NFL News

It's the end of another week in football, only one more week before the first quarter of the NFL season is over. Week 3 has had some very interesting games and plays, including some more injury reports to add on the already long list:



Michael Vick has finally been reinstated in the NFL and yesterday's game against the Kansas City Chiefs has made it official. Vick was on the field for 11 plays, which included 7 handoffs for 30 yards.

"I think I played fairly well. I made good decisions with the plays I had. I missed one ball across the middle. I think I could have hit that. i have to make sure I keep my arm warm on the sideline so when I go in there I am not cold. My focus was to be smart and not turn the ball over." Vick stated after the game.

Just to see Vick's face yesterday, he looked like a kid in a candy store. I'm happy that he's back and unlike Pacman Jones, we know he will stay out of trouble. Also the Eagles did win against the Chiefs 34-14 and Kolb actually didn't suck this week. The Eagles are on a bye week for week 4 and McNabb will most likely be back for week 5.




Rookie Mark Sanchez is killing it in New York right now. He helped lead the Jets to another victory making them 3-0. Sanchez threw for two touchdown passes in a 24-17 victory against over the Titans. Sanchez has become the first rookie QB to start a season and win his first three games. Sadly the Titans being the best team last season has not even won a single game this season yet. I think this is the time that Coach Fisher needs to put Vince Young back in, just saying.




At least being 0-3 is better than losing against the worst team in the NFL. The Detroit Lions has finally won their first game since 2007, beating the Redskins 19-14. Sadly Detroit fans in Detroit couldn't watch the game and see their team win since they had a BLACKOUT! That's what they get for not having confidence in their team and going to see them play. So Congrats to all the Lions fans that went to the game and saw rookie Matt Stafford lead your team to your first victory since 2007.

Redskins head coach Jim Zorn should be lucky that if they fired him right now, they are losing coaches for three positions. But, it's not all Zorn's fault, it really isn't; you have to look at the GM also, he just buys players not giving the team chance to have chemistry. Unlike basketball, football you really need chemistry to win games and the Redskins has none. Also Campbell is not ready to be a starting QB, he's a good player but he's just not ready. Hopefully they could recuperate next week.



Shout out to Brett Favre with that last second touchdown throw to Greg Lewis. It was the best play of the week I must say. That touchdown helped the Vikings beat the 49ers 27-24, making the Vikings another undefeated team right now. Also in the game, Favre went in for a block, who would have thought he would do that now a days as old as he is. I think Favre with the Vikings is a really good look for him right now. Just wish it happened last season and earlier instead making all of us wait. PUNK!
