If you are the Saints (or a Saints fan), it is time to panic. Your team is 0-3 and playing Green Bay next week. The Saints D has been gashed by everyone thus far.
R.I.P. Steve Sabol.
After watching a bunch of that Philly/Arizona game, two things struck me. One, I'm morbidly attracted to how bad this Philly team is. Second, this Arizona team is for real, especially their defense.
In honour of the year I was born (1974), this year was the last time the Cardinals started 3-0.
The NFC West would seem to be the best division in football.
The Detroit/Tennessee game was the game of the day. Game-tying hail mary's, long returns for TD's, lateral's etc...good stuff, if you are a fan of offense.
On a related note, three games in, and RB Chris Johnson needs 55 more rushing yards to reach 100 (on the season !). That being said, that Tennessee O-line is not what it was a few years ago, Barry Sanders couldn't run behind this line.
Good job Baltimore's Torrey Smith. Not only did you play after the death of your brother, you played well. You've earned my respect.
With no Spiller or Jackson, the Bills sure looked mediocre on offense.
The officiating in the last 5 minutes of the Vikes/Niners game was dreadful. San Fran was given a challenge (when it was out of timeouts), and the ref mysteriously gave San Fran another timeout thus giving them two timeouts. They should had none of either.
The Vikes played their best game in a few years versus the Niners. The D was stout-ish, and Ponder made all the plays he had to. Kinda makes me wonder where this team was during the first weeks of the season. Gerhart still playing after his first 1-2 fumbles late in the game, is troubling (which resulted in him fumbling for a third time).
The Steeler/Raider game lasted until almost 8 pm. I can imagine the networks getting on the NFL for these games going so long, largely due to the officials and the repeated delays (with challenges, spotting the ball etc...) that drag some of these games.
Darrelle Revis is done for the year, good bye Jets playoff hopes.
When announcers refer to a players " ball skills ", am I the only one who finds this phasing rather weird ?
