Randy Moss Signs Three Year Deal With Patriots

Randy Moss is returning to the New England Patriots.

The defending AFC champions re-signed the record-breaking receiver on Monday to a three-year deal worth $27 million, his agent said. The signing was confirmed by the team shortly after Moss posted a message to fans on his Web site.

"I want to take time out to thank all of the fans for their support and for wishing me well in my return to New England," therealrandymoss.com quotes him as saying. "I'm ready to get back. We have some unfinished business to take care of."

Moss' agent, Tim DiPiero, said the deal included guarantees of $15 million, including a $12 million signing bonus to the receiver who set an NFL record with 23 touchdown catches and helped the Patriots reach the Super Bowl in his first season with the team.

"Randy was serious about wanting to stay," DiPiero wrote in an e-mail. "Because of Randy's record-breaking year, the interest in him was very high. Randy took less than he could have to rejoin his teammates."

Pairing Moss with NFL MVP Tom Brady, who broke the league record with 50 touchdown passes, the Patriots breezed through the regular season with a perfect 16-0 record. They improved to an unprecedented 18-0 before blowing a chance at the league's longest unbeaten season with a 17-14 Super Bowl loss to the New York Giants.

"What Randy did for our team last year was outstanding," Patriots coach Bill Belichick said in a statement. "He is one of our most consistent, competitive and team-oriented players and it is undoubtedly a relationship we are excited to continue."

Moss, 31, has caught 774 passes for 12,193 yards in a 10-year career, and his 124 career receiving touchdowns are fourth in NFL history.

A four-time All-Pro, Moss took a pay cut to get out of Oakland and come to New England last April in exchange for a fourth-round draft pick. In addition to his 23 touchdowns, he caught 98 passes for 1,493 yards and largely avoided the type of turmoil that characterized his previous NFL stops.

During seven years with Minnesota, where he made five Pro Bowls, he was fined $10,000 for pretending to pull down his pants and moon the Green Bay crowd during a Vikings playoff win, and drew criticism for leaving the field with 2 seconds left in a loss to Washington.

He also bumped a traffic control officer with his car in 2002, verbally abused corporate sponsors on a team bus in 2001 and squirted an official with a water bottle in 1999.

In Oakland, he openly campaigned to be traded to a winning team. With the Patriots, he avoided controversy until the playoffs, when a woman sought a restraining order against him, claiming that he committed "battery causing serious injury."

Moss denied the allegation and said the woman was trying to get money from him.

Also Monday, the Patriots signed free agent receiver Sam Aiken.

The 27-year-old has played five seasons with the Buffalo Bills with 19 career receptions for 250 yards and 61 career special teams tackles.

Super Bowl XLII: Giants Vs Patriots

Congratulations to the New York Giants and the New England Patriots, who both earned the right to go to Glendale,Arizona to play in Super Bowl XLII. The New York Giants earned the right to represent the NFC in the Super Bowl with a thrilling 23-20 Overtime victory over the Green Bay Packers. The New England Patriots earned the right to represent the AFC in the Super Bowl with a 38-34 victory over the San Diego Chargers. In Week 17, these two teams met with the Patriots completing their perfect regular season, overcoming a twelve point defecit to win 38-35.

Key Players on both sides of the ball:
NEW ENGLAND O: Tom Brady, Patriots QB: Tom Brady already has three Super Bowl Rings, and is in unprecedented territory. With a win on Sunday, he will join Joe Montana and Terry Bradshaw as the only quarterbacks with four Super Bowl Rings. Tom Brady has the chance to have four Super Bowl Rings at the age of thirty, which is unheard of in NFL History!

Tom has been well so far in the postseason, playing smart, being patient, not turning the ball over often, and putting the ball in the hands of his playmakers, Laurence Mauroney, Wes Welker and Randy Moss. Brady also has been bailed out when he turns the ball over (A Rarity) by this great New England defense.

