I agree it'll be Jets over Chiefs
but I think 34-6 is pushing it. I’m thinking more like 24-16.

Glad to see Joey Galloway back
a day after I traded for another WR in the Shakedown League. Oh well. Building for the playoffs. Might force me to go 3 wide sometimes though.

ALthough that one was worth a couple of laughs. He appeared to think he was playing soccer for a minute there.

Chad Pennington is rubbing it in.
He was asked about how he liked the change in scenery down there in Miami, and he said “I have a great coaching staff, I love my teammates, and I love the fans”. Kind of an implied comparison with NYJets.
I’m glad he’s having fun. Who the heck IS going to top the AFC east this year???

Down 10 right now
Have Andre Johnson, Slaton and Garrard (and Gonzo tomorrow) against Plax, Jags D and Jamal Lewis.
If Plax sits I feel good. If he plays significant time I’m nervous.

if anderson could just throw a 3 yard pass this wouldnt even be a game. cleveland would have won it after 3 quarters
instead crennell just tries to keep losing it with anderson. why the hell wouldnt you try and get the first down and end the game??? dont they know they are playing the cheatahs?
would LOVE to see del bozo’s much balleyhooed always going for it on 4th down gambles lose him a game. especially this game that the gaggie fans already had in the win column before it started
