I think I've seen the Ravens 2 or 3 times this year. There something about them this year.... they don't seem to be clicking on all cylinders yet they are winning. Somewhat like the Texans in this sense. They don't seem as scary as in past seasons. Where they differ, 5 of the Ravens 6 games have been decided by 7 pts. or less.... The Ravens only loss was by one point to Philadelphia (24-23). The Texan's loss was a doozy....

And the Denver Broncos just cut Trindon Holliday (it's all but official).
Hope the little guy enjoyed his brief visit to the Rockies ?
(And can you believe that WR falling flat on his face after catching the pass from Manning when he had a wide-open path the GL ?)

And yet after all the first-half pratfalls, Denver came back to win, 35-24 so Holliday is still undefeated on the season.

That happened a couple of seasons ago when Denver started 6-0 then cut their punter who was signed by Tennessee. The Broncos then proceeded to miss the playoffs while the Titans went on a long winning streak.

Let's hope Holliday wasn't our lucky rabbit's foot.

Well, at least the Texans loss wasn't the most embarrassing and humiliating one of the NFL weekend. At least we out-and-out lost. Charger fans have got to feel like a total pile of dung today with buffoons AJ Smith, Norv Turner and Philip Rivers at the helm. Think Eli, Peyton and Pops Manning feel pretty good today? I think Drew Brees might even have gotten a chuckle out of that one...

Thuggs is coming off the PUP list in the next couple of days but it's not believed he will be ready for game action until Thanksgiving.

What about the 49'ers? After that slip-up in Minnesota, they were starting to look invincible by beating the Jets 34-0 and the Bills 45-3. Then, the Giants went to their house and beat them (49'ers) by 23 (26-3). Just goes to show, you never know in the NFL....

I doubt the Packers go undefeated the rest of the way....but for one night, they really had it going...

For me the Giants win over SF was the most impressive victory of the NFL season to date because they traveled 3 time-zones to beat a very good football team and beat them decisively. IMO that's the true mark of a strong and confident football team, on the road a long distance to win over a formidable opponent in that fashion. I dunno, have we done that ?

Oh, heck yeah. And you?

The Texans are who we thought they were - contenders and a pretty good team.

Still much to work on - they still have to learn about Life-without-Cushing.... but the Green Bay game looks like just a good slap in the face, now. Perhaps we can meet up with them again?
