Oakland Raiders @ New England Patriots ------>Patriots (no brainer)

Sun Sep 11, 2005

New Orleans Saints @ Carolina Panthers ------->Panthers (look who is going back to SB LX? Fantasy points for my DST/STS)

Cincinnati Bengals @ Cleveland Browns ------->Bengals (hey Coach we still lover you here in NE. Well, Brown are in the rebuilding process)

Seattle Seahawks @ Jacksonville Jaguars -------> Jaguars (Defense and Home field, too many drops from the Hawks)

New York Jets @ Kansas City Chiefs -------> Chiefs (We still love you Ty Law but now you are a Rival. Look for Priest to get free)

Denver Broncos @ Miami Dolphins -------> Broncos (Are the FIsh sure about startign Frerotte? OR who is starting at HB?)

Tampa Bay Buccaneers @ Minnesota Vikings ---> Vikings (At home and life without Moss... pretty Darn Goood0

Tennessee Titans @ Pittsburgh Steelers ------> Steelers (The pain of Salary Cap Burden: Kearse left a year ago, then D. Mason and ROlle.... too much loses to overcome for the Titans)

Chicago Bears @ Washington Redskins -------> Reskins (Defensive battle, Skins has the better Qb of the two)

Green Bay Packers @ Detroit Lions --------> Lions (AHHH.. I can't go against Favre,, but hey Packers has to prove they got defense. And lions are the Sleepers of 05)

Arizona Cardinals @ New York Giants --------> Giants (Eli is morecomfortable with the offense now. Oh...he is facing..... KURT usuallly pick defense over offense. Colts might be too good. I Hope Manning passes over 400 yrs - 5 Tds and J. Lewis runs over 150 yards.... lol.. both are on mY fantasy leagues team.)

Mon Sep 12, 2005
Philadelphia Eagles @ Atlanta Falcons --------> Eagles aka on MAdden football I call them e-girls for they are so cheesy ( think Falcons will take the revenge of NFC champ. game??? You are dead wrong. I hope Vick comes out healthy from this game)WAGNER. watch out. IF THE birds were playing home, I would pick them)

Dallas Cowboys @ San Diego Chargers ------> The BOlts i.e Chargers (Hard not to pick Cowboys. Just that Bledsoe is mR. Unreliable)

wow,

LT gets to score yet another Rushing TD. dam... what a BS NFL rule on "Fair Catch." No way Sproles would have caught that Ball afther he missed at first attempt. The ball was popping out away from him while he was falling backwards. Instead of giving the Steelers the Ball at "San Deigo 15" (might be little further), the chargers get the ball back with 15 yards added to the field position... and then completes the drive to take the lead. Oh well... Rule is a rule. So, its official the Chargers-the PAts- The steelers are on a 3 way tie :)

I was feeeling the Eagles were close to getting a blow out loss... and that's exactly what happened. Dam McNabb thinks he can complete every single pass and Mr. ego "Terrel Owens" thinks he can catch all of them. Stats.. shows TO had caught under 50% of the passes thrown towards his direction. That doesn't make him a bad player (he is still arguably amongst the best) but that don't help the team either. ANd those E-girls should have learnt from US patriots that it is very important to establish a Good running game. Westbrook is a BIGtime player on The ground. Maybe the Coach will think about giving Westbrook the ball about 20-30 times a day.

Those Skins are for real. Still they shouldn't get more than 10 wins.... they are in a tough division as well. Those Skins play tough-tight football games. And when you play Too tight games... you are expected to lose some of them. Boi...... didn't that failed two POINT conversion COupled with an earlier Blocked FG cost them the game?

And, a Good Birthday Present for Mr. IronMAN "Favre." 52 points..... dam the Saints suck that bad I didn't know. And now they will be out of service from their best player aka Deuce McAllister. Oh boi.. they might get Matt Leniart.

What a debut for Alex SMith (mr. #1 draft pick)? 75 yards with 4 ints. Peyton Manning can understand his feelings. But again, don't you guys think the COlts have the best Defense right now??? I would have thought the Pats had the best defense but we are without the service of more than half of our last year's starters. DAm.. Poole, Law, Harrisson, Bruschi, Johnson, Seymour and that Fat DT(keith something who is in Miami now).. that's 7 starters missing out of 11 from last year. Yet, The pats did just enough to beat them Falcons. I am thinking the Pats will have to win the games BY means of OFFense more than by means of the adjusting defense.

Buccs and Redskins are similar teams I think. Maybe the Buccs have slightly better offense. They play close games and as a result they will have to lose some of them. As I predcited... the Cardinals almost... Upset the Panthers. Yet, that wasn't going to be the day for Dennis green's team. Those two wides.. Boldin and Fitzgerald are making thier presence felt week after week.

I thought Vinny saved the day for the Jets. Maybe ex-patriots TY Law's INT return might have been the game-chanigng performance. Those Ravens should have signed Vinny. I can't believe the Supposedly BEST defense in NFL are going to be wasted this season. The Bengals are struggling on offense as of late..don't you guys think so? They scored only 16 pts against the TExans, and then lost to a good defensive Jacksonville Team. By the way what a lack of Awareness by Palmer and his blockers. They were already in a fg postion to tie the game. Only the thing they couldn't afford to do was TURN the Ball over. And, that's exactly what they did.

