Around SBN: Chauncey Billups Injures Achilles Tendon

Early Games Open Thread

Remember, the two early games of importance are the NE/BUF and MIA/TEN matchups.  Neither of which are really barnburners, but they'll set the table for a good collection of late games.

I'll be around for the Chargers game.  Until then, Zach is your substitute teacher.

Not a whole lot to watch.

The game of the week was on last night, and only two games this morning have a tangential effect on the Padres.

So, Go Bills and Dolphins!

The Pats are seriously beat up.

Warren and Wilfork are both out. That, plus their secondary issues, may make things difficult on defense for New England.

You're gonna have to hit up a sports bar

or an illegal stream. It won’t be on local TV your area—you’re subjected to Raiders @ Broncos.

An aside: My sister lives in Sacramento

And she’s been loving the fact that Raiders home games are actually being blacked out this year, because then that means usually she can see the Chargers games.

its actually not bad watching Jamarcuss and teh raiders suck all year

thats the one redeeming thing about living up here is that I can watch the raiders suck, lol

Buffalo has a nice opening dive going.

And Miami is knocking on the door straight off.

Miami kicks a field goal.

3-0 Fish.

3-0 Buffalo.

After a ten-minute opening drive. Key play was a false start at the NE 2 that took away a touchdown.

Vince Young

is 2-7 for 54 yards, a TD and an INT.

That’s a weird line.

Miami just caught a HUGE break.

Ginn fumbled a punt, but the guy who caused the fumble was so busy hitting him that he took himself out of the play, and Miami recovered.

It's going to be embarassing

listening to all of his slip ups this year

If I purchased MLB radio would it be the Leitner and Coleman broadcast?

My understanding

is that you can choose either the home or away broadcasts.

Chris Johnson scares the crap out of me.

I’d really, really like to get everything clinched today. Plus I don’t want that TEN team injuring half our guys again.

Buffalo is terrible.

New England will almost certainly get their first true road win today.

This is the third year in a row

where every media talking head says “this has to be Belichick’s best coaching job ever.”

If the Chiefs and Raiders ever get real quarterbacks

this division is gonna get a lot harder.

How 'bout that Saints - Cowboys game?

You just knew that the Saints’ slow starts would catch up to them at some point.

two observations from that game

1. Nick Folk should never have a job again in football. that last miss was embarrassing to watch… I HATE the Cowboys, and that was hard to watch for me.

2. the NFL Network has the worst broadcast teams in history. that was one of the most poorly called games i’ve ever seen. at one point Matt Millen was claiming that Marques Colston was making stops in the backfield. just pure insanity.

agreed

I just started watching games on NFL Network a few weeks ago and I agree with their announcers. But what is so irritating to me is Deion Sanders. He’s an idiot. I like Rich Eisen and when they do their recap, stupid Deion doesnt shut up , its awful. Last weekend it was Deion and Michael Irvin, omg, it was awful. Those two idiots think they’re so funny , but they sound totally ignorant and stupid. I finally turned it off.

Millen

I had to turn the sound off, couldnt deal with him anymore. I wonder who is calling our xmas game on thursday.

I’ll be back later for the Charger game.

Josh Cribbs

is a BEAST. 2 kickoff return TDs today now puts him in sole possession of first place all time.
