NFL so far

Anyone get in on the Vegas bet where they'll pay $5 on every $1 bet if the Pats go all through the season (including the Super Bowl) undefeated?

Oh, this just in:

Patriots suck.
Sox too.

THANK YOU JEFF, I though no one was gonna come through for them. I live in Pittsburgh and think we can give Brady a run if Big Ben, Ward, Holmes, and Parker all how up to the same game. And I also hate the Sox and wish the rockies woulda swept em.

Let's not be ridiculous... The Steelers are a good team, and enjoyable to watch, but they're not in the same class as the Patiots. They don't have as many weapons as NE, and their weapons aren't as strong.

You guys are welcome to bicker over who the third best team in the league is. But don't get silly.

Packers beat Kansas City in Kansas. Awesome. (Favre comes through again)....

Detroit trounces Denver

Minnesota trounces San Diego

Hey!! Maybe the NFC north ain't so bad...

New England played tough. Good game, but it's still a long season.

How about our local boy Tony Romo. Dallas looks good

Don't care about anyone else.

holy smokes single game rushing record held by a rookie.who would have ever thought a rookie would rush for 296.he did this against a pretty solid run defense(88.9 ypg going in) and with over a 1000 yds already he could break the single season mark.

I never said the steelers were the third best team in the league. I said they arent horrible and yes they do have a chance to beat the Pats, especially after the performance the steelers had last night along with what Brady did on Sunday. If the Steelers bring their A-game it will be interesting to see what happens.

[warbirdlover]

Packers 34, Vikes 0. Couldn't be better. Favre 300+ yards, 3 TD's and no interceptions, and Grant ran for 120 yards. Peterson got 45 yards...

He did get hurt today, hopefully not too serious. He's a freaking superstar already!

[FKA19]

did anybody see big ben today? man is he ever an althete. he can improvise in and out of hte pocket like no other QB in the league. excellent game from the steelers today.

[Lil_Huth]

Indeed I did see him and yeh he is the best QB in the league when throwing on the move or out of the pocket. It was a great game today and put the steelers as the only team at 7-2 I do believe, but I may be wrong. This is their division I am talking about, not the whole league.

Nope I was wrong, they are now tied with the colts at 7-2 and trailing behind the Pats at 9-0.

Sorry to disagree but NOBODY beats Brett Favre throwing on the move. NOBODY. Ben is only an average QB in comparison.

Sounds like he's going to be seeing that bench at close quarters for the next 3 or 4 weeks!

Yes he will. See the current injury report.

Sadly, it was for an RB with substantially less talent than the two you mentioned.

I'd feel a lot better about that if I had the 53 fantasy points in my pocket.


And for those who think "Big Ben" is even half the QB that Favre is:

"Pfffftttttt...!!!"
