What? Those bright orange jerseys made you a Bucs fan? The Buccaneer Bruce guy on the helmet was kinda cool with the knife in his teeth. But that "creamsicle orange" color was distracting, and just plain ugly to me...in my opinion.

Yep, in 1979 I was 9 years old watching the NFC Championship game in New Mexico and saw the Bucs for the first time ever (they were never on tv since thye were so bad until that season and being in NM all we ever saw was Dallas, Denver and Oakland.) I loved the jerseys because they were different than everyone elses and orange is a cool color. After they lost that game to the Rams I decided I would be a Bucs fan from then on.

Just hoping the Steelers D can hold up until ... Roethlisberger ... comes back. I'm a Steelers fan, and there's no reason the rest of the team should suffer because of ones actions, so I'm rooting for my team no matter who's at the helm.

Buffalo should surprise a lot of people today against Miami.

As long as the O-line shows some improvement from last year, Trent Edwards is not scared, and our secondary stays the badass unit its been the last few years, the Bills should defeat the Phins.

I heard that Ben was sitting on a couch in California watching the game. Man did he blow a big opportunity. Why didn't he rent an auditorium in Pitt to show the game. Charge people $20 a head for free food and an autograph then donate all the money, plus some of his own, to a local battered women's shelter (or some charity like that.) He could have won over a lot of people that way. Oh well.

Isnt he working out with a QB coach in CA so maybe thats why he is out here not in PA. It sounds great in theory but I think he is best to separate himself from the team while suspended, no need to do something that may be deemed a violation of the suspension rules and get more games.

I don't remember the last time the Colts got embarrassed like this.

I don't remember the last time the Colts got embarrassed like this.

I'd say February 7, 2010 was pretty embarrassing for them. As far as regular season, back in '06 they got pasted by the Jags if I remember right. They had a ton of yards on the ground.

Randy Moss using post-game press conference to air his dirty laundry kind of worries me. He said he wants to be here, but thinks it will be his last year because his bosses don't appreciate him.

He clarified his stance on things a bit. But in the short term, it will create the usual ____ storm that the Boston media craves.

That was a tight game. Nothing they should have been ashamed of there, IMO.

Moss's _____ing was bound to happen in New England at some point. He's a drama queen just like TO when things don't go his way.

So who had week 1 in the "Brittle" Bob Sanders injury pool?

 

[OSCORP]

Every team that i wanted to win today lost.

Go Redskins tonight

My wife is a Colts fan and gets frustrated when this happens every year. It feels like a running gag. The Colts should really just get rid of this guy.

Vick's looking damn good today. Be a shame if a large dog would run out of the stands and rip his throat out.

Be a shame or karma? So glad the dog killers lost tonight. That what you get when you sign a f_cked up psychopath to lead your team. No tears shed at all here. Hope they go 0-16.

Vick looked rusty, wish he played more last year. Kolb looked terrible

He played like a pile of _____ which is what he is. Where as a good person like Drew Brees who is a positive influence wins a game. I hope Vick is homeless by end of season giving 5 buck bl*wjobs in dark alleyways.
