Bengals beat a hopeless KC.

Dalton to Green on fire.

Next 4 games are against teams with losing records.

I have a bad feeling :help

The Chiefs are the worst team in the NFL easily....getting smashed more often than not.

I didn't rate the Bengals a playoff team this season...but the next 4 will sum up whether that will happen imo.
You should beat the Raiders both times, Cowboys is a 50-50 then the Eagles are playing embarrassing...which should be a win.
Could be 8-6.....but this is Cincinnati we are talking about.
 
Re: NFL 2012-13

9ers taking the Bears to the cleaners....20-0 half time....dominating all areas really, both starting QB's not playing due to concussion in the previous games.
But Kaepernick is very capable and had a great first half and Campbell has been ordinary for the Bears....one of the worst QB games I've ever seen.
Only 4-8 completions, been sacked 3 times and only 21 yards passing compared to Kaepernick 184.

You didn't watch the Bumblebee Steelers lose at home to those Cravens with our stand-in QB Leftwich then. ;D

And missed some wide open targets. Truly terrible.

How was the Patriots 2nd qtr versus the Jets.

35 points, unbelievable, even it though it was only the Jets.

The Pats had 4 touchdowns in 6 minutes.....3 of which came in under a minute :eek:

The Pats are contenders though while the Jets.....well a lot of pressure is on the coach to keep his job next season.

NY Giants carving up Packers Sunday Night Footy.

Packers missing a few names though.

I expected a closer game.

Looks like the Steelers season is over with Ben out. Better to rest him and start looking into drafting a younger back-up QB as Leftwich and Batch are old and useless.

Great to see the Notre Dame shoot from nowhere to no.1 in the NCAA. What a coincidence that (2)Alabama play (3)Georgia next week and the winner meets the Fighting Irish in the BCS championship title game.

And I think either 1 of those teams will beat the Fighting Irish.

The Fighting Irish have had some luck to remain undefeated.

They probably shocked some teams who unexpected them to be this good. They did beat four top 25 teams but their draw did look a bit easy. Either way, the head coach Brian Kelly has done a great job in reviving this old uni back to number 1, and I reckon Alabama would be the best to beat them coz that Crimson Tide are a tough lot.

2 very very good QB's by the looks of it.

Will Smith change clubs, if he doesn't get the 1 spot back
Click to expand...

It's a good problem to have for the 49ers.
I like Kaepernick running the show but he just needs to play a bad game the Smith is back in imo,
Smith is the safe option but Kaepernick is more athletic he can carry the ball better than Smith and makes the offense more dynamic.
I still expect to see Smith back at some stage.
It's the defense that makes this team so good....Brees was sacked 5 times.

9ers have St. Louis, Miami, New England, Seattle and Arizona....I expect at least a 4-1 run.
Massive game against the Pats...look forward to that one. Imo the Superbowl championship is out of 9ers, Pats and Texans.

I can't bring myself to rate the Texans

They did beat the Ravens and Bears....but other than that haven't really beat anyone of quality,
that's how I feel about the Falcons....I don't rate them either.

I read an article on NFL.com
"With Colin Kaepernick at quarterback, a punishing commitment to the run and the most physical defense in the NFL, the San Francisco 49ers are head-and-shoulders above the rest of the league. Yes, they're the best team in the NFL, and just seem to be getting better."

This kind of pump up makes me nervous.

The Steelers went into this season with a few challenges, emanating from going through a rebuild.
It was amazing to see them a couple of weeks ago 6-3.
The injury to Big Ben has been more then the team could bear, with them losing the last two games.

Each of the last two to three seasons have been affected by injuries to Roethlisberger.
Certainly time to draft a junior replacement.

Exactly right Phanto and it's not just the loss of Ben but also Polamalu still injured since last season along with Mendenhall. I think Mike Tomlin's position is in a bit of trouble with some calling for him to be sacked due to being too tactless during games (a bit like Dimma at times). I like Tomlin but there are many parts of our offensive game where we just look too static and one-dimensional which puts bigger pressure on Ben. Even that old Steel Curtain looks weak at times. It's time to tank. ;D
