Another week, another great football weekend.  After a disappointing loss to Tampa, the Falcons take care of the Chiefs.  The Chiefs better be careful, a 0-16 season might be on the horizon.  Buffalo wins another close game, beating the Raiders who are not looking great in this young season.  Tampa gets it’s second win in a row as they take care of the Bears in overtime.  Carolina beat Minnesota without too much trouble and the lowly Miami Dolphins beat up on the New England Patriots, handing the Pats their first regular season loss in 21 games.  The New York football Giants and the Titans both roll to three wins a piece.  I think the Giants want another ring.  Jacksonville and Seattle each get their first wins of the season and upstart Arizona gets a reality check, losing to Washington.  And the experiment in New York seems to be struggling as Favre loses big to the Chargers on Monday night.  There seems to be a lot of parody this season and other than Dallas and the Giants, there are no real standouts yet.  But anything can happen, that’s why they play the games.

The second week of my favorite time of year has passed, and again it was a good week of football.  There were some great games and a couple not so great games.  There were also some good individual efforts.  Arron Rodgers seems to be stepping into his role as starter in Green Bay.  Those are some pretty big shoes to fill son.  Let’s just hope that we don’t see another young player run out of town for not being up to snuff with a Hall of Famer- Brian Greise comes to mind.  The Giants are making a bid for a repeat, and after a slow start, they beat up on the Rams pretty good.  Indy squeaked out a win to get themselves to .500.  Chicago had a good chance to take care of the Panthers and let it slip away.  C’mon Bears!  Buffalo made it two in a row by beating Jacksonville.  I’m afraid it might be a long year for Seattle; their window of opportunity may be closing for good as they lost their second in a row.  This time it was in overtime to the Niners.  Other winners were Tampa, New England and Arizona who jumped all over Miami.  A disappointed Chargers team needs to look ahead and put the bad “call” behind them.  They still have plenty of time to put this season back together.  Unfortunately, I can’t say the same for the Browns.  They should start practicing their short game for the off-season.
