Just thought I'd make a new thread a little more light hearted than all the political posts. I do love a good heated discussion, but I love some football too!!!

How about the Cowboys? My god they won finally! One of the most talent packed teams in the NFL have looked like a bunch of high school kids for the past several weeks! They basically lucked out this week with the win against the Bucs. The horse collar penalty saved them on what would have been a punt and Tampa would have run the clock out.
The Titans (Ten. not the Gurkahs ha) proved to me Monday night that they truely are a tough team that has the heart to be a serious contender even without Vince Young. (who was my back up in my fantasy football league damnit! haha)

I'm glad that the one game I'm going to this season was this past Sunday as my Panthers hosted the Cardinals. I was worried going in, and it didn't look promising after the first half. I really like the way we turned that around. With a soft 3 weeks ahead of us (bye, Raiders, Lions), we look to be in good shape for a difficult final six games. I still think my pre-season prediction of 10 wins might be difficult unless we can somehow figure out a way to cut down on penalties. It's all about getting to the playoffs. After that, anything can happen.

Puro, I don't think we would agree on anything. I hate those Cowboys ;) Although I did have Romo and T.O. on my fantasy team last year, which was great except that the eventual champ had Brady and Moss :) You've got a lot of firecrackers on that Cowboy team. Are you worried that they may lose their cool with Romo out, or do you think they'll pull it together in time for the playoffs? That's a tall order considering the teams in the NFC East.

ummm milk it..

I'm sticking to my pre-season statement that a 5-win season for my Dolphins would be very satisfying, even though they've surprised me by winning 3 already. Anything more than that is gravy.

I think this Cowboys team just has too much drama to be consistent on the field. They're the Eagles of past years. I wonder what the connection might be . . . hmmmmm . . . Actually, that's not entirely fair. It wasn't all TO; McNabb seems to be a magnet for drama. Or he was until this year, anyway.

I don't mind rooting for the Panthers a little, but I really think they just got a bit lucky on Sunday. If they played 3 times, AZ would win twice. But they're still a franchise that's just kinda learning how to win, so they'll have weeks like this. Somebody's going to luck into playing them those weeks; this time, it was the Panthers.

Well Romo will more than likely only miss the Giants game and then the Bye week and should return for the Washington game. I'll have to just wait and see how they play with him back. I don't hold out much hope for this weekend against New York, but I hope they can mount a stunning comeback with Romo back under center. They need it at this point to stand any kind of a chance.

I have Romo, TO, Witten, and Nick Folk on my fantasy team this year. Witten and Folk are the most reliable ones out of that group. I also have Hines Ward, Randle El, Amani Toomer, and Michael Pittman so I've got a fairly solid team but just struggling a bit.

P.S. There is one thing we agree on, I also am fond of the Onyx Reserve! haha

My team is the Cleveland Browns. I just hope to one day to see them in the playoffs. It won't be this year. Maybe next year. Anyway, my workhorse in fantasy has been Clinton Portis. This guy is racking up the fanstasy points this year. My team is 5-3, not so bad. This is my first year playing fantasy and It would be cool to win. I'm curious how your teams are doing.

my home town team:
the Cincinnati Bengals...

they have an honest chance of setting a record this year:
0-16


im so proud.

Nah. I think you're safe, kuzi. The Bengals have more talent than the Dolphins did last year, and even they managed to win one.

Don't go stealing our record, Kuzi! I remember when the Panthers (2000?) went 1-0 to start the season, then rattled off 15 straight losses. These weren't blowout, never-in-the-game type losses, either. These were leading-the-game-inside-2-minutes heart-breakers. It would have been far less frustrating if they had been blowouts. I hated that season.

the Bengals have a history of snatching defeat out of the jaws of victory.

WHO DAT! No, really. I root for the Saints. Even if we're having an awful year so far (Reggie Bush out on injury, use of disallowed drugs by Deuce McAllister and others) I'm still hoping. Besides, they went to LONDON last week. And WON. That's all I really need.

Hail to the Redskins, Hail to Victory ...

3rd best record in football. Damn shame the best record is in the East as well.

Don't the Titans have the best record?
