The Broncos lost to the Redskins and the Chargers beat the Eagles... so next week is the game SD can take the lead. Even though that is all that is really on my mind right now this post is really about every game of the week, so let's start with the 1:00 games.
Denver at Washington
My Score Prediction- 34-13 Denver
Final Score- 27-17 Washington
So early in the game Denver goes all Brandon Marshall on the Redskins, and after that it was over, Denver lost to the Redskins... I mean, at first I thought the Ravens game just might have been a bad game. Then the Steelers game was just a loss to a great team, but Washington?!? San Diego better take advantage of them next week.
Grades
Washington- (B-) Hey they won, and they won by more than one score. They didn't let the Marshall play get their hopes down.
Denver- (D-) Wow, they played terrible, against Washington. The only thing keeping them from an F is the fact that Marshall Played like a beast. Besides that, their next best receiver was Scheffler with 29 yards.
Falcons at Panthers
My Score Prediction- 30-20 Falcons
Final Score- 28-19 Panthers
This wasn't completely surprising, I guess the Panthers took what they did last week and played 4 quarters of football against a team not as good as the Saints. However I don't expect the Falcons to go downhill from here, they are still dangerous.
Grades
Panthers- (A-) Steve Smith started to look like Steve Smith again with 2 TDs. Still would like to see more yardage out of him. Meanwhile the duo of Stewart and Williams continued to produce yards. The defense played pretty good.
Falcons (D+) They didn't show up, but as I said before, I think the Falcons will forget about this and move on. Plus they lost Turner to injury, but hopefully he is o.k.
Jaguars at Jets
My Score Prediction- 24-20 Jaguars
Final Score- 24-22 Jaguars
Wow, my guess was only 2 points off. It is sad to see Sanchez start to look like a Rookie after such a great start, but it continued today against the Jaguars as he threw 2 more INTs. I knew the Jets weren't for real, and I think now many others do too.
Jaguars- (B+) As usual, Jones-Drew tore up the defense. Though Garrard didn't put up monster numbers, he didn't throw any picks.
Jets- (C) They did keep the game close. But as I said earlier, Sanchez threw two picks and only 1 TD. The Jets are really falling behind in the Wild Card race.
Cincinnati at Pittsburgh
M Score Prediction- Bengals 24 Steelers 27
Final Score- Bengals 18 Steelers 12
The Bengals are for real now, though lately it has been their defense. Either way, they have been winning games against good teams and held a good Steelers offense to no TDs. This Bengals team is possibly on the road to a Super Bowl.
Grades
Bengals- (A-) Once again, the defense was unbelievable. I would like to see offense that was so good come back though. Also, what was the point of that fake extra point?
Steelers- (B-) They played a tough game, but couldn't get touchdowns when they needed them. They played good defense against a talented offense, but they couldn't use that as an advantage.
Minnesota at Detroit
My Score Prediction- 38-10
FInal Score- 27-10
This is exactly how the game should have turned out. It was simply the better team that won. Though I give Detroit's defense credit though, even though they let up a ton of yards, I expected more Vikings points. Still the Vikings completely outplayed the Lions.
Grades
Vikings- (A+) They did everything right, Favre had around 340 yards, Sidney Rice had a monstrous 200 yard game, and Peterson had a solid 130 yard game. The defense didn't disappoint either.
Lions- (F) They couldn't stop anyone and they barely produced on offense. This is exactly what the Lions are good at.
Miami at Tampa Bay
My Score Prediction- 26-23 Tampa Bay
Final Score- 25-23 Miami
This was probably the closest loss I have predicted all year. I really wanted to see Tampa Bay win, but even though they lost Josh Freemen still has a better winning percentage then Sanchez or Stafford.
Grades
Tampa Bay- (C+) They were a field goal away from their second win, but the season is pretty much over for them anyway.
Miami- (B-) They didn't play much better, but the Wildcat did once again tear up the defense. Now let's see how they do against Carolina.
New Orleans at Saint Louis
My Score Prediction- 41-9 Saints
Final Score- 28-23 Saints
Wow the Rams played good football for the first time since last year, and they still lost. Though it was a close game, the Saints remained undefeated, but is this just setting them up for a loss? I guess we will have to find out next week.
Grades
Saints- (B-) They played solid offense, but the defense really should have not let up 23 to the Rams.Rams- (C) They played possibly the best team in the NFL, maybe this could lead to some momentum.
Tennessee at Buffalo
My Score Prediction- 31-17 Tennessee
Final Score- 41-17 Tennessee
After starting 0-6 the Titans have won 3 straight. Though it hasn't been against great teams, it wasn't against terrible teams either. Until now, the Bills are just looking worse every week.
Grades
Tennessee- (A) Once again, Johnson looked great. Vince Young still didn't look great, but is still winning games.
Buffalo- (D) Well they started off ok, which is the only reason they don't have an F. Still, the Bills are far from a competitive team.
Kansas City at Oakland
My Score Prediction- 14-10
Final Score- 16-10
Well this is exactly what everyone expected, just a terrible game between terrible teams. Well the Chiefs still won, which didn't surprise many people.
Grades
Kansas City- (C+) The bright side is their defense played well. The dark side is it was against the Raiders, and they could only score 16 points.
Oakland- (D-) Just what you would expect out of Oakland, a pathetic attempt at playing offense, including a 67 yard performance out of Russell.
Arizona at Seattle
My Score Prediction- 27-20 Arizona
Final Score- 31-20 Arizona
Though it took some time, Arizona's offense looked great for a second week in a row. Warner had a great game with 340 yards and 2 TDs.
Grades
Arizona- (B+) It took a little time for them to get going, but as I usually say, it matters how you finish not how you start.
Seattle- (C) It's not like they played a bad game, but this wasn't a good game either. They played much better against the Lions, but then again doesn't everybody?
Cowboys at Packers
My Score Prediction- 31-21 Cowboys
Final Score- 17-7 Packers
Well, the Cowboys started looking like the Cowboys again, as did the Packers. With the wloss the NFC East is still up for grabs. I wonder now if the Packers can possibly turn the season around.
Grades
Packers- (A) They played great defense against a good offense, and their own offense got the job done.
Cowboys- (C-) They couldn;'t score for 3 quarters, and more importantly lost to a team that came off a loss to the Bucs.
I will have a full recap for the Chargers game tomorrow, so for now thanks for reading. If you want to write a blog post, just send me an email at Chargerized@gmail.com. Also add chargerized on twitter for updates.
