I mean, he's got the skill, just needs to get the experience to use that skill accordingly. And that's not going to happen when you put him in 3rd and long's on EVERY drive.
But Childress is supposed to be an offensive guru, and has his "kick ass offense" running in full gear. I wonder how long till I have to wear one of these with my jersey.

Tarvaris only looks at one reciever though. He'll take the snap and stare at his one target, regardless if there is another reciever open on the opposite side of the field. For every great throw he has, he has another that is way off target. I think the Vikes really blew it by not going after a more capable QB. They could have gone after Chad Pennington for cash.

Defencive struggle in Minn so far. EJ Henderson is playing really well.

revenge of the Fins? Dolphins having their way with the Pats early. 14-6.

Looks like AP is finally getting some touches now in the 2nd quarter. Should be a good 2nd half.

[habernac]

21-6 now. at least I have Ronnie Brown starting in my fantasy pool today.

Hell has frozen over???

I know its early but Miami looks awesome this week what a turn around. I am starting to remember how much I love this game.

Now we just have to finish it. Can't let up.

We start with the ball in the second half lets make it 28-6!!!

NE defence is getting shredded. This is not the fault of Cassel and the offence.

they aren't exactly tearing it up out there either.

[Flames in 07]

Randy Moss quits on a ball ... I recognize that guy.

I'm quite surprised with Oakland hinging around vs Buffalo.

[Pagal4321]

Did Minnesota just score on a PASSING touchdown....to Shaincoe?

Am I dreaming?

[Flickered Flame]

The Fins with another TD! Ronnie Brown to Fasano. That direct snap play to Brown is working like a charm today for the Fins. 28-6!

[Flickered Flame]

Brown with a 62 yard TD run 35-13 Fins!

[Machiavelli]

^ Just some crazy goings-on in New England

Just total domination by the Fish. They look great- superb blocking up front, Pennington keeping things simple and leading the offence like a veteran, awesome play-calling, D putting lots of pressure on Cassel.

As a Dolphins fan, I am both totally psyched and completely shocked. It's like the jerseys are reversed. Woot!!!

[habernac]

Kevin O'Connell coming in for the Pats, Cassel is done for the day.

[Flickered Flame]

Henne is now in at QB for the Fins. I would like to see Ricky get the ball a couple more times, he only needs a couple of yards for 100 on the day. Ronnie is already well over 100 today.

[Super-Rye]

Holy, the Titans are 3-0! That defense is just scary!

[OILFAN #81]

Great start. Less then 4 minutes in, Manning to Harrison for a 4 YD TD. 7-0 Colts!

[Deegee]

Great game in Buffalo today. Bills turn the Ball over 3 times, but unlike the last few seasons, fans stay in their seats because they know this year's edition of the Bills just do not quit.

6 minutes left down by 9, Bills drive down the field with authority and get a major. Quick 3 and out and Buffalo gets the ball back with 3 minutes left. Bills execution combined with poor clock management by Oakland allows for a game winning field goal with no time left to end the game.

Wow!

[Displaced Flames fan]

What a catch by Marshall here. Ref called him out, it will be reversed.

Looked a lot like the Toomer catch in OT for the Giants, only for a TD.
