Seattle and the Patsie's look like the game of the week. K.C. at Carolina is interesting and I'm looking forward to see what Brees does against the Bronco defense.

Whats the timetable on Michael Bennett? It's hard for me to take Seattle seriously until he returns. I don't think they stand a chance against New England this weekend.

The Browns shown twice in a national game in 5 days. I don't think most football fans are happy with that.

I'm officially convinced that the Browns are going to go winless this season.

I'm guessing that the deadness of this thread indicates that even the most hardcore of NFL fans really couldn't care less about this awful game.

I just looked at their remaining schedule. I'm convinced you're right.

I followed along for the purpose of fantasy football, but probably didn't watch more than 15 minutes total

Definitely nervous for the matchup with the Steelers. Dallas defense has been fantastic, but this is their toughest defense to date. Don't feel like they'll be able to stop Zeke because nobody has been with the exception of the Giants in Week 1 and I don't see them getting a lot of pressure on Dak, but that Steelers offense concerns me. Need to get ahead early, keep Ben off the field, and get some interior pressure on him and not allow him to get the ball down field to Antonio. Need to keep Bell from getting to the perimeter and keep that Steelers offense in third and long.

Gut feeling is Boys win a close on 34-27.

Winner winner chicken dinner. instead I watched my Tar Heels blow away any chance of a BCS Bowl. Duke - 28 North Carolina - 27. That was just as bad as a Cardinal fan watching the Cubs win the world series. :upset: :confused: :curse:

Steelers will have to score a lot of points in this one to have a chance. Steelers defense is dreadful.

I have a strong hunch we will see a ton of Bell. Unlike other teams the Cowboys have played this year the Steelers are quite capable of winning time of possession against our heroes. It's going to create a lot of one-on-one's with their receivers. The defense is going to need to be very disciplined... and TACKLE.

I sense an old-school game. Should be fun.

If this happens, does the media talk about Cleveland's two losses involving controversy like they did with the Lions? Does a respected coach like Hue get fired?

You can pound them right in the gut and then get over the top on them all day. Make sure you let Garrett know this. I need Dallas to head into town and beat them down. I'm not suggesting anything, but Roethlisberger is still recovering from knee surgery. :wink:
I can't wait for that New England-Seattle game. Ravens already handled their business last night, so I can just relax in my Jamal Lewis jersey and root for my fantasy team.

I expect Dez to finally have a big game. I also think Beasley will drive the Steeler LB's crazy. I bet Albert Morris comes in and has a decent day as well.
