Brett Favre seems to be settling into the Jets offensive system quite nicely. He put on a show today by throwing 6 TD’s, I have to admit it was fun to watch. I hate to see the Jets win, but I can’t hate on Favre, that would be like hating the NFL and what it stands for. So as a Dolphins fan, hats off to you Mr. Favre, that was quite the show.
In other news, the Chiefs handled the Broncos pretty easily today…lost me $20, thanks Denver. Eddie Royal did get me some good fantasy points, so the whole game wasn’t a waste. I’d imagine a gust of wind knocked everyone over standing outside of the Chiefs locker room, they could finally exhale. When you know a team is in for a miserable season, you have to be a little sympathetic. Maybe I’m just saying this because my Dolphins went 1-16 a year ago and I wanted to shoot myself. Game ball goes to good old Grandmama aka Larry Johnson. 198 yards on 28 carries with 2 TD’s, enough said.
Both the Bills and Titans remain undefeated. Buffalo has played some good football behind the rushing attack of Lynch, I still don’t have total faith in Trent Edwards yet, he doesn’t do anything that catches my eye. I am totally jumping on the Titans bandwagon, I thought the game against the Vikings was going to be much closer than it was. Defense wins championships, I’m sure thats the Titans motto for this season.
Anquan Boldin took a hard shot today in the 4th quarter of the Jets game. I was watching the Bills game when a friend texted me and said Boldin just snapped his neck. We turned the game on and saw him getting carted off the field, he showed no signs of movement. When we all thought he just suffered a career ending injury. ESPN reported that he is ok and can move his extremities, luckily he didn’t suffer any serious injuries. Couldn’t help but think of Kevin Everett during the Bills season opener last year, scary stuff.
I have to end by congratulating my favorite college football team, The Alabama Crimson Tide. They showed up to Georgia and played out of their minds. I have never been so excited about the tide, this could possibly be their year. Good thing Georgia called for a blackout crowd, it was a funeral for their national championship hopes. Alabama, number 2 in the nation, roll tide!
