NFL Week 7 Recap



Week 7 of the NFL season featured big plays from big name players, a stunning upset, an 89 point game and much more.

Cowboys vs. St. Louis

I don't know what's going on in Big D other than category 5 organizational meltdown is occurring for the world to see. Romo's out, Pacman is gone, Felix Jones is out, Roy Williams, the safety, lost for the year and Boys have lost 3 of their last 4 games.

You'd think that the St. Louis Rams would have rolled over for the Cowboys, but the opposite happened. They came, fought, kicked ass and took names in a 34-14 rout of America's team.

There is no way you cannot tell me last week's distractions didn't play a roll in this loss for the Cowboys. Big ups to the Rams for getting things together, great win for Coach Hasslett winning his second straight game as interim head coach.

Vikings vs. Bears

No one played defense and the neutral fans loved every minute of it. You'd think Devin Hester and Adrian Peterson put on a highlight reel, but "Anytime" Hester left the game with a quad injury and only tallied 2 receptions for 22 yards. Now, AD on the other hand held his own with 22 carries for 122 yards and 2TD, including a 54 yard run to the house.

The Vikes gave former starting QB two games before the pulled the leash on him, and Gus Frerotte isn't doing much better throwing 4 interceptions yesterday.

Good news for Bears, Kyle Orton is doing well as the starting QB and the offense is putting up points. Bad news for Bears, isn't their staple their defense? 41 points allowed from a one dimensional Vikings team? All bad!

Titans vs. Chiefs

The Titans have successfully stolen the blueprint of the 2001 Baltimore Ravens Superbowl Championship team. Alot of Defense, a running game more formidable than Marcus Allen and Bo Jackson and no mistakes in the passing game. Titans are 6-0 and do not have New England or Indianapolis to fear. Superbowl is to early to call for this team, or is it?

LenDale White rushed 17 times for 149 yards and 3 TDs and Chris Johnson rushed 18 times for 168 yards and a 66 yard burst to the endzone. Make no mistakes about it, Johnson is the fastest player in the NFL pulling defensive backs' hamstrings left and right.

The Chiefs suck point blank, and that's sad because I am a huge Herman Edwards fan. Let's hope they can get it turned around for his sake. We need as many black coaches in the league as possible.

Colts vs Packers

Can anyone tell me why the Colts are 3-3? New England has an excuse, no Tom Brady. Indy has none. Peyton, Reggie and Marvin are all in tact. Sure Joseph Addai is gone but that shouldn't matter too much for one of the best QBs in the game. To only post 14 points is un-Colt like and for Peyton to throw two pick six interceptions is even more frightening. Are we sure that Peyton is better than Eli?

The Pack on the other hand is killing. Two defensive scores yesterday to bring the grand total to five for the year is amazing. The secondary held Marvin Harrison and Reggie Wayne to only 4 recpetions for 35 yards between the two of them. Aaron Rodgers didn't look to be favoring his elbow at all throwing 21 for 28 with 186 yards and a TD. Ryan grant carried the team rushing 31 times for 105 yards and a score as well.

Much to my chagrin, the Packers are just fine without good ole #4.
