NFL Football Week 12: Weekend Wrap Up and Monday Night Football Preview
November 26, 2007
As predicted, this week showcased some pretty competitive games and really close calls for some teams that were just a little too confident.
I have to start with the New England Patriots against the Philadelphia Eagles; even though it was the last game on Sunday it was a big surprise that it was that close of a contest.
When it was announced that Eagles quarterback Donovan McNabb wasn’t going to play and backup AJ Feely was going to be the starter, I was getting ready to see an absolute massacre, similar to what the Patriots did to the Washington Redskins a few weeks ago and the Buffalo Bills last week, but that was as far from the truth as can be! The Patriots did score on an interception by Ansante Samuel (best corner in football right now) on the Eagles first possession, but after that, the teams might as well have been mirror images of each other, if you can believe that!
NFL Football Week 8: The Preview
October 28, 2007
Sunday’s games will showcase about five competitive match ups that will shake up the NFL in terms of who is for real and who needs to make some changes.
Here are the match ups to watch on NFL Sunday:
Detroit Lions vs Chicago Bears
-both of these teams have shown promise on both sides of the ball this season with quarterback Jon Kitna actually turning the Lions offense into a dangerous threat and Chicago Bears looking to get back in the playoff mix with Devin Hester playing wider receiver and Brian Griese taking Grossman’s spot, it should be a good match up, but I think Bears will come out on top
Pittsburgh Steelers vs Cincinnati Bengals
-Cincinnati is in desperation mode right now and the Steelers want to stay in the playoff hunt in the AFC, so these two teams will be looking at tearing each apart and both teams have the capabilities to do so, it will be a close one, but I think Steelers are too good this year to get beat by the Bengals
NFL Football Week 7: Week 7 Rundown
October 22, 2007
The Priest has returned! Yep, you heard it right; running back Priest Holmes will make his first appearance in a Kansas City Chiefs uniform since 2005 on Sunday against the Oakland Raiders. Priest Holmes was virtually unstoppable before he went down with the a serious knee injury a couple of years ago, practically a guaranteed 100 yards rushing and at least two touchdowns, Holmes was as popular and as good as LT back in his prime. He will not get the bulk of the carries obviously being behind superstar Larry Johnson who had a monster game last week, but I wouldn’t be surprised to see him take advantage of the carries he does get in his limited role.
Here is a list of some of the other games happening in week 7:
Atlanta Falcons vs New Orleans Saints
-the Saints showed that they are not dead yet as they lit up an unsuspecting Seattle Seahawks team last week, so I would expect them to do the same against a horrible Atlanta Falcons team, but Bryon Leftwich will get the start at quarterback in place of Joey Harrington, so there just might be a chance for Atlanta to make something happen
