1. Which player is most responsible for the Falcons' newly founded relevancy: Matt Ryan, Roddy White, or Michael Turner?
Both Michael Turner and Matt Ryan are both equally responsible.. with out Ryan Turner doesn't exist and with out Turner Ryan doesn't exist. Turner is keeping defenses honest and Ryan is doing same as in defense have to play to stop both the run and the pass.
2. At the end of the season, how will Jason Campbell rank among the other QBs?
Top 10 easily. He had a bad week against the Rams..I doubt that will happen two times in a row.
3. Will this be the Pacman's last season in the NFL?
No and It shouldn't. He got in a fight with his bodyguard. Its not like he was at a club...or it was in public. It happened in a hotel bathroom there wasn't very many people present. Quite frankly, Jerry Jones should have taken action. I think if he had then Goodell would have stayed out of it.
4. Who is the most overrated RB so far this season?
LT. Bar none.
5. Who's to blame for the Bengals being so terrible: Marvin Lewis, Mike Brown, or the players?
Its a team..everyone's to blame from the front office down.
6. Of the four one-loss/undefeated teams (Titans, Steelers, Giants, and Bills), who is most likely to have the biggest fall from grace?
Steelers. I like Big Ben but sooner or later he's going to take another beating like he got from Philly.
7. Of the seven one-win/winless teams (Chiefs, Seahawks, Raiders, Rams, Texans, Lions, and Bengals), who is most likely to salvage their season and somehow sneak into the playoffs?
The Texans. They have everything..offense..dominating defensive line. I picked them to win this week.
8. Were the Patriots smart for sticking with Cassel, or should they have sought another starting QB?
They should have went after a decent backup. Garcia..hell I would go out on a limb and say Rex Grossman. Think of what Rex could do with an offensive line, and those great WR's. Something he hasn't had in NE. I think they should have maybe looked at Jon Beck, Colt Brennan, or Troy Smith. Brennan especially.
9. Speaking of the Patriots, does the loss of Tom Brady expose Belichick as a fraud?
No. He was exposed last year...nothing else left to be said.
10. Has Brett Favre been better so far this season than he was last season?
No. Then again its early. It's not like it was in Green Bay were he had known his receivers for a good chunk of years. Next year will be the tell tell sign.
11. Whose future looks brightest: Aaron Rodgers', JaMarcus Russell's, Joe Flacco's, or Matt Ryan's?
Tell the truth, I think all of their futures look bright. Rodgers has been better than Favre was his rookie year. Ryan is showing why the Falcons paid him so much. Russell missed I don't know how many games last year because he held out so we really don't know about him and Flacco shows signs of potential, but remember they are all rookies for the most part other than Rodgers. Give them a year or two before making a decision
12. Here are the top ten draft picks:
Jake Long (OT, Miami)
Chris Long (DE, St. Louis)
Matt Ryan (QB, Atlanta)
Darren McFadden (RB, Oakland)
Glenn Dorsey (DT, Kansas City)
Vernon Gholston (LB, New York Jets)
Sedrick Ellis (DT, New Orleans)
Derrick Harvery (DE, Jacksonville)
Keith Rivers (LB, Cincinnati)
Jerod Mayo (LB, New England)
Excluding the Falcons and Raiders, which team is benefiting the most from their pick so far this season?
Miami. Jake Long has been a force to be reckoned with in the trenches. He's going to be a long time pro-bowler.
13. What player has had the best single-game performance to date?
McFadden. 161 yards and I think it was 2 touchdowns?
14. What player has surprised you the most in a good way, and who has surprised you the most in a bad way?
Jake Long. I'm not a fan of offensive lineman but I've been watching footage of him and I'm impressed alone by his footwork but his blocking skills are almost perfect. Glenn Dorsey has been a bust so far. But he's on a young team. The same was said about Mario Williams but look how he turned out last year.
15. What rookie RB has the most long-term potential?
Matt Forte, Johnathan Stewart and Steve Slaton. Forte has the ability to become the next Bryan Westbrook. He does it all, his biggest thing he needs to work on is his pass protection though. One more draft and FA and I think Houston will finally have an offensive line that can rival the rest of their division. Stewart landed with a great team in Carolina and he and Williams are going to be a tough team to deal with.
