The funny thing is I've always liked Charlie Batch as a QB. He was the last good QB Detroit ever had and it's a shame that it's taken this long for him to get back on the field.
Can't wait to watch him play again this sunday. Seems like it's been so long.

Nope....The New York Football Giants are a shell of the team that HELD their way to the championship in '07...Bears by 17.
Tom Brady IS the G.O.A.T.

There is a LOT wrong with the Giants team. They came out in week one and looked good, not great but good. Since then they have looked like one of the worst teams in the league. Seems like every years Coughlin is fighting a battle with these guys. Brandon Jacobs is an idiot and some wuss's in the locker room complain about stuff being too hard like arriving at the games too early or something. These players today are such pussies mentally. Plus, against the Titans last week they committed a lot of personal fouls I believe. It's still early since the East isn't that dominant EARLY but the Giants are near a disappointing bottom of the league.

Quality stuff here.
http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/news/story?id=5630137
JACKSONVILLE, Fla. -- Jacksonville Jaguars receiver Kassim Osgood leapt out a second-floor window to escape a gun-wielding man who attacked him and a 19-year-old woman, according to police.
The armed intruder exchanged gunfire with his ex-girlfriend, Mackenzie Rae Putnal, after putting a gun to her head on Monday night, according to the Jacksonville Sheriff's Office.
According to the sheriff's report, Osgood, 30, sustained some minor bruises during the attack and while fleeing.
"He's fine," Jaguars coach Jack Del Rio said Wednesday. "I'm aware of it. I really can't comment on that whole deal. He's doing OK."
The Florida Times-Union first reported the incident.
Julian Armond Bartletto, 20, of Jacksonville, was arrested on charges of aggravated battery, false imprisonment, armed robbery, burglary and violation of an injunction. He was being held without bond at the Duval County Jail.
Putnal and Osgood were watching television around 11 p.m. in an upstairs game room when a man walked in with his face covered with a plastic bag and pointed a gun at them. Saying "I can't believe you're with that guy," the man pulled Putnal around the room by her hair and hit her with the gun and his fists before hitting Osgood in the head with the gun, according to the report.
The gunman took Putnal's cell phone and tackled her as she tried to flee. When he ordered the couple to sit on the floor, she escaped downstairs in her parents' home and grabbed a gun, police said. They shot at each other and both missed.
Osgood, meanwhile, jammed a chair under the door, jumped out a window to the lawn below and ran to a neighbor's house to call police.
Putnal identified the man as her ex-boyfriend and called police, according to the report. Bartletto was later found at his home and arrested.
Osgood has two receptions for 29 yards this season, including a 24-yard TD catch in the opener against Denver. He played seven seasons for San Diego, and made three Pro Bowls as a special teams ace, before signing with the Jaguars.

Cowher seems to be getting that itch again. With the passing of his wife, I see him coming back sooner than he probably planned. I'm sure he'll be getting more family stuff out of the way with his daughters first but Cowher will be back before you know it and those two teams could be in waiting, esp Carolina.

