NFL - Are You Ready For Some Football?! - 2009 Regular Season

[SlowwHand]

Either of those is bound to be a thriller.

Uh... Sloww... I think Zopp was questioning/commenting on which would be the "biggest" game of the year... not on who Cleveland was playing this week

Are you sure? Browns vs. Raiders is on Dec 27

Raiders already have 2 wins. Try and keep up.

[Lord Avalon]

Remaining schedules:

Det: Cle, GB, @Cin, @Bal, AZ, @SF, Chi
Cle: @Det, @Cin, SD, Pitt, @KC, Oak, Jax
StL: AZ, Sea, @Chi, @TN, Hou, @AZ, SF
TB: NO, @Atl, @Car, NYJ, @Sea, @NO, Atl

Opportunities to screw up: Det beating Cle, even if that happens, Cle has KC AND Oak. Really nightmarish any given Sunday if another team loses to one of these four.

I think Cle takes itself out of the running by beating Det.

And it seems Dick Jauron is gone as coach of the Bills:

More good news for FJax owners.

Who's up next? Chuckie?

I said either game.

A pretty fast edit for somebody named Sloww

The guy has a tough row to hoe.

Fewell's football philosophy: "Play like hell and win"
Posted by Mike Florio on November 17, 2009 8:49 PM ET
The Buffalo Bills introduced interim coach Perry Fewell on Tuesday night via a brief press conference at team headquarters.

Asked to explain his football philosophy, Fewell was concise: "Play like hell and win."

We already like this guy.

Fewell called the job an "opportunity of a lifetime," but he declined to talk about whether owner Ralph Wilson has indicated that the opportunity could extend beyond 2009.

As to the offense, Fewell plans no major changes. "We are who we are," he said.

Fewell also said that he'll name a starting quarterback for Sunday's game at Jacksonville on Wednesday.

So will the Bills be any different under Perry Fewell than they were under Dick Jauron?

"We'll be the Buffalo Bills," Fewell said. "We'll represent you well, and we'll be the Buffalo Bills."

Fewell joined the Bills in 2006. Before that, he spent 2005 with the Bears, 2003 and 2004 with the Rams, and 1998 through 2002 with the Jaguars. The 47-year-old coached at the college level from 1985 through 1997.

Nothing to lose, everything to gain.

I hope he does well, pulls an upset or two.

[SlowwHand]

Really, this is a near perfect situation. How can he not improve the team?

[SlowwHand]

The only thing surprising in this news is that it's taken so long.

Raiders coach Tom Cable has tabbed Bruce Gradkowski the starting quarterback, benching former No. 1 overall draft pick JaMarcus Russell, according to the team.

Brown Placed On Injured Reserve

Dolphins RB Ronnie Brown (foot) has been placed on injured reserve, ending his season.

According to Dolphins beat writer Jeff Darlington, Ronnie Brown's season-ending right foot injury is "believed" to be a Lisfranc fracture.

The break will likely require surgery and perhaps bring into question Brown's status for 2010 training camp. By late July next year, he'll be seven months removed from the injury. A source tells Darlington that the mid-foot fracture is "not anything major as far as career or long term," but Brown will likely miss all of minicamps and OTAs. Noted orthopedist Dr. Robert Anderson will determine whether Brown needs an operation. Nov. 18 - 7:51 pm et

EPW has lost R. Brown and Bowe this week in IDP...

[SlowwHand]

Good.

I mean, oh bummer.
