Miles Austin…he’s hot, what more can I say. He also had 2 touchdowns and 10 receptions for 250 yards. I may have to go the extra mile to see him in Austin, I mean Dallas. I’m glad he’s part of America’s team because the Cowboys need all the help that they can get!

Second Quarter
Question of the Day
Can the Falcons win the NFC South?
Peanut Butter and Chocolate Chip Cookies
Kyle Orton is 18-3 as a starter at home, Denver is 5-0 and they beat the Patriots while waering peanut butter and chocolate chip cookie uniforms. The Kermit the Frog neon mess in Seattle was enough for me. What the hell possessed the NFL to dress the Broncos in those horrendous throwback uniforms? The socks alone were hard on my eyes. How can you have hot football players dressed as cookies? Ok this isn’t the Project Runway blog so I’ll stop there. Now, back to business. All I have to say is that it looks like the “big trade” may have worked out for the Bears and the Broncos. No one saw this coming but stranger things have happened in the NFL.
Good Rex, Bad Rex
Braylon Edwards put on a spectacular show in Miami but it wasn’t enough to stop those feisty Dolphins. The Wildcat was in full effect and after 5 lead changes the Fins were able to come out on top. I was little surprised that Rex’s defense couldn’t feed off of Mark Sanchez, Braylon Edwards and the Jets’ explosive offense. The Jet’s defense gave up way too many big plays and at times they looked like a completely different unit. Well, I guess Rex has some work to do. The Jets are lucky that the Pats lost on Sunday because the AFC East Division title race is still up for grabs.
When Birds Attack
Philly is still riding under the radar in the NFC. The Giants, Saints and Vikings are all 5-0 but Philly is right there. Sure, McNabb and Westbrook are always hurt but somehow Philly finds a way to win. The Eagles have made five NFC Championship Game appearances in the past eight years. However, they can’t seem to get over the big hump. They made one Super Bowl appearance in 2004 but lost to the Patriots. It’s been a great ten years for McNabb and Andy Reid but a Super Bowl would be the icing on the cake. This time of year we think that we all have it figured out. The Vikings are going all the way or the Saints and Drew Brees are unstoppable, yada, yada, yada. Philly is coming out in full force this year and when birds attack you better run for your life. Yes, I’m talking to you Tony Romo.
Don’t Call it a Hasselback
I guess the kid still has it. Hasselback and the Hawks shutout the Jags 41-0 on Sunday and I’m frickin’ impressed. Hey, anyone can handle a bruised rib these days. Personally, I’m just glad that he’s back. There is always a special place in my heart for talented QBs. Wait, I’m a Bears fan and I hate Seattle. That’s the end this post.

Week 4
Question of the Day
Which team will give the Vikings thier first loss?
The Brady Rule
I guess the NFL isn’t exciting without its leading quarterback, right? Wrong. I understand where the league is coming from its new roughing the passer rule, but I also sympathize with Ray Lewis and his team. However, some things are just out of our control and I’m sure the Ravens aren’t using the two bogus roughing the passer calls as an excuse for their loss. At the end of the day, this game shows us that the NFL is a business. It wants to protect its marquee players and who can blame them. Brady has three super bowl rings and was hurt all of last season. Are we really that surprised he got the refs to penaliz the Ravens. It’s not right but sometimes that’s how the cookie crumbles. Jordan retired with six rings after playing 14 seasons in the NBA. He fouled out 10 times. Some people may think that I’m comparing apples with oranges but in professional sports in all about the green(bean).
Manning Heaven
The Giants, Colts and Saints are all 4-0. The Manning camp must be jumping for joy. Maybe we can get Archie in on the the next Oreo commercial. Your thoughts?
Riding on a High
Josh McDaniels is not playing around in Denver. The Broncos are off to a 4- o start and have a commanding two game lead in the AFC West division over the Chargers. Everyone pretty much wrote the Broncos off after they Jay Cutler to the Bears; however, it seems like McDaniels is getting the last laugh. Denver’s upcoming schedule is not exactly easy so to speak but I’m sure the team will peresever. In the Mile High City it’s all about defense baby! It doesn’t hurt to have Brandon Marshall and Eddie Royal either.
The Bengals Deserve the Thrown
The Bengals are the drama kings of 2009. Every game they’ve played this year has come down to the last minute. I thought the Bears were drama king but the Bengals can take the thrown. This week the Bengals went into overtime with the Browns after Bengals kicker, Shayne Graham missed an extra point. In overtime, the Browns were forced to punt the ball with just a minute left in overtime and the Bengals made them pay by scoring the game-winning field goal. Hey, it wasn’t pretty but Chad and the gang are 3-1 and serious contenders in the AFC. Plus, you have to love the drama. Blowouts games aren't any fun; however I can sympathize f with the Bengals fans. I’m sure that a few of them are growing premature grey hairs as we speak.
Quick Links
Braylon Edwards is fueding with the King
Jared Allen is not human
Michael Crabtree may be coming to his senses
Side Note
I’ve been listening to a few of Jay Cutler’s interviews on ESPN 1000 Chicago Radio and I’m really starting to like that kid.LOL
