Ready for this week's list? Here goes...
- I think Tony Romo made a lot of critics eat humble pie with a nice performance against the Falcons. Even though he had one turnover on a bonehead run an’ dive (slide QB, slide!), he still managed the game well overall and gave his WRs chances to make plays.
- Despite breaking down in the 2nd half yesterday (they gave up 5 TDs and a FG), I’m still somewhat impressed by the Dolphins. They’re being very competitive with limited resources (who said Ricky Williams’ career was over)?
- As I said last week, the Redskins are in a bad state. However, I didn’t give enough of the ‘credit’ to Jason Campbell. Watching that game Monday night, he is really no better than an average back-up. He makes really bad decisions out there and is very tentative in the pocket. The Todd Collins watch is on.
- I think the Bears are wondering if anyone got the license plate of that orange and black striped truck that slammed into them on Sunday:
Palmer 233 yards, 5 PaTDs
Benson 189 yards, 1 RuTD
Ochocinco 118 yards, 2 ReTDs - I think it’s a crime that DeSean Jackson gets as little touches as he does in that Eagle offense. That kid is magic.
- I think I feel very sorry for Steven Jackson...Jackson in STL is like a beauty trapped in the body of a beast.
- I think these are the ‘Out of the Blue’ players/coaches/teams of the season thus far:
Miles Austin- Beast of the NFC East.
Mike Wallace- Is this close to making Santonio Holmes irrelevant.
Hines Ward- Who knew he still had it in him?
Sidney Rice- Favre’s new go-to guy.
Steve Smith- Better this year than his Carolina namesake.
Rashard Mendenhall- Put the power back in Pittsburgh.
Matt Schaub- We knew he had it in him...breakout year.
Joe Flacco- Did you think he was this good though?
Kyle Orton- The consummate game manager.
Denver Defense- The engine of this team.
Cincinnati Bengals- This time around it’s been less flash and more football.
Josh McDaniels- Young phenom has recharged the Broncos.
Mike Singletary- Bringing respectability back to the Bay.
Jared Allen- Was he always this good?
Gregg Williams- Finally...some defense on Bourbon Street.
Packers D- Have adapted to the complex 3-4 in record time. - I think that unless something changes quickly in TONYNFL, it’s only a three team race to the finish between GooseNick, RobNick, and Johnny’s Groupies.
- In the D&G, I think Cologne Boy, a.k.a. The Heckler is taking no prisoners this year. And he may just have enough weapons within his RB and WR core to survive his QB issues.
- Is anyone wondering what has happened to Armando this year? Last place in TONYNFL, second-last in the D&G- this guy used to be the one to beat. Ouch. Word is a quarrel with his buddy Guido has caused him to lose focus...admirable that neither of them has played it out in the media. However, I think that this reporter will get to the bottom of it yet!
