Postby oVo on Sun Sep 09, 2012 10:48 am

Looks like the Redskins have a QB... Brees and Rodgers both tossed INTs
late in the game providing separation in their opening day home losses.
Sanchez finally penetrates the end zone. An Eva Longoria joke heh!

DAL @ NYG
IND @ CHI
PHI @ CLE
STL @ DET
MIA @ HOU
ATL @ KC
JAX @ MIN
WASH @ NO
BUF @ NYJ
NE @ TEN
SEA @ ARI
SF @ GB
CAR @ TB
PIT @ DEN giving Peyton the nod over Big Ben here at Mile High
CIN @ BAL
SD @ OAK

11-5

The G-Men were definitely favored at home in the opener
and I figure there was no shortage of NYG picks.

RG3 mania has begun in DC, and I've drank the kool-aid after that performance. I really wanted to temper my expectations after 20 years of mostly failure. But man, he can play. He got hit a bit more than I would have liked, but at the same time, he only exposed his body in desperate situations, and for the most part he did an amazing job in them.

The Hail Mary touchdown on the final play of the Green Bay/Seattle game last night was an insane finish to a weekend of tight games. I figure it was only a completion for the TD because both players were in the end zone. If the same play occurred outside the goal it might have been ruled an interception.

Hey Packers, forget the INT, knock it down and this conversation doesn't happen.
Climaxed by worst week of NFL picks ever.

I missed most of these crazy games, in fact, I haven't seem too many games this year.
