    Ouch. You'd have wrecked if you'd have kept Williams in the lineup.

    Though, FWIW, I'd have started Stewart too.

    Friggin' Texans. So dissapointing. We were up 27-10 with 4:45 left in the 4th quarter and we go on to give up 21 points in that amount of time. WTF!! I hate the Colts.

    Btw, the Giants look raw. They are killing every team by a big margin. I see them repeating!

    People are jumping on the Giants bandwagon and I don't know how to handle it. Its unfamiliar territory for me.

    I'm still ranking the Titans above the Giants, btw. Even though NY's looked more impressive when you factor in both sides of the ball, I need to see them beat some better competition first. And it looks like I'll have to wait until Week 8 for that.

    LOL I'm not jumping on their bandwagon. I don't follow them or anything. I just like the way they're playing and I think they might repeat, that doesn't mean im jumping on their bandwagon! I'm still a Texans fan.

    My bad. I wasn't specifically referring to you, Umair. I was thinking more about the media. They really tried to downplay last season's Super Bowl run over the offseason and now they're hyping us up again after we beat a bunch of shitty teams. This team's thrived off the underdog role, so I'm wondering how they'll respond to this new coverage.

    I was up 50 pts before the Sunday night game. Down three afterwards. Big Ben and Ward killed me. Thankfully, I have AP going tonight and I'm pretty confident in him getting 4 points :NOTMARIS: That's a sweet smiley.

    Stewart and McClain have saved my ass this season. I had McGahee as my #2 and that didn't go over real well so I picked up McClain and already had Stewart on my bench. Next week CAR is playing Tampa whose #1 against the run and I'm not so sure about starting both of them with the flex. With Boldin out, I'm leaning on Lav Coles to pick up the slack. God knows Randy Moss and Andre Johnson aren't good enough WRs to be relying on:NOTMARIS::NOTMARIS::NOTMARIS::NOTMARIS::NOTMARIS::NOTMARIS:

    EDIT: And as a Patriots and Celtics fan, I know all about bandwagon fans. You don't know how much you hate them until you have them.

    Kornheiser is now justifying how Bush is better than Mario Williams because of that punt return?

    Let's not get carried away.

    Wow. I have the game on in the backround and Bush is killing it today. This game owns my "Reggie Bush is a Bust" thread.

    And after all that, Gramatica misses a FG at the end and the Saints lose by 3.

    Low and behold, I lose. This is heartbreaking to the nth degree.

    First I was like :smiley-smug: . I was :ghoti: all day, thinking that AP would win me my game. I watch the first half and I'm all :smiley-hvala:. Big deal, AP can get me four points by the secon half. Half way through the fourth quarter, I'm :NOTMARIS: this is getting close. After the game, I'm :smiley-ugh:, I'm a cocky bastard.
