To comment on last night's game, the Seattle offense is catching up to its defense. As long as Harvin stays healthy, Seattle should have one of the best offenses this year.

Also, Packers OL Bryan Bulaga only has a sprained MCL so that's a relief. Aaron Rodgers needs him so as not to run for his life every down. First the center, now this. At least both will be back in a couple of weeks.

I take it you have the 49ers as the 5 seed?

I can see 10-6.

Yes, good catch! I still like them even if their defense is not as good as last year.

I also bumped the Rams and Cards down a game from what I originally thought due to Bradford and defense concerns respectively.

[uofmman1122]

We definitely won't be as good until Smith and Bowman come back, and it remains to be seen if the secondary can improve.

However, everyone is excited about Jimmie Ward. He's already shown to be a very good defender in coverage.

I'm more worried about our offense, which by every right should be improved from last year, but looked suspect in the preseason.

That said, I think the stories of the 49ers' demise are greatly exaggerated.

Do you know what cures those offensive woes? Playing the Cowboys in week 1.

As much as I dislike the Vikings, they look more like a 8-8 team than 6-10 team. Patterson will take the focus off Peterson, if the QB can get the ball to him.

Offense isn't the problem with them.Unfortunately, they are built like the rest of the NFC North with a strong offense and poor defense. And the problem they are going to have is that they are the 4th best offense in the division.

[Seahawks08]

Some beautiful upsets today.

Bears lose to the Bills.
Chiefs lose to the Titans.
Pats lose to the Phins.
And Saints lose to the Falcons.

KC probably took the worst loss since they lost 2 starting defensive players for the season (LB Derrick Johnson and DL Mike Devito).

For fantasy purposes, I may look at Ravens RB Justin Forsett as the Ravens play a porous Steelers defense next week and he'll most likely be their starter.

And what a day for Towson's Terrence West with 100 yards rushing. Fantasy players may want to pick him up also if he's still available.

Patterson was/is/will be fucking AWESOME!

Vikes looked good today.

If Cassel/Teddy play like that weekly the team will be just fine

[Grizalltheway]

Robert Mathis out for the season with a torn achillies. Colts are going to need to score 40 per game to be competitive.

The Dolphins always give Bill and The Belicheats problems!!!!!!

I WAS hoping RG3 would revert back to his rookie season, but doesn't look like it so far. At this point, I would have to agree with you that they look like a 6-10 team. Hell, all the NFC East teams sucked this weekend (albeit one half from the eagles).

[dal4018]

This Sunday the Packers take on the Jets I hope Janis gets some PT on special teams????

[Grizalltheway]

I hope so to???!??*&@#%$?