Tom Brady will play smart, be patient, not turn the ball over, and go deep for his playmakers. Tom Brady has so many weapons, You cannot stop them all!

NEW ENGLAND D: Tedy Bruschi, Patriots LB: Bruschi is, no doubt the heart of the Patriots D. The Patriots D revolves around him and Rodney Harrison.

NEW YORK O: Eli Manning, Giants QB: Eli’s Brother, Peyton, won last year’s Super Bowl. Now the Pressure is on Eli to do the same. Eli has been making smart decisions and taking advantage of what the defense gives him. That’s why the Giants have won nine road games in a row and have won all of their playoff games, which were on the road. Eli will have to keep this formula working if the G-Men are to pull the upset.

NEW YORK D: Giants Front Four, : New York DE: The Giants Front Four will have to get pressure on Tom Brady, forcing him to throw the ball before he wants to. Easier said than done.


Coaches: Bill Bellichick already has his name on three Lombardi Trophies, although the circumstances about how he won them are now in question. Whether the wondering is fair or not, the fact that the Patriots are 18-0 in this era of the NFL, with Free Agency and the Salary Cap, Is Absolutely Incredible.

The Last time Tom Coughlin led the G-Men to the Playoffs Wild Card Weekend Last Season, The Eagles knocked them out with a last-second Field Goal. Now, The Giants have the last laugh, as they are where the Eagles were last time the Patriots were in the Super Bowl.


Special Teams: If the offense and defense are neutralized, Special Teams is going to be how the Super Bowl will be won. Will the Giants Special Teams squad be able to contain the Patriots speedster, Ellis Hobbs? Will the Patriots be able to score points when they need it most? Or will they have to settle for field goals from the Adequate Stephen Gostowski, who is a fine replacement for Adam Vinateiri, who already has three Super Bowl Rings, he got those with the Patriots?

I can't wait for the Super Bowl. I Watch The World Series and the NBA Finals, but the only Sporting Event I Record every season is The Super Bowl. This will be my seventh year recording the Super Bowl. The first Super Bowl I Recorded was Super Bowl XXXVI, when the New England Patriots pulled off the biggest upset since Super Bowl III.

Eli Manning has had the clock ticking for his chance at a ring since Peyton got his chance at a ring last season. Tom Brady already has plenty of Super Bowl Rings on his hand, with a fourth on the way with a win Sunday

Can The Giants win the Super Bowl? Absolutely they can. When The Monday after the Championship Games were over, I thought that if the Giants won, it would be an even bigger upset than the Jets beating the Colts in Super Bowl III. Now, I realize this won’t be the biggest upset since Super Bowl III. It Won’t even be the biggest upset since Super Bowl XXVI. There are a lot of people out there underestimating the G-Men.


Knowing the Super Bowl, anything is possible, and that is why everybody loves to watch it, even if they watch just for the commercials.



Prediction: Both Eli Manning and Tom Brady will go deep to their playmakers early and often. This would have been impossible last Super Bowl due to the rain, but with a Retractable Roof Stadium, there will be no rain in this Super Bowl forecast. The Patriots Front Four will have to stop Brandon Jacobs and Ahmad Bradshaw. The Patriots Secondary will have to contain the 6'5 Plaxico Buriss. Ditto with The Giants defense having to contain Wes Welker and Randy Moss while also getting Pressure on Tom Brady. Once Again, easier said than done.

One Final Thing: What Is The Place in History for this Patriots Team if they win the Super Bowl? They will be the greatest Champs of all time.

What If They Lose The Super Bowl? They Will Be The Greatest Chumps of all time.

My Pick Is:
NEW ENGLAND OVER NEW YORK

Houston At Cleveland 1:00 PM EST
Both of these teams are coming off upset victories. Mario Williams won this version of the debate of "Who Really Should have gone Number One in the 2005 draft?" with his performance as the Texans beat The Saints. Cleveland is coming off an unbelievable and improbable win against the Ravens in which Phil dawson's Game tying 51 Yard Field Goal bounced off the left upright, then hit off the center crossbar, before coming to rest on the field. The Ravens walked off the field. They thought they won the game. A conference with the officials and the call was overturned.
Don't Believe Me? Watch The Video!

