If you have Stafford, Megatron, and/or Bush on your fantasy team expect a big big day.

Hoping RG3 can actually play a good 60 minutes instead of just 30. Otherwise it's gonna be another rout.

The Denver Broncos will play the remainder of the season without all-pro left tackle Ryan Clady, who suffered a Lisfranc injury to his left foot.

The team placed him on season-ending injured reserve Wednesday, a person informed of Clady's status told USA TODAY Sports.


OUCH. Happened in the closing minutes of the game too.

Colts have lost 3 offensive starters to season ending IR in the last week, this SF game could be really ugly.

Thursday night is going to be extremely emotional in Philly. Big Red and number 5 returning. Hope we can get the win.

Falcons/Dolphins sounds interesting

Chiefs.

Not a big fan of Chips philosophy of just trying to outscore your opponent. It's not a winning formula at this level. Eagles defense cant be trusted, they're piss poor from top to bottom. Alex Smith is a good game manager, and he isn't going to force the action which wont bode well for the Eagles as there only chance of wining is if they force to's. I'm anticipating a two score win by KC at the very least.

His philosophy is fine atm because we aren't going to win any other way. The defence is so bad and likely won't improve until the draft, we just aren't talented enough and don't have the right players for our new scheme.

At least we'll be fun to watch.

thing is they only have 4 days before they have to run up and down the field like crazy

can they score enough to keep up? i don't know how good their defense is and if they can stop the eagles regularly

plus the whole andy reid is back in town - don't know who that riles up more

Bush may not play this week. On one hand it's good news for me since it'll make the Lions a tad bit easier to stop, but on the other hand I have Bush in fantasy and going against the Skins D usually results in a monster game.

The Eagles are lucky they are only down 10, what a nightmare start

Its hilarious how much of a extreme difference there is between those who love Mike Mayock and those who hate him.

Two random tweets at the same exact time from two total strangers watching the game:

Matt Chandik ‏@MattChandik 40m
Always a good game to watch when Mike Mayock is dropping knowledge. The pride of The Haverford School. #bestinthebusiness


Zach Jacklin ‏@ZachJacklin 40m
I would rather cut off my ears with a butter knife than listen to mike mayock announce a football game


:lol:
