Not sure I remember the game losing INT in this Ravens game. You can say that about the Browns, but Wheeden also threw one dropped INT in the Browns game.
I can say that Vick looked good in this Ravens game. He mostly made good decisions and his throws were accurate. He ran at intelligent times. He wasn't great. I'm not being delusional. He didn't play well enough to win a Superbowl. That's fine for right now though.

Vick threw the game losing INT in both games, the defender just couldn't catch them. He's looked bad and I'm not sure how you can argue otherwise. Maybe they didn't deserve loses (their opponents deserved them more) but they can't squeak by forever and it's a damn good thing they are in the NFC East (call it parity but you just know every team in the division is going to be hovering around .500 late in the season). Anyway, Philly won a World Series, a few years ago, so can't you guys just be content with that and slink back into the sporting abyss, where you belong?

How do they deserve loses when they outplayed both their opponents? Vick looked fine in this game. He threw one bad INT. Aside from that he did what he needed to do against a good defense.

^ I don't know that a QB has looked that bad in back-to-back wins since the days of Trent Dilfer. Happy they beat Baltimore but it's time for Vick and the Birdies to start getting the losses they deserve. Also, Sanchez is still Sanchez, thankfully.

Sad to see the Eagles pulled out a win, but looks like the Cowboys are at least going down to the Seahawks.

Wow, I'm not sure what to say about that Giants game.
The defense is utterly atrocious, and frighteningly the pass rush was very lackluster...but Andre Brown was actually running pretty well and Eli: 510 yards!
Those 3 picks were terrible, and he made some very WTF decisions. Terrible first half, but he came out bombing it still. Throwing it deep, into coverage, tossing it to Bennett despite all his drop, he calmly steps around the pocket and evades any pressure. The man is pure ice.

I can't say the officiating was good, but I also can't say that I found it to be uneven.

Yeah, some crazy bad calls all around it seems. Sadly couldn't see the battle of the birds it was one I would have liked to see. And yay Gmen!! Poor offensive play in the beginning leads to 41 pts and 510 passing yards for eli. Woo comeback!! I was expecting a shootout in that game but not that much of one!

I give the Eagles credit where credit is due,especially Celek,who had a monster game.But Torry Smith running down the field with a defender having two fistfuls of jersey the whole way and that not getting called really pissed me off.
Rough game too,talk about a war of attrition.

Cam Cameron sucks as an OC.Passing the ball on 3 and short repeatedly just baffles me.

Saints defensively are lost.....pretty much no answer for any decent running/throwing QB.......Looks like another loss and a 0-2 start. Cannot win if Brees is not on the field. Head coaches do mean something during game time

Defense could be an issue though. Been masking problems with balls to the wall blitz...maybe it finally falls apart.

WTF??? I know the NY region didn't get the Redskins-Saints game. If you saw it you'd know the Skins beet the crap out of the Saints, in THEIR Dome.... Atlanta is back, Tampa seems feisty. The Saints could have a free fall and miss the playoffs, which I think they will miss the playoffs. Brees & the team looked lost against the Skins. This week will be very telling if the Saints don't come out and win big.

That is very true. Sometime within the next 5 years, you know it's guaranteed to happen at least once.
It still surprises me that a lot of people think the Saints will have a winning record this year. I mean, I guess if you're being led by Drew Brees, you have a shot. He definitely has a chance to be the glue that holds the team together. Unfortunately I just think that they've had too many off-field distractions. I don't see how that won't affect their season.
I also think they have a few trap games early on in their schedule. I could see them going 2-3 or 1-4 by the time they get to their bye week.