16. Which Browns QB (Anderson or Quinn) will get traded and where should he go?
Quinn. If Anderson salvages this season I can see him being traded. I would take a guess that maybe San Francisco wouldn't be a bad fit for him.
17. Biggest disappointment so far: Browns, Seahawks, Bengals, or Texans?
I'm going to go off the list and say The Dallas Cowboys. If you look at their schedule I think they should really be undefeated right now. They dropped a game to the fucking Cardinals for crying out loud who didn't have Adrian Wilson for the game.
18. What happens to Rex Grossman, Tarvaris Jackson, and Troy Smith now that their starting jobs with their current teams are probably lost for good?
I don't think Smith's job is lost for good. Flacco has another bad week and I think you'll see Smith get a chance at his job. He never lost it to begin with as far as I'm concerned. He was sick. Lost 50 pounds if I'm not mistaken. Let him get his body back into shape and I think he'll be back to his old form.
19. Are the Packers better off without Favre?
Yes. They needed to move on and they did so. Neither side should be bitter. They had a great run.
20. Is Kyle Orton a very good player, or is he just an efficient passer in the right place at the right time?
He is an efficient passer and quite honestly that's all Chicago needs. They have great special teams and a very solid defense that can make up for their offense at times.
21. Who gives Tampa Bay the best chance at a championship: Brian Griese or Jeff Garcia?
Jeff Garcia for the sheer fact that he doesn't turn the ball over. That and the Defense scores every other game. As long as your defense can score..you can win championships.
22. Is Mark Bulger a good QB in a bad situation, or is he overpaid and overrated?
Bad Situation. The team is really missing Mike Martz IMO. That and they have never really found a back that could replace Marshall Faulk. Jackson is good but he's not a back that fits in St. Louis. St. Louis has never been about power they have always been about speed. Jackson is a power back.
23. Considering how well Turner has done with the Falcons and how he is a few years younger than LT, did the Chargers make a mistake in letting him go?
No they didn't because they found a guy who is just as good in Darren Sproles. Both played ST. Both are burners and both get the job done win LT can't.
24. Which team is hurting the most due to injuries?
Tampa Bay. If Galloway gets back to full strength that is going to be a dangerous offense. They just got back one of their offensive lineman in Davin Joesph and they still have quite a few minor injures they are dealing with.
25. Who is the frontrunner for Defensive Player of the Year?
CB Cortland Finnegan of the Tennessee Titans. He has 30 tackles, 27 solo, 7 pass deflections, 4 INTs, 1 TD. He is a very good corner. Jon Abraham leads the league with 7 sacks at the moment.
26. Which team has benefited the most from their offseason decisions?
The Dolphins. Bill Parcells has this team beilieveing that it can win and it can win now. They are dangerous every week. he didn't go out and get big names but he got players that he liked and players who can play.
27. If you knew for a fact that a WR would end up winning the MVP award, who would it most likely be?
If they keep up the pace its either going to be Anquain Boldin or Larry Fitzgerald. Though If the season ended right now I would give it to Reggie Bush. He has 8 total touchdowns at the moment is a lock in my pro bowl ballot already.
28. What is your favorite moment of the season so far?
Reggie Bush vs. Minnesota on Monday Night. Almost three punt return touchdowns.
29. Which team is most likely to hire Bill Cowher after this season is over?
I think Cowher would fit well with Oakland. But that would mean Al Davis would have to back off.
30. Which new head coach has been more impressive: Tony Sporano or Jim Zorn?
Both quite honestly. Zorn has gotten the win over some impressive teams and so has Sporano. Sporano however has also beaten a Bradyless Patriots so that win goes down as a mulligan.
31. Rank your top five players so far this season.
1. Bush
2. Brees
3. Rivers
4. Cutler
5. Favre
32. Finally, which teams are making it to the Superbowl and who will win?
If the defense keeps playing the way they do and yes I know..its a homer pick..Tampa Bay. If the defense keeps scoring then I'm picking them to win the NFC. In the AFC I would love to see Denver make it.
