I had 11 on them. I've lost 2 games thus far...26 points. Ugh.

God how I hate the Jacksonville Jaguars and everything that is assoicated with them.

A Dallas and NO winning combination will leave me sitting pretty though!

I think it's bush league to wait until just before the snap. Im a Raiders fan and I think it's bush league. I understand freezing the kicker, but I think the rule should be changed similar to a basketball freethrow... you cant call a timeout just before the ball is released from the shooters hand.

Cutler was not fantastic. He was slightly below functional and he couldnt hear the play Shanahan was calling...AT HOME? Come on. That's two timeouts that shouldnt have been burned and cost them because the last drive, they didnt have any left and Cutler ended up throwing a pick. Marshall was out of this world today, but Cutler did not impress me at all.

Stupid Bronco's cost me 13 points in pick em. Than again thats 13 points I'm happy to lose! I finally won with Sports Select today picking ties in the Baltimore/Arizona, Miami/Jets, and Seattle/Cinci game today. Whoohoo thats $92.48 on a $2 bet that I'll cherish for life baby!

What game were you watching?

How many times did the guy throw across his body with unbelievable velocity and accuracy bailing the team out of potential sacks?

Wow.

Wow.

I watched the same game as you did. The guy has more Int than TD this season... he doesnt manage the game very well and he middle of the pack when it comes to starting QBs. He's got two great receivers and a great slot receiver and he's thrown 3 TD this season against the Raiders, Jaguars and Bills? He doesnt even have the pressure on him because of the run game.

Throwing the ball across his body while running out of the pocket means nothing when you cant manage a football game.

For a 2nd year starter, he's got potential, but he's not the savior that Broncos fans want him to be.

[Sylvanfan]

And that was damn near 5 too many! Although I shouldn't have put 7 on the Cleveland/Oakland game...I should have known better.

Savior? I didn't realize the Broncos needed one.

Jacksonville and Oakland are two of the best defenses in the NFL. I'm not sure where I'm supposed to find the shame.

They are 2-1 BECAUSE of Cutler, not in spite of him....and I don't think that can be argued.

[HOOT]

Anyone watching this Dallas/Chicago game?

Wow is Dallas ever getting the short end of the stick from the refs. By my count there has been three horrible, like really really bad, calls against them.

[Machiavelli]

Some pretty bad drops from Crayton with the broken pinky. It's just like T.O.'s problem last season (but at least he caught a lot of TDs).

What was up with the timing of the clock before the half?

[HOOT]

Well the COwboys should have gotten to have one more play before the half ended but the ref wound the clock on a 4th down play when it should have been stopped because of the offense/defence change. Just a mistake by the ref, hopefully it doesn't come down to that possible miscue by him.

Also there has been a few ghost calls for 10 yard penalties, then you look at the replay and wonder how they can even call that from any angle.

Broncos/Colts should be a good game next week, intrested to see if the Colts run defense can keep playing strong against the biggest test of the season so far. Colts haven't lost a game since December of last year.

I like the Colts in that game.

I think they matchup really, really well with the Broncos.

Addai should have a big game.

I do think that it will be a high scoring shootout. 41-28 type of score.

Is it Brian Griese time yet?

He can't do any worse that Grossman has.

[Flickered Flame]

Are the Cowboys the best team in the NFC? And are they a legit contender after 3 weeks?

[KTown]

I'm going to say Miami is officially the worst team in the NFL. Maybe buffalo but I;m not sure

Dallas has looked amazing and Romo has looked like a top 3 QB. Manning, Brady, Romo.

Who'd a thunk we'd ever see those three names in one sentence?

This time last year, the Cowboys were stuck with "The Robot/Statue" aka Bledsoe at QB and were going nowhere fast (like Bledsoe ). Romo is an instant energy guy who excites his teammates and his fans.

Romo's arm strength and intelligence has surprised me...I've been a Cowboys fan throughout the Aikman, Cunningham, Leaf, Wright, Carter, Stoerner, Henson, Testaverde, Bledsoe and now Romo years...I have never been quite so excited by a Dallas quarterback. Of course, Aikman was a enormously talented prototypical precision pocket QB who knew how to use the talents around him. He was unflappable and was a natural leader. Romo is definitely not an Aikman type QB but has the leadership skills and is willing to do whatever it takes to succeed.

Just popped into my head while reading this.
