2008-09 NFL Season Thread

well, see you guys next year

Brady just took a direct shot to the knee by some douchebag DL.
 
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 :eek:

Woof, Woof - Dawg

Because I don't live in North America! :D

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! :D

Ouch... looked nasty! I see Cassel is warming up - I hate big injuries especially in week 1.

Still too many Manning adverts....

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 ... :p ... hopes the Packers lose tomorrow.

Jus' for fun, you see. :D

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.
 
How bad are the Rams? :eek: 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 :eek:

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..
