Ouch... looked nasty! I see Cassel is warming up - I hate big injuries especially in week 1.
Still too many Manning adverts....
Falcons 21-0 in the first quarter
Matt Ryan yet to throw an incomplete pass
His first pass was 50+ yards for a TD
Michael Turner had a TD run over 50 yards and another... 2 TDs
112 yards rushing for Turner with 3 minutes left in the first quarter
Their offense is on fire
Of course, it is against the Lions
Woof, Woof - Dawg

How are you doing that? I just have over-the-air channels.
Because I don't live in North America!
NFL have started NFL Game Pass HD for the poor sods who don't get much of a choice on TV. It's impressive stuff - streaming at 2500 kbps - with one game on the big screen and up to 3 on smaller screens that you can swap in and out of. But you can choose from any of them. And it archives all the games so you can watch them later. Course it costs $239 for the year but at current exchange rates, it's worth it!
The good thing is that he walked off the field on his own. Hopefully it's nothing more than a sprain. The 2001 AFC championship game injury looked a lot worse than it was...i hope it is the case..
Cassel did good on that drive,but it's against the Chiefs.Good confidence booster for him..D needs more pass rush and pressure....
My mom, watching Bret Favre in the Jets game, hopes he helps them win today and ... ... hopes the Packers lose tomorrow.
Jus' for fun, you see.

The only thing worse than an ad with a Manning is an ad with two Manning's. And the only thing worse than an ad with two Manning's is an ad with two Manning's and two William's.
Cassel looks much better with a half-decent offensive line. Oh, and that guy named Randy Moss makes any quarterback look nasty.
Defense looks good so far. I can't wait until Meriweather takes Rodney's starting job.. Rodney has looked really slow today. They haven't been blitzing a lot, mostly 3 and 4 man rushes, but when they finally blitzed, Adalius got that sack. The run defense looks really good so far against Larry Johnson.

Yup... that was the one that pushed me over the edge!
How bad are the Rams? Normally as a Niners fan, I'd be delighted but since I ended up with Bulger and Holt in one of my fantasy leagues, I'd rather they were slightly less rubbish!

Michael Turner just went over 200 yards in this game (220) and 2 TDs
He had another one called back on a holding penalty
All time Falcon franchise record, breaking Gerald Riggs mark
Edit: Norwood added 96 yards on 14 carries
Ryan is 9 of 13 for 161 yards
Great rookie debut
Abraham had 3 sacks
Not a Falcon homer, but they looked good today
2:00 minute warning
Edit: Final 34-21
Yes, it was the Lions

Cassel still has happy feet in the pocket,with or w/o Moss. Fortunately they were playing a glorified Arena League team today. Stone Hands Merriweather dropped an INT on the goal line on that game ending drive.He needs to get better hands,period. Adalius belongs on the outside.That's where he's best. Good to see Seymour make a stuff as well at the end..
Buccs @ Saints has been a good one... probably the best to watch as a neutral in the early games
