There were some really good games and some that were really one sided. The Packer game was a good close game that I thought was interesting to watch. It was a strong defensive game, the type I like. Plus the Packers won, which always makes it a good game. The Bears Vs Chargers game started off good, but turned bad in the second half when San Diego started running off with the game. I think it was due to the fact that the offense could not hold onto the ball and that the defense was getting worn down being hammered on by LT and Gates. However Grossman performed almost exactly how I thought he would against the Chargers. Now Bear fans take solace in this; itÂ’s only week one and the Chargers are a tough team.
What is up with the running backs this week? Other than Addai in Indianapolis, most of them put up dismal yardage. If they did put up over a hundred yards, they didnÂ’t score. ItÂ’s almost as if every team in the NFL decided to forgo the ground game and stick to the air. Is it because defenses are stacking against the ground? Maybe they are preparing for an onslaught of rushing all season and thatÂ’s how every team except New Orleans built their defense.
Speaking of sticking to the air, what the hell is up with all the QBÂ’s that got 4 or more touchdowns in one game? Brady, Romo, Rothlesberger, Eli and Peyton Manning. ThatÂ’s not even including the four QBs that are going to be playing tonight! Potentially there is a chance of adding a couple more names to that list. Usually if you get a QB that scores that many touch downs, itÂ’s only one maybe two a week. It is NOT five or more that sling the pigskin for the touchdowns.
IÂ’m wondering what is going to happen with the obviously horribly missed off sides against the Bears that wasnÂ’t called. It was clear that the BearÂ’s defensive tackle, Tommie Harris was off sides and possibly encroachment when he forced the goal line fumble of Philip Rivers. But none of the officials called it.
We have two more games tonight and then itÂ’s on to week two.

The Green Bay/Philly game was simply a contest to see who sucked worse. Philly won. I will give props to Brett Favre for saving some seriously busted plays though.

So yes, the Bears D did pound LT, but when you hit two hammers together sooner or later one is going to prove the weaker and start to give.
And the Packers might have sucked, but at least they have a Win right now. We'll see how long that streak lasts.
