Ugh. Terrible, terrible coverage by the Fins on a 4th and 11 for Buffalo. Edwards hits a wide open Parrish. 13-10 Fins with about 5 minutes to go.

Wow, my Lions lose Stafford to a shoulder injury (for the day I hope...UGGGGGHH) Our backup looks like he hasn't taken many snaps, with a 2nd year guy in I imagine hes taken very few. Which I believe he hasn't, but our D looks great so far wow! We've managed to keep a one point lead for an entire half so far. Come on Lions let's do this.

Terrible call in the Lions/Bears game. That was a TD and the refs took that win away from the Lions. Brutal.

Congrats to Houston on winning the game 34-24. Manning threw for over 400 yards and had 3 TD's, but the defense was absolutely horrible vs the Houston running game (credit to Foster as well on a monster day). Looking forward to facing the Giants next week.

Houston could easily take the wildcard spot this year.

The Lions got robbed. What a weird call by Gailey and the Bills. On 4th and 10 from their own goal line with less than 2 minutes to go, they decide to punt only to snap the ball right through the end zone to make 15-10 Miami. Did they really think they were going to recover an onside kick after conceding the safety? Just a weird call imo.

Looking sharp Oakland. Your run defense is the only thing you have in common with the Colts. Sigh... 13 points.

A win for my fish on opening week-end on the road.

Yes it wasn't pretty but whenever you play a divisional rival you can throw alot of things out the window.

Nest up the Vikes, YIKES!!!

I am not expecting a win next week.

Ryan McBean might get cut for giving the Jaguars the game today. Idiot.

Not sure they had much choice.. kicking out of the endzone from the one probably gets blocked. By doing it the way they did, they got the ball back with 30 seconds to go even when the onside kick didn't work.

----

The refs have been awful today, there were alot of reversals today as coaches kept challenging. Like the SF touchdown... the 2nd foot, knee, elbow, ass everything was a full yard out of bounds and the ref standing 2 feet away allows it! Seattle had to challenge to reverse it.

---

They just missed a blatant facemask on Rodgers, then he throws an interception

Great catch by Calvin Johnson to beat the Bears.

I would have just went for it on 4th down.

That wouldn't have been the worst thing either, except the Bills really suck. They couldn't move the ball a single yard in the first 3 plays. It actually wouldn't have been bad to run the ball on 1st down, get a little breathing room and catch the Dolphins off guard.

But it doesn't matter, well deserved win by the Dolphins.

Raiders were horrible today. Cable is in over his head as the team just wasn't prepared to play. The team isn't talented enough to overcome bad coaching. At least McFadden had a nice day but that was the only positive.

They missed a hold by Clifton on the same play.

Ugly hit on Leonard Weaver. Probably done for the year.

Kolb looks like garbage so far. Reid isn't doing him any favours by refusing to run the ball (as usual). I don't think throwing Vick into the game every second play is helping either.
