NFL Week 8 Thread

We get what should be a good matchup to start the week with Dolphins at Pats on Thursday. It'll be interesting to see if Miami can maintain momentum against a good team.

The latest London game is the Underachievers Bowl, with the Lions and Chiefs. The Lions' new OC is Jim Bob Cooter. Can't make this stuff up.

 

I saw JB Cooter working the sidelines a few weeks ago and LOL'd.

And uh, Steelers-Bengals. Big Ben returns and a big test for Cincy.

 

Oh, did I forget to mention the Steelers?

 

Steelers-Bengals is about the only compelling matchup during the day. Jets-Raiders could be good. The big one is Packers-Broncos on Sunday night.

 

That's going to be tough on the Bengals, having to play twice in one day

 

Probably goes without saying that Mr. Cooter is from Tennessee and played quarterback for the Vols.

 

The best thing that could happen to the Lions franchise would be a plane crash on the way back from London.

 

Ryan Mallett released. Classic "million-dollar arm, 10-cent head" guy.

 

Oops. Broncos.

 

CBS has only four Sunday games; Titans-Texans still draw No. 5 crew

 

Just saw a report that Dallas is interested in signing Hardy to a long-term deal. How 'bout them Cowboys?

 

I was thinking Georgia.
