In this Halloween edition of the Fix there are plenty of spooky things this past weekend. 1st, the A.J. Feeley lead Rams got their first win against the juggernaut New Orleans Saints. The Arizona Cardinals give the Baltimore Ravens quite a scare by nearly winning in D.C., while the Miami Dolphins frightened the N.Y. Giants. Finally, Tim Tebow dressed up as a NFL QB and scared everyone!
Speaking of Tebow, the guys consider if Tebow time should be over in Denver? A certain Lions defender said, “Come on — that’s embarrassing. I mean, it’s a joke. We knew all week that if we brought any kind of defensive pressure, he couldn’t do anything. In the second half it got boring out there. We were like, ‘Come on — that’s your quarterback? Seriously?” Chris Houston went on to say, “He’s an athlete. He’s no Peyton Manning or Tom Brady or no Michael Vick or none of that. He’s got a long ways to go as far as being a quarterback.”
MRI Monday produces a list as long as Jeff’s arm: Giants WR Hakeem Nicks, Cardinals QB Kevin Kolb, Dolphins C Mike Pouncey, Jaguars rookie QB Blaine Gabbert, Texans LB Darryl Sharpton, Steelers LB LaMarr Woodley, Browns RB Montario Hardesty, Cowboys LB Sean Lee, Bengals CB Adam Jones suffered a right hamstring injury after returning for one play.
The weekly Andrew Luck sweepstakes update tells us that the Rams dropped out of the race by winning and though we don’t cover college football here, Stanford beat USC this week in 3OT. Indianapolis and Miami remain winless and easy favorites for the prize of the big studly collegiate QB.
Damn, I know the Skins are bad, but you don’t have to move the Ravens to DC. (third line of the recap)
As you list the purple things Jeff might resemble, how about going old school with Dino Flintstone?
