I'm glad the Raiders picked up the win for Al Davis today.

Then about our corners, when your defensive line can't stop the run, they have to come in and help. Well when that happens, what you're good at starts becoming less and less a factor because guys get open as soon as a play action is run.

This team sucks right now until they address both the offensive and defensive lines.
I agree. The thing is Philly stocked up with WR's and corners. They have some great talent, but that doesn't work when your line is not very good. I'm not sure if they need to acquire linemen through free agency (which would probably be tough to do considering they are not the only team struggling at that position) or do some serious coaching but something simply has to be done if the Eagles are going to compete. At 1-4 there are still 11 games in the season, but it can be hard to get a team like that back on track.

Okay, well no offense to this game, this was on Vick more than the O-Line. I mean, McCoy went 11 for 80 yards, so they should have ran the ball more. Pass protecting is always gonna be troublesome for them. The Phili corners did a decent enough job on Ryan Fitzpatrick and his receivers. However, Fred Jackson ran wild, and the Phili LBs and D-Line are simply getting man handled by any RB.

Oh and those 49ers? Yah. I'm getting really hyped, but still think they are gonna botch it somehow and make it a close playoff race with another division rival.

So yeah, im currently sitting at 104 points vs my opponents 103 points. He's undefeated, and I'm 2-2.

I'm 99% ****ed though because we both have 1 person left to start. Mine is brandon pettigrew(detroit TE), and his person is detroit's QB Matt Stafford :/

If I had started Ben I'd be winning 117 to 103. There's no guarantee I'd still win, but it would be a lot more likely.
He's trolling the **** out of me D:

Even though I made the mistake of benching ben, I benched the bears defense for the 49ers defense. Oh the sweet, sweet joy of seeing tampa only get 3 points.

M@v, we share an interest. I'm down by 11 points with only Chicago's Defense left to play for either team.

Here's to hoping Chicago forces 100 interceptions. XD

I'm up 38 on the guy I'm playing and even though he a couple players yet to play, it's pretty safe to say I've got this one in the bank. Unless Stafford and Forte can get 39 fantasy points it's a W for me. Also, I still have Johnny Knox to play as my 3rd wideout so that should help my safety net a little.

I'm starting to believe in ther 49ers. Next week is the Lions; we'll see if we're for real or not.

Yeah! Lions 5-0.

Glad to see they finally put up a good running game tonight. I don't believe it will happen a majority of the time, but it was good to see it happen at least.

The Lions defensive "Roarsome Foursome" line was getting to Cutler all game long.

The 49ers vs. Lions game next week should be interesting.

EE, I don't think you understand. The Lions are undefeated. The Lions.

Oh I understand. You see, the undefeated Lions and the gritty, underdog-sloppy-kinda-good 49ers and Bengals are just the jankiness the universe needs to settle how right Packers being 5-0 is.

It's all about cosmic karma, guys. This is how greater forces keep the universe from destroying life as we know it.

49ers are gonna get their ***** kicked by Calvin Johnson, because our overall Pass D is garbage.

Been confirmed that Tebow will start. Wtf happen to Quinn? Wasn't he second on the Depth Chart? LOL

not in the eyes of a jets fan.our defense should have been a lot better than it was.especially when we were actually close in the third or fourthh and with a stop or two we might have taken the lead.

Brady Quinn wasn't at the game because his GF was having surgery apparently. lmao

And he was never "really" number 2, the mighty combo of John^2 just said that to shut up fans who wanted Tebow.

And the colts are 0-5.

Their real name should of been the Indianapolis Mannings.


Also loltastic headlines for week 5:

-Eagles defense can't spot a fake play even if they went offsides.....oh.....

-Matt Starks comes out of retirement, practices 1 or two days, then shows the whole titan's defensive line how the old timers do it.

-Daniel Sepulveda makes his bid as Ben's backup by throwing a 30 yard pass. Who needs punters?

-49ers decided to re-enact Patriots vs Jets game one last year.

-Eli Manning....so close, but oh so far away. As in 100 yards and 6 more points away.

I initially would of said houston was a gimmie for the afc south since the colts are out...but they are getting beat up with tons of injuries. Titans might troll them all.

What an intense game. Akers just nailed a 55 yarder to give SF the lead into the half. Detroit is a big second half team though, so I anticipate the niners getting blown out.

11 penalties for 99 yards on SF =/. So much for being a disciplined team.

Wow, this last TD is so close under review. Detroit had one earlier.
