Signal Finder: BUF @ NYJ, TB @ ATL, TEN @ HOU (end), PIT @ BAL
Part of the problem is that the Jets can't tackle Lynch. Which is good for the Bills since Losman really hasn't been very good at all. GUNSLINGER. Who am I talking about there? That kickoff return TD getting called back is a killer. And that Jackson touchdown is a crusher. Man, the Jets fans have absolutely turned on them. Listen to those boos. What the... why is Losman dropping back to pass? Lynch was running through the Jets' defense like it was butter. Sweet Jebus. MIRACLE AT THE MEADOWLANDS 3. (This is 2, because you're going to ask.) Oh, the referee got clocked during the scrum? I wondered what was going on there when Gumbel remarked on him and Favre joking around on the sidelines afterward. This should never have happened. (Jets 31, Bills 27)
Are these signs of life from the Chargers? And does it matter? (Chargers 22, Chiefs 21)
Bad move going for it there, Fisher. That's an easy field goal. Then there was that weird explanation about how he took the wind in the third quarter when he should have taken it in the fourth and he lost me. I mean, maybe it's not that easy a field goal, but I think you can get away with running the ball instead of throwing a medium fly pattern to a receiver who's not very good from a quarterback who's having a bad day. (Texans 13, Titans 12)
I mean... the Lions have been in these games. They just don't have any talent. (Colts 31, Lions 21)
This game got switched on us from Redskins-Bengals and huzzah to that. The announcers calling the Bryant touchdown before it happened - is that good or bad? I didn't expect the Bucs to get run on as badly again as they are today after Monday night. Turner's made life so much easier for Ryan it's not even funny. Wow, they just completely whiffed and missed the guy who blocked that punt. I guess the Falcons are ready to go to overtime. And there's the "contractually we can only keep you here until 4:15" speech, but it might not matter as this has been the fastest overtime ever. It's GOOD. A lot of NFC contenders are very unhappy right now. For the Falcons to look as sloppy as they did and still win is... something. I'm just not sure what. (Falcons 13, Buccaneers 10, OT)

The return game may well be the best weapon to counteract either of these defenses. I'm sure Nantz got it, Phil; he just chose not to acknowledge it. And now you're gonna leave him hanging? "We don't have time." This game is going basically exactly as expected. Really? Ed Reed didn't run that back for a score? I'm stunned. That's a great job by the Steelers to only give up a field goal there. 9-6 seems about right, doesn't it? Look at this drive. That might be the shortest big catch Nate Washington's ever made. How many clutch catches has Ward made in this game. This is "The Drive", isn't it? Didn't that start at the 8? Also these are the old Browns. WHY ARE YOU SPIKING THE BALL?? Wow. Really? I think he's in. Oh, I didn't notice the ball itself; I just thought his feet touched in the end zone. And they change the call. TOUCHDOWN. Harbaugh is displeased. Would they have gone for it on fourth and six inches or whatever? Would you have gone for it? (Steelers 13, Ravens 9)
Way to get the fans back on your side, T.O. Seriously, why has no one ever told him to shut the fuck up? Eli is getting killed out there. Romo's not feeling all that well himself. Can anybody run the ball tonight? Seriously, Eli's getting crushed. I think we've learned that the Giants can't survive without both Burress and Jacobs. See? Winning DOES solve everything. (Cowboys 20, Giants 8)
That's a good start. On one hand, it's nice to see Ken Dorsey getting work. On the other hand, Brian Sipe is two phone calls away. Donte' Stallworth LIVES. See, this is the other thing with Reid and this has always been true: He'll try to get too cute sometimes and end up outsmarting himself. (That said, a better throw and we're not bringing this up.) That's why we pay Samuel the big money. Again with bad things happening right before halftime. This might be the first game all season Braylon Edwards hasn't dropped a pass. How did Lewis get that wide open? Expectations this year for the Browns were, I thought, unrealistic, but they should be better than this. I mean, how do you not score a touchdown in a month even by accident? Well there's one. Put in A.J.! The Eagles could have easily scored 45. (Eagles 30, Browns 10)
FANTASY REPORT
JackSux 5: We have a consolation bracket? Why do we have a consolation bracket? Seriously, I just found this by accident. Not much has changed, though, as the Seagulls still can't score points to save their lives. Up with the big boys, it's Johnny vs. Rob for the title.
