But surely there's no thrill greater than pulling out a tough win against a now 0-5 team! Superbowl here they come! Their travel agents will hook them up on all the best deals.

If I'm a Cowboys fan, I'm pretty embarrassed my team just acted like they won the Super Bowl after this showing. I'm a Cowboys fan, and I just rolled my eyes at that dogpile. Classic example of why this is a team going nowhere fast.

250 receiving yards for Miles Austin. Wow The one bright spot on an otherwise crappy day. Seriously, I have no problem seeing this team lose so they can get a decent draft pick. They're going nowhere this season.

Bill Parcells would have his team torn to shreds if they had that game today. Wade Phillips celebrates it like a Super Bowl victory. Pa-freaking-thetic. Well I can see why Wade would celebrate it like that. "Yay! I'm employed for another week!"

Just watched the final drive of the Bengal game again. 3-0 against the AFC North, unbelievable. Same trend as always, play up and down to their opponents. Browns? Play down and struggle. Ravens? Play up and only allow the defense to give up 7 points. This defense is effing inspired this year. Palmer is a shell of what he once was ... until the clock says 3:00 or less. I've never seen a season like this before.

On a more serious note, how many times do the Bengals have to stay in the game and win it in the last two minutes before people start realizing that it's not luck? Think about this from today:
1. The Bengals defense kept the #3 offense out of the end zone until late in the game, and then only let them in once. 2. Cedric Benson had the first 100+ yard game against the Ravens in 39 games, averaging about 4 per carry. 3. Carson Palmer has freaking ice in his veins. He's thrown two pick-6s this season in games the Bengals have won. That's a short memory. Plus, he knows how to draw a defensive penalty when he needs one. That unnecessary roughness call against Ray Lewis was all Palmer. He called the play with Ochocinco crossing over the middle and threw it high on purpose so Lewis would light him up. 15 yards. 1st down. Clock stops.
I think the Bengals will let everyone continue to underestimate them, as long as the wins keep coming.

Not for nothing, but the Skins wouldn't even be in the game if Jake didn't gift wrap that pass to Dante Hall..... Just sayin'..... Or if D-Will didn't fumble the very first play of the game. Coulda woulda shoulda, we won. ;D

I have seen everything. The Chiefs were handed this ballgame, and they still blow it. This is the kindof game where you just cannot help but wonder why anyone is a Chiefs fan. Penalties, turnovers...indescribable, but I will try anyway.
Let me just start here...if Maurice Legget (Miles Austin) is on this team in the next 30 minutes I officially quit on them this year. Miles Austin is not that good, even after today I believe that. If Maurice Legget is not on the field today, the Chiefs win this game. He should have been cut today, and now he should never get a job in the NFL again.
That blocked field goal made me want to vomit. The Chiefs were not even trying to block. That replay showed people still looking down the entire play. Hell, the guy that blew the block on the guy that eventually blocked the field goal didn't even move from when the ball was snapped.
Handing the ball off to Larry Johnson is the equivalent of taking a knee. That man has done EVERYTHING to lose the starting job.
And now losing two of our starting O-linemen (one of those actually being pretty good)...an unholy offensive line becomes worse.
Said it last week and will say it again. The Chiefs are the worst team in the NFL and it's not even close.

Chris Gocong desperately trying to sell the Raiders as a threat to the Eagles next week. In my opinion, he failed. ;D

Coincidentally, my college had the same colors as the Bronc's throwbacks. However, they still didn't make them look THAT bad.

I'll be honest though, looking at those...I am now craving a glass of Chocolate Milk like you can't imagine.

I'm a little surprised by Rams comment on page 1 got no sold Not only are the Rams likely to finish 0-16 this year, but the're currently on pace to score fewer than 100 points. Has any team done that since the schedule expanded to 16 games?

The Falcons are humbling the 49ers today.