Cleveland went on to win 33-30 in Overtime.

Both of these teams have Moentum. Cleveland has more. Obviously. When An Improbable like that happens, many Sports fans look to the heavens. I'll go with Cleveland Over Houston, but I don't think we will ever see a kick like that ever again.
CLEVELAND OVER HOUSTON

Minnessota At New York Giants 1:00 PM EST
If Adrian Peterson starts, Minnesota's chances to win improve dramatically. The Vikings beat a bad Raiders team, and Chester Taylor had almost 200 yards rushing.The Giants beat the Lions last week, starting their two game losing streak. I'll go with New York over Minnesota.
NEW YORK GIANTS OVER MINNESOTA

New Orleans At Carolina 1:00 PM EST

This is a big NFC West Rivalry. If Arizona beats the 49ers, they keep their Playoff Hopes Alive. Arizona wins.
ARIZONA OVER SAN FRANCISCO

Denver At Chicago 4:15 PM EST
This is a meaningless game. I said Chicago had to win last week against the Seahawks to keep hope alive. They didn't win. The Bears and Broncos are both out of the playoffs. I'll pick Chicago because they're at home.
CHICAGO OVER DENVER

Baltimore At San Diego 4:15 PM EST
Nothing has gone right for the Ravens this season. They will not make the playoffs this season. San Diego will also be on the outside looking in. I'm going to hype up the match like this: Last Year, these two teams were expected to meet up in the Playoffs.

TAMPA BAY OVER ARIZONA

Carolina At Tennesee 1:00 PM EST
Both of these teams have players injured at the Quarterback Spot. If David Carr cannot start for The Panthers, Vinny Testaverde's feel good story will continue for another week. If Vince Young is healthy for this game, Tennesee's Offensive Funk is over.
TENNESEE OVER CAROLINA

CINCINNATTI AT BUFFALLO 1:00 PM EST
The Buffalo Bills won last week as they defeated the New York Jets. Cincinnatti lost to the Pittsburgh Steelers last week. Buffalo has a two headed monster at Quarterback named Trent Losman, A Mixture of J.P. Losman and Trent Edwards. Okay, I'm kidding on that one. But my point is that it doesn't matter which one of these two aren't playing, the other steps up and plays just as well. The Bengals have easily been the most inconsistent team in the NFL. The Bills will win this game.
BUFFALO OVER CINCINNATTI

DENVER AT DETROIT 1:00 PM EST
Denver will win this game. I have not been sold on the Lions all season, but I also have not been sold on the Broncos. It's a toss up. I'll go with the Lions because they're at home.

If Green Bay cannot stop Larry Johnson, the Packers are in trouble. I'll go with the Chiefs because of Larry Johnson.
KANSAS CITY OVER GREEN BAY

This is a great matchup at the running back spot. Maurice Jones-Drew versus Reggie Bush. I'll go with The Saints because they are at home.
MEW ORLEANS OVER JACKSONVILLE

SAN DIEGO AT MINNESOTA 1:00 PM EST
The Present at the running back spot, LaDanian Tomlinson, taking on the future of the Running Back Spot, Adrian Peterson. Minnesota has a quarterback controversy now. Kelly Holcomb has surpassed Tavaris Jackson as the Starting Quarterback. I'll go with San Diego to win this game.
SAN DIEGO OVER MINNESOTA

SAN FRANCISCO AT ATLANTA 1:00 PM EST
San Francisco, even without Alex Smith under center, will win this game, as Atlanta is simply not good enough to beat them.
SAN FRANCISCO OVER ATLANTA

WASHINGTON OVER NEW YORK JETS

Cleveland is coming off a win against the Hapless Rams. The Primetime game nobody will be watching. I'll go with Seattle because of Shaun Alexander and Matt Hasselbeck.
SEATTLE OVER CLEVELAND

