My oh my, Jason Campbell and Tony Romo are atop the TQBR rankings this week. And will Tom Brady keep this up? Wow.

It is hard to believe that Rodgers is so far below Romo, JC, and Hasselbeck. It makes me wonder about the meaningfulness of this TQBR stat.

Edit: my bad, I took the link above to be cumulative for the season. Here is the cumulative chart, which is more sensible:

Dirtbag it looks like you've failed to entice people into thinking that picture of Vick is current. Sorry bro.

This still goes in in Georgia? Shocker! lol. I was watching the game last night and couldn't help but notice that all the white Alt. fans had on #2 jerseys and all the black Atl fans had on #7 jerseys. To a lot of the black folks down there in Atl it's like Vick is some kind of cult hero or something. I just don't get it.

It should be no surprise that racial attitudes are more prevalent in the south. The blacks wearing Vick's jersey could be construed as having an allegiance to Mick Vick based only on race, which is foolish. But much of, I believe, is symbolic of a cultural resentment, that has existed within the African-American community, towards our judicial system that pre-dates the civil rights era going all the way back to slavery.

And then you have those that are Mick Vick fans through and through regardless.

Since Tom Brady and Cam Newton already have their own threads, I thought I would keep this on this thread. Props to Ray Ray for reaching this milestone: 2,500 tackles.

Yeah.. Now we face a rival in Dallas who will be missing a few players it looks like, and potentially Romo. If we come out with a win here, and go to the Rams the following week. We could be looking at 4-0 entering the BYE!!!!

Rams looked sloppy tonight.

Pass rush is still strong for Dallas and the Lambs. For the Skins, that means both games will struggles. We are not cakewalking anyone just yet. That might come later in the season as they climb that learning curve.

Huh? Why would I try to convince people that a picture of Vick in a Falcon uniform is current? I was using it to cite the fact that Vick on two different occasions has taunted the Atlanta fans in some, way, shape, or form. The picture was for the first incident the story was for the one that took place on Sunday Night.

Well to be fair I saw a couple of black people wearing Matt Ryan jersey's today, but yeah that was kind of funny during the broadcast how all the people they showed on camera wearing Ryan jersey's were white and all the people wearing Vick jersey's were black. Sometimes though it's hard to tell who was wearing Vick jersey's because that was the only jersey they owned or if it was because they were a member of the "Atlanta Vicks."

Don't get me wrong, the Atlanta area is a great place to live, some of the nicest, most hospitable people you'll ever meet. Just realize that every now and then you're going to see and hear things that make you scratch your head. lol.

I'd try not to look that far ahead Bucket.

It's nice and that would be a feat, but you can never just count wins like that until the game is played.
