I am a fan of the Ohio State Buckeyes.... O-H!!! .... I-O!!! .... Go
BUCKS!!!






I use to be a Cleveland Browns fan when I was a kid, but I had it with Art Modell back in the late 80's. The last straw for me was when the Browns fired Marty Schottenheimer. I said thats it and followed Schottenheimer to the Kanas City Chiefs. I have been a Chiefs fan ever since. Now all of the sudden they have great Coach & QB and are 5-0!!! I still don't understand the turnaround but I will roll with it. I hope the Cheifs defense is real and can keep up this good play.

OH MY GOSH!!! We have a 1 in the win column...barely. Probably would've lost if Minnesota could catch the ball when Eli threw it to them which was I think 3 times and 1 of those would've been a pick 6. No issues were really solved on offense especially when you're signing cats off the scrap heap(Peyton Hillis at RB?), oh I thought you said Peyton Manning bro, lol. Defense is holding these backs the past several weeks to no rushing yards which helps but still no pass rush...
Season's about half over and some teams have pulled away from the pack. KC is still undefeated but I don't think they scare anyone. When we played them, we turned them over 3 times and they don't turn the rock over at all. Denver finally bit it because they have no defense. Romo proved that. Manning better hope this doesn't turn out like his Colts days where he feels his defense will give it up so he has to put up 35 a game because that will NOT work in the playoffs.

It's been a crazy few weeks in this game we love. The injuries are crazy around the league and are changing the landscape of the game week to week. Basically the last several years the key to winning the Super Bowl is to avoid injuries and turnovers. Then at the end of the year have the team playing well to get a boost into the playoffs. Hopefully your team can rush the passer and convert 3rd downs on offense as well. But at this point, to me at least, there's 8 teams maybe more that could win it all. It's Week 10 already so the season is in full swing winding down to the home stretch...

Went down to the new Giants Stadium to see them play Oakland last week. At least we won is all I can say. 3 game winning streak brings us closer to the division lead because the NFC Least is horrible but a "w" is a "w". The defense seems to be coming together holding opposing running games down and even some pressure from the well scrutinized front 4 rotation. Even starting to run the ball a little. I guess with the return of Andre Brown, the position got some stability...until he gets hurt again. Some problems obviously still remain because Eli ain't stepped his game up yet and the special teams, which have been subpar as far as returns and coverage in the past few years, need to come together. Today against the Pack, we're going to have to go in and stick with the plan of the last few weeks which is to run the ball consistently, commit no turnovers(unlike last week with a fumble on the opening kickoff and a pick 6) and have the bend but don't break defense. Again Eli needs to come through with our wideouts but we keep getting some breaks with the other teams pitfalls so we'll see how it works out. If we win today, then next week against lil D will be a huge division game for a chance at the lead(I think Philly gotta lose as well for that to happen but it's definitely a possibility).

Haha injuries. Losing half our defense and two quarterbacks as well as some ofeensive players has us in trouble. The packers :/