HOUSTON AT OAKLAND 4:05 PM EST
This game alone has caused many people to order NFL Sunday Ticket, as the state of California and Some of Texas will be watching this loathsome contest. I'll go with Oakland only because Matt Schaub is not starting for the Texans in this game.
OAKLAND OVER HOUSTON

NEW ENGLAND AT INDIANAPOLIS 4:15 PM EST THE GAME OF THE WEEK AND GAME OF THE YEAR, UNTIL THE SUPER BOWL.
Whenever Tom Brady's Patriots meet up against Peyton Manning's Colts, fieworks are going to fly. The Colts won both of their regular season matchups in the regular season against The Colts last season. The Patriots had a 17 point lead at the end of the first Half of last season's AFC Championship Game until Peyton Manning and his Colts stormed back to finally take the lead on a one yard Touchdown Run by Joseph Addai with one minute remaining. The Patriots had to go eighty yards in just about one minute, but Merlin Jackson intercepted Tom Brady and The Indianapolis Colts won the right to go to the Super Bowl, where they defeated the Chicago Bears 29-17.

Fast Forward to the offseason.The Patriots, already great, became greater with the addition of Randy Moss and Wes Welker on Offense and Adalius Thomas on Defense. The 8-0 Patriots are meeting up against the 7-0 Colts. I think the winner of this game will win Super Bowl XLII.

The Patriots have scored at least 30 points in every game this season. The Patriots have won every game by at least 17 points this season. The Colts are getting Marvin Harrison back for this game, but they have not needed him. It doesn't matter who The Colta re missing, whether it's Marvin Harrison, or Joseph Addai, The Colts have plugged up the holes, and they have found a way to win. The Colts will have to score early and often, and they will have to protect against the blitz, because the Patriots blitz early and often. Everyone knows that any quarterback gets nervous when there are two are three guys ready to pounce on them. Peyton will have to stick with the short passing game.

This is the game of the year until the Super Bowl. I am picking The Patriots to win this game.
NEW ENGLAND OVER INDIANAPOLIS

SUNDAY NIGHT FOOTBALL
Dallas At Philladelphia 7:15 PM EST
If It Wasn't for Indianapolis versus New England, this would be the game of the week. Dallas versus Philladelphia is always a big NFC East Matchup, and it is no exception here. This is Tony Romo's first game since signing that six year, $60 Million extension. I go with the Cowboys because they are the best team in the NFC.
DALLAS OVER PHILLADELPHIA

MONDAY NIGHT FOOTBALL
Baltimore at Pittsburgh 8:30 PM EST
This is always a big AFC North Rivalry, and it is no exception here. Baltimore at times has looked great. Other times, they have looked mediocre. Other times, they have looked awful. Inconsistency is what will come back to hurt The Ravens. Pittsburgh wins this game.
PIITSBURGH OVER BALTIMORE

Enjoy Your Sunday! watch the games!

To All NBA Fans, Your Highlights and Top 10 are on the post below!

NFL Week Eight Preview

The New Wembley Stadium normally is the host of Soccer Games, but on Sunday, it will play host to the Dolphins and the Giants. In the future, Wembley Stadium may play host to a Super Bowl.

It is time for the NFL Midterm Exam. Get your pencils ready. Make sure they are sharpened. It is time for the Midterm.

