Posted in One thing can be said for the Oakland Raiders. They play no favorites when they lose, losing as easily at home as they do on the road. It just so happened that this latest saga of Oakland Raiders football took place at Oakland-Alameda County Coliseum; picture this if you will. The Raiders grind out a [...]

Seahawks Miss Chances as the Bears Hang On in Seattle 25-19
Fifty-two seconds remained on the Qwest Field scoreboard. Down by six and finding themselves with a fourth-and-one situation at the Chicago 43, the Seahawks needed something…anything. Enter John Owens and a six-yard reception along the right side of the field. First down. Forty-six seconds. Out of the shotgun with time not on his side, Seattle [...]
Steelers Stunned in Cincinnati by Palmer and the Bengals 23-20
Stunning as it was disturbing, the Steelers for the second straight week started out like gang-busters, had chance after chance to beat a team they have owned the last five seasons, and in the final seconds, gave the game away with their defense looking like they had just run gasers on the first day of [...]

Jets Remain Undefeated with 24-17 Home Win Over Titans
If you thought this was going to be the week that the Jets came crashing back down to earth, think again. Wonder rookie QB Mark Sanchez threw for 2 TD’s and ran for one, and the Jets used an early 14-0 lead to jump start them, then rallied for a score to overcome a 17-14 [...]
Ravens Take Care of Hapless Browns 34-3
This game was essentially over at halftime, as the Browns were kept out of the end zone for the second straight week. The Ravens moved the ball with ease against the Browns’ defense, scoring on every first half possession. Defensively, Baltimore stifled the Browns, barely allowing them to cross midfield in the first half. So [...]
Week Three Preview: Monday Night – Carolina at Dallas
This week Carolina will visit the Cowboys after their tough loss to the New York Giants. The Cowboys absolutely need a win to restore some confidence in themselves. However this doesn’t look to be an easy task as the Panthers will be looking to bounce back from an 0-2 start. By the numbers this Carolina [...]
