Football is Hard Work and Groin Pulls

Miscellaneous NFL thoughts and observations.

Daunte Culpeper is the new Drew Bledsoe as far as getting sacked is concerned. Culpeper is more nimble but his decsion making process is slower. The only thing that will keep him from leading the NFL in times sacked will be all those three and outs he'll be leading the Dolphins to this season... Already I am so sick of seeing Peyton Manning in TV commercails. Is it wrong from me to wish a broken leg on him after a single snap this season? I guess Peyton has the time to film those commercials while Tom Brady is busy playing playoff games... I wonder how the people who picked the Dolphins to win the AFC East feel about their prediction this morning?... One of the picks I like on Sunday is the over (36.5 points) in the Dallas / Jacksonville game... So many people seem to be saying that the Patriots will have a down season this year and I don't understand it. To me - this Patriot team could be one of the better ones in recent year. The defensive line may be the best it ever had and for the first time in a very long time - the Patriots have two running backs which teams will have to always be aware of. The running backs mean defenses will have to keep more men in the box which is the equivalent of telling Tom Brady - "go ahead try and beat us." Look for Brady to have a HUGE year....
