Come on Chefs! Two TDs and two 2-pters and you can get this thing to OT!

Beautiful pass from Manning to Wayne for a TD! Helps me out in fantasy at least. Two point conversion ties it up.

So of the players I picked in my fantasy pools, my early picks are sucking and my late picks (who are primarily still on the pine) are dominating.

The first few weeks of a season are always so tough to know what may happen..

Tony Gonzalez gets the Chiefs on the board.

I was loving it!
Best 2nd round pick the Raiders have made. *foreheadslap*

When the camera scans up to Davis, Im hoping its to catch him in his final moments. He's THE destructive force behind the Raiders the past 5 years.

I wish they'd quit putting him on camera. I'm no Raiders fan nor am I an Al Davis fan, but that man has a whole lot to do with where the NFL is today. I know he's had his share of controversy (Marcus Allen) but I find it a bit sad that the camera seems to go on him more now than ever: When he is an obvious state of decline.

Lions tie it up - wow, didn't see that coming.

And take the lead with the PAT

Challenging the fumble.... I think Bush fumbled and cue the Raiders self destruct sequence.

As for Davis: He was a building block of the NFL... the merger, commish, owner, coach, etc... and showing him in decline is sad. BUT, he's so stubborn that he insists on staying on as GM, owner and supreme lord of the Raiders even though the game has passed him by.

If he fires Kiffen and names Ryan as HC, it's another example of Davis' recent slide. If Ryan doesnt work out, what coach in his right mind would take a job with a crazy owner like Davis. No one.

Aaron Rodgers first big test as the Packers starter. Down by 1 on the road in the 4th quarter. That's Favre time and everyone knows it. Rodgers will make his career much easier if he leads the Pack on a game winning drive here.

And the 'Skins take the lead by 5 with less than 4 minutes left.

This week is clearing up absolutely nothing other than the Bengals and Rams are bad.

Rich Gannon just felated Jamarcus Russell saying he grew up today and looked sharp.

6/17 for 55 yards.

Gannon is an idiot.

Ha. I was laughing at that too. His passing rating is going to be around 30.

Good thing the Raiders went for about 250 yards rushing in the second half. Dorsey has been invisible. The Chiefs managed to lose to the dysfunctional Raiders... toss them in the same category as STL and Cincy.

Well, at least the Bills did their part today.

The Jaguars are 0-2, right where they belong.

And I once again look like a genius for benching Brees in fantasy.

Captain comeback engineering the game winning drive again! Thank you Vinatieri for the bday present! Clutch, clutch, clutch = Vinatieri!!!!!! I was upset the first half but was saying we just need 1 score. As soon as it was cut to 15-7 I knew we had a chance. Great play by Gonzalez with the lateral to Wayne to get it to the 1 on the 1st TD drive, and a great play by Wayne to get open on the 2nd!! And then what can you say about Manning/Vinatieri. Clutch performers. Nice interview by Manning after the game saying "money in the bank" referring to Vinatieri! Thanks again for the bday present Colts! WOOOOOOOOOOO! Bring on the Jags next week in Indy!
