Week 3 is in the books and for some teams, it wasn't pretty in more ways than one. As we do each week, let's give out some points:
+2 Detroit Lions via Snapping the Streak - Call it the Blessing of the SWF. In the same week that the Detroit Lions make their pitch to me, they also snap their losing streak at 19. Coincidence? Hardly.
-1 Tennessee Titans via Jeff Fisher's sweatshirt - Bill Belichik is not amused. Lucky for Jeff, his sweatshirt wasn't the ugliest thing worn on Sunday...
+1 Baltimore Raves via Explosive O - It's hard to watch a Ravens game without expecting a 17-14 slugfest. 38, 31, and 34 points in the first 3 weeks? Who are you guys and what did you do with Trent Dilfer?
+1 Minnesota Vikings via Favre's Game-Winning Heave - I confess that I've been a little harsh on Favre, but this was a heck of a play and the kind of stuff we've come to expect from him. I'm tough but fair.
-2 Seattle Seahaws via the Lime Green Jersey Disaster - My vocabulary is not expansive enough to think of an adjective to adequately describe these jerseys. I have looked for some kind of logical explanation to these hideous things for two days now and can't find any reasonable defense.
-1 Tampa Bay Buccaneers via the Goose-egg - Byron Leftwich goes 7/16 for 22 yards? I have no idea how you average 1.4 yards per pass but I know it isn't fun to watch.
+1 Denver Broncos via Retroactive Point for Week 1 - I can admit when I'm wrong. I deducted a point from the Bengals for the Brandon Stokley but failed to give credit to the Broncos for pulling it off. If you missed the catch, here's an accurate re-enactment.

let's just say that as a titans fan, seeing not only coach fisher but the entire team in oilers attire was rather weird and a tad wrong...i applaud you for making note of the ugliness that was fisher's sweatshirt. i even asked my brother if fisher pulled the sweatshirt out of his closet.
ReplyDeleteYeah, SWF... giving the Lions 2 points this week and seeing the Lions tied for 2nd with the Cowboys in the reader poll...
ReplyDeleteNext stop: load the closet with Honolulu blue and silver...
