NFL Week 3 Review


Remember last year's college football season. The wildest in history. We'll I'm not a betting man, okay I take that back maybe I am, but either way, this NFL season is getting very strange.

Dolphins gave it to the Patriots in Foxboro stadium. I mean Tom Brady is gone, but the defense is still in tact and Ricky Williams and Ronnie Brown ran all up in they house and took their respect, manhood, and pride in 33 carries for 211 yards and 4 touchdowns.

The Colts are 1-2. Peyton Manning and Marvin Harrison do not look like the same duo.

The Buffalo Bills and Denver Broncos are both 3-0 and John Elway and Jim Kelly are long gone.

The Falcons are 2-1 as are the 49ers. The football gods are having fun with this season as the results are very odd.

The sleeper that no one is talking about is the Baltimore Ravens. The Ravens are 2-0, and should be 3-0 but their game against the Texans last week was canceled because of Hurricane Ike. I'm almost certain that the Ravens would have defeated the Texans.

Joe Flacco is playing well as starter by default with Troy Smith recovering from a tonsil infection and Kyle Boller out for the season. The offense is very Raven-esque if you know what I mean, and the vaunted defense that has been the staple of the organization is back ranking second in the NFL in total defense and third in points allowed.

I highly recommend not betting on any NFL games this year because there are no gimmies. I love crazy seasons like this. Keep it up football gods.

Peace,
