What amazes me is

That everyone is unanimous about the Titans winning a divisional game on the road, when they offense as sputtered and their defense has been bad against the pass. And their top CB (Finnegan) is nursing an injury.

The other things that surprizes me is the respect that Dallas is getting, they have been playing horrible but yet almost everyone took them. They are playing on the road and the Broncos Defense has been playing great, I’m not so sure is so clear cut.

Either believe in your team or don’t coach it

LOL yeah… Denver’s defense has been playing great… in Carson Palmer’s knocking-off-rust game, and against the Raiders and Browns. Yeah – I’ll take Dallas. :)

denver

is a lot better than anyone is giving them credit for and Romo on the road is always a circus….that said, I think it’s a toss up game….denver won’t be able to run on Dallas, leaving it to Kyle Orton. Even if Romo is a TO machine, he’ll make enough plays to win I think

Maybe, maybe not

Denver should be 2-1 with wins over Cleveland and Oakland and aren’t exactly lighting up the scoreboard against these awful teams.

I’d like to see them perform this well, especially defensively, against a very good O like Dallas, or some of the better teams in the AFC because I even consider them all that good.

Today is a great showcase for them. We’ll see how they respond.

But Kyle Orton, Marv, KYLE ORTON!!! They can’t be that good behind him!

I’m glad you consider it a toss up, because it very well could be…

The only one wrong other than our miserable Bills was BAL, so I guess I was right about DEN

I took the Cowboys because I need to catch up and I thought most would take the Broncos. Also I agree that the Titans haven’t been great, but can you honestly say that they are a 0-4 team? They have to win one sooner or later.

No weekend spent pantsless is a wasted weekend.

by sireric on Oct 4, 2009 9:54 AM EDT up reply actions

Yeah, they have to win one pretty soon. But this is a divisional game, and the AFC South is like the AFC East in that those are always nasty and up in the air, even when the last place team in the division plays the first place team.

Agreed, yeah that is surprising. About the Titans. As for the Dallas-Denver matchup, it may be more telling about Denver than Dallas. Denver just the feel of a team that’s on an expanding bubble right now and can’t keep it from eventually bursting. That may be wrong, though….we’ll just have to wait and see.

14-2 10-6 13-3 37-11
This week may be the week where I come down to earth…
Det @ CHI – Cutler set up for a big day
Sea @ IND – Indy has the defense to match up with J.Jones
Ten @ JAC – Defense wins this game
NYG @ Kc – Just a better all around team
Tb @ WAS – TB’s worse than Detroit
Bal @ NE – Like I said last week, don’t be fooled
Oak @ HOU – Houston plays too solidly to lose on a bomb at the end
CIN @ Cle – QB’s not the problem in Cleveland
BUF @ Mia – My upset pick this week (yes they’re actually favored, just not in my mind)
Nyj @ NO – Not even close, this one shows the league some things
DAL @ Den – Denver’s a shell, they look tough but they can’t sustain it
Stl @ SF – 49ers going to compete this year
Sd @ PIT – Tough call, the Steelers are having an off year
Gb @ MIN – Packers will win this in GB
