The highlight reel is something new this season. It is simply a few observations from the previous week's (or night's) games.
Thoughts and prayers for the Herrion family.
Have you ever seen so many empty stadiums while real NFL players were playing football?
Patrick Ramsey throws the slowest passes in the NFL. This may be some sort of optical illusion caused by the combination of colors in Redskins uniforms, but I don't think so. His passes actually seem to be going in slow-motion... during the live part of the telecast.
Pre-season scores are so misleading. For example, the Patriots' starters left at halftime with a 24-16 lead. The Saints won 37-27. New Orleans got a moral victory, but does anyone really believe the Patriots would lose to the Saints when it counted?
Roethlisberger still looks rookie-ish. Draft Bettis!
The Vikings aren't missing Randy Moss. Burleson, Taylor, and Robinson looked REALLY good. But penalties are still a big part of Vikings' games.
I like the new Cardinals uniforms and the new angrier bird logo. But what really makes them unrecognizable is their many appearances in the end zone.
Is the Raiders' offense that good, or is the Texans' defense still that bad? The Bronco fan in me says the Texans are still that bad. Manning should get 10 TDs against the Houston defense this year.
Eli Manning went 3/9 for 150 yards and 2 TDs. Subtract his 2 TD passes and it looks like this; 1/7 for 19 yards. I guess this is what they mean by 'flashes of brilliance'.
McNabb went 6/9 for 107 yards. Without T.O. In 1.5 quarters. Good luck with that new contract T.O.
Don't look now, but the Broncos are scoring TDs from inside the 10. They went 2 for 3 against the Niners, 67%. That's about 5 times as good as their percentage was last year.
Speaking of Broncos, their battle at the running back position is incredible. Mike Anderson, Tatum Bell, and Ron Dayne are all putting up big numbers. And it is really messing up my Fantasy Draft RB list. Whoever becomes the starter should have a big year.
And let me be the first; Goodbye Mr. Clarett, is was interesting.
