That's what surprised me, even if it was against the Giants. He actually caught the ball, and that one play was a pretty big one! I guess Owens taught him something.

Go Bills.

Why do I even bother?

Re: The NFL thread 2004-2005
 

That's actually not too surprising to me, and I'll tell you why. Todd Pinkston will never ever be a "go-to" type of receiver because he is way too small to go up against the better corners. However, when paired with a "go-to" receiver such as T.O, a secondary talent such as Pinkston can achieve a lot because he is not the main focus of the defense's attention. The problem with last year for Pinkston was that he was the secondary receiver to James Thrash who was, in my opinion, an even more mediocre player than Pinkston. Todd has great hands and speed, and I'm glad that he contributed today, and I expect more of the same.

Being an NFC East fan (Redskins) I can't stand Philly. I hated TO with the 49ers, and I really can't stand the sight of him now. But I have to admit, they did look EVIL against the Giants. I watched that game and was so confused how all the receivers where so wide open, not just TO, but everybody. McNaab confused that defense like a school boy during puberty. I'm hoping it was just the a show of how bad the Giants defense really is.

As for the Skins... I'm excited that they got Portis. They needed a dominate running back after they got rid of Davis. And no, Spings is no Baily... but he is still an awesome CB. As of right now, I think the Skins need a good QB. Brunell will do, they just have to work out the kinks before they are actually going to do something against somebody like Philly.

Re: The NFL thread 2004-2005
 

Even though the Redskins are in the Eagles division, I don't really hate them. They're a pretty respectable team too. Portis and Brunell are good additions to the team, and of course Joe Gibbs being back is very good as well. This team will do well this year, not spectacular, but pretty good.

What the HELL happened to the Ravens? I had money on them. One of the worst offensive performances Ive ever seen.

Time for MNF. Should be a good one!

Re: The NFL thread 2004-2005
 

The Packers were even better than my prediction. Amazing!

Pittsburgh won...w00t!

Jerome Bettis game stats:

5 Carries, 1 total yards, 3 TD's.

Not sure what to think of that one.

Re: The NFL thread 2004-2005
 

It's weird that he only had 1 yard. I guess he must have gotten negative yards on other plays.

Re: The NFL thread 2004-2005
 

Yeah, our boy Duce Staley did most of the work (24 carries, 96 yards, something to that effect) and he gets no credit...What's the deal?

Re: The NFL thread 2004-2005
 

Sorry for the double post, but...

2-0 instead of 0-2 baby! Nice game tonight, lots of offense, but the D held them to the FGs when necessary. I'll take a 2-0 record going to Detroit and Chicago in the next couple of weeks. Way to go birds.

Re: The NFL thread 2004-2005
 

It's good news. I think the refs did a horrible job with the penalties though. Go Eagles.
