New England: 27 Indianapolis: 24 Tampa Bay: 10 Washington: 16 Arizona: 10 St. Louis: 17 Oakland: 21 Pittsburgh: 24 Cincinnati: 24 NY Jets: 31 Seattle: 21 New Orleans: 7 San Diego: 27 Houston: 20 Baltimore: 3 Cleveland: 20 Detroit: 20 Chicago: 16 Jacksonville: 13 Buffalo: 10 Atlanta: 21 San Francisco: 19 NY Giants: 17 Philadelphia: 31 Dallas: 17 Minnesota: 35 Tennessee: 17 Miami: 7 Kansas City: ? Denver: ? ------------- What games did you guys watch? I watched the Jets/Bengals game and the Eagles/Giants game, the Eagles being my third team behind the 49ers and the Colts. I didn't really have a favorite in the Jets/Bengals game, though I was impressed by the Jets; and obviously I was rooting for the Eagles during their game. Too bad the 49ers lost... Not that I predicted otherwise. Looked like they were coming back in the fourth quarter -- but, c'mon, who throws a fucking interception in the red zone? Better luck next week against the Saints. I'm keepin' the faith, LDV! Who's checking out the Cheifs/Broncos game tonight?

We saw a good number of the games through the day. Of course we settled for the Eagles for the late game. I think the biggest suprise - from those that I saw - was how bad the Bucs looked. Offensively they could do nothing and defensively they we not shutting Washington down. The score was not as close as the game IMO. I didn't see the Baltimore game, but that was hugh upset. I was glad though since I hate the Ravens. But still for Cleveland to shut down J. Lewis like they did - last year in two games he ran for over 500 yards. Again I didn't see that one but a 'happy' end result. The Giants looked pitiful - they are in for such a long year as they groom Manning.

Originally posted by MaryCas: Is the Eagle offense that good, or the Giant defense that bad?? The Giant defense seemed clueless. Many runs and catches with no one around for five yards. Probably a little bit of both - weighted a bit more towards the Giants defense being that bad. The third Owens TD - he was standing all alone in the end zone - how does that happen ? Did anyone see the hit on Eli at the end of the game  OUCH !! Welcome to the NFL. And earlier the hit that Trottier put on the punter Feagles - he knocked him silly.

That hit alone is reason enough that Coughlin shouldn't be shuttling between Warner & Eli so early. What if Eli had gotten hurt? Could you imagine the NY media ripping into (rightfully so) Coughlin for inserting Eli into a meaningless, unwinnable game? It would have been one thing if Eli went in to mop up against SD, Houston, or Arizona. But Philly has one of the top ranked defenses.

Bit of a cheap shot to go after the punter, but hey, he knows the game, he's wearing pads. A little unethical. The hit on Eli was awesome though. Welcome to the NFL kid.
