I had McFadden,Stafford, and Lions D. Also had Charles. I somehow knew he was going to be a bust this year, but took him because he fell to me with the 6th pick.
Thank you 49'ers. Not a fan, but I always appreciate anyone beating the Cowgirls.

Niners finally looking good. Now that they have a real coach.
God ALex SMith sucks so bad.
Miles Austin is doing work for my fantasy team.
Looks like you can't appreciate that today.
God, the Niners are terrible. Sounded like their were more Cowboy's fans than Niner's fans in the stadium.

Charles and Bowe are hurting one of my fantasy teams right now. Hate to admit it, but Charlie Weis appears to be quite the offensive genius. Without him KC looks 2-14 bad.
That's being kind. They look 0-16 bad right now. I think the Colts could pummel them.

I wasn't sold on Cam Newton being a very good NFL QB.
Yet, outside of Tom Brady, who has looked more impressive?
Forget rookie of the year. He might be in the running for MVP!

Not with those interceptions. But ****, he's bound to only improve.

Agreed. He's gotta cut downon those.
But look @ the rushing yards today. GB shut down that rushing attack, Cam wasn't getting ANY help, and yet he still chucked the rock for over 400 yards. Plus, GB is a pretty good team in its own right.
They probably aren't making the playoffs either, they have a brutal schedule.

One thing that's cool, is that the NFL has such good offensive coordinating. Even the crappy teams have chances to beat others. Just look @ the Bills today. Or the Falcons today. It looked like the Eagles were going to blow them out. Yet, Atlanta varied things up. Got the ball to their security blanket TE... Hit a few long bombs... Then opened things up with some nice draw plays up the middle to Turner.
Despite losing their starting QB to injury and rolling without Vince Young, the Eagles still had an opportunity at the end to win the game. the right play was dialed in, the receiver just failed to extend his arms out and grab it.
It's awesome to see offensive football with such a variety of plays. Screens, draws, long bombs, play action, etc. Such a difference from BYU's craptastic offense. And so much different than so many college teams who just try to win with their talent alone. The SEC is a perfect example of this. Simple plays go big, because their players are so much more athletically superior than their opponents.
Look at the Pats today, Welker or Woodhead (was that their RBs name?), probably didn't impress anyone in athletic tests. Yet, put them in a very innovative and aggressive scheme, and these guys become virtually unguardable. Billicek could probably grab half the members on this board and turn them into pro-bowlers.
Personally, I think that no-huddle offense might be the "next big thing." Doing that prevents the defense from subbing their bigs and wears them out. It also forces the defense to react quicker and prevents them from being able to get a good feel for formations and plays.
It basically turns the game into a 7 on 7 rapid fire passing contest. Even if you don't have a big play star receiver, you could still be able to connect on lil quick 5-10 yard dink passes before the defense even sets up and knows what hit them. Before you know it, you're knocking on the endzone's door.

I picked Bowe very high and I already regret it.
Luckily, as a hunch I picked Carolina's Steve Smith late in the my FF draft. He's had 150+ yards receiving both games. People had written him off; but Carolina hasn't had anything resembling a QB for the last 3 years.

The Bills went to (and lost) 4 Super Bowls in the 90s with the no huddle offense.
The problem is it burns out your own defense too with significantly less time of possession.
He is throwing a ridiculous amount of attempts also. Most teams try to protect rookies, but Carolina is giving him full freedom to throw.
