Despite winning their first two, this season is looking troubling with more mother f*cking injuries for the Lions.

Charles Rogers who we wasted our #2 overall pick on in 2003 is out for the season AGAIN. He played 5 games last year, half a game this year, and that's it. What a worthless son of a *****.

Dre Bly is injured, and so is his backup... Boss Bailey is injured too. Philly is just gonna rip through our defense. Ugh. But at least these aren't gonna be as bad as the Charles Rogers injury.

Talk about injuries, the Bears lost Brown, one of its best players, for the season. This has got to hurt the Bears worse that Rogers loss to the Lions.

So since the got home field advantage that year it is OK to overlook opponents? What an utterly dumb argument! Sorry, but they aren't mutually exclusive. For example, Belicheck with the Pats hardly ever overlooks his opponents and I haven't seen it anytime lately.

Considering TO's effor the last couple years with the niners, it is getting sick to watch him actually try with Philly. The Niners should have traded him a year or two ago when his trade value was higher.

Yep, and get something much greater than the draft pick. By the time he left, the Niners had no leverage.

The concept of relativity goes way over your head. A team like the 49ers has to play up to the better teams in their division. The better teams can't afford to worry about the losers too much.

Just because you've lost this discussion doesn't mean you have to attempt to resort to personal insults. The Niners had one of the TOP THREE WRs in the game. If any team is looking over that and not worrying about that, they are a fool.

NO team looks over LaDanian Tomlinson, even though he plays for the pitiful Chargers.

And the Niners were 7-9 last year, and before that were a playoff team, while the Rams missed out. Hardly 'losers'.

Btw, I bet most of the people on this thread would agree with me that overlooking a team with one of the top players in the league is foolishness.

It's a lot easier to overlook a top player when you know he doesn't give a **** anymore.

That may be true, but he did have 80 catches for 1102 yards and 9 TDs. And at any moment he could try on a play. Can't ignore talent like that.

I understand Urlacher reinjured his hamstring. That's two major defenders, Brown is the other, who are out Sunday. Ouch!

Bump for week 3.

I feel so dirty rooting for the Bears, but they're playing the Vikes so I have to.

They're up 6-0.

What a game! Favre throws 36 yards to Walker- TOUCHDOWN! Manning to Harrison, touchdown for the Colts. Favre throws a 79 YARD TO WALKER- TOUCHDOWN! 14-14. Manning passes to Stokley for 34 yards and scores a touchdown. It's now 21-14 for the Colts. Ahman Green has not been playing so well, so far.

Dang. The Rams defense is pretty bad this year. Maybe it's injuries, but I think it's because they lost Lovie. The O line has about 10 penalties a game also.

Favre is playing against me, which isn't a whole lot better than going against Manning.

However, I did have the Seahawks Defense.........

Oy... in my FFZ Fantasy League, I should have started Javon Walker. Ooops... hope it doesn't hurt me (it probably will).

Btw, that Miami-Pitt game: I saw some highlights while watching the ESPN game, and those must be the worst field conditions I've ever seen for a game!

Oh, and Tampa REALLY sucks.

I keep waiting for TB to show signs of life, but they are looking defeated out there.

The Bears are gamers, I'll give them that. Came within 5 while missing 4 starters on defense (Azumah, Tillman, Brown, Urlacher).

Now it looks like Grossman is out for awhile, and Philly coming in next week.
I got a bad feeling about this...
