Thanks! I aspire to be so gracious.
I have deep concerns about my RT. It's hard to even think about.
I'm going to kick Lane Johnson's ass when I see him. I am! I swear.

I kinda felt this one coming.
Vikes didn't capitalize on a couple of early TO's and that was crucial.
Thought Philly played well. Pressured Bradford all day and I thought they protected Wentz pretty well.
We're used to being the team with the special teams score.
All in all, we looked super flat, slow and pretty uninspired.
Good win for Philly and now we'll see if Zimmer can get these guys to respond.

I thought they did too. it was certainly a step up from last week.
I have a great special teams, for sure top 10.
I'm not sorry my team won but I'm sorry Sam lost. I'm pretty sure he would have loved to come back to Philly and kicked some ass.

As usual, I'm nervous about this one, as I've been for all of 'em this season.
This really could go either way, and Chris Berman wouldn't make it one of his weekly picks, meaning he thinks it's too close to call. They showed it on TV here. That shocked me, but not as much as the outcome. Both teams offenses looked horrible. If you would have told me last week how this one played out I'd swear you were on crack. Cowballs next week for us. We need to teach Mathews how to hold onto the ball and the cowballs o line isn't going to give up as much as the Vikes did yesterday.

I only meant insofar as him returning to Philly to compete against the team that had dumped him. I felt the same when Coach Reid returned the very first time and I would have felt that for Shady too if he hadn't been such a dick previous to him returning.

He was only with us for a year and HE wanted to be traded after we picked up Wentz, so no tears falling here. The guy everyone should feel sorry for is Bridgewater. He was just starting to come into his own and now they don't know if he will come back or not. That kid has a lot of potential. I hope this injury doesn't end his NFL career.

I'm warped. *shrugs* Sometimes I like seeing people be able to stick it to those they feel have done the same to them. I don't have the expectation anyone agree with me, I was just saying what I felt.

I think Sam was probably pretty happy with the trade until yesterday, He was leading the only remaining undefeated team in the NFL.

His O-line 'bout to get him killed.

His O-line 'bout to get him killed. Yeah and he doesn't have a very good track record for injuries. If AP was there, things would be right as rain.

Denver recovering nicely. Gotta admit I am pleasantly surprised how well they have managed after the qb upheaval. Had dubious hopes for the season.
Thank god I am oblivious to the opinions of others while caught in the blinding splendor of my own cleverness.

Some teams can win with their second string.

It looks like I will be watching the Pats/Buffalo game at best buy this weekend. I've just been informed that I have to go to the mall to drop my son off for a glow ball bowling birthday party from 2-4 Sunday. I swear to the gods in hell that I might just test run the lawn chair sale at Sears this weekend. And the free popcorn in the food kiosk. This sets things in a different spin.
Oh, I could just say that "who cares, I know they will win" but like watching any game. ( and I just loved that Vikings game) I'm drawn to these guys.............I don't know why.

I have a division rival in prime time tonight. They are in first place, we are in second. We're playing at their house.

I've heard better.
I watched the game at Buffalo wild wings. Best buy doesn't play the game they say it's a d i s t r a c t i o n. Their wings kinda suck though.

Brady is the best QB in the game.
