Everyone should start Josh Freeman and as many Bucs WRs as possible in fantasy. They're gonna have a field day against our awful secondary.
Eric Maynor is the worst basketball player I've ever seen.

Anyone who is a big enough fan to get upset about it is too big a fan not to watch.

From this week's $.10:

3. Josh Freeman’s line at the two minute warning: 6-for-20, 39 yards, 1 TD, 1 INT. His second pass of the day went for a TD, and Freeman did not complete a pass that traveled longer than four yards until he hit Vincent Jackson for a big gain on 4th and 9 at the two minute warning on a play where the Bucs initially intended to punt and concede. Something about playing hard every minute, right Coach Schiano…


it's one of those resistible force meets movable object sort of matchups.

Really looking forward to this game vs. the Iggles. If the Giants D plays anything like it did against Cam Newton, then it will be a long night for Mike Vick.

If you're bored tonight, the UFL is on CBS Sports. Lots of former draft picks and NFL contributors, Jim Fassel coaching his butt off.

The Jets are replacing Revis Island with...Joe McKnight. Rex Ryan channeling his inner Belichick, gotta love the irony there.

Trent Richardson is awesome. Our rookie WR Travis Benjamin has been great too.

TR is going to have a very successful career as long as he stays healthy and focused.

I really enjoy watching him play.

Hopefully Cleveland keeps it close or wins.

For the life of me I can't get on the right side of the picks... I'm just not putting in enough research time. Baltimore 4 games in 18 days, divisional game after a game they wanted to desperately win... I should have known it was going to be closer... should have known Baltimore was going to JUST enough to win the game.

Well that's a better start than last Thursday when I picked Carolina...I had Ravens 24-13

Fear the double digit division dog, they cover more than 70% of the time over last 4 years. Browns have now covered 7 of last 9 times in that role.

With a good draft, wide receivers who can catch a ball, and better coaching, do you think the Browns have potential to start winning games next season? Browns fans on scout.com are very negative, but I've seen many people who think they're a few players away from being a legitimate team. I never know whether to feel optimistic with the team.

The problem is that the players they need are at skill positions. I don't think Weeden is the answer and I don;t think they have a single WR worth a lick.

Weedens been throwing darts and our defense has a lot of good young players. If we splurge on offense in free agency (something like Bowe and a real solid guard), draft ourselves a freak defensive player like Jarvis Jones, I could absolutely see a 12 win team next season if Weeden can be a top 12 QB.

Seriously, the guy has been winging it all over the field the last 3 games. Hes got a ridiculous arm and is good in the pocket. Hes making 1-2 bad decisions a game and that should improve. I think he can be potentially really good next year. It all comes down to him and getting a legit receiver though. We have an absurd amount of cap room, and if we upgrade WR and OL we will be set. Our defense is legit and ready to break out into a great one. Trent Richardson is an animal.