Lots of upsets last week in the NFL. Very interesting mumbo-jumbo with many teams around the NFL.
Week 4 pickems:
Last week: 6-10
Overall- 25-22
Bengals @ Browns: Cleveland ALMOST got me the upset last week @ Baltimore. I think this could be the week the Browns get the W and I think I was a week early for Cleveland's upset. I am taking Cleveland 2 weeks in a row as my upset pick, this time over the Bengals. The Browns ALWAYS play the Bengals to the wire and Palmer and the Bengals haven't been looking any good whatsoever. Cleveland will have a chip on their shoulder and finally have enough to edge it out against Cincy. UPSET: Browns by 6.
Ravens @ Steelers: Pittsburgh's one game away from being 4-0 when Ben returns after the BYE. The Ravens have many holes in that defense versus the holes (if any) on the Steelers defense and Mendenhall's explosivness lately can take advantage of Baltimore's run D, which have given up some major yardage in past weeks. Steelers are 9-1 the past 10 games at Heinz Field versus the Ravens and Joe Flacco struggles against the Steelers defense with the amount of pressure that will force him. Steelers are the better overall team and are tough at home. Steelers by 8.
49'ers @ Falcons: Singleterry has been one of the biggest busts and disappointments in the league this season and he completley wiped out his staff, re-starting from scratch. Not a good week to be going into Atlanta in the Dome after coming off an emotional win against the Saints. The Falcons are very hard to beat at home and if they want to take the NFC SOUTH away from N.O, they need to beat the weak NFC opponents. Falcons by 21.
Jets @ Bills: Ryan Fitzpatrick is now the Bills starter and he put up 30 solid points against New England. Still, the Jets isn't the New England's defense and have a killer instinct. Mark Sanchez is coming of age quickly and if he continues to spell that defense, then the Jets will cruise through the AFC EAST. Jets by 13.
Panthers @ Saints: The motto for the Panthers this year will be re-build. Jimmy Clausen will get some major mileage to start his career, and this is an early career test against the Saints defense who can take the ball away. Even though the Saints run D is in question, Bree's should rebound from a loss last week against Atlanta and prove they could and should be undefeated against a terrible team they should pounce on. Saints by 24.
Broncos @ Titans: Intriguing matchup. Tennessee is tough to beat at home in Nashville and homes the best running back in this league. They are still suspect however, as are the Broncos, so I can see this going either way. Kyle Orton has quietly been putting up major numbers and the Broncs have a good overall defense but the Titans have a stout defense as well and should be too much for Denver to handle in Nashville. Titans by 4.
Lions @ Packers: Like the Saints, the Packers could easily be 3-0. They had major difficulties controlling their aggression last week and made stupid penalties, esp personal fouls. They'll look to correct that and take it out, no mercy, on a below average Lions team who are seriously out of their league. Packers by 28.
Seahawks @ Rams: Seahawks have a VERY TOUGH defense under Pete Carrol, but they remain an inconsistency. The Rams finally won their first home game in so long upsetting the Redskins last week, but they should come back down to Earth while Carrol comes up with a formula to get to Bradford while Steven Jackson nurse's injury. Seahawks by 10.
Colts @ Jags: The Colts are VERY, VERY banged up all over the place, but as Jon Gruden would say, they got the "Sheriff" ready to go and healthy and as long as Manning is back there for the Colts, the Jags, who are one of the worst and most inconsistent team in the league, won't match up and won't be able to do much damage against Indy overall. Colts by 14.
Texans @ Raiders: Disappointing in Oakland this season, and they quickly got back to their losing ways , losing to the pathetic Cardinals while missing gimme field goals. Still, this team has found their man and they seem to spark around Bruce Gradkowski and rally around him the best. The Texans lost a tough one last week and are out to prove they can answer back in this league when they got punched in the mouth. Houston should re-bound quickly. Texans by 12.
Cardinals @ Chargers: The Cardinals are very bad, but whose to say they won't be able to take it to a slow paced, slow starting Chargers team? If San Diego wants to suddenly turn into the Super Bowl team they could be, they better do it quick. Chargers by 20.
Redskins @ Eagles: My second upset. I'm not jumping on the Vick bandwagon just yet. He faced to terrible defense's in Jax & Detroit and he was barely challenged to really do much in those games. The Redskins are in an early slump and it looked like they had a little hiccup last week against St. Louis after playing a stellar game against Houston 2 weeks ago. Emotional homecoming for Donovan McNabb and with everyone anointing Vick the MVP award already, the Skins will rally around this opportunity and play for McNabb. Redskins by 7.
Bears @ Giants: Cutler should have thrown 3-4 INTS last week but was saved by the yellow flag. I'm still now sold on this Bears team, even though they have a tough defense. I think Cutler is DUE to throw a game soon, and this could be it. The Giants are a mad-disappointment and I'd expect more from a Tom Coughin team. This will be my last horrah for the Giants to turn it around after being a complete divided mess. They need this one bad and the Bears have to slip sometime. Giants need to prove they can win games this season. Giants by 3.
Patriots @ Dolphins: Great match- up. If Tom Brady and the Pats want to have a shot at the post-seaosn, they must win every game in a shootout because as much as the Pats can put up the points, they can give up twice the amount. Henne and the Dolphins are a quick strike offense who can put points on the board as well and have a better defense than N.E. I expect this to be a shootout, back and forth. The Pats struggle against MIA, esp @ MIA. Dolphins by 9.
Week 4 pickems:
Last week: 6-10
Overall- 25-22
Bengals @ Browns: Cleveland ALMOST got me the upset last week @ Baltimore. I think this could be the week the Browns get the W and I think I was a week early for Cleveland's upset.

