Whose turn is it to pick the game this week? I am gone for the week after tomorrow, so if whoever it is could pick it early I'd appreciate it...would hate to let Lost1 or Roberts take over first place. <g>

Maybe we should just go for the Bears' game for the fourth week in a row....

Flutie's QB ratings in his last three games are 23, 28, and 39. He's improving. -g-

You know the Freeman Effect (as in Antonio and his suckiness after the contract)? It's hitting the Falcons. Bob Whitfield was our only good lineman during a bunch of years when the line was bad. So, we gave him a big contract during the past off season. Now, the line is playing better (same players, new coach), and he is having the worst year of his career. Yesterday the whole line played very, very well, but Whitfield had a couple of penalties.

Gannon, Garcia, Warner and Manning are all ahead of Noodle Arm. And 13 interceptions in 9 games is four more than even Flutie has thrown in 10 games. He's done, and such a young man too...

Big deal, Fluties had a couple of bad weeks. I don't wanna sound like I'm making excuses for him but his OL sucks, the running game sucks and the playcalling sucks.

Turner calls a double reverse on the Chargers first possession, they score a TD, and then no more trick plays the rest of the game.

Cheers,

Stu

Your Puckers got lucky as sheet yesterday<NG>

I say if that QB had more experience he would have run it in for the second 2pt conversion and it would have been OT.

Not to mention the total bone heads on the Dertiot team that didn't challance tat other TD that was so obvious. As if Detroit didn't even want to win the game. Why ruin such a great record<GGG>
