No offence you can't tell the best teams just cause of one game. Though so far the ravens are proving me wrong I mean we got 15 more weeks and some of the losers acually played well also for instance SF i think alex smith looked great. Lets just wait until week 4 5 utnil a quarter of the season is done then we cna decide on the best teams.

I dont mean that, i mean, after week 1, the teams that looked most impressive. I still feel the giants, bengals, jags, and the seahawks are the best teams,but, the most impressive performances are those.

ooo lol srry but i agree balti played relaly solid.

lol its all good, baltimore imo has a shot at the super bowl if mcnair is consistent. And all ray lewis needed was a big d-tackle and with trevor pryce up front, mccalister ans samari commandin the corner, and ed reed at safety, a consistent mcnair makes the ravens a very scary team.

*Groans*

Damn it, Skins. Why do we always lose these close games?

*Burns down neighborhood*


Ghostdragon

lol.

However, Ghostdragon has already won Week 1, since he leads with 11 and everyone picked San Diego for tonight. You'd get a DP, but it doesn't matter

I can't beleive some sports experts are saying that the Jags beating the Cowboys was a huge upset. The Jaguars came back from a 12-4 season, and people are calling their win an upset against a team that went 9-7 last season. Sure T.O. is suppose to help, but calling it an upset is pretty stupid.

If Baltimore continues to play like they did on Sunday, they're gonna get to the playoffs at least. And the Bears! They destroyed Brett Farve! I felt bad for Farve because he came back to get that. He should've retired

The Eagles are playing great. Good to see them getting their rythem back after last year. Making it to four straight Conference games, then getting a losing record has to suck.

Last, but not least, the Bills losing like that! A safety! They were playing great, but then messed up giving New England the victory. Bills still played great. They should get a better record this year.

My NFL week one final rankings.

as you can see my rankings arent based upon what happened last year or who i feel are the best teams. they are based off of numbers. numbers never lie.

Now about that bills game O_O losing via a safety is NUTS!!
refs holding the flag on the pats. One penalty BULL SHIT!! They were holding Aaron Schobal a lot yesterday. Those 2 block in the back penalties were away from the actual plays and had no outcome w/ the plays. The block in the back called on royal was so BS he just touched him and dude acted as if Night Wolf just did his charge move at him -_-

ok its all good enough w/ the bitching ill get over it. We get them again in week 7 before our bye week hopefully the bills will be 4-2 at that point.

after the 2nd series the defense had two rookie safeties out there O_o we lost our 2 starting safeties like that and to top it off TKO went out (hamstring) that series also. the rookies played well in place of the top guys, i was impressed. TKO was a monster on that 1st play from scrimmage causing that sack/fumble. he better be in the line up the rest of the season, he makes the D so much better!!

Willis was hurt, they should have kept him on the bench it clearly was bothering him as his running went down hill from that point of the game on. When he was out for one series the A-Train rushed and caught balls to move the chains then ran it in for our only offensive TD. He had the hot hand and should have been allowed to play more. Its about the only thing I can say bad about the coaching I was shocked to see a good coached game from the bills, its been since Wade Philips was coaching that I seen good coaching.

Willis said that on that 4th and 1 play at the pats 7 yard line, that changed the game in the pats favor, he said “I thought it was 3rd and 1, I wasn’t worried” O_O fucking moron!!

Wo San Diego owned the raiders, couldnt even get a field goal. My chargers r lookin good

Nate Clements always gets his INTS vs miami QBS and whos better at giving it away then Culpepper
its not just bills fans that are pissed at the refs this past sunday Easterbrook of ESPN he does that Tuesday morning QB colume had this to say about the game
"The Patriots were flagged for just one 5-yard infraction, although there were at least four plays on which a Patriots offensive lineman wrapped both arms around a Buffalo pass-rusher, and the Flying Elvii benefited from an extremely convenient inadvertent whistle that ended a play when a Buffalo runner had 50 yards of green grass between him and the end zone.
Meanwhile, the Bills were hit with seven penalties, including a ticky-tack nudge-in-the-back call that wiped out a fourth-quarter first down in New England territory and changed a scoring opportunity into a punt."

Just a quick reminder, all picks must be in by Sunday.

3 things:

1- No more editing of picks, as I have just written them all down.
2- Since we have a new player, and to put Check on even footing somewhat, I'm going to give him 7 points (thetruth's score from last week)
3- Check, since you only missed one week I will allow you to make a Super Bowl pick.

m0s3ph, instead of writing all the picks down, you could just quote all of our picks and put it in a post. it might be easier.

Actually, writing the picks down is faster. I tried doing the quoting thing but stopped in the middle because it was taking forever (and because I was short on time). Besides, it's easier for me to keep track of everything this way.
