    Watching Houston/Kansas City right now.

    Hoyer has been brutal with three picks so far.

    Pittsburgh/Cincinatti up next. Dalton out.

    Tomorrow it's Green Bay/Washington and Minnesota/Seattle.

    Being a Dallas fan definitely hoping the Packers and Bengals can win their match ups.

    -figured the first game will be a bore so I skipped watching.

    -Hill started it but Burfict and Jones compounded it...

    -Big Ben = all guts....

    -Chiefs and Patriots is gonna be a whale of a game.

    -picking the Pack and Seahawks for tomorrow...

    Yeah Bengals should be ashamed of themselves. The way they lost control of their emotions was embarrassing. They had the game in the bag.

    ...sad part is that Lewis will get the blame or canned. Cincy fans throwing stuff at Roethlisberger while he was being carted off was bad too. I thought only Philly fans did such things.

    -Bill O'Brien should take a run at McGloin. Hoyer was bad...really bad.

    I picked all road teams for this weekend. 2 for 2 so far.

    I expect a few suspensions and firings in Cincy. Marvin Lewis is a good coach, but he's 0-7 when it matters and lack of maturity did them in.

    Yeah Marvin can't control that locker room and while he will get a job elsewhere, the Bengals would be smart to look in another direction.

    That collapse was epic both mentally and physically. Hill fumble, Burfict unacceptable OBJ cheap shot, then Pacman Jones pushes a coach. What the f*** is going through your damn heads? Are you serious? What an epic choke job. Burfict should be suspended. Jones should be fined. And Lewis should probably be fired at this point.

    Why wasn't Pittsburgh penalized for him on the field?

    Walsh shanks a 27 yarder and the Seahawks survive. What a wild finish. Peterson's fumble came back to haunt them. That's been the only blemish on a Hall of Fame career.

    I believe he was part of the small crew who came to get Brown off the field.

    And as Brown was walking off the field with the rest of the coaches Porter was still talking crap to a group of Bengals players. If he was on the field for Brown he should have left with him not stay behind and escalate the situation. Also another Steelers coach walking Brown off the field shoved Burfict.

    Should have been a no flag situation considering both teams were guilty of unsportsmanlike conduct.

    Yeah I was less upset about that action than I was the initial hit from Burfict. I thought the second flag was reactionary. Why is a coach involved at all in that situation?

    Still a VERY dumb move by Pacman. Can't be stupid with the game on the line.

    Crazy miss from Blair Walsh keeps the Seahawk train alive. Yuck.

    - Porter even as a coach still yapping it up...
    - Jones has always been a dumb a**.
    - Walsh manned up to the miss...now is the front runner for the "Bless his heart...he has to be the sickest man in America" Jackie Smith award.
    - saw old coach Bud Grant in -6 weather jogging midfield for the coin toss...in a polo shirt. Old Viking mind games.
    - so RGIII making his last goodbyes on the sideline...next backup Dallas QB?
    - it would not surprise me to see Kansas City beat New England.
    - Denver will win...Roethlisberger gimpy and who knows if Brown will suit up.
    - Arizona vs. Green Bay... Last team with the ball wins.
    - picking the 'Hawks over Carolina...their defense will take Newton out of the game. 1 TD allowed in the last six games.

    ^Hilarious...at least that one fan had his dog rush to his side after he fell face first into the floor. Good stuff pound...

    Ramona Shelbourne compared Cincy's loss to their fans as to what the Raider fans go through? Oh hell no girl, we lost because of a stupid Tuck rule, the Immaculate Reception and NOT/NEVER due to a couple of boneheads losing their composure. Please...read up on your NFL history before making comments like that. While she's at it look up "The Heidi Game", "The Sea of Hands", "Ghost To The Post" and "The Holy Roller" too.

    ...after further review, she's really a Raider fan. All is forgiven. :)

    http://espn.go.com/blog/los-angeles/nfl/post/_/id/299/shelburne-why-the-raiders-are-my-team

    - Cobb seen running to the locker room yelling "You like that!" LOL.
    - I don't think we'll see a replay of the last Packers-Vikings game...
    - let's see if Manning has some juice left...Omaha!
    - feel terrible for McCarron but he went home to Katherine Webb so it isn't bad for him...
    - Strahan still has some animosity towards his NFC East opponents not picking Washington yesterday.

    That was my thought, but I take it he means "on the field."

    Honestly, most transgressions off the field don't matter to me (in regard to the HoF) but I make an exception for kids. Also, it affected him on the field, as he was suspended for nearly a year.

    - AFC Championship Game was really decided by the extra point. Moving the PAT back is a good decision to create better games IMHO.
    - Denver's defense had their hands on Brady as much as Giselle Bunchen has.
    - Manning is now a "game manager" and a good one at that.
    - Cards looked overwhelmed yesterday... Palmer looked shaky [busted finger notwithstanding].
    - Newton should be MVP...responsible for 50+ TDs is just insane.
    - Carolina LB Davis to play with a broken arm? Uuuhhh...
    - Let the Super Bowl hype begin in earnest.
    - No Mr. Perfect and Coach Sourpuss in the 50th.
    - Newton will have to beat the Denver defense with his running. He should be able to at least take the hits.
    - Denver has the more attractive cheerleaders.
