HALL BEAT UP IN FALCONS LOCKER ROOM?There are uncorroborated rumors making the rounds that Falcons cornerback DeAngelo Hall was beat up, presumably by one or more teammates, following a Falcons loss that was fueled in part by Hall's inability to control his emotions. After being flagged for a total of 37 yards on a second-half drive that the Panthers used to tie the game, Hall got into a sideline confrontation with coach Bobby Petrino. We don't know for sure whether Hall was indeed roughed up or otherwise accosted by teammates after the game, but it wouldn't surprise us to find out that the rumor is true. Hall is a brash and outspoken member of the organization, and his Virginia Tech ties to Mike Vick probably have prompted some in the locker room to view him differently in the wake of Vick's legal troubles. Today's actions would have potentially been enough to get a frustrated Falcon to convert hostile feelings toward Hall into action. - ProFootballTalk.com It was one of the dogs Vick kept in his locker, the rest of the team just put a Vick jersey on him, then released the dog. When will people learn that Joey Harrington really does suck. Ive been saying that he sucked since he played for Detroit, and everytime I did people said it was the rest of the team not him, hes ed up in 3 teams now. He should not be allowed to touch another football.

In fairness, I think there are only a select handful of quarterbacks who would be even moderately successful in Atlanta right now.

Honestly, Harrington looked good yesterday. Which is typical for him. 1/3 games he looks good. That line and running game are so bad, that nobody could be too successful there.

The Steelers game was decent yesterday. The 49ers stole three points from us, but I am not complaining because we won. Had we lost I would be ranting on and on Congrats to all teams who won!

I like the Titans, but I went with the Saints. Frankly I do not care who wins, but I think the Saints have the uper hand in this match up, but I could be wrong.

man stuart scott's eyes are ed up Wikipedia: Scott was struck in the eye by a Jugs machine with a football while doing receiver drills while covering the New York Jets. Scott had been invited to join in pre-season training camp by head coach, Herm Edwards. He has undergone many serious eye surgeries in the attempt for correction. However, these attempts were unsuccessful and his eye was replaced with a glass one.

Bush gets me my two scores, but not enough yards. I think I ended up tying, missing the win by 5 yards. I hate ties in h2h. It should just go to total touchdowns.

the most shocking factor of the eagles 0-2 start, to me, was the fact that both losses could be traced back to offensive efficiency. leading up to the season i had expected the defense to be the issue... breaking in 3 new linebackers and two young defensive tackles, i thought we'd get run all over by everyone. the positive, to me, was that i felt the offensive would be genuinely explosive when clicking. there players, coaches and schemes were all there for this to be the NFL's #1 offense.
then the offense came out completely flat, and the defense shined enough to keep the eagles in both games.
but this Detroit game was different. it was closer to what my expectations were for this team; the offense was a threat to score every damn time it had the ball, and the defense "bent but didn't break," thanks mostly to their 9 sacks and some timely turnovers. but it was a fireworks offense and a fragile defense that won the game, and thats what i expected from this '07 eagles team. not sure if thats a good thing, necessarily--21 points to a bad Detroit at home might be disconcerting. but its what i expected, and i expected a 12-4 season.
-Brian Westbrook has stepped it up this year. not only on the field, but as a locker room leader. and on the field, he is clearly one of the very finest players in the NFL. he is running hard, he's running tough, he's showing unprecedented breakaway speed and an unbelievable grasp of the passing game. before every single offensive snap of the game you can legitimately stop and think, "brian westbrook might break off a TD right here, right?" and thats amazing to me.
-McNabb answered his critics. he stepped it up. he played well under adversity. whatever cliche you want to cite, go ahead. any way you cut it, he was extremely efficient and the shedding of the knee brace he'd adorned in weeks 1 and 2 made him appear to be the McNabb of yore. it was fantastic to see.
-don't be blinded by Sunday's performance; Kevin Curtis is not the 2nd coming of Jerry Rice. but he is one thing: an amazing route runner. and Sunday showed that when he can sync up those amazing routes with Donovan McNabb's timing, things can get out of hand. it was really "pitch and catch" in its most literal form. Curtis's stop routes and fake posts had the Detroit DB's so baffled that all Donovan had to do was throw it in Curtis's zip code and it was gonna be 6. its important to note the incompetence of Detroit's DB's, but with a few more weeks of creating chemistry, i greatly anticipate what Kevin Curtis brings to this offense.
-the offensive line dominated the game. Andy Reid's mantra of "winning games in the trenches" was never more evident than here. Tra Thomas was tremendous on the left side, and 2006 2nd-rounder Winston Justice even filled in admirably when Thomas left briefly with a knee sprain. Left Guard Todd Heremans had the best game of his career, and proved that he is one of the NFC's best interior linemen. He easily handled Detroit's Shaun Rogers, and was often seen making 2nd level blocks on linebackers. Center Jamaal Jackson was quick off of every snap and was straight-blowing up people on a handful of plays. That side of the line was absolutely DOMINANT.
-the defense gave up 500 yards of total offense, over 400 passing yards, and 21 points at home. those numbers don't sound too good if you're an Eagles fan. but factor in this: the eagles racked up 9 sacks, they held Detroit to 4-of-14 on 3rd down, and forced Detroit to only 2 scores in 6 red zone trips. those numbers are exactly the type of "bend but don't break" numbers that defensive coordinator Jim Johnson doesn't mind seeing.
-Trent Cole is the best situational rusher in the NFL, period. and Broderick "Broad Street" Bunkley is playing up to the potential that made him the 14th overall pick last year. Mike Patterson has become the type of respected player who draws consistent double-teams, and therefore he was quiet against Detroit. but his impact was felt in how productive it made guys like Cole, Bunkley and Howard.
-ps, all those passing yards or not... we were without CB Lito Sheppard and FS Brian Dawkins. you know, two All Pro's. and two of the consensus best players at their respective positions.
