New England is looking bad out there against the Bengals. They are losing 13-6 in the 4th quarter with about six minutes left. They are only a touchdown down, but they look like gabage and hopefully they finally get  a much overdue loss.

Lions have to wait another year, PACKERS WIN!!!!

The Pats luck has finally run out!

Although I guess that luck has shifted to the Ravens. Sorry TRJ, but they scraped by again. I guess the Dolphins are finally getting knocked back down to Earth.

Typical Cowboys. Romo throws for 502 Yds and 5 TDS, yet he chokes yet again.

[The Red Jaguars]

You have to admit that the Cowboys game was very exciting and shootouts are always fun to watch. And you got to give Dallas credit for putting 48 points up against the Broncos. Normally, that would be more than enough to win the game, but it wouldn't be Dallas if they didn't find some way to lose it.

As for the Ravens, they did get lucky today. But the Dolphins also weren't some prize themselves and screwed up in a couple of place. The Ravens would've won handily if it wasn't for that Flacco interception. But I will take a win on the road against a decent team. 

Seahawks lost today, so I hope people stop riding their jock even though they are still a great team. That leaves three undefeated teams now: Broncos, Kansas City, and New Orleans.

Let the Vikings QB carousel spin really fast, they just signed Freeman. Now they have three shitty quarterbacks.

[The Red Jaguars]

Well, Freeman is an upgrade from Ponder at least. But that is not saying much. I always thought Freeman was overrated, and not just because he played for the Bucs either. He only looked good against bad teams, and sucked against winning teams. But who knows, maybe he will help put Minnesota back on track? I mean it is still very early in the season.

Jets vs. Falcons on MNF tonight. It could be an interesting game and the Falcons will be desperate for a win. I don't know, I kind of hope they lose and drop to 1-4. And then they will be really struggling to make the playoffs.

Hey, don't say that! I picked the Falcons to win this week in survivor.

Oh well, I guess it's fair game since I called the Ravens lucky.

[The Red Jaguars]

Don't worry, I don't see how the Falcons don't win this game. I mean a home game against a rookie QB that has played like a scrub? The Jets defense is the only thing they need to becareful of, but I think they will be fine.

Also, the Ravens play GM1's Packers next weekend in Baltimore. I was trying to get tickets for that game, but they were so expensive. It should be a good game though.

Unfortunately for us, Clay Matthews is out for a month with a broken thumb. But we will still invade Baltimore and leave with a win.

The Falcons look bad right now. I could very well end up regretting my decision to pick them in survivor after this game is over.

By the way, what are the odds that a team in the NFC East wins that division with a losing record? I feel like I've asked this before, but I forget if I did. Too lazy to look back at previous posts, so I guess I could be asking again. With every team in that division with a losing record after 5 games, it's very well possible.

[PurpleParrot319]

Okay, I'll just say this right now. This year's Falcons team is fucking horrible! What the hell happened to this team that's made them so bad?

[PurpleParrot319]

And of course, the Falcons lose. Their season is over and I am no longer putting faith in them ever again.

On the bright side, my dad plays the same survivor game and he got knocked out of the game last night when the Chargers (the team he picked) lost to the Raiders. I lasted longer than him. That counts for something, right?

Anyway, screw you Atlanta! That place has terrible fans (all that debris thrown on the field during that playoff game for the Braves last year).

[The Red Jaguars]

PP319, I think it is possible the NFC East sends a team 8-8 or lower to the playoffs. Those teams have to play both the AFC West and NFC North this year, and both divisions have good teams. The NFC East is already 1-8 against the AFC West. It would be hilarious if one of those teams make it in with a losing record, considering how much hype these guys get. 

And the mighty Falcons have fallen. Last year they only lost 3 games altogether, and now they are 1-4 through five weeks. There is just nothing good about this team at all. 

[PurpleParrot319]

As you said earlier, the Falcons should just give up. They lost to the Jets, at home, entering a bye week. Their season is literally shot.

You know, I must say that the Jets might be the luckiest team this year so far. Luckier than the Pats and Ravens. In fact, it's very well possible that the Pats and Jets could be tied for their division after week 6. Speaking of which, here are my picks for week 6:

NY Giants at Chicago (can you say 0-6 Giants? I can )
Cincinnati at Buffalo (I still think Cincy is overrated, but I think this should be a win for them)
Detroit at Cleveland (losing Hoyer is a huge blow for Cleveland; I don't know if that defense can stop the Lions)
Oakland at Kansas City (divisional game, but the Chiefs look outstanding right now)
Carolina at Minnesota (a game no one cares about edition! Carolina should win, otherwise they should just give up)
Philadelphia at Tampa Bay (upset special, if you can call it that; I mean, Philly can only beat teams in their division it seems)
Green Bay at Baltimore (to me, the Packers have more to lose at this point)
St. Louis at Houston (two mediocre teams; the Texans should give up too if they lose to the Rams)
Pittsburgh at NY Jets (yes, we're so bad that even I think the Jets can beat us..... )
Jacksonville at Denver (lol)
Tennessee at Seattle (home game for Seattle, so it should be an easy win, and possibly a blowout)
New Orleans at New England (Pats got exposed last week and the Saints mean business; see what I mean when I said Jets and Pats tied after week 6?)
Arizona at San Francisco (49ers are good enough to beat the Cardinals)
Washington at Dallas (I just want to see the Redskins win so they can lead that sorry division with a 2-3 record )
Indianapolis at San Diego (here's the real upset special; gotta be brave, huh? If the Colts win this game, then I'll have more faith in them on the road)

Atlanta and Miami are on their bye week, and they need it too.
