NFL Update Week 5 & 6


Another week of football is down the drains and this week there wasn't to much that surprised me. One of the few upsets of the week was Miami taking down San Diego 17-10, Miami coming off an almost no win season last has really came to play in these last couple weeks showing what Dolphins football really is. There were a few come from behind wins in the fourth quarter that otherwise would have been pretty big upsets, the Atlanta Falcons against Green Bay was close to being one of these games. Instead, the Falcons came out and surprised everyone by beating the Pack 27-24, the two teams combined to score 24 points in the fourth quarter. Perhaps in my opinion the best game of the week was on Monday Night Football where the New Orleans Saints were hosting the Minnesota Vikings. The game was somewhat ridiculous everything that could have happened did from Antoine Winfield catching a blocked Field Goal and taking it back for six to Reggie Bush returning two punts for touchdowns and combining for close to 300 all purpose yards. The whole game was back and forth between the two teams and ending in a Vikings 30-27 win over the Saints. This is the recap of what happened during the game. http://www.nfl.com/gamecenter/recap?game_id=29602&displayPage=tab_recap&season=2008&week=REG5. In Week 6 coming up once again the Lions are going to lose especially to the Vikings I'm predicting that Adrian Peterson is going to run all over their defense up and down the field. Other than that game i don't think theres going to be very many blowouts this week, which is good id much rather watch a close game then a blowout any day that's one reason why the Super Bowl is so entertaining teams don't usually get blown out when they're the best in their conference. It happens its just not usual. I think I'm gonna be watching the Dallas and Arizona game I'm expecting it to be a close forth quarter win maybe even in overtime. Any way you look at it this is going to be a great week of football and I'm looking forward to watching it.