Cleveland vs. St. Louis 1:00 PM EST
Cleveland is coming off a bye. Two weeks ago, The Browns lost to the Patriots. The Rams are coming off a loss, as they have not won a game all season. St. Louis and Miami are both in the running to go 0-16, which has never happened in the history of the NFL. I expect both Miami and St. Louis to lose this week, therfore keeping alive their chances to go completely winless.
BROWNS OVER RAMS

Detroit At Chicago 1:00 PM EST
This is Chicago's first meeting with detroit since Detroit spoiled the debut of Brian Griese as Quarterback of the Bears, as the Lions scored an NFL Recod 35 points in the fourth Quarter to beat the Bears. Brian Griese led the Bears on a game winning 95 yard drive last week as the Bears defeated the Philladelphia Eagles. The Lions are coming off a victory over the Buccaneers. I pick Chicago to win because they are at home. The defense will need to step up and they have to contain Calvin Johnson. If they can do that, they win this game.
CHICAGO OVER DETROIT

Indianapolis at Carolina 1:00 PM EST
Vinny Testaverde gets the call to quarterback the Panthers again this week. Indianapolis is hoping to remain undefeated so they can face the Patriots with a 8-0 record. This game against Carolina should be a good game. I expect Indianapolis to win, but if they start going through the mostions, they will lose this game.
INDIANAPOLIS OVER CAROLINA

New York Giants vs Miami Dolphins (THE GAME OF THE WEEK)
This game will be played at the beautiful New Wembley Stadium in London, England. NFL Commisioner Roger Goodell has expressed the idea of giving London a Super Bowl, which I am for, if they do it very carefully. Football is America's Game. America is losing it's own game, but if it gets some more fans, it will all be worth it. However, if America says to England "You're gonna watch NFL Football and you're gonna love it more than English Football", then their whole strategy will backfire. How will England react to America getting a Super Bowl? They will probably react the much differently than the way America reacted to the news that David Beckham was coming to America to play Soccer in Major League Soccer for the Los Angeles Galaxy. England and Europe has never really cared about NFL Football. Maybe if we give them a Super Bowl or a matchup with two really good teams playing each other, maybe that will change. The NFL Europa League shut down due to lack of talent. If England got the Colts and the Patriots to play each other in England, that would draw much more fanfare than one winless team playing a slightly better team. The NFL is willing to do anything to get some new fans, so let's see two good teams play each other in London.

Back to the actual game, New York's defense is performing better than I think anyone could have expected. I think Miami's team is much worse than anyone could have expected, and the fact they are talking about Ricky Williams yet again shows how badly the Dolphins are this season. I expect the New York Giants to win this game because of their defense.
NEW YORK GIANTS OVER MIAMI

Oakland at Tennesee 1:00 PM EST
Rob Bironas tied an NFL Record in the first half of the game by making five field goals. He made three more, including the game winner, to set a new NFL Record with Eight field goals in a game. I expect Tennesee to win, whether or not Vince Young is healthy. Kerry Collins has always been a good veteran backup, and he proved that against Houston as he did just enough to give Tennesee the victory.
TENNESEE OVER OAKLAND

Philladelphia at Minnesota 1:00 PM EST
This game features two excellent running backs. Brian Westbrook versus Adrian Peterson for the Vikings. Philladelphia has underperformed so badly this season. Donovan McNabb has not helped himself get off the hot seat, as he has had another mediocre season. Hopefully, he is able to stay healthy for the whole season, otherwise that will be the final straw that breaks the camel's back. I expect the Eagles to win this game. Next Sunday Night, the Eagles play the Dallas Cowboys, who are off this week.
PHILLY OVER MINNESOTA

LATE GAMES

Cincinnati at Pittsburgh 4:05 PM EST
This is always a big AFC North battle. Pittsburgh is coming off a last second defeat to the Denver Broncos. cincinnatti is coming off a victory over the Jets.Chad Pennington faces Carson Palmer, two good quarterbacks going at it. Pittsburgh wins this game because of defese.
PITTSBURGH OVER CINCINNATTI

BUFFALO AT NEW YORK JETS 4:05 PM EST
Trent Edwards and J.P. Losman are currently slugging it out for the Starting Quarterback job in Buffallo. If Trent Edwards can hold continue performing well, he will make J.P. Losman pack his bags to become the starting quarterback somewhere else. If thomas Jones and Marshawn Lynch both find daylight, the runing game will be how those teams win the game.
NEW YORK JETS OVER BUFFALO

