NY Giants -9.5 Minnesota (Easy win for the Giants)
11/13 1:00 ET At Detroit -3.5 Arizona (AZ in my upset cause i have no faith in kevin jones, but he will be the big factor)
11/13 1:00 ET At Jacksonville -6.5 Baltimore (Ravens.. they have been playing better laitly and I think they pull out a close win)
11/13 1:00 ET At Indianapolis -17.5 Houston (Colts steam roll them.. there will be no 14 to 14 tie at the half like last time.)
11/13 4:05 ET At Carolina -9 NY Jets (panthers easy)
11/13 4:05 ET Denver -3 At Oakland (Denver in a close one)
11/13 4:15 ET At Seattle -6.5 St. Louis (Seattle keeps on winning in a big shoot out)
11/13 4:15 ET At Atlanta -9 Green Bay (Warrick DUnn will have a great day, falcons win)
11/13 8:35 ET At Pittsburgh -7.5 Cleveland (Staley shows why he was the starter pre season he will own the browns and win it alone)

Monday Night Football
11/14 9:05 ET At Philadelphia -3 Dallas (cowboys win F*ck the eagles lol)

I think Buffalo beats KC, they don't have Preiest anymore.. it'll still be close though. I also don't think the Ravens win ethier.

I would love it if the Vikings wooped the Giants, and the Eagles whoop the Cowboys. I'll tell you one thing, the Eagles game will be close as hell. The Eagles are gonna come out to prove something, Westbrook, and Dawkins(best player on Eagles and best player on the field in this game IMO) will have great games.

11/13 1:00 ET At Buffalo -2.5 Kansas City - I like Buffalo in this one. And it has nothing to do with KC not having Priest Holmes.
11/13 4:15 ET Washington -1 At Tampa Bay - Tampa misses Brian Griese. Washington wins.
11/13 1:00 ET New England -3 At Miami - I kinda like Miami...but I'm going with the Pats.
11/13 1:00 ET At Chicago -13 San Francisco - Bears...
11/13 1:00 ET At NY Giants -9.5 Minnesota - Giants got this all but won. And its only Friday.
11/13 1:00 ET At Detroit -3.5 Arizona - Two teams with alot of Wide Recievers. no one to throw the ball though. I hate Kurt Warner, but Joey Harrington is robbing Detroit lol I'll take Arizona
11/13 1:00 ET At Jacksonville -6.5 - Jaguars. Baltimore sucks. They only played hard last two games cuz they were division games. that gets every team fired up.
11/13 1:00 ET At Indianapolis -17.5 Houston - Houston is gonna end up upsetting at least one more team. Colts wont be that team though.
11/13 4:05 ET At Carolina -9 NY Jets - i like Brooks Bollinger. He might even take Chad Pennington's Job away some day. wont be today though. Carolina wins.
11/13 4:05 ET Denver -3 At Oakland - Oakland for the upset.
11/13 4:15 ET At Seattle -6.5 St. Louis - is Marc Bulger Playing? Dont matter Sean Alexander is gonna carry the Seahawks deep into the Playoffs, and they will beat St. Loius this sunday.
11/13 4:15 ET At Atlanta -9 Green Bay - I dont see Warrick Dunn having a good game. GB has good run D. Atlanta Still wins.
11/13 8:35 ET At Pittsburgh -7.5 Cleveland - Intrigueing. Browns played tough against the Colts...But Lost. Then they Lose to the Texans. ill take Steelers.
Monday Night Football
11/14 9:05 ET At Philadelphia -3 Dallas - Dallas. Philly is falling apart fast.

Well, at least my superbowl picks have either the best record or are tied for the best record in their conferences. [indy and atlanta]

11/13 4:15 ET At Atlanta -9 Green Bay - I dont see Warrick Dunn having a good game. GB has good run D. Atlanta Still wins.

I dunno...think Atlanta can beat the giants, Cowboys, or Panthers? Guess they have a good shot.

Also Atlanta has the best run Offense cuz of vick lol. I didnt say GB would stop him. Ill retract what I said. Dunn should have a pretty good game. But It wont be a Great day for dunn. he'll probally break 100.

pez.. another upset for houston? they didnt get the first yet they beat the Browns in Houston that was to be expected lol

Brooks bollinger isnt even likely to finish this season let alone take over for chad one day. Last I heard Fielder was taking over this year as soon as he was healthy enough.

GB gives up over 100 a game on the ground.. Warrick will do 120+ ATL does not have the best run game but the best run stats because they have 3 guys contributing.

Dan, like pez said priest isnt that big to lose. LJ is an absolute beast and will likely never be a backup in this league again.. I very much see Priest coming back next year for them in a #2 role. Where he will still be featured heavily but LJ will carry the load.. this is best for the team and priest as hes so damn fragile.

also are you saying westbrook or dawkins or both are the best players in the league? either way your nuts lol.

