Yeah, super impressive win against the awful Jaguars. Congrats on a win that means nothing to a team that isn't going anywhere. :thumbsup:

They have no chance of winning that division IMO. They got lucky and beat Arizona early in the year and their other two wins are against the terrible Rams and terrible Shehawks.

Oh and in case you missed it, Marc Bulger was 7-7, 88 yards, and a TD today. Perfect 158.3 QB rating. :poke:
Didn't they get ass raped by the Vikings anyway? And we will see at the end of the season about the 49ers having "no chance" to win the division.

I can't believe how bad the Titans look. Might as well just hand that division to the Colts.
I am going to quote this because of the relevance it has to the current game.
 
We haven't won a game since we stomped on that stupid terrible towel. :cry:
 
Definitely some tough games to pick this week. Baltimore/Minnesota, NY/NO, Chicago/Atlanta, KC/Washington (just because both teams suck so bad), Denver/SD, and I can see the Houston/Cincy game being real unpredictable.

The Giants/Saints game. The Giants have a TON of injuries right now and the game is in the Gay dome so I think it will be tough for the Giants to win. But i expect a high scoring game. Giants won't have trouble scoring, but they're playing 3rd stringers in the secondary so Brees should have a good day as well.
 
Hard to believe the Titans are gonna be 0-6 going into their bye after this week. That's gotta be the most surprising story in the league this year. Pretty hilarious that they don't think Vince Young is the long term answer at QB anymore too. Dude is terrible. :lol: :LOL:

EDIT: And honestly, is there a worse player in the NFL than JaMarcus Russell? His stats every week are just horrific and he looks so out of shape...plus he sucks at throwing the ball. I dunno how anyone on that team can have any confidence in him leading them. I've heard he's late for a lot of team meetings and such as well. Just makes me wonder what some of these NFL scouts, owners, and coaches can possibly see in these garbage players that clearly are never going to develop into anything. :confused:

I taped the Giants/Raiders game on my DVR and i had to fast forward through all the Raider offense plays, it was like watching a high school team. And they were lucky to even score 1 TD.

There's just a lot of really dreadful teams in the NFL. Rams, Bucs, Chiefs, Raiders, Lions, Redskins, Panthers, Browns. I still think the Titans are better than their record. They have had a brutal schedule.

My suprise story of the year has got to be the Bengals followed closely by the Broncos.

Dude, when VY took the field and he scrambled for a first down (granted, he made a play) and the crowd went wild, all I could do was sigh and roll my eyes. I said to the TV, "what the hell do you think is going to happen?" Sure enough, nothing happened. VY is a mediocre QB at best and although he MIGHT work his way up to a decent one, he has proven time and time again he is NOT a leader. For that, I patiently await for his departure and a new QB to step in. Hopefully, they will pick a little better this time.

Everynoe, here and elsewhere, is wondering what the hell happened to the Titans in the off season. It's time to rebuild the rebuild. Sometimes you just have to flush twice.
 
Yeah, when you watch him play you can just tell that he isn't a leader and he doesn't have "it." Running quarterbacks just don't work in the NFL, I dunno when teams are gonna realize that. How many running QB's have ever won a Super Bowl? Pretty sure it's none. The only exception I can think of is possibly Steve Young and calling him a running QB is a big stretch, he just happened to be good at scrambling. He actually always looked to pass first, was incredibly talented, and was a great leader...all things none of all these running QB's in the NFL have.
 
I agree. VY sat on the sidelines all last year over by himself, not hanging out with Collins and being involved with the offense. That's when I officially wrote Mr Pouty pants off. I think the Titans organization was just looking for a McNair replacement because it sold tickets in the past and the team was built around that type of offense. Hopefully, with Collins doing well last year at the passing game, they've changed their attitudes about what kind of QB they want. Time will tell.
 
Record so far:
Week 1: 12-4
Week 2: 11-5
Week 3: 13-3
Week 4: 10-4
Week 5: 11-3
Total: 57-19

Week 6:
Carolina at Tampa Bay Brutal game. I'll take the home team.
Detroit at Green Bay
St. Louis at Jacksonville Watch, the cocksuckers will lose just to prove me wrong a 6th week in a row.
Baltimore at Minnesota If it was in BAL, I'd pick the ravens, but it's not, so go Favre!
Houston at Cincinnati
Kansas City at Washington Another awful matchup...again, home team.
N.Y. Giants at New Orleans The toughest pick of the week, should be fun to watch. If NY was healthy I'd pick 'em, but they're banged up and away so I'll give the edge to the saints.
Cleveland at Pittsburgh
Philadelphia at Oakland
Arizona at Seattle
Tennessee at New England NE usually bounces back after losing.
Buffalo at N.Y. Jets Zzzzz....
Chicago at Atlanta Another tough pick, but I'll take Chicago just 'cause my gut says so.
Denver at San Diego Riding the undefeated train as long as I can :D

I'm glad that the Filthadelphia Eagles still seem to think that scrambing QB's are winners! Cunningham = 0 Rings. McNabb, ok so he's not a run first QB and he doesn't run as much as he did, but it used to be something to guard against form him. But Donvan CHOKES in every playoff year.= Rings.

And Vick.... :lol: :LOL: He couldn't win with the Falcons, what makes the Eagles think they can win with him. Not to sound like a racist, but why do the Eagles fall in love with Black QB's?
 
Randall Cunningham was a total badass though. He could actually throw the ball unlike all the of these horrid running QB's in the league now. I still remember playing Tecmo Super Bowl for Nintendo and he was "QB Eagles" for whatever reason. Absolutely unstoppable on the designed QB run play. :lol: :LOL:

Cunningham sucked, i think McChoke is actually better. He played in a time of the ONE AND ONLY LT, who used to sack his ass. Best defensive player ever was #56. He rewrote the book on what a LB could do.
 
34 points in the first half...what's happening to the "best defense in the NFL?" :lol: :LOL:
