I didn't watch the game but kept checking up on NFL.com. Garcon was targeted many times but only came up with 4 catches in the game. Collie should be the #2 receiver next to Wayne with Gonzalez in the slot.

Garcon dropped two easy balls, including one which would have been a td. The All Black Colts Defense was absolutely gashed by the Texans.

Jason Campbell was predictably bad in his Raiders debut. Carolina looked bad against the Giants. It was great to see the Bengals get slammed. Shipley had 5 rec for 82 yards. Edelman was inactive for the Patriots with a foot injury- hope he gets back soon.

I am going to go out on a limb here. Orton is a good qb but in my honest opinion, I feel Tebow is already at the same level. Tim Tebow should be starting. I hope the Broncos continue to lose because that is the quickest way to get Tim on the field. They also need to get Decker out there as the 3rd receiver. He is too talented to waste away sitting on the bench.
What are your guys feelings on Tim Tebow starting? I say he is ready. He may struggle like all rookies but I'll bet he makes 9good plays for every 1 bad play at the worst case scenario.

I feel Orton has gotten a raw deal most of his career. He is a second tier QB in this league (he has improved every year), I think Tebow could play now and go through growing pains and come out just fine but I think Denver wants to take the same approach Green bay did with Aaron Rodgers and let him grow into the position. Im a huge Tebow fan but think he will benefit from learning this system and tweaking his mechanics.

The Bengals should have had some balls and kept Matt Jones. Owens looks very average out there, he is averaging 7 yards per catch which is not impressive at outside receiver, he is doing nothing special, at this age I don't think he has any ability to stretch the field. Matt Jones could be doing better than that at a cheaper price, is younger and has more upside.

I really wish the Texans would have drafted Gerhart. Arian Foster, talent wise, doesn't look like anything special, just an average back, maybe slightly above average, but he had a career day against the Colts with 200+ yards rushing. Gerhart is ten times the back he is and would have had an even bigger game behind their line.

Kevin Kolb and Stewart Bradley both knocked out with concussions. The Eagles are going with two White o-linemen and 20 affletes for the second half.

Jordy Nelson is almost non-existent in the Packs offense. His receptions decreased from his rookie season to last year. He only has one catch for 7 yards so far.

Kuhn with a 13 yard run, and the announcers go straight to praising the offensive line

Jordy Nelson with a 51 yard return, yet they rarely use him on the field at wr, even though he runs great routes, has great hands to go along with his speed and size

Hillis out played Harrison. Harrison has slightly better numbers because he was able to break off a 39 yard run. If not for that his numbers would have been atrocious. Also Hillis caught 4 passes while Harrison only caught 1.

Hillis also made an amazing play on the pick that Delhomme threw. Hillis flew down field and knocked the guy out of bounce at the 3 yard line, preventing a touchdown. He blew past his two black teammates in the process. Yet people will still claim he is too slow to be a RB.

Nelson with another nice 40 yard kickoff return. This kid has 10.63 speed in the 100m and he's not considered a vertical threat. How is that possible?

Komar is also returning kicks.

Nice to see clueless (and very racist) Mike Singletary's 49ers get spanked by the Seahawks. Pete Carroll is just as racist, but Singletary is a typical league aa hire.

Riley Cooper is playing a bit for the Eagles. He looks like a man among tiny black DB boys.

Clay eats sumos, and this year it looks like he has a spin move to compliment his speed rush. Defensive player of the week no doubt. Hawk is down to kickoff coverage even Poppinga and Zombo make the field before him. Kuhn is a beast, power and great balance, but the bleepin boothjobs gave it all to the line and not John breaking tackles and hauling people down field. Rogers settles down they can live up to the hype.

Clay Matthews, superstar!

Absolutely! Packer's linebacker coach Kevin Greene raves about his athleticism, fluidity and instincts.

He put the shackles on con-Vick when it mattered most.

All three of Eli Manning's interceptions were deflections of catch-able balls by his receivers. That hurts.