Houston at San Diego 4:15 PM EST
This game will still go on despite the raging wildfires in California. The Chargers practiced in Arizona this week while the league was deciding what to do with this game. I think San Diego will win this game. Their gearts are heavy watching those wildfires, and they are going to want to perform well in front of their fans, many of which are hurting with them.
SAN DIEGO OVER HOUSTON

Jacksonville At Tampa Bay 4:15 PM EST
Jacksonville has a major question mark as to who will be their quarterback as David Gerrard is injured. Quinn Gray may end up starting for the Jaguars this week. If jacksonville can keep running the ball as well as they did two weeks ago against Houston, they will win the game. Jeff Garcia has revitalized the Bucs. I go with Tampa Bay because they are not dealing with the injury bug, but if jacksonville can continue running the ball well, they will win this game.
TAMPA BAY OVER JACKSONVILLE

New Orleans at San Francisco 4:15 PM EST
Alex Smith may be back quarterbacking the 49ers this week. If he does, he will provide the 49ers with leadership they have been so badly missing. Frank Gore, the prolific 49ers running back, called out his team this week for not trusting their offensive coordinator. this game really could go either way. I pick the Saints because of Drew Brees and Reggie Bush. If those two have good numbers, the Saints will win the game.
NEW ORLEANS OVER SAN FRANCISCO

Washington At New England 4:15 PM EST
New England will win this game. They are too much on fire to lose this game. Tom Brady set a new career high in Touchdown Passes against the Dolphins last week with six touchdown passes. New England will use this game as target Practice for when they play the Colts next Sunday.
NEW ENGLAND OVER WASHINGTON

SUNDAY NIGHT

Since there is no Sunday Night Football this week due to Game Four of the World Series taking place that night, I've decided to use this space to blog about the World Series to this point. The series shifts to Colorado Saturday and Sunday. The Colorado Rockies needs a win Saturday Night to keep hope alive to win the World Series. On Saturday Night, Josh Fogg opposes Daisuke Mastuzaka. Jon Lester, the best individual story in baseball this season, will be opposed by Aaron Cook for the Rockies. David Ortiz will play first base due to there being no Designated Hitter in the National League. I feel like picking a winner to this game. I expect Colorado to win one of these two games, but I still expect the final result of the 2007 World Series to be:
BOSTON OVER COLORADO

Monday Night Football

Packers vs. Broncos 8:30 PM EST
While I am on the subject of the World Series, if Colorado is able to win one of the games on Saturday or Sunday, Game Five of the World Series will be at Coors Field in Denver. Less than a mile away in Invesco Field at Mile High Stadium, the home of the Denver Broncos. I expect Boston to wrap up Game Five of the World Series on Monday Night (Josh Beckett is on the mound for the Red Sox, opposed by Jeff Framcis.) I also expect Green Bay to beat Denver on Monday Night Football.
GREEN BAY OVER DENVER

If you studied and did your homework, you passed the midterm! Congratulations! Enjoy Your Sunday!

Week Six NFL Preview

Tom Brady leads the undefeated New England Patriots into Dallas to take on the undefeated Cowboys.

Week Six of the NFL Season is about to get under way. Here's a preview of every game with analysis and a pick of the winner.

UPDATE: THIS BLOG POST WAS UPDATED MONDAY, OCTOBER 15TH, WITH ALL THE SUNDAY SCORES.

EARLY GAMES

CINCINNATI AT KANSAS CITY 1:00 PM EST
Cincinnati is coming off their bye week. They lost to the Patriots two weeks ago on Monday Night Football. Kansas City is coming off a loss to Jacksonville. Kansas City has just not looked good this season. They are a shell of themselves both offensively and defensively. Kansas City made the smart move in getting rid of Trent Green, but Damon Huard has struggled for the Chiefs. The Chiefs may bring in Brodie Croyle near the end of the season if they fall out of playoff contention. Cincinnati is also falling apart. Carson Palmer and Chad Johnson were both yelling at each other during the Monday Night game after Johnson quit on a route he was supposed to run. This really is a toss up. I'll go with Kansas City because they are at home. If Rudi Johnson is not back for the Bengals for this game, that should wrap up the victory for the Chiefs.
KANSAS CITY OVER CINCINNATI

KANSAS CITY DEFEATS CICNINNATI 27-20.

