These Things I'm convinced of (1 Viewer)

[Jon_Moore]

The Buffalo Marshawn Lynchs look like a strong candidate to make the playoffs. Like, win the division type make the playoffs. Might not so much if Brady wasn't out, but yeah.

Ronnie Brown's recovery from the ACL has gone pretty ok.

The Patriouts COULD seriously miss the playoffs altogether.

Cortland Finnegan is one of the best cornerbacks in the game.

The Titans COULD seriously push to take the divison.

Kansas City should just hold walk on tryouts for their starting Quarterback Job

Dallas is the best team in the NFL.

Philadelphia will return to the playoffs.

The NFC East is the best division in football this year.

Matt Ryan's not THAT bad.

The Panthers aren't THAT good.

Scott Linehan won't be have employment when I write the week 4 edition.

Vernon Davis is the biggest fantasy tease of all time.

I'd seriously believe in the Madden Curse if a Seattle receiver had been on it.

Whatcha got?

 

[two_dollars]

good one I liked that!

 

[Challenge Everything]

You are a week late... THATS WHAT SHE SAID!

 

[Jon_Moore]

You are a week late... THATS WHAT SHE SAID!

She'd say I'm a week late, not you are...But I am rather late on this one

 

[SeniorVBDStudent]

Matt Ryan's not THAT bad.The Panthers aren't THAT good.

Bold statements ahead of Ryan's appointment with Dr. Peppers.

 

[brednbuddah]

Brandon Marshall will be the #1 fantasy WR.

J.T. O'Sullivan will be a top 10 fantasy QB.

Cincinnati will finish 4-12.

Buffalo will win the AFC East.

Baltimore will win the AFC North.

These are things I'm convinved of:

-- Brees is a helluva QB no matter who he's throwing the ball to

-- Anyone playing the Detroit Lions has the potential to violate the "Don't Ever Bench Your Studs" rule

-- Every year QB's are on a shorter and shorter leash. Seriously, talk of benching Schaub after only 2 weeks? Same for DA after 3? You guys watched these guys all through training camp and worked with them as starters and after 2-3 weeks, all that is moot?

-- Brady was the MVP of the Patriots all these years

-- Martz is magic with journeyman QB's. If he believes in someone and thinks they can start despite being a backup for like 8 yrs, I'm believing him

-- LT, meet the cliff. Yes, that's Shaun waving up at you from below.

-- QB play as a whole seems pretty bad across the NFL

-- Teams no longer fear Indy and their offense like they have the past few years.

-- Witten is a true stud. And not just in terms of fantasy. The guy does it all.

-- If a guy is going to score >4 TDs on any given week, it's a lock I will be facing him in at least 33% of my leagues.

ETA -- Detroit could lose every game this season and Detroit fans will still be happier than they've been in a LONG time with Millen now gone.

LT has not come close to the cliff -- it only looks that way; he will be just fine as will his owners. No, I havent had him on a team since 2005.

Cortland Finnegan is one of the best cornerbacks in the game.

Amazing play so far.I'm waiting for the impending point where teams just don't throw his way and we're cheated from the entertainment of watching him go against top WRs. Sure I probably would tell the QB to throw elsewhere and if Griffin continues to play well with him, it's almost foolish to throw there but....that's part of the entertainment of the game. I'm really expecting we'll be missing Cortland getting some action in the near future.

 

[Ghost Rider]

Scott Linehan won't be have employment when I write the week 4 edition.

This is week 4.

 

[EBF]

Greg Jennings is a beast.

I had him fairly high in my rankings this offseason, but not high enough. The guy seems to make a huge play every week. He could very well become the next Holt/Bruce type WR.

 

[gianmarco]

This is week 4.

These come AFTER the week is played. i.e, the Week 1 edition didn't come during the preseason. They came after the week 1 games. So, this is just a late version of week 3.

I liked week 2 better. This is just a bunch of bluntly obvious things or stuff that you're so wishy washy on it's hard to say you're "convinced" of it.Two 3-0 teams "could" win their divisions. Imagine that...A team that just lost 38-13 to the worst team in the NFL "could" miss the playoffs. Surprise...A division that is undefeated against the rest of the NFL is the best division in football. Don't go too far out on that limb...

 

[FUBAR]

Hard to be convinced of this already, but I think we may be looking at a Giants / Titans Super Bowl.

Which is cool for a few reasons. Collins, nickname similarity, great defenses, RBBC...

 

[pizzatyme]

I'm convinced:

The Colts will open up their offense after the BYE week and the naysayers will go away.

There will be more head coaches fired this year than any other previously.

There will be at least 2 more major injuries to skill players this weekend.

The Chargers will win by 14+ over the Raiders.

 

[tbbucs4eva]

The Bucs ARE better than everyone gives them credit for.

 

[Bob Henry]

Agreed. His combination of body control, quickness and speed makes him a dangerous runner after the catch and perfect for the types of route the Packers like their WRs to run. If he plays 16 games this year, he should be a top 10 WR in just about any scoring system.

 

[Grigs Allmoon]

I'm convinced:The Chargers will win by 14+ over the Raiders.

The Raiders aren't as bad as most people think... Hope the Chargers aren't looking past them.

Besides the fact the Raiders can't pass and have banged up RBs, I'd agree.I don't think a 1-2 Chargers team is looking past anyone.

I really appreciate your honest feedback FreeBaGel. I'll bring the cojones back for week 4. Look for it by Tueday 5:00 PM EST

[fatness]

Dallas is the best team in the NFL.

Maybe not.

 

[ourmanflint]

Dallas is the best team in the NFL.

Next to Washington :( Great post. I always love these.

Titans - best team in the NFL.
