Fuck off. I will supply additional reasons as they meet my needs.

This just in, the NFL has changed it's name to Bizzaro World. That is all.

Jets > Dolphins > Patriots > Jets. It's like some sort of fucked up weapons triangle from a game wholly better than FE.

I expect a long Scar rant today. Tampa winning in overtime and lolphins over New England.

49ers looking to go 2-1!  We'll ignore who they beat for the time being.

Somehow the 49ers are near the top of the NFC right now. Holy living fuck.

By the way, did the Broncos win legitimately this week, or did the referee save them again?

Somebody bribed the other kicker this time, not the refs. <_<

The NFC East is now 7-0 against teams that are not in the NFC East (or will be in about fifteen minutes). We rule.

So long as the Giants aren't allowed to brag about their record yet. The Cowboys can, because that was a solid game against a good opponent. But the Giants have played one team that I wouldn't call one of the bottom five in the NFL.

It's nice to see the Patriots go down in flames. 2-14, baby!

Also, the NFC East is insanely brutal.

Damn, Al Harris ruptured his spleen. I don't know how long that takes to heal up, but at least they play the Falcons, Seahawks and Bucs before they have to play the Colts (who don't seem to be able to stop the run, so again, not THAT worried).

Took 'em long enough, but thank goodness they finally gave up on him.  Now maybe they might be worth watching in three or four years.  Maybe.

So Matt Millen got fired.

Awesome excerpt from the ESPN article on that I'd like to share.

Quote
Eddie Gates drove through the team's parking lot in his minivan as his girlfriend, Sue Stanton, held a sign, "Millen Must Go To Get a Super Bowl," out the window.

"I've been a season-ticket holder for 28 years and because they fired Matt Millen, I'm going to renew," Gates said. "This is the happiest day of my life."

There's nothing like beating Dallas at home. Winning the last Texas Stadium game was just gravy.

Saints suck, Cards suck. So really, you're 1-1.

The Saints and Cards are good. Reggie Bush is capable of taking over games on his own and with the wideouts in Fitzgerald and Boldin you can't call the Cards out of any game. The NFC East is definitely the best division in football. Al Harris ain't the Packers, but Rodgers is feeling the heat. How bout Brett Favre's 6 touchdown performance. Bills will win the division. The Jets are a very weak team defensively.

The Cardinals will end the season with a good record because their division is the U-trap of the NFL right now. That doesn't mean they're good. And the Saints? They can fly off the handle and do well, but they have no consistency at all, and just randomly dominate the other teams in games that don't mean anything.

Are you saying the Cardinals are bad then?I guarantee they finish the season with a .500 record or better. There the best they have been in years, you could at least admit that. Its the beginning of the season and the Saints will be more consistent along the way. If the Redskins can beat Philly in Philly this week, they are for real and they will win the division

The Cardinals play in probably the worst division in the NFL.  Finishing over .500 should be doable for them, but that doesn't make them a good team by itself.  They're going to be playing a lot of games against really bad teams.  It's sorta like Detroit last year.  They started 6-0!  Pretty good team, right?  >_>

THAT is what I was saying, actually. They're in the same division as the Rams, which is like getting handed two free wins. Also: they let the Jets score six touchdowns against them.