Oh and not only is Bulger back, but Holt and Bruce should be back as well

Maybe about the Eagles game, but the Cowboys have stopped Alexander, Portis, Tolminson, Barber in the running game, and I dont think Westbrook will do anything against the run defense of Dallas. They're defense is top 5 in the league right now, and considering the running game Philly has produced, I cant see Westbrook doing much against Dallas.
If the passing game flourishes againt Dallas, maybe, but thats a big surpraise also, considering Philly didnt do anything against the pass defense of Dallas.
My prediction is that unless Dallas ****s up royally in the offense dept, or that the Philly defense plays really well, I think Dallas will win.
Then again, I'm a dallas fan, and its the Eagles, and Dallas has always lost against the Eagles for 5+ years. Im not so sure.

Yeah i know that, and i know LJ is great, but i still think Buffalo wins. No i'm not saying Westbrook or Dawkins are the best players in the leaugue. I'm saying Dawkins is the best player on the Eagles(and my favorite) and possibly the best on the field in the Dallas game, and one of the best Defensive players in league. How did you get best player in the league out of "best player on the field in this game IMO''?

Oh and when i said Westbrook would have a big game.. i didnt mean running. lol, i meant as a WR since he's much better off the screen passes and all that. I thought it was obvious because why would i say a RB on the Eagles would have a big rushing game, when the Eagles suck at rushing and do run the ball at all?

I'm not saying the Eagles will win definately, but im not gonna say they're gonna lose either. I know that it will be close though. I just have a feeling, i dont know. I think they will come out and play great defense, and not great offense, but enough offense. I'll think they play like they have something to prove(and they do, actully.)

GO EAGLES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

well.. THey did do a good job with Alexander holding him to only 3 yards per carry. Saying a team stoped Portis just means they arnt the 9'rs because everyone has stoped him. LT and Barber simply didnt get the ball. LT ran for just under 4 yards per carry and a score and they didnt even throw him the ball which is one of his greatest weapons (like westbrook whos the master of it) and Barber went for over 4.5 yards a carry but just didnt get a ton of attempts because they had to make that comeback with little time so it was through the air. I will also point out what other BAD RB's did to the cowboys.. Barlow got 5.4 yards a run and when he was resting Gore was busy picking up 6 yards a run.. the 9'rs made that D look pathetic. Lamont (who is very good) went for 4.8 and 100+ and a TD on them.

Dan I think i just stoped reading after "on the field" not sure why lol cause i missed the "in this game"

Oh I guess I just Assumed Browns were favored..... but Still houston looks horrible imo. Browns look better to me.

Really? Maybe Brooks Bollinger just looks good compared to Vinnie Testaverde.

As for Westbrook...yeah he's a nice Option in the Pass...which is why I am stoked about Chris Perry. I think he is gonna be the Bengals' "Brian Westbrook".=D

.....man that was horrible. The Vikings did not deserve to win that game.
Eli Played horrible lol.

lol Arizona and Lions was interesting.... all of a sudden Joey Harrington is a world beater! That wont last long.

NE got a scare too =)

GO VIKINGS BABY!!! It dont matter if we deserve it or not. We won, and thats all that matters. Darren Sharper was beast! 3 INTs!! Are defense did pretty darn good too, and so did our special teams. GO VIKINGS!!!

Yeah Mewelde Moore did good =)

Man I knew GB was gonna end up upsetting someone lol. Surprised it happened this week though, and how bout them Bucs? Chris Sims played surprisingly well....still Im not a believer in Sims.

This week has been weird...the way things are going, youd think the browns have a shot tonight! (I wouldnt mind if the Steelers lost), yet I doubt they do. =) Definately a strange week

oh btw...Warrick Dunn didnt do too bad....he averaged over 4 yards a carry. Just didnt break 100.

ATL was down 14 to 0 quick so they were already playing from behind to lean to heavy on dunn and the run game.

yeah I know.

Man browns ran outta gas in a hurry lol.

i hate bill cowher i starter staley over droughns last night and the steelers are the only team that manages to allow droughns to score and he lied and staley was not the featured back for the steelers

yeah I started Julius Jones myself.. and Willis Mcgahee. man i had a bad week. Of course the Denver Broncos Defense ST won it for the other guy,

Yeah, I dont think Jones wont start for the rest of the season. It's soo funny, that this guy was the reason they had a decent ending to the season last year, and now they replace him with Barber because of 2 games.

The game was soo bad tonight. I turned it off after the halftime. Just to show you how a game can change so drastically. One point though, is how tough Keyshawn Johnson is. Lewis decked him, and Johnson just shrugged it off. Thats being tough.
