Early games open thread

Open thread to discuss the early games this Sunday.

I admit, for a game against an 0-4 team, I'm pretty pumped about watching our Cowboys play the Bengals. I want to see Dallas come out and re-establish their dominance. I'm very interested in getting the running game going again and seeing the defense turn in a shut-down performance.

But in the meantime, feel free to discuss the early games, or the upcoming Cowboys game, in this thread.

I know that this will sound bad

but I hope the iggles win. It will help even out the standings in the east, the iggles have more on the line than the skins, and it will take some of the hype off how “good” the skins are being hyped. It will also bolster the point that the division will be a true war of attriction between all the teams and the winner may not have home field but will probably destroy any in their way to the SB.

Crap, the iggles cannot

add to thier lead, but hopefully they keep the skins off from finding a rythym.

I hoped that the hags would try

to at least have a competative outing with the gints; but alas nothing. The west is a complete joke with the hags looking like all their other bretheren. Even playing at home (whale’s vag) does not seem to make any difference.

Darn,

the iggles need to try and get some more points, at least there D is hold ing the skins to FG’s.

felix jones

playing the ranked 27 defense vs the rush I would love to see F. Jones run the ball a little more than usual.

For everybody who wants us to trade for Roy Williams.

Have you seen him play lately? Maybe he’s not motivated because they suck but I’ll pass.

Gotta love that regional coverage.

I’ve got two 31-0 games to choose from right now.

Damn landlord wont let us have a satellite. I would have never moved here if I knew that.

At least I get the Boys later.

Federal Law.

Prohibits your landlord from restricting your access to a satellite dish. He/she cannot do that.

Mcflabb is looking off

and their D will wilt in the 4th qtr if they cannot keep their off on the field for more than a minute. I think Westbrook is not able to contribute as much as they had hoped.

I agree

but in the short term, it is better to have the iggles win.

very true, which makes that last run for the eagles all kinds of ugly.

Wow, talk about deflating

the Texans looked like they had this one locked up and now have successfully snatched defeat out of the jaws of victory.

Indy comes roaring back!

Down by three to Houston at 2:00 warning and driving at Houston’s 5 yd line. They’ve scored 21 in the last 2:10

Well, so much for he packs early season start

they have now dropped 3 games straight. I know the game is not final but the falcons just picked up a 1st down with 1:36 remaining and no TO for GB. Talk about suprising, I did not expect that one.

for the texans too, I wonder if the Sage for starter talk will persist after this game?

Agreed, lets hope we see

a complete blowout, I want them to match the one that the gints had against the hags.
