Great comeback win by Ryan Fitzpatrick and the Bills over Jason Campbell and the Raiders. Fitzpatrick is yet another White QB who has been given no respect, but week by week he is becoming better and better and is on the verge of stardom.

Did anyone watch the Panthers/Packers? I was tracking it on the gametracker and it seemed like alot of Newton's passes were short with the reciever getting alot of YAC. Can anyone confirm this?

Newton played surprisingly well again. Can't deny that his first two games as a pro have been impressive.

Gronkowski is virtually unstoppable. He's too fast for linebackers and safeties and too strong for corners to tackle him. He's better than Witten and Clark were in the second years of their careers. If he can stay healthy he should have a HOF or close to a HOF type career.

And he can block like a beast too. Gronkowski is an animal.

Cleveland needs to add to some gadget plays to their basic offense. Either get Cribbs involved more or Moore because if they don't it will be last year all over again. The calls for Hardesty looked like they were scripted and illogical, when Hardesty got his clock cleaned on one play, the next play they call his number?:biggrin: I guess they hired Rich Kotite as offensive coordinator....:thumbdown::dizzy:

Decker is starting to show how talented he is. He could have a breakout year if he's allowed to start some games. Hartline has zero catches as of yet. Gronk with a 30 yard grab!

Does anyone here think that the media and DWF's will make up the excuse that OchoStinko is double teamed and that's why Welker is open all the time and Ocho can't catch any balls? They did it with Moss.

Not after the way he came up super-small last week and with Teddy Bruschi skewering him the way he did.

Sounds like Shipley might have broken his leg and will be lost for the year :cry:

This weekend has some real bright spots. After going throuogh the White Purge, now we're enjoying a White Surge.

Eric Decker with 113 yards and 2 TDs. Move over Larry Fitzgerald, a new superstar is on the horizon.

And for a score! Looks like NE and Pack are the ite teams again this year. Also just found a great highlight program on the NFL Network. It's call NFL RedZone continous live games supplemented by live plays or great highlights. In a Span of a minute I saw the Billls win, Jordy's s ore and TD by decker all live. Great program/ format. All without Beirman rumbling, stumbling crap and some former affelete speaking ebonics.

At least Deion Branch puts in some effort. He's never had a 1,000 yard season and Welker is clearly the best receiver on the team, but compared to Ochostinko he's a HOF'er. Ochostinko is just a pure excuse for a wide receiver and human being at that.

I was devastated to hear the news about Shipley. Hope he has a quick recovery.

The situation in Minnesota makes me sick. Toby Gerhart could be doing the same thing as Hillis if he just got to start. Give him the ball for 20+ times a game and look out. Of course it won't happen with ball hog Adrian Peterson demanding the ball 95% of the time. Gerhart is wasting away. He could have had an incredible game today. So glad the Vikings lost with the way that they are treating him.

Eric Decker is a stud. No doubt about it. They need to start him and there is no excuse why they shouldn't other than his lack of a tan. He is so fast and so strong. He has all of the tools to be a top 5 receiver for many, many years.

Glad to see Hillis have a nice day despite the horrible play calling.

Jordy Nelson is getting screwed over so bad in Green Bay. He is the best receiver on the team and he sits on the bench. Only in the NFL!
