Go New York Jets and New Orleans
Even if St. Louis wins they are still knee deep in crap.

Can denver's defense
stand up to even the cheifs offense?
2/3 of the world is covered by water. The rest is covered by Marcus Trufant.
Funny, I said Larry Johnson was headed for Shaun Alexander 2.0
And then he bursts one for 65 yards.
Josh Who?
Holy crap, Cardinals fumble on back to back plays, and the Jets escape and get the ball at their own 43.
Warner fumbled on a sack and James fell on it at the NYJ 32, so they lost 23 yards already.
Then Boldin fumbles on the next play.
Josh Who?
Best bye week ever..
Think about it.
We’re behind the 49ers and Cardinals, who everyone is hopping on in terms of bandwagon stuff and whatnot, and they are both losing.
Josh Who?
how much are the Jets fans
Loving the free-agent aquistion this year?
Sucks to be their former QB… :)
on espn NFC blog:
With JT O Sullivan and the 49er’s off to a good start, is a 10-win season and division title in reach [for 49ers] ?
In a word,
No.
Let's see, they're probably going to lose to the Saints so that is 2 losses.
They have the NFC East and Bills so that’s at a minimum 4 losses…..
So I agree with Paul2.

If you hop over to Niners Nation one user just went on a profanity laced rant on how the 49ers aren't blitzing.
That being said, the 49ers are better than Arizona to me and I wouldn’t be surprised if it’s a two horse race between us and them by week 6.
Josh Who?
Based on defense.
The Lions offense isn’t painfully bad and they couldn’t move the ball at all.
O’Sullivan, as much as he gets sacked 30 times a game, hasn’t been a turnover machine like Warner has since opening day.
Really, neither defense is painfully good, but after these last few weeks of football, I’ve concluded that Arizona’s secondary is hideous. Until today (and it is the Saints) I can’t recall many long passes the 49ers have given up.
The Cards also still have to me, a mediocre running game. Edgerrin James, I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, is another Shaun Alexander, and that is he is so useless in the open field. He’s nothing more than a short yardage, goal line situation back now. Frank Gore is a much better back, dangerous in the open field, and he has a second gear still, James is past his prime.
Kurt Warner is wreckless, I mean he’s wreckless with the football when under pressure. Heck, even when it’s a 3 man rush he throws a horrible interception.
Lastly, special teams the 49ers are better IMHO.

It should be mentioned that the Cards were without Adrian Wilson
That’s a pretty big shift. Losing Eric Green would be bad for their secondary though.
This Cadillac comercial...
I wonder about the casting:
Seeking: Huge asshole. Must have tiny dick. Gravelly voice preferred.
Green Bay has arguably the most unimaginative playbook in the league
Screen to Grant, off-tackle with Grant, stop it with GRANT!

You have no idea what you are talking about.
This is long overdue.

Is it Harris or Clements that is playing badly or their Safeties?
I don’t get the niners game. Maybe Clements needs more money.
Clements is fine, but he's just one player.
It’s easy enough to throw away from him.

It's a complicated offense.
I figure they’re giving Brohm all the time he needs and no expectations. Worked for Rodgers.
by John Morgan on Sep 28, 2008 12:47 PM PDT up reply actions
Yes... but Flynn's a rookie too, right?
I’m just surprised the 7th rounder beat out the 2nd rounder.
Jets sure are coughing up that lead.
Who do they think they are, the Seahawks?
Whats going on in GB?
Why was a pass thrown by someone other than Rodgers?
Wow, what if Rodgers is out for 2 weeks or more?
No him or Al Harris when the seahawks play GB at home. That is most definitely a winnable game.
Wow, Jets, Wow.
Never seen a team go for two when having over fifty points.
you're killing me, Buffalo
behind 14-6 to the Rams?
Jaso Campbell looking pretty good.
Dammit, we got the NFC East at the wrong time.
what? really?
I used to love doing that in Madden, just to hear the announcer express his incredulity at my decision.
Being in L.A.,
this is the first season where I’m actually happy the national media has a Cowboys obsession. Watching that NFC East every week is really fun, especially since it’s got me pumped (and scared) to see what the Hawks do against these guys.
It's some strong football and fun to watch.
I really like Zorn and Campbell, so the Racists are easy to root for. The Eagles have my guys DeSean Jackson and Trevor Laws. Mostly, though, I hate the Boys and Giants. Always good to see them lose.
I’m not scared. I hope Seattle makes a statement this coming Sunday.
Was just watching the FOX postgame show...
…and they were talking about the Cards blowing it on the East Coast again.
I was thinking: we know the Seahawks aren’t good going east, but is ANY pacific time zone team good going east? Are there stats for this?
Probably DeSean + Trevor
I thought DeSean was a top five talent. Also, Carlson cost a third round pick and LoJack got paid first round money.
Man...
We should have gotten Chris Horton!
Guy’s already got three interceptions.

Oh and for anyone who hasn't seen this, you can
watch Sunday Night Football Eagles v. Bears on nfl.com.
Good to have you back John
How was camping?
I’d like to be the first in line to say I was very wrong about DeSean Jackson.
Man, this is a good game.
I love watching McNabb. That guy can really zip a ball.
from the overhead camera it sure looked like the ball broke the plane
but who knows if the whistle had blown.
Eagle's 'D'
I don’t understand them. They look utterly dominant at times, yet still manage to give up way too many points. 4 takeaways, 4 sacks, and still lose to the freakin’ Kyle Orton-led Bears! That must be frustrating for Eagles fans.
Of course, it would help to have arguably your best player on offense.
Reminds me a lot of
a defense that had an 8 sack day a little while back and still lost to an O’Sullivan led 49’ers. The Eagles are a force to be reckoned with.
Another entertaining week for football
The Bills gave me a scare, since they were my survival pick, but they pulled it off. Um, the Chiefs? Over the Broncos? Damn.
