[raiderrodney]

Raiders looked decent against the Browns but at the cost of losing Jason Campbell for the season Hue better get on the phone and get Garrard in and soon!

Dear Matthew Stafford,

We, your loyal Detroit Lions fans, would like to make two (2) requests of you:

Firstly, that you stop throwing like a wuss. We understand that a football is a heavy item, much like loaves of bread and boxes of facial tissue, but we please ask that, when your receiver is 20 yards away and has his hands at chest level, you do not throw the ball so it hits his feet.

Secondly, concerning your receivers.... You have on your team a player by the name of Calvin Johnson. Perhaps you have met him in the locker room at some point. Possibly unbeknownst to you, Mr. Johnson leads the NFL in touchdown receptions. We, the Lions fans, feel that it might be beneficial to the score of the game if you would throw the football to Mr. Johnson sometime in the first half of the game. Chances are good that he would A: Catch the ball, regardless how high over the defenders' heads you may throw it, and B: score a touchdown.

Now, we understand the game of football is complex and takes a physical toll on many of those involved. However, we feel that, as a professional, you should be able to go the length of the game without giving up halfway through the second quarter. If you would indulge us by at least listening to our suggestions, we thank you.

Sincerely,

The State of Michigan,
and Detroit Lions Fans Everywhere.

I hope that is real...

Just something I wrote up quick when I got home from hunting and watching the game with my Dad.

Had I not been tired, I probably could have expounded a little more. But feel free to send it to him, if you'd like.

Hahah, thats good stuff man. And i totally agree. Honestly at this point id like to see them start hill. Bench stafford. Shit Hill won 5 games last year.

I dont know what the deal is but stafford does not look like the same guy that started the season. He doesnt look like he even wants to be there. What happened to the pumped guy jumping and yelling on the field and throwing the 30 yard bullets.

 

[Bud92gsx]

So a third wau done with football today..

Miami almost won..

Minnisota ends up winning..

STL is gonna beat the saints, who last week won by 50+ points..Adn this is STL's first win of the season..

Houstan will win...

Colts will loose again..


Still to come..Steelers and patriots, and Denver and the Lions..Cowboys and eagles tonight..

And the chargers and KC on monday night..

 

[MrBoxx]

Looks like the Lions are back in action.

 

[Bud92gsx]

The lions did kick some ass today..


Do I think they have a shot at the playoffs..Maybe..We'll see how the rest of the 8 weeks go..

Do I think they have a shot at the superbowl..Definatly not, at this point..

 

[ktgurl87]

Looks like the Cowboys are playing the same... sorry asses

 

[Bud92gsx]

What can you do agaist micheal vick and there weapons..Even tho dallas is supposed to be the best run defense in the league..

 

[ktgurl87]

Yeah but I bet that defense is wore out seeing as how they're on the field more than that damn offense. Romo can get to 4th down pretty damn easily it looks like. Damned interceptions, incomplete passes, sacks... I'm gonna give up and go to bed here soon. Every once in a while they'll get their shit together and come back in the 2nd half... but I'm not sure about this game.

 

[Bud92gsx]

About to start the 4th quarter in the PHI Dallas game..It looks out of reach at this point for dallas..

This I was not expecting.Was expecting to see not a 1 sided game..

 

[JusMX141]

Steelers looked great.

 

[ktgurl87]

Damnit Justin... and I thought I liked you. Steelers fans are a different breed of football fans. Incredibly sore losers when they lose... but all in your face when they win. Arg.

Stupid cowboys. They're undeserving of capitalization.

Not what you were expecting? Seems like this happens every time they play each other! Lol

On the network it said that Andy Reid was something like 16-4* against the cowboys.

 

[JusMX141]

Damnit Justin... and I thought I liked you. Steelers fans are a different breed of football fans.

...the kind who knowingly support a team which has won more Superbowls than any other?

Not sure what you're looking for here.

 

[Bud92gsx]

The Guys calling the game also said something about either vick or reid being 8-0 after a bye week..

And Justin..The steelers may have more superbowls than anyone..But what's that trophy called again..Ohh yeah the Lombari trophy..Becuase the Packers have more Championships that anyone else..

Now all the kidding aside...I would About crap my pants, if both teams who went to the superbowl last year faced off again..


Tonight cheifs at Chargers...My pick is Chargers for the win..Even tho I want them to loose..

 

[91stocker]

Yea the packs have a real good chance of repeating this year. Rodgers stats this year are better then any qb ever. They are going to be hard to stop.

Detroit looks like a possible playoff team. They have the bears after the by week and greenbay twice. See how all that goes.

 

[Bud92gsx]

If detroit is a playoff team..You will have to consider how they do against the pack in the two scheduled games..

Because I don't see the pack not getting into the playoffs..Which means it will most likely come down to detroit and pack for the division..

 

[JusMX141]

And Justin..The steelers may have more superbowls than anyone..But what's that trophy called again..Ohh yeah the Lombari trophy..Becuase the Packers have more Championships that anyone else..

Blah blah blah.

Just like nothing mattered before 1989 when the first DSM was built, nothing mattered before January, 1967 when the first Super Bowl was played.

 

[Bud92gsx]

Ha ha ha ha..Since you brought it up Can you remind me again who won the first super bowl....

 

[Kyle_T]

How 'bout them Packers!

 

[herms99gst]

Packers?..hahah how bout them cowboys!!! 5 by the way.

 

[91stocker]

You guys missed a hell of a game in detroit today. 35 points in the second half. Great game.

If detroit is a playoff team..You will have to consider how they do against the pack in the two scheduled games..

Because I don't see the pack not getting into the playoffs..Which means it will most likely come down to detroit and pack for the division..

Haha never said they'd win once they got there

Pack's d will step up once the games start to matter and i dont see any reason why they wont repeat.
