NFL Week 3

   What a week so far in football, only Redskins vs. Cowboys to go. The Mighty Buffalo Bills defeated the pass happy Patriots in a 34-31 upset. I knew this Bills team could beat the Patriots, the only loss was that of rookie cornerback Aaron Williams out of Texas. Williams was one of a few trying to make a tackle on Wes Welker, who had a career day receiving (16catches - 217yds - 2tds), and his teammate fell hip first on his neck, forcing him to leave the game via stretcher.  Baltimore's rookie receiver Torrey Smith had his way with the unorganized Ram secondary in just the first half, with three touchdowns for 154 yards on only five catches. Two of these touchdowns were for over forty yards. This kid has a future in baltimore with the absence of Derrick Mason and Todd Heap in the passing game and they brought in Lee Evans but Evans hasn't been the same since he played alongside Eric Moulds and company in Buffalo. Seattle beat Arizona, who cares that the Seahawks aren't great this year, but like a wise man i know says, "They retired number 12, for the fans, for a reason." Miami lost to Cleveland and that game stayed at miami 13-10 for what seemed like forever. Lions beat the Vikings in a nail biter, with the Vikings being up 20-0 at the end of the first half. So as I've said there are three teams that are good this year and if Washington wins tonight, all three will be undefeated. If I would of said these three teams two years ago would be undefeated this year people would of said, "WHAT? your crazy!" They are Detroit, Buffalo, and Washington. Is it possible that Detroit could be the NEW City of Champions? can the Lions pull of a Super Bowl victory this year? Can the Tigers win the World Series? Can the Red Wings get back to greatness? Could all three happen this year? I think it could, and it might. Steelers barely pull off a win in Indianapolis. People seem to forget that the Colts have a great pass rush, Antoine Bethea is a great Pro Bowl safety, and that in the last two years they have drafted two defensive tackles to fix there HUGE problem at stopping the run and they are decent at it. Once again though, a win is a win. Poor Kansas City, the injury bug just keeps biting those Chiefs. Add Brandon Flowers to the list of injuries to starters. San Diego takes advantage of there injuries and becomes 2-1. San Francisco wins in a low scoring battle against Cincinnati. The biggest story to me was that Cam Newton's explosion was put out with a monsoon in Jacksonville. Granted he did get his first win, Newton only threw for 158 yards and a touchdown. A shootout occurred in New Orleans between the Saints and Texans. Came down to the wire, but the Saints pulled it out. The big story in the fantasy world was the Giants smashing the Eagles in a 29-16 win where they rammed the ball down the Eagles throat and took Vick out of the game, twice. Kafka came in and threw two interceptions, when the eagles needed him to keep possession the most and just manage the game. Well my hand is on the fritz again so i'm calling it a night. LETS GO 'SKINS! I'm going to be adding another blogger to my site. Hope you enjoy his posts as much as mine.
