[Chapter 2099]

Except for the fact that the Jets suck. They are a 1-2 team wearing a 2-1 record. The Ravens will beat them easily.

Washington will be the #1 in Tenn....Moore is still a #3/#4 in Oakland. Go with Washington.

Thanks, 316. I know Ford and Bey are set to return soon, but was thinking Moore might be a popular target for Campbell even after their return. Wishful thinking I guess.

Just got the official word that Britt's season is done. I put in my waiver order for Washington. Processes on Wednesday morning, so I'm keeping my fingers crossed it works out.

If the Vikings lose to the Chiefs this Sunday, we will take over the official title of....................(wait for it).....................


Laughingstock of the NFL!

The two PA teams have nothing to be proud of this weekend.

Ain't it the truth. I would really like to see how the Steelers play when they have the "O" line healthy.


However, for those prognasticators who have written the Steelers off already...I shall do no such thing. I have seen the Steelers in worse straights than they are in now and end up winning a Superbowl. During the 2005 season, they were 7-5 on week 13 and were expected to miss the playoffs because they were playing so badly. They got in to the playoffs as the 6th seed and did not look back winning three road playoff games to get to the superbowl and beat the Seahawks. And last year they had to go 4 games without Rapistberger and they scraped together a 3-1 start and eventually made it to the Superbowl. So a little 2-1 start while having to play a little farther back in the offensive line depth is no where near as bad as I have seen them.

I won't use the weak old addage that "great teams find ways to win". I do not believe in it. A great team just mows through everyone else.

And I am not predicting a Superbowl win or even an appearance for them this year. I am just saying that I have seen them do it under worse conditions so I am waiting to see what happens later.

The Steelers are a damned solid team and a damned tough team. And few teams can claw and crawl through the pile of NFL teams like the Steelers can even when they don't have NFL Superheroes like Brady playing for them.

They don't do it pretty. But I wouldn't like them if they did.

^^So do you have pictures yet from The Steelers bar down south (AZ)?

 

[SixMillionDollarMan Guy]

..............And the Redskins go down!

Someone in the stadium must have yelled:

Would the Real Rex Grossman please stand up.

Seriously, I was just going to post something like this.

Not yet...but those are coming soon. But now I can't get to their website. They have an awesome event coming up for when the Steelers come to play the Cardinals. This event includes tickets and transportation to the game, a party and some former Steelers are going to be there. I have to make sure I get in on that.

One of the guys in my fantasy league uses that as his team logo.

I was just thinking about how cool it would be if George Lucas bought a NFL franchise (preferably expansion) and themed it for Star Wars.

Waiting for it...

That party sounds like fun. Make sure to get pics of the food.

Ok, Billies! 3-0, but no time to stop now.


The Bungles are up next, but I am a bit worried.

This is definitely a trap game.

Who they got the week after? Could get caught thinking ahead

Im avoiding this one wager wise

My Saints/Vikes parlay paid of nicely last week

After Cincy, they play the Eagles in Buffalo.
