Week 2 NFL Running Thread: Flutie 24, Cowboys 10

Ditka is the most over rated coach in football history. He's Rich Kotite with angioplasty.

 

That was me. Edwards showed signs of promise but ever since that hit, he's been too cautious. Watching Vick and McNabb last week made me want to shove a nail through my head. They might not ever win anything, but damn those two can still sling the ball around - Especially after watching Edwards lob it here and there. Plus with the crappy O-line, having a mobile QB would have been great even during this rebuilding process. I mean, the ball looks it's being shot out of a canon when Vick unleashes, hell even McNabb where with Edwards, it looks like it's being lobbed in by 'Insert celebrity name here' for the first pitch of a Dodgers game.

I still want to see Brohm get a fair shot before Fitz.

As for Locker - I'm not sold on him. Sure, he looks good but he looked terrible against Nebraska yesterday. He's an athletic freak but I don't think he's it.

 

Living in upstate New York my entire life, I have a soft spot in my heart for the Bills. They're not my team, but I thought they made a mistake last season when they drafted Spiller so high last season.

The Bills have needed a franchise quarterback since Kelly left. Fred Jackson is a decent back, they should've gone for a quarterback. With everyone falling so far in the draft, they had a golden opportunity to grab someone and they lost it.

 

I have no problem with the Spiller pick. I didn't love any of the QBs that were available, so take the best player out there. I wasn't sure that Claussen was the answer. The Bills' QB need is so deep, they need to take as close to a sure thing as you can get.

 

Tony Sparano is wearing sunglasses. In the Dome.

Vikings go for it on fourth and fail.

 

And on the first play for the Dolphins pass to Marshall down inside the Vikings 30.

I love Chilly.

 

Lions appear to have a decent run defense. Too bad their offense blows. Lob the ball over the middle and both Scheffler and Johnson wait on the ball. DB meets the ball at the highest point and gets the pick. Just a joke.

If Calvin Johnson wants to be considered an elite wide receiver he needs to start playing like one.

 

Jackson with a 45 yard touchdown pass from Michael Vick, what a burst of speed.

 

Touchdown Dolphins.

 

Lions come back with a run-based drive and score on a plunge by Best who has 74 yards and a TD. That's 3 TDs for him this year.

 

If the Lions lose this challenge the NFL is a god damn fucking joke.

 

LOL Favre INT at the goal line.
