nah the Jets always play the Pats close, even though the Pats have won the last 6 I think.

Plus the Pats looked pretty horrible, and Chad looked like Chad circa 2002

Yeah, but it should be a good game either way.

Just because other teams are retarded and trade away proven players for 2nd rounders doesn't mean the Patriots should. Everyone was calling the Patriots scumbags when they didn't take a 2nd rounder, but look what happened. Now they have a first round pick and won't be overpaying a wide out. Kinda sucks though since they really have no wideouts, Troy Brown is like 80 years (don't get me wrong still the man) but you can't except him to be a #1..which he is right now :-\

While the Patriots looked like shit, they looked a lot worse a few years ago when they lost 31-0 to the Bills first game of the season. So we'll see. Colvin is going to break Pennington's shoulder next week tho

If it was Palmer instead of Green you'd be singing a different tune so shut the fuck up.

The Jets will get smoked by the Pats, use your heads.

HAHAHA

At least the fucking Raiders are still shit. 27-0 and Aaron Brooks got benched for a 2nd year QB who had never taken a snap in the regular season before. :lol:

well Oakland has the worst o line in the league fuck

That game was so painful to watch.

I was so afraid he would go out there and have a stellar year.. Like 30 TD and 2 INTs on the year..

I'd be like :wtf:..

Guess I don't have to worry about that anymore..

No Pennington will break Penningtons shoulder.

And i'm pretty sure Deion Branch has never caught more then 75- 78 balls and 5 touchdowns and 850 yards in a season. He's not worth a number one pick. Not even if its a 31st pick. He's so overhyped its unbelievable. The stats dont lie. Go look. He's pretty much capitalizing on his superbowl rings. And thats fine cause New England found the sucker. The sucker being Seattle.

He was 2 yards away from 1000 last season - plus I am sure the Seahawks liked his 153 yard performance in the Denver game.

Still though, who decides who is worth a first round pick? To me, a draft pick is a risk where as picking up someone like Branch is not. Look at how many first round busts their have been. I realize a lot of NFL franchises don't think like this for whatever reason but I kinda disagree with their thinking, Bengals traded Corey Dillon for a 2nd round pick a few years ago. Completely retarded if you ask me, I'd take a 1,500 yard season in exchange for a 2nd round pick anyday.

Branch has had a pretty low TD total during his career, doesn't make much sense to me since in 2004 he only played 9 games and had 4 TDs, then in '05 he played 16 games and only had 1 more.

Yah i'm sorry. 998 yards last season and 5 tds on 78 catches. All career highs.

If I were a GM, I'd say 2nd round tops.

I was one of the people who voted in ESPN.com's poll yesterday saying that the Patriots got the better deal. Most people voted that they both did, but taking on a player who wants to be making more money than he is worth, especially one who is not a game changer a la Moss, TO, Johnson, etc., is not something I would have wanted to do. The only thing, the Seahawks will probably have a pretty low draft pick, but even so. The Pats should be back in a year or two.

Patriots got what was worth of Deion Branch.

Patriots have no wide recievers right now though, so while they might have gotten 1st round pick for Branch that 1st rounder isn't gonna do shit for them this season. Hopefully Chad Jackson can get on the field at somepoint, but its starting to look like he has University of Florida WR diease (aka not doing shit in the NFL)

They do have some real nice tight ends, but that only take you so far. Watson, Graham and the rookie David Thomas are pretty formitable trio of TEs plus they have H-Back/TE Garrett Miles so could develop as well

Well it's still too early in the season to tell so we'll see. Maybe Reche Caldwell can step up and become a number 1 receiver, it doesn't look that way but you never know with the Pats.

The thing about the Pats though, they might not even need a #1 receiver as long as they believe they have their system guy. So we'll just have to see.

I really don't see how the Seahawks are getting screwed in this deal though, i mean yeah the 1st rounder is tought to trade but who knows who the pick coulda been. Check out the Seahawks top 4 wide reciever now though, who the fuck is gonna be able to cover that?

That is misleading, because it implies that the Patriots did have a reciever before the trade. Branch was a holdout, he wasn't going to play this year because the Pats weren't going to do that. You can essentially say that they got a first round draft pick for nothing, because that is what Branch was essentially.

I don't think the Seahawks got screwed, Branch can be a good reciever and is the type of guy that can really help them, but because Branch wasn't going to play this season anyway, I think the Pats got a hell of a deal for him.

The Rams game in S.F should be entertaining to watch.

go @@@n cowboys Carlos Rogers best shutdown corner in the entire NFL.

COME ON ANDREW WALTER

Wow I fucking hate when football teams share a stadium with a baseball team, it looks so retarded to see a baseball field in the middle of the football field.

The next time Roy Williams wants to guarantee a win... he needs to use smaller words. There's alot to swallow so far today.

I am pretty embarrassed right now.

I picked Buffalo. HOORAY!

BTW Terrance fucking Wilkins is the man. Colts Special teams is second to none right now.

I picked Buffalo as well for an upset.

http://tpww.net/forums/showthread.php?t=51219 Compare pick and see who wins.

Poor Andrew Walter :(

Miami is winning the Superbowl

Five of my picks have already won today :lol:

With the first overall pick in the 2007 NFL Draft, the Oakland Raiders select Brady Quinn, Quaterback Notre Dame

LOL. Whos worse? Oakland or Houston??

Wowwwwwwwwwwwwww Plax comes up with the win. Giants almost fucked themselves over.

LOL @ Giants winning

Jesus...