HOUSTON AT JACKSONVILLE 1:00 PM EST
This is always a big AFC South matchup. This matchup for Houston isn't quite as big as Indy vs Houston, but it's up there on it's own. Fred Taylor may miss the Houston game. Travis Johnson should have been fined for his comments about Trent Green last week, but he apologized for his comments later and that may be why he wasn't fined. David Garrard has really good for Jacksonville. This is another toss up. If Houston has to depend on Kris Brown to kick five field goals for them this week, Houston will be in trouble. I go with Houston, but only if they start scoring touchdowns when they get in the red zone.
HOUSTON OVER JACKSONVILLE

JACKSONVILLE DEFFEATS HOUSTON 37-17.

MIAMI AT CLEVELAND 1:00 PM EST
Miami is winless this season. The Browns are coming off a loss to the Patriots last week. Cleveland will win this game they are at home, and because Miami has just not been able to get anything going right for them this season.
CLEVELAND OVER MIAMI

CLEVELAND DEFEATS MIAMI 41-31.

MINNESOTA AT CHICAGO 1:00 PM EST
Chicago is coming off a last minute victory over the Packers on Sunday Night Football. Minnesota is coming off a bye week. Two weeks ago, the Vikings secondary watched helplessly as Brett Favre became the all time leader in touchdown passes and pass attempts. Minnesota vs Chicago is always a big NFC North Rivalry, no matter where they are in the standings. Ironically, Chicago and Minnesota rank second to last and dead last, respectively, in season record. Chicago may have saved their season with their victory over Green Bay. Chicago will keep the good times as they will beat Minnesota.
CHICAGO OVER MINNESOTA

MINNESOTA DEFEATS CHICAGO 34-31.

PHILADELPHIA AT NEW YORK JETS 1:00 PM EST
Two weeks ago, at The Meadowlands, The Philadelphia Eagles were destroyed by the Sack Machine of the rabid New York Giants defense. Michael Strahan became the all time sack leader in Giants History, passing Lawrence Taylor. Philadelphia has not played a game since then, as they are coming off a bye week.The New York Jets are coming off a victory against their rival New York Giants Last Sunday. This game really could go either way. If Donovan McNabb has a good game, Philly wins this game. Chad Pennington has struggled this season as the Jets Quarterback, and he may soon be replaced by Kellen Clemens if he keeps struggling. I go with the Eagles because the Jets have just not looked that good this season.
PHILLY OVER NEW YORK JETS

PHILLY DEFEATS NEW YORK JETS 16-9.

ST LOUIS AT BALTIMORE 1:00 PM EST
The Ravens will win against the winless St Louis Rams. The Rams are just one big train wreck right now, and they are not able to stop the bleeding. Baltimore wins.
BALTIMORE OVER ST LOUIS

BALTIMORE DEFEATS ST. LOUIS 22-3.

TENNESSEE AT TAMPA BAY 1:00 PM EST
Tampa Bay is coming off a loss to the Colts. Tennessee is coming off a win against Atlanta. Vince Young struggled in last weeks game against Atlanta, but the defense bailed him out, as they made the play of the game by returning an interception for a touchdown. Vince Young's struggles may continue this week, and the defense will have to be able to bail him out. I go with Tennessee because their defense will bail Vince Young out if he gets into trouble.
TENNESSEE OVER TAMPA BAY

TAMPA BAY DEFEATS TENNESEE 13-10.

