NFL Update Week 4 & 5


Last week in Pro Football was week 4 and it was a weird week of football. There were a lot of upset games this week, games that should have gone the other way but didn't. For example the Denver and Kansas City game Denver most was supposed to blow them out of the stadium seeing as they were 3-0 and the Chief's were 0-3, but instead it was the other way around, Denver was behind the whole game and ended up losing 33-19. Another pretty big upset last week was Tampa coming back in the forth quarter to win it all 30-21 over Green Bay i doubt many people would have called that score. Lastly, perhaps the best upset last week was the Dallas and Washington game which is always a great game due to their long NFC rivalry. Dallas was supposed to have the best talent in the league and perhaps they do but the final score of the game was Washington 26 Dallas 24. Next week is gonna be another week for football and I'm predicting that there's going to be a lot of close games, probably even a lot that have to go in to over time. The only two games I'm pretty sure of are of course the Chicago Bears over the Detroit Lions and Dallas over Cincinnati, Dallas coming off a tough lose will be ready to get out there and so everybody exactly how Dallas plays football. The Bears no doubt have a good chance at beating the no win lions with the defense they have and their rookie running back Matt Forte i wouldn't be surprised if they blew them out. So in conclusion i think that week 5 there's not going to be as many upsets but their are going to be a lot of close ones I'm looking forward to another great week of football as should we all.

NFL Update

To me the ranks in the NFL are all wrong. I mean every week u see a top 5 rated team falling to someone in the mid twenties and i don't think its all because of just a huge upset. David and Goliath upsets don't happen very often, so in my eyes the ranks are all messed up. The Lions of course are the worst team in the league but they're the only rank that i consider correct. This year is a wierd year in football were seeing the broncos 3-0 for the first time in about 5 years. The bills as well are 3-0 and are looking at a good chance at getting in the playoffs. I don't think I've ever seen that in my life time, and as far as the Broncos go, they were good in the past but they haven't done this good in like i said many years. The San Diego Chargers started out 0-2 thats a news flash for them they were supposed to be the powerhouse of football with Phillip Rivers as their quaterback and L.T. lined up behind him. Their special teams is no walk in the park for their opponents with Darren Sproles back deep returning kicks back. Even their defense is beastly, i mean i know their missing Shawn Merriman but they still have Antonio Cromartie and Quentin Jammer in their secondary. So it seems like this team would be the best team in the league right? Thats the way they were rated but they fell twice in a row the first time was to an underated Carolina Panthers team in the final seconds of regulation, and in the second week they lost to the Broncos in a nail biter that they lost because of a bad call by the refferie. But no more yesturday it was Monday Night Football and the Chargers were against Brett Farve and the Jets it started out bad for the Chargers when Rivers threw a pick six to David Barrett of the Jets but after that San Diego really came alive to win the game 48-29. Maybe this is a new start for the San Diego Chargers. Whos to say they can take it all the way to the Super Bowl the Giants did. All i know is that they have the talent they we'll just have to wait and see.
