    Any upsets you calling?

    Are you confident your team will win?

    Alex Smith or Vince Young will have better stats?

      I liked Denver, but that didn't work out. I love the Vikings and I like the Jags.

      I was confident the Eagles would win, but I didn't expect such a run away.

      I have a soft spot for Alex Smith and I'm kinda pulling for Singletary and the Niners. They did well against the Colts, hopefully they can get a little consistency going over the second half of the season.

      I picked Houston but said Bills could pull an upset if TO showed up. He has scored!

        Yeah...I guess you could call it a wash.  The Yankees winning is more important than the Giants losing at the moment.  I feel like the Giants are 3-5 rather than 5-3.  These guys aren't playing with any heart with the exception of a few players...But remember, we're only half way through the season...If we go 5-3 the rest of the season, we will make the playoffs.  Someone just needs to light a fire under their butts and make them remember how to show up for games.

            You know what?  Eli hasn't been the same since that heel injury...I don't think he's fully healed, to be honest.  Maybe Wavegirl22 knows a good acupuncturist in Chinatown big_smile

              I think dohn it is a bit more  . .what I find a bit suspect is the play-calling of offensive coordinator Kevin Gilbride and defensive coordinator Bill Sheridan. Remember the swagger  . .Steve Spagnuolo brought that to the team when we were lucky to have him . .  obviously the "No attitude" is partly because of the players but I do think it trickles down from the top.
              The Gmen need to find their heart and soul. A little inspiration needs to be brought back. .. Maybe Lieutenant Colonel Greg Gadson needs to visit the GMen in the locker room and cheer for them on the sidelines.

                Yes, something needs to happen.  What happened to the Player's Council Coughlin implemented in 2007?  And if Strahan isn't too busy with Brother's and NFL Fox Sunday, he too should be in the mix.  Like I said, veterans need to step up and take the reins to groom these young guys: C.C. Brown, Kevin Dockery, Terrell Thomas, and fire them up. 

                Whatever Sheridan is doing it's not working...Either guys are missing assignments, miscommunicating, or the defensive schemes are totally ineffective...They play zone against the Saints and get burnt and then they play man against Philly and that obviously didn't work!  Guys are missing tackles and the basics are falling by the wayside.  Maybe it's a combination of all of these factors.  I've seen them make adjustments before, but they are getting embarrassed as of late.  This team is still too talented to not win the division and make the playoffs!

              BTW you  need to have a talk with Jacobs!

                silly drew . .Jacobs has actually played his best over the past three weeks. He is averaging 4.9 yards per carry over that span and has added five catches for 34 yards.

      I think you need to come up with a stronger adjective. . .and you prob could use the same one for your Jags today. . who was it that they lost to ????

    Happy to see the Eagles win but at the same time upset with the Phillies loss sad

    Only win that surprised me was the Vikings over Green Bay. I expected the Packers to come out swinging but it was the other way around.
