Fact. Also, Tebow and his Broncos beat the Steelers. Soooo, Tebow > Big Ben!

one game is a fluke. two is fact.

If you're trying to be funny... please stop. You just look like a moron.

Great win by the Cowboys! Nice way to start the season and for once actually take a lead and hold it.

.... You have to be kidding me. Football is not like Basketball, although both are team sports. In Basketball, players play both ends (unless you are someone like Steve Nash >.>), offense and defense. Football is offense vs defense, but where Brady and Eli are never on the same field battling each other. Stop being a moron.

the truth can be hard to accept. i realize that. eventually you'll come to understand. i have faith in you.

Tebow had a nice run last year, but lets get real he is one of the worst QBs in the league.

Lol, no way in hell is Eli better than Brady.

sherman-tank1

then why did he lose to him in the super bowl? both times?

Pretty sure that was the defense choking more than it was Brady. Besides, you can't win every game.

The defense choking? They held them to 17 and 21. The defenses may have broken during clutch time, but I wouldn't say they choked. Those offensive lines of the patriots? They get spanked. I guess you can say they choked, but I don't think it does the d-line crushing them any justice.

Patriots vs Titans No matter who wins. The Patriots are more likely to win but the Titans might pull an upset. The only position for the Titans that I'm not sure that would do well is the FB and the rest of them are satisfying.

Nah, even if he picks my team, I can't get over how annoying his voice and all the sounds he makes are.NFL Network is where it's at for NFL coverage, they have way better anchors than ESPN.

Honestly the further we got into this the more this seemed to be a distinct possiblity. I'm not going to say to vindicates them, but I think it does prove there's more than one side to this story.

Get the story right.

"While the panel did not address the merits of the NFL's bounty investigation, it found that Goodell overstepped his authority in hearing the players' appeals of their punishments for participating in the Saints bounty program, which paid cash bonuses for hits that injured opponents.

The panel's decision states that Special Master Stephen Burbank, not Goodell, should discipline players for receiving money from a pool that paid for big plays. Goodell's role, the panel said, should be limited to whether he can prove the players intended to injure opponents, which would fall in the category of conduct detrimental to the game. Players and coaches implicated in the bounty pool have testified under oath in a related federal court case they never intended to injure opposing players".

They are a great RUN defense. Michael Vick (who isn't half the passer that Rodgers is) threw for over 400 yards against the 49ers.

Yes, Monkeytoes just has to pass it. At most, it takes 2 days, but no trade this season so far has taken more then a few hours to get passed.

Interesting to hear, but I don't disagree with the Goodell overstepping his authority. Granted the players dug their own hole leaving them in this situation when they signed off on on giving him that power in last year's CBA, but if they could curb Goodell's power with a verdict here that'd be a huge win for them.