Should not have happened tbh.

<font color=goldenrod>HOLY SHITFUCK.....WHAT AN ENDING</font> :D :love:

Jesus, I was so scared but the Giants gave me a win in the end.

Don't forget Tennessee

Pats up 17-0 at halftime.

I know but then I'd also have to throw in San Francisco and St. Louis. Anyway, I won all my 1:00 games except Carolina/Minnesota and all of my 4:00 teams are winning right now so it could be my lucky week.

What has St. Louis done at this point of time to make them one of the worst teams in the NFL?

Nothing. They've actually looked pretty good but I still have some doubts.

San Fran are on the right track too.

lol David Akers

Well that was the most boring Broncos game I have ever seen

Dear NBC:

Please get rid of Pink's version of the Sunday Night Football theme song. Better yet, have a theme song that doesn't have any words. Thank you.

-Joey

Patriots are winning the AFC East

I don't know when you posted this, but St. Louis lost to San Francisco today.

I can't believe they lost to San Fran, I take back what I said about them. They gave me a loss.

That means the Broncos lost to the 49ers vicariously

Who won the Denver/KC game, BTW?

Denver 9-6 in OT

Hail, to the Redskins
Hail, victory

God the Giants winning pisses me off more than the Jets losing


should have never happened, same deal as when the Giants beat Denver last year, they just went out to lunch for the last 5 minutes

also :cool: @ Cothery. I've been waiting for him to "break out" for like years now

I didn't actually expect the Jets to win, but in a way I did. I dunno, Pats will def win AFC East ccuse the Dolphins suck, but maybe te Jets will get a wild card. The night is young.

Jets aren't in 1st place

haha fuck you, you edited that quick you sick fuck

suck it hobag

The Patriots still shouldn't have let the Jets almost come back though and the field goal block was just ridiculus.

Remember when football didn't have these corny musical intros? Now you have to sit through Pink and Hank Williams Jr. for five minutes before the game can even start.

Not a good sign when it takes five defenders to take someone down.

the blocked field goal was weird, I totally "felt" it coming or watever, not the first time that has happened to me on a blocked field goal.

Yeah definetly not a good sign seeing a QB getting swarmed and sacked

Holy shit 5 guys on a sack

Do the squirrel, Kelley!

LOL KELLeY! I thought i was watching one of those NFL network commercials where they are having the dance contest... that was great.

-NBC's pregame shit is horrid

-Saints looked good (minus the 1st quarter)

add more tommorow..

http://images.nfl.com/u/photos/pl_652400.jpg


AWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW

Nah their pregame isn't that bad. The Pink theme song is terrible.

Yes it is.. Horrid play by play on the highlights.. The clips come at random times like the director isn't even watching the live show.. Not enough time is spent on the actual game footage.. Too much time is spent selling products.. "Now for the Summer's Eve Play of The Hour.." That teleprompter touch screen is whack as fuck.. As I said earlier they don't spend near enough time on acutal highlights in that they seem rushed.. But they spend too much time of gimmicky shit to make them seem different..

I dunno..

I miss Berman and Tom "Man Hands" Jackson doing NFL Primetime..

FIRE HERM EDWARDS

Atleast he doesn't cry after every game..

No, I do that now. :'(

Well calm down, it's been 2 weeks. Christ.

Only 13% of teams that started 0-2 have made it to the playoffs since 1990..

fixed

But for a network, who has been around for a long time, they should be much better than this..

Fuck the gimmicky bullshit and just show highlightS.. Yes, highlightS, as in, the high pointS of every game.. Not just one clip and then spend ten minutes breaking down coverage and schemes.. There are shows dedicated to that.. The sunday breakdown show should be just that, them showing what happened on sunday.. As I said, Berman and TJ are excelent and should still do NFL Primetime on Sunday nights because obvious ABC can not handle it..

Also, they just said "The Saints 2-0 when a year ago they were 0-2" on NFL Live.. Bullshit.. We beat the Panthers week one last year..

You mean NBC.


But I dunno what to tell you. Chill out? I mean, it's not THAT bad.

Krispy, i took NO and won this week bu they're not gonna be a great team.

Dude, STFU..

Do you think you need to reinforce the fact that you don't like the Saints with every post you make towards me??

The other 50 posts you've made about them weren't enough??

You think I "don't get it"??

Just STFU

God..

Yes, I do because I'm a Pats fan and it's my job to shove them up everyone's ass to the point that people want to slit my throat.

Are you sure you're not RP?

No, RP is a Colts fan. If I was a Colts fan, I would have been driven to suicide by now.

I think NBC's pregame and halftime shit fucking blows. I hate Bob Costas, I fucking absolutely hope that faggot Cris Collinsworth dies. Collinsworth is such an arrogant cock, he is worse than Joe Theismann. That faggot needs to die. I don't know who the other two jabroni's are on that pregame show, but the faggitude of Costas and Collinsworth makes up for it in any event.

I don't mind Michaels and Madden calling the game, but those homos suck ass at pregame/highlights/halftime show.

How can you hate Bob Costas? That's like a Patriots fan hating Tom Brady.

Yeah, sucks when you shred a defense for 300+ and 3 TDs and still lose. No D.

You don't like Jerome Bettis?

9-6...terrible

Wow Brett Farve had a good game againest the Saints Defense, pretty big accomplishment there

I always had a spot in my heart for the jags, but if they keep this up they'll be my fav again

Whats your point? How many good games has Tom Brady had this year?

That's how you play defense, fellas.
