WATERCOOLER CHAT: NFL ROUNDUP
This NFL season has been nothing short of exciting. Since the loss of Tom Brady in Week 1, it seems to be anybody's game. Would you bet your savings on any of these teams? Yeah, exactly. Here are Week 4 highlights:
1) Two words: Brett Favre.
Last week, Favre looked shaky and fragile against the Charagers, but
this week... oh man. He threw, count 'em, 6 TOUCHDOWN PASSES! That's
a record high for him, and the Jets offense looked unstoppable. And
it appears Favre has found a favorite target in Laverneus Coles, as he
hauled in 3 Touchdown passes and accumulated a total of 105 receiving
yards. Favre said after the game that he knows this won't happen every
weekend, but it sure gives NY Jets fans a reason to get REALLY
EXCITED! NY Jets 56, Arizona 35.
2) The explosive Denver offense was shockingly stifled by the abysmal Kansas City Chiefs. Experts expected the Broncos to roll all over the Chiefs, but that didn't happen whatsoever. Broncos QB, Jay Cutler, still passed for 361 yards, but still threw 2 picks and connected for only one touchdown. Kansas City was led by their all-star RB, Larry Johnson. Johnson had been stagnant the first two games of the season. He turned it on last week, but this week he exploded for 198 yards and 2 TDs. Maybe the Chiefs aren't dead after all. Kansas City 33, Denver 19.
3) Yes, it's true, the Buffalo Bills are a perfect 4-0, as they trounced the befuddled St. Louis Rams. The Bills have an incredibly stingy defense, and a very well controlled offense. It's even possible that the Bills, a team that has been pretty putrid for the past decade, might actually win the AFC East. The Dolphins don't pose much of a threat, the Patriots look confused, and the Jets... well, the Jets could be a problem. We'll have to see how this plays out, but for now, the Bills look serious. Buffalo 31, St. Louis 14.
4) Packers QB Aaron Rodgers
got off to an impeccable start, but his last two games have been
relatively subpar. He got a little banged up this week against the
Buccaneers, and now it's hard to really tell how good the Packers
actually are. Can Rodgers even stay healthy? In other news, this game
was a special one for Buccaneers kicker, Matt Bryant. He lost his
3-month son this week, and still played in the game -- even booting 3
crucial field goals. It must have been incredibly tough for him to
even grace the field, but his teammates and the Tampa Bay fans were
behind him. Tampa Bay 30, Green Bay 21.
5)
And finally, ladies and gentleman, the Washington Redskins. They
started off the season losing the opening game, and were pretty much of
an afterthought in the brutally competitive NFC East. Now, they look
like they could beat anybody -- even win the division. They were able
to march into Cowboy stadium, and beat their long-time rival Dallas
Cowboys. No Redskin coach has done that in their first year since the
1980s. Just an incredible coaching job by 1st year coach, Jim Zorn.
And in another interesting Redskin development... their quarterback, Jason Campbell,
looks GOOD. He threw for 231 yards and 2 TDs, and still has yet to
throw an interception this season. Can you believe it... the
Washington Redskins have a passing game again. The NFC East right now
is on fire; it's completely unpredictable. (And, in one of the most
bone-headed moves of the season, our fantasy football team played
injured Bengals' Carson Palmer this week instead of Jason Campbell.) Washington 26, Dallas 24.
The Super Bowl now... anybody's guess.
