September 14th, 2009 NFL week 1 thoughts

It has been confirmed by multiple websites that Brian Urlacher is out for the season and that he will has surgery to repair his dislocated wrist. I am sad to see one of the games great players out for this whole season, but as a Bears fan I can’t help but think if Urlacher was in the game in the 4th Quarter last night he might have told Nathon Vasher that press coverage was not a good idea on Greg Jennings.

My buddy, let’s call him “CNN”, for sake of this post, is a huge Bengals fan. I make sure to text him every week to let him know who the Bengals are going to lose to that given week. CNN has for years texted back with “Nobody”, but that hasn’t gone well for him has it?Yesterday stung just a little more than usual.  Make sure to watch the video below. Gus Johnson lost his mind.

I know people love to hear about other people’s fantasy teams, but I got demolished in all 3 of my leagues.

The Jets put together a great performance in week one, holding down a Texans team that was getting a lot of sleeper buzz and was supposed to score a whole bunch of points. See the above post and reference Andre Johnson and Steve Slaton.

I could have lead the Vikings to victory yesterday the way that All Day played, so let’s not give the old man too much credit just yet. It is warm, Brett is healthy and it was the friggin’ Browns, I have the wait and see attitude with the newest Brett Farve Era, so should you.
