Hoagie Central's Monday Morning Bonerjam NFL Jumbalaya


Since TMQ decided to puss out and not include a tidbit from every nfl game, I guess I'll have to fill in. (Although to be fair, it's hard to cover all the games and get under ESPN's limit of 100 GB of html data when you devote 12 paragraphs to Battlestar Galactica and how more people should be Christian.)

I think it's clear, the quarterback of the future for the Cardinals is Kurt Warner. Right now, they've got to go with Leinart, but keep developing this Warner kid, and maybe in a couple years he can win the starting job.

After setting the touchdown record last year, Tomlinson is trying to set the record for most fantasy football owners cursing his name. 62 rushing yards? If I wanted 62 rushing I would have drafted Najeh Davenport with the #1 overall pick.

In Tampa Bay it was obvious that the Rams are a playoff team, but ran into the Super Bowl favorite Buccaneers.

If the Steelers can start the season 4-0 against Cleveland, Buffalo, San Fran and Arizona next week, it's time to start booking Super Bowl hotel rooms.

Kitna threw for 65 more passing yards then McNabb. So why is everyone all excited about McNabb? Probably because he's black. I guess the media is giving black quarterbacks the benefit of the doubt.

Ronnie Brown has a 38 point fantasy day and Trent Green throws for 300 yards. With numbers like that, no one can beat them.

Tom Brady is a jerk. He's totally hogging all the touchdowns so Maroney can't get any. It's almost as if Tom drafted himself in his Boston Douchebag league. Does any one else think it's fishy that the Patriots have scored 38 points in every game this year? At this point, I think they're just fucking with us.

The Chiefs's defense was sparked by the return of Jared Allen, a monster pass rusher. Herm Edwards told him to imagine Kelly Holcomb was holding the last beer in the stadium.

The Colts win by 6, just as Vegas predicted. The Texans would have won, if they could have gotten more out of the best running back in the league, Ahman Green.

During the Bengals' loss, Carson Palmer was seen yelling at his defense to just "hurry up and let them score a touchdown, so we can get a touchdown with a 2-point conversion." Also, this makes perfect sense: Rudi Johnson 17 attempts for 9 yards, Kenny Watson 9 attempts for 60 yards and a score.

Oakland pulls the call a timeout at the last second trick, the same one that defeated them last week. It's scary how close the Browns were to a winning record.

The Jaguars had three times as many rushing yards as the Broncos. Also, the game winning score was a 18 yard field goal for John Carney. I'm surprised he made it, considering he has trouble with kicks from that distance:

The Giants beat the Redskins proving that even rivalry games that are close at the end, aren't very interesting to watch.

The Panthers beat the Falcons, relying on their star receiver, #87 Jeff King, who led the team with 56 yards and a score.

I think the reason the Cowboys took the damn field, is because the Bears are who they thought they were. Considering Grossman has the longest consecutive start streak for Chicago quarterbacks in over ten years, it's just a shame they don't have the talent around him to win. He's out there, being sexy, throwing the long ball, and he team keeps letting him down. So much for that vaunted Chicago defense. Way to give up 34 points.

And here's a tidbit about a game that hasn't even been played yet:

Just another reason to love fantasy football--walking down the hall of my office and hear a stranger say "Unless Drew Brees throws 600 yards and 9 touchdowns, I'm screwed."

(also, I'm just saying, if you throw for 600 yards and don't get any touchdowns, I think you should still get more than 24 points. Whatever.)