WASHINGTON AT GREEN BAY 1:00 PM EST
Washington is coming off a win over Detroit. Green Bay is coming off a loss to their rival Chicago. This is another toss up game. I go with Washington because they have the Hall Of Fame Coach in Joe Gibbs, and Jason Campbell has really looked like a star under center under Washington.
WASHINGTON OVER GREEN BAY

WASHINGTON DEFEATS GREEN BAY 17-14.

LATE GAMES
CAROLINA AT ARIZONA 4:15 PM EST
If David Carr does not start this game, this becomes the battle of the Old-Timers. The forty-four year old Vinny Tstaverde taking on thirty-six year old Kurt Warner. The Panthers are coming off a victory over the New Orleans Saints. The Cardinals are coming over the Rams. Kurt Warner will remain the starter for the rest of the season after Matt Leinart broke his collarbone in the game last week. This is another toss up. I'll go with Arizona. Arizona looked pretty good against Pittsburgh, and they may look good against the inconsistent Panthers. This game will be a good Old-Timers Quarterback duel if Testaverde starts.
ARIZONA OVER CAROLINA

NEW ENGLAND AT DALLAS 4:15 PM EST The Game Of The Week
Tom Brady leads the undefeated New England Patriots into Dallas to take on the undefeated Dallas Cowboys. This is one of the games I was looking forward when the schedule was first announced. The Patriots are coming off a victory over Cleveland. The Cowboys are coming off an amazing last second victory over the Buffalo Bills on Monday Night Football. What did the Dallas game teach me about America's Team? Here's some things I saw about this game.

This Cowboy Team is a very resilient, refusing to give up.
This Cowboys team could have easily caved in when Tony Romo's first two interceptions were returned for touchdowns, but they didn't. They could have given up when Romo threw his fifth interception and fumbled the ball in the fourth quarter, but they didn't. This Cowboy team refused to give up. Terrell Owens was the sidelines encouraging Tony Romo, telling to not give up. Romo did not give up and this team did not give up, even when it seemed that Murphy's Law was in full effect. Everything that could go wrong for the Cowboys seemingly did, but this Cowboy team refused to give up and that's why they won the game.

We May be seeing a new Terrell Owens, at least for one week.
As I mentioned above, Terrell Owens remained positive throughout the whole game, refusing to give up. Terrell Owens did something he has never done before, he skipped a press conference and left for the reporters saying he didn't want to talk about the game, telling the reporters in the note to "Getcha Popcorn Ready." Terrell Owens is remaining positive about his team and his quarterback, and hopefully he does well on the field as well.

Terrell Owens will be going up against Rodney Harrison, the best safety in the NFL. I cannot wait for the New England-Dallas Game. To all of you who are saying "Dallas has no chance to win this game" remember that Dallas knocked off an undefeated team last season at Texas Stadium. The Cowboys defeated the Indianapolis Colts last season. I'm gonna be honest, I did not pick Dallas to win that game last year, but they did. I'm also not picking Dallas to win this Sunday, but they are good enough to use all of the lessons from the Buffalo game to pull the upset.
NEW ENGLAND OVER DALLAS

NEW ENGLAND DEFEATS DALLAS 48-27.

OAKLAND AT SAN DIEGO 4:15 PM EST
California fans are really mad that they will not be able to see the New England-Dallas game. Instead they will watch two mediocre teams go at it. San Diego is coming off a beatdown of the Denver Broncos. Oakland is coming off a bye week. Two weeks ago, Daunte Culpepper was a one man show for the Raiders as he passed for two two touchdowns and ran for three more as Oakland defeated the winless Miami Dolphins. I'll go with San Diego for this game, Daunte Culpepper will not have a week like that again.

Enjoy the games on Sunday! There is one Baseball Game on Sunday Night. Game Three of the National League Championship Series, Diamondbacks vs Rockies, is on. Livan Hernandez pitches for the Diamondbacks, who trail 0-2 in this series. Josh Fogg pitches for the Rockies, who are at home in this game. I'll be watching this game instead of the Sunday Night Football Game. I'll pick a winner to this game too, just because I want to.
