I blame a lot of it on the coaching if they only kick that fieldgoal on the first drive of the game instead of being greedy really cost them in my opinion.

Plus Childress needs to get over the Favre crush and start feeding the ball to the beast known as AP. AP broke so many tackles he was incredible.

But he couldn't break tackles at the 1. They fed him twice, 3rd and 4th down.

Thats the time to run a play action, they sold out for the run. AP got them there, not Favres arm.

Titans just executed the weirdest onside kick ever.

Have the ball with 50 seconds left and down 8.

Champ Bailey saves the Broncos on Seattle's opening drive. Sure wish I was watching!

KC wins ugly but get themselves to 2-0 on the season. That equals the total they put up two years ago for the entire season! If they get lots of help, they could have a 2 game lead in the Division.

Denver taking Seattle out to the woodshed in the 1st half. Look a lot better than I thought they would.

And who are these Redskins? Amazing what difference a real head coach can make eh Snider?

That challenge by Pete Carroll that Royal dove and the ball went behind for a touchback was a good one, but the officials didn't give it.

Thoughts?

Moss just made a sick one handed catch for a TD

Didnt see it. No idea if this applies or not but there are some situations where challenges are not allowed.

And yes...randy Moss can be as good as anyone who ever played the game...but his pity me attitude just makes it hard for me to like the guy.

Too me it was very very close. Think the forearm touch the ground though when the ball flew out. Making the call on the field the right call.

The challenge was accepted but the play stood.

Eddie Royal stretched out to dive for the endzone but was short and ball was fumbled through the endzone. However the officials rules on the field that a Seattle defender touched Royal's foot as he was going down. On the slow-mo replay it looked like the defender missed but the ref didn't reverse the call.

The forearm did indeed touch the ground, but no one had touched him yet. But it was very very close. It's hard to tell on a replay whether someone touches someone else or not.

I just thought it was a great challenge. Not alot of coaches would have thought of that.

When did the NFL appoint Jets fans as referees? Play is over, no call, Jets fans react, 5 seconds later ref throws a flag. Twice so far.

Pats fans complaining about the other team getting calls??

Its a new world.

Big loss for the Jets though as Revis never came out of the locker room after halftime as he was grabbing at his hammy after the Moss TD.

Look for Brady to open it up downfield.

I thought the defender clearly had touched Royals ankle which caused him to fall in the first place. It's a play that likely is worth a challenge as the turn around on that is huge if he does get it.

I thought about picking up Hasselback in a fantasy league as I didn't like my QB matchup. Than I saw how bad he's been against Denver in his career and decided to gamble on Cutler against Dallas. Good move by me....too bad I did start Chris Johnson who got eaten up by the Steelers. Mind you he wasn't any worse than Jarome Harrison, so even money on that I guess.

Jeebus. McNabb is lighting up Houston. 18-23 for 340 yards, 1 TD and the game is still in the 3rd quarter. 27-10 Redskins leading the Texans.

The Raiders are a completely different team with Gradkowski at QB. No idea why they wanted Campbell so badly.
