Man was that Dolphins run defence ever terrible today. Oakland had 300 yards on them and that was with their starter Jordan leaving the game after the first half. Oaklands not a half bad team here, looks like Lane Kiffen has that team moving in a good direction. I think my poor Chiefs are going to end up the basement team in the division this year.

I like how the Raiders completely punked the Dolphins on 4th down with under a minute to go. Typical Raider move.

I think Kiffen is doing an excellent job. Porter looks good, Sapp really likes him and he's got the team (see: the offense) playing hard every week. Although he doesnt have big shoes to fill (Art Shell = worst head coach ever), he's really giving Raider Nation hope that we'll be back in a couple seasons.

As for your Chiefs, I wouldnt mind some one giving my Raiders a break and taking a turn in the basement.

They could have kicked a field goal, but they were on the 3 yard line with 30 seconds left and up by 11. If they kick the field goal, theyre only up by 2 scores. With a TD, theyre up by 3 scores and the game is over. Crazy things can happen at the end of the game - just playing it safe.

It was probably a sneak or a run up the middle and Culpepper changed the play at the line to a bootleg.

I dont see anything wrong with it.

How do the Bears give up a kickoff return TD on an onside kick?

One of the impressive things I saw about the Cowboys - on one of Patrick Crayton's TD Owens came flying up to give the final block. I hate TO and the 'Boys, but wow - they are looking good on both sides of the ball.

Well Denver played a decent first half. Let the blowout begin. Leave it to Denver to have over 200 yards rushing in a game and lose. It's going to happen.

Anyone watching the Broncos/Colts game? Is Henry's injury serious?

Manning to Wayne! 35-20 Colts over the Broncos in the 4th. Even with Harrison out, our offense is playing great. I'm really really loving Joseph Addai. He's stepped up huge this year.

And he's ripping it up in my fantasy pool. Nice . . .

Henry's back in so I guess my question above is no longer relevant. BTW...Denver just went over 200 yards rushing for the game. I'm pretty sure they're going to lose...so my predicition above is coming to fruition.

I would guess going for 200 yards on the ground and losing is a rarity to say the least.

Put a fork in San Diego. They're done. They HAD to win this game IMO.

So who would've predicted after week 4 the AFC West would look like this...

1. Denver 2-2
KC 2-2
Oak 2-2
4. San Diego 1-3

Is it over yet Dis. There wasn't a person on Earth who isn't a Chiefs fan who gave KC a chance in this game. Anyone pick up Dwayne Bowe and start him in their fantasy league this week?

come on, chargers, it's the friggin Chefs. You're 11 and a half point favourites because KC sucks. Ugh. Was on my way to a pretty decent week in the pool up to that point.

WOOT! 4-0 to start the season. Manning had another good game and Addai was great today. Hopefully the Harrison injury isn't too serious.

Next week's game vs Tampa Bay @ home should be a good test. Actually the next 3 vs TB, @ Jacksonville, and @ Carolina should be good before the matchup everyone is waiting to see on Nov 4th (rematch of last year's AFC Championship).

No kidding. A three way tie for first that doesnt involves San Diego and involves the Raiders... bizarro.

The Raiders had a little ray of hope today, although it was against the worst team in the NFL...so.... I hope Jordan isnt hurt too bad (his back), but if he is even after the bye next week, Rhodes comes back after his suspension. Theyre getting stronger.

Denver looked good for awhile against Indy, but didnt have an answer for the balanced offense.

KC - I dont know what to think. They have stunk really bad in their two losses but to beat San Diego, on the road? Wow.

The Chargers are done. I dont care how unbelievably talented your team is (especially the offense)... you cant get rid of your head coach, defensive and offensive coordinators and expect the transition to be seamless.

Thank you Chargers - just won a ton of money off the underdog pick! Poor LT.

Breaking news: The Cards are playoff contenders.

They're a fumble recovery (against SF) and a competent official (pathetic unecessary roughness call on A. Wilson last week vs. BAL that cost the Card's OT) from potentially being 4-0.

The Seahawks and Cards are going to be in a dogfight for the NFC West.
