Seattle is legit, for reals, guys. And Kevin Kolb was important to the Cardinal's success! Now if only my predictions worked for the Saints.

Yeah, this was a big win for the seahawks. Glad to see the team is relevant again.

Wow, crazy slate of games in the second half. I can't remember who I picked between Washington and Minnesota, but it's not incredibly surprising that Washington won. They have a very good offense. It turns out that, while I was upset, this was a better game to watch than the Niners v Giants game. I thought it was a close call on this game, but couldn't believe the beat down they delivered today. If only the Giants knew how to play that way every week, no one would ever question them.

Loved seeing Arizona lose. I don't know why I dislike them.

I was pretty pumped when I heard Seattle hit a long TD to beat the Patriots. It's about time Sidney Rice started earning all that money they gave him. Watching the highlights just now was a great reminder of how terrible the Patriots defense is. The secondary blew so many deep coverages in that game. If only Russel Wilson was two inches taller. It's apparent that his height is a disadvantage to him in the pocket, but he seems good at making minor shifts to find a viewing lane and launch the ball.

I remember when I heard that the vikings traded rice to the seahawks.

I had just bought his jersey. gg

also the ending to viks redskins was one of the biggest heart breakers I've seen sense the nfc championships When the saints broke farves body and spirit. never forget never forgive.

New England's pass defense was like 28th or something, which is horrible, on the other hand, Russell Wilson had like the 3rd worst QB rating in the league. So I guess NE's pass defense is just SO bad that it made Russell Wilson look like great QB.

He was hitting receivers deep. But, they were getting plenty of separation.

He's making typical rookie mistakes, from what I've seen (and I've tried to catch as much Seahawks football as possible this year, because I like Wilson), which negatively effects his passer rating, but he's not playing as badly as his stats are when you watch the throws he makes. The height disadvantage is getting to him, I think, and in general the speed of the game, etc, all the stuff rookies struggle with. He's had to go against some pretty good defenses, and really good pass rushes all season long: Arizona (good all around D), Dallas (good pass rush with D Ware), Green Bay (Again, good pass rush with Matthews), St. Louis (Good all around D, solid rush). Then he got Carolina and New England. His line isn't helping him in a lot of situations. There was a particular situation vs Carolina where his line collapsed in under 2 seconds, he escaped pressure and made a great throw to Lynch who bobbled the pass, which was subsequently intercepted. His other INT in that game was a forced pass that he should have thrown with more arch. Obviously a great game today... this discussion really makes me want to buy NFL Rewind, haha.

In other news, Ray Lewis may be done for the season with a torn triceps. Lardarius Webb also injured.

Don't start a RB vs Miami ever this season. I personally would play Jeremy Kerley vs Indy but Torrey Smith vs Dallas is also enticing.

Kerley ended up doing the worst. =_=

Lots of upsets this week by teams with a lesser record. Granted, some of those lesser teams might just be having early struggles. I count 8 wins so far by the team with the weaker record coming in. 9, if Green Bay holds.

Not sure what this is supposed to mean. Green Bay is one of those teams that can beat any other team on a good day.

Yeah, as much as GB is a talented team that plays poorly a lot, and they should be able to compete with any team, any week... Houston is playing really poorly right now, imo.
