Charlie Whitehurst sucks, and can't complete a pass to save his life.

He went 15-28 for 2 TDs and 1 INT last season with me, user error perhaps? :lol:

Played Titans and think they were tougher without Bob, definitely a stronger passing team anyway. Kerry Collins was 29-36 with 377 yards but threw three interceptions. Was going be 10-17 going into the half after I made a field goal with a minute left, first play on offense though I got a pick six. I kickoff and the Titans first play again was another pick six, so now I went into the half 10-31 instead of 10-17. Some young guys and draft picks made some good plays and Tribow had a good enough day, 14-25 for 230 and 2 TDs, most importantly no interceptions. Let the second stringers play around 4th quarter since I don't envision having a huge lead next week (Browns) and being able to do that. Was a little rusty so might have to play a game or two before I play BDH next week.

Looks like the AFC South is shaping up pretty good with Jaguars/Texans with 0 losses and big games in week 5 against the Browns/Panthers. Don't get too excited Houston or I'll send Andre Johnson off on a cart again. :up:

Browns (3-0) secure 35-14 victory over visiting Colts (1-3). QB English had huge day with 132.4 rating, tossing 3 TDs. Browns speedy kick returner Miller took one 106yds to the house and the Browns Defense had 3 Ints, 4 sacks, and countless hurries on frazzled Colts QB Manning.

Browns prepare to travel for week #5 contest vs Jaguars.

Ravens have defeated the Cardinals 31-20.

The Ravens defense was able to stop the NFL's 2nd leading rusher Wells with 17 rushes and 16 yards. However they were not able to stop Boldin who had 12 receptions and 215 yards.

The Ravens offense didn't pass as well as they usually do, Flacco only went 8 for 16 for 159 yards 2 touchdowns and 1 interception. Ray Rice went crazy with 16 rushes and 159 yards.

This was a close game that could have went either way.

haha MJD better stay healthy, but yeah our games are far off. Last year I played the Titans week 15 and 17.

Noticed Wells got shut down and Ravens didn't throw for 500 yards, surprising.

BDH you figured out where to see QB rating! :lol: Looking forward to our game. :hi5:

The drafting of Hurd and trading for Simms, which allowed me to use Krugar as a defensive end, has made the Ravens a very tough team to run against.

Not that hard to pass against, however the secondary is good enough to force a punt or an interception every once and a while.

It took overtime for me to beat the Rams....but I did.

Dude hit a 60 yard FG with 2 seconds left to tie it, they won the toss but Bulger made the mistake of throwing on Terrance Newman's side of the field and he "Al Harris-ed" his wayto the endzone for a GW TD.

Great.

But why all of a sudden is the computer starting to be a problem? Ill admidt I was strapped for time vs the Skins and simmed the defense all the way until the 4th quarter when I was only up 7...then proceeded to fumble at my own 20 and throw a pick 6...

Then today Bulger was placing some balls in perfect spots?

O'well a bye week is up for me a much needed one at that.:pity:

I think sometimes the computer just decides it's time for the CPU team to 'win this one'.

The vikings dismantled the chiefs. You look at the scoreboard and you'd think it was the defense that lost me the game but it was my offense by far.

Well, it was much closer than the score looks.

I could barely move the ball against that defense of yours. You're right, if you work out your offensive kinks you'll be unstoppable.

Well once DisPak plays CPU we'll just have Lions vs Packers left. I better get a practice or two in before the Browns come to town, they'll want revenge for what happened season one. :lol:

Browns have a brutal three weeks coming up. The Jaguars, Ravens and the Chargers. Rough schedule patch.

game

SAN DIEGO, CA-

After the Chargers' mollywhomping of the Dolphins, a first in Chargers history happened--the game ball was delivered to all three quarterbacks on the team. Daunte Culpepper, Alex Brink, and Philip Rivers each threw for 1, 2, and 3 touchdowns, respectively, all with superb qb ratings.

Here is Culpepper's touchdown pass:

(note Culpepper jumping for joy after the pass, a feeling he hasn't experienced in quite a long time)

Had Culpepper to say, "It just felt good to get out there and throw one (td) against my former team. It kind of let me get the last laugh, haha."

Culpepper was released soon thereafter.

Yeah I noticed that. My games coming up are Browns, CPU, Panthers, CPU, Saints so three brutal games as well but least get a break in between. My last two games are Chargers and Ravens. One team is looking to get revenge on me and I'm looking to get revenge on the other. :lol:

hehe I better focus on those Browns for now.