I've said it all year that the Lions are no more pushover and they've played very well the past weeks. Their no more gimmie, but GB had a bad game and was even up big early. Good game by the Lions but a loss is a loss is a loss.
Detroit has a bright future.
Anyway, I don't sweat the Ravens. 11 penalties, and leaving points on the field. Only losing by 3 with our back up QB and leaving points on the field and only losing by 3 to a bitter rival is correctable. Ben will be back and make those plays we need at the elite level. Noone even gave us a chance to win even 2 games so we'll regroup with Ben back in the lineup over the BYE week.
Browns finally came through with my upset! They were oh so close the past few years and they finally had enough to edge Cincy. Good work by CLEVE.

You must think I'm a girl (haha) ...I was referring to ^^^^^^^!! you made it sound
as though the Lions were going to sit the bench, pick their noses and watch GB play with each other ...
You were almost correct, but once the Lions woke up from their afternoon nap they proceeded to tease me, taunt me and
lead me to believe I had a chance ...another lonely night in Shreveport!!!

This is the NFL and Green Bay had a big lead but let it slip away late in the game. The Lions are no push-over and played well. The NFL is a beast that is un-predictable and we're seeing it more this year. You even had the Falcons, who just beat New Orleans last week struggle with the 0-3 Niners.
You have the Saints barely squeaking by the 0-3 Panthers led by a rookie QB. Not surprised the Lions made it close there at the end since they are professionals but good teams will play tight ones in this league and Detroit is no exception. Should the Packers won big here on paper and what's expected? Of course, credit the Lions for making a comeback but they fell short and the Pack found a way to win on a bad day. Lions will continue to build their football team to be a competitor and we saw that today. They just aren't there yet.

I attended the Browns game today - first game in a LONG time that I've been to for various reasons.
Not only did I get to see our team (that's improving week by week) make an overall very respectable showing and come away with the win, I got to meet THE WALRUS, Mr. Mike Holmgren himself. I just happened to pass him in the halls. Very genuine guy, remembered my name, looked me in the eye, gave me the time of day, and overall just a guy who has a commanding presence. Pretty cool.
Peyton Hillis is a force to behold. That Quinn trade looks great. The guy was bowling over Bengals defenders in groups of four

Pretty cool, glad you saw a victory, esp over the fucking Bungles. The Browns play them tough out of anyone and are always on the brink. The Browns were practically in EVERY game this season but fell short in all of their loss's so the Browns have vastly improved as an overall team, esp at the QB position. Wallace has been solid and Delhomme always gives that veterans presence and has won so Cleveland could be better than their 1-3 record. Too bad they get first crack at a pissed off Roethlisberger but the way the NFL is going this year, who knows.

Jacksonville beating INDY on a 58 yard field goal at the end of regulation! WOW! This NFL season is ROWDY. Any given Sunday this year for sure. Teams look pathetic one week, get blown out the other, win an impressive win, lose bad, win big, it's just crazy. Lot of squeakers this week and the Giants are actually looking like a team tonight. Go figure! I need them big in my pickems. Cutler is due to blow it, already threw a pick.

This is truly a crazy season with tons of question marks...
I think the Bears are this year's version of the 09 Broncos (who started 6-0). I think they are pretenders and are sure to unravel.

Agreed. Cutler sacked 8 times already. Is this the 2007 Giants defense or are my eyes deceiving me?
These offense's are disgusting. Giants are worse than I imagined. They should be beating Chicago by atleast 21 by now.

A minute to go in til the second half, and the Bears have a WHOPPING 4 yards of total offense! Unbelievably just pathetic. Cutler has - 13 yards passing. Sacked 9 times. Never saw this bad of a first half performance before.

I agree trav that 58yrd field goal was AMAZING. I love seeing peyton manning loose. I also made a quick 50 bucks on that kick

Riiiiight ...say what you will, I'm lovin' my Lyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyins!!! Now win, Dammit!!!
N'awlin's Defense ...WHEW!!
Saint's 'D' didn't do squat.....Smith going down, and poor PLAY CALLING by CAR. did them in on that last drive. N.O. was all but dead on that last drive....N.O. doesn't impress me at all. That's 2 weeks they sqeaked by now....