And I honestly think the "VICK-less" Falcons were Much more effficient on offense than the "VICk-with" offense. Former Virginia QB and now the NFL sophomore Matt Schaubb almost matched Two time Super Bowl MVP and future hall of famer Tom Brady stride for stride. 298 yards passing with 3 TDS and no INTS...... I don't think Vick can PRoduce those numbers against the Pats. And scoring 28 points is already a Big Up side for the Falcons. Just like I had expected..... Brady gets 3 Tds and lead the league this week on Passin Yards and TDS, and COrey Dillon passed 100 yards for the first time this season. and oh that God-given second chance 58 yards fg....... these are the things that make NFL more and more interesting.

JOsh McCown lead the league this week in Passing yards with 394 against the Panthers. I credited Brady in a hurry :)

People,

I think we should limit the Numbers of people to join the poll to whatever it is by now. Can't keep adding people week after week. We already have 17 members. That is great I think. Not trying to discriminate the football faithfuls... just trying to see if we can maintain some sort of ORder/disclipine. BTW I won't mind unlimited people contributing their time to post thier views here. What do you guys think?

I have to wait for the Injuries updates (latest) to cast my poll. I will get it tomorrow afternoon.

hey AX thanks for all the hardwork man.

Ole and Sven from International Falls, Minnesota die and wake
up in Hell. The devil stops in to check on them and sees them
dressed in parkas, mittens and bomber hats, warming them
selves around the fire.

The devil asks them "What are you doing? Isn't it hot enough
for you?" Ole replies, "Vell, ya know, ve're from nordern
Minnesooota, da land of snow an ice, an ve're yust happy fer
a chance ta varm up a little bit, ya know."

The devil decides that these two aren't miserable enough and
turns up the heat even more. When he returns to the room of
the two guys from Minnesota, the devil finds them in light jackets
and hats, grilling Walleye and drinking beer.

The devil is astonished, "Everyone down here is in abject
misery, and you two seem to be enjoying yourself." Sven replies,
"Vell, ya know, ve don't git too much varm veather up dere at
da Falls, so ve've yust got ta haff a fish fry vhen da veather's dis nice."

The devil is so absolutely furious that he can hardly see straight.
Finally he comes up with the answer. The two guys love the heat
because they have been cold all their lives.

The devil decides to turn all the heat off in Hell. The next
morning, the temperature is 40 below zero, icicles are hanging
everywhere, and people are shivering so bad that they are unable
to wail, moan or gnash their teeth.

The devil smiles and heads for the room with Ole and Sven.
He gets there and finds them back in their parkas, bomber hats,
and mittens. They are jumping up and down, cheering, yelling
and screaming like mad men.

The devil is dumb founded, "I don't understand, when I turn
up the heat you're happy. Now its freezing cold and you're still
happy.

What is wrong with you two?" They both look at the devil in
surprise and say, "Vell don't ya know, if Hell iss froze over dat must mean
da Vikings don von da Super Bowl."

Now the picks,

Atlanta at New Orleans...... Atlanta

Here I go again,

The injury reports are cracking me upp.. so I will just make my picks.
My week 6 favorites (another hard week for picking the favorites. Those at Vegas might be having hard tiems as well)


Atlanta at New Orleans...... Falcons (Saints are done. Ex-pats A. Smith starts at HB)
Carolina at Detroit........... Panthers (Panthers are yet to make an Statement)
cincinnati at Tennessee....... Bengals (Volek will start for Titans)
Cleveland at Baltimore......... Baltimore (Jamal been Running crzy against Brownies)
Jacksonville at Pittsburgh...... Steelers (Not sure big Ben is healthy. Its a home game)
Miami at Tampa Bay......... Dolphins (Carnell not 100%, RICKY is back)
Minnesota at Chicago....... Bears (hate to discrimante VIkes but Bears play Defense)
N.Y. Giants at Dallas........ Giants (Cowboyz owned E-girls but I think Giants will win)
Washington at Kansas City....Chiefs (Arrowhead Stadium is hostile for visitors)
New England at Denver........Patriots (Champs Injury will be costly)
N.Y. Jets at Buffalo............Bills (life shown by Holocomb. Vinny still not in full control)
San Diego at Oakland........ Raiders (I expect the Raiders to win the Shootout)
Houston at Seattle......... Seahawks (hasselbeck will get 30+ fantasy points)
St. Louis at Indianapolis..... Colts (Rams Secondary is Horrible. Colts 'D' is tough)

I guess Bears, Ravens, raiders, Giants and even MY pats are Under-Dogs for this week. I am picking steelers Hoping BIG bEN will play, I picked Dolphins hoping beleiving Carnell williams will not play that much + Ricky is back to INspire his team, I have Ravens because jamal Lewis loves to run against Brownies, I have Raiders because I think none from Chargers can stop MOSS, Bears because Dante is having an awful season + bears have good defense and are at home, I have Giants because they had looked really good on Offense despite the Cowboys whitewashing The E-girls, and I have the Pats because I believe my home-team will never lose.

Lets See if my Anti-Sean Salisbury like Logics will do me any good :)
