update: couldn't watch MNF games ... sigh, but I spoke w/a colleague and MIN QB sucks (can't read coverages, lacks accuracy, timing is atrocious and no rhythm) + poor play calling and MIN should just run the ball. GB QB Roger's once he settled in looked like QB from PAC10 days, though play calling was very conservative on 3rd downs

no idea what happen w/DEN @OAK, but judging from score, once DEN D figured out OAK O and D, the rout was on.....

comments: on another site I actually pick'd BAL, but I forgot to do it here, oh well and perhaps the SEA pick was ill conceived as well.

ATL looks really good and DET ???
same w/BUF (looks good) and SEA ???

some would say CAR was lucky, perhaps a bit, but I really don't think so. SD had a challenge end in their favor and immediately scored, plus CAR should have just kicked the FG in the beginning. CAR won despite their own missteps (and w/o WR S Smith)- this is a talented team.

JAC will have misgivings on letting DT Marcus Stroud go to BUF and BUF is very very thankful as they were consistently getting good PUSH on SEA OL.

JAC had much better starting kickoff avg (their 40yd line) and could not consistently move, which is a result of not having their #1 & #2 WR's as well as the ferocious D of TEN. It was perhaps "?fortunate?" that TEN QB V Young was hurt in the 4th and proven vet QB K Collins came back in and directed (pass'd) the winning TD drive. I'm not convinced that QB V Young would have been successful. (this is based on a quick review of stats)

update: now I know why w/reports of OL inj's...

BTW I was unable to watch JAC @TEN, HOU @PIT, & CIN @BAL

Speaking of inj's, NE QB Brady's exit in the 1st qtr allowed QB Cassel to blossom, though KC nearly won, if only their WR's didn't get the "dropsies".

SEA w/o WR B Engram, just doesn't look the same.
DET is pig headed w/runnin the ball.
Did ATL look good because of DET D? or because they have finally arrived? I don't think they'll be as good as CLE was last year.

if SF could've just limited their TO's as ARI is a bit inept in the RedZone (poor play calling IMHO)...
