Wow. The Skins dismantle the Saints and the Eagles barely eke out a win against the Browns. So much for “lead pipe locks”. And my wonderful fantasy trio of Steven Jackson, Wes Welker and DeSean Jackson combine for a measly 16 points.
And as far as the Eagles game goes: why in the hell didn’t they give the ball to McCoy more to protect Vick, especially with the picks he was throwing and the hits he was taking? McCoy ended up with 20 carries, but jeez, by the end of the third quarter they were losing by a small margin and dude was averaging 4.8 yards a carry but only had like 12-15 touches. Ride that horse while you have him!
Yeah, he had a great game. Brees, not so much. Washington secondary looked pretty decent, too. Solid win for the 'Skins.
And someone explain to me, when you have 1st and goal from the 2, and a Heisman winning power back on your roster, you leave him on the bench and throw 4 times? They finally converted, but it’s almost like the Saints are afraid to run the damn ball.
Saints Defense got their asses handed to them most of the game.
The Refs even tried to help us out, calling a clean fumble “forward progress. Non-reviewable.”
Oh well. Grats to the Skins. Way to get off to a good start.
Yep. Figured something like that was up when his first interception was in the end zone. He pulled it out though and the Lions are picking up right about where they left off last season. It’s still best not to look away until the game ends.
