The Colts run defense has always been questionable, even during their championship season... And without Bob Sanders, it's a sieve.

Saw a picture of Ines Sainz, the female reporter who was allegedly harassed by the Jets. Wearing jeans that tight must result in some internal organ issues.

Were they actually jeans or did she have tattoos of pockets on her butt?

Jets' offense looked lost, I hope they continue that way all season. :fingerscrossed:

UCLA leads #23 Houston, 21-3, at the half. :shocked:

I'll bet the Bruins'll find some way to lose the game, though. :sweat:

EDIT: UCLA wins, 31-13. :applaud:

Didn't like the Pats' defense last week and this week was more of the same. They can't stop anyone and I don't really see them improving. Offense didn't do much. They insisted on going to Moss, which resulted in 1 TD & 2 INTs. They should've gone more to Welker & Hernandez, which was working. The running game wasn't effective. :shakehead:

Baltimore's momentum from last week was gone.

Nice win for the Texans coming from behind, these are the games they used to lose.

What message does it send when the Titans take out their starting QB at the end because as their coach put it, they wanted to win the game. :beaten:

Great catch by Moss for a TD in the second quarter, though he never had two hands on the ball, so should it be a TD, if you apply the same rule that negated the TD the Lions had the previous week? :beaten:

LOL, I thought that was a dopey remark to make... I guess coach Fisher still doesn't have total confidence in Young.

They wouldn't be the Lions if they didn't lose like that. :mrgreen:

If the coach doesn't have confidence, you really can't expect other people to trust Young.

Now Peyton leads the heads up against Eli, 2-0.

Things I liked about last weekend's college football games:

I liked everything about Stanford's offense: their smashmouth philosophy; their versatile athletic line; their throwback honest-to-goodness full-time two-way fullback/linebacker; their stud wide receiver; their running back-by-committee; their use of two and three tight end sets; and their outstanding quarterback.

I liked how Air Force played Oklahoma tough, losing by only three points. There's not a Falcon player who could probably start for the Sooners, but you wouldn't know it by the score. Further proof that the Wishbone offense, albeit in its 21st century version, is still a viable system over 40 years after its inception.

I liked how Boise State avoided a "trap" game and destroyed Wyoming.

I liked how yet another Div. IAA team (UMass) played a Div. IA team (Michigan) tough and had a chance to pull the upset in the last minute of the game.

I loved Michigan State Coach Mark Dantonio's decision to fake a field goal in overtime and go for the win instead of the tie; the ploy worked and the Spartans beat Notre Dame. (Shades of the 1966 Game of the Century) Dantonio unfortunately suffered a heart attack early the next morning; fortunately it looks like he's going to be OK.

Niners give the Saints all they could handle, but lose by a field goal with no time remaining, 25-22.

I was bummed to see the 49ers lose, but Smith performed better than he did last weekend, and the team did come back to tie the game late despite their turnovers so I have some hope for the team. It also helps that they're in the NFC West.

Happy that Fresno State won this past Saturday, but the injuries keep on piling up. Very concerning with a matchup against an Ole Miss team that will probably be playing angry after losing to Vanderbilt.

It's been painful following my high school football team this season. Tim McDonald (played at Edison High, USC and for the 49ers) resigned from the team so he could concentrate on finishing his degree at USC, so it's been rough not only with a new coach but with many starters from last year's championship team gone. It's a bummer to see McDonald leave, but he did a great job while he was there. This year's team has been outscored 141-42 so far in three games, and those 141 points are second worse in the section. The new coach was pretty successful at his previous school, so we'll need to be patient for a season or two.

Luckily the Pats get the Bills to rebound from that loss last week. But they'll have to do without Kevin Faulk who is out for the season. :puppydog:
