The only game I would watch is San Diego vs GB

SUPERGLUE YOURSELF TO THE COUCH
4. Dallas (2-0) at Chicago (1-1) 8:15 p.m.
It could be argued the Cowboys are the best team in the NFC right now. The real test will be against last year's NFC king in a game pitting the NFC's best offense vs. the NFC's best defense. (If we need to ID which is which, you clearly don't watch enough football). Plus, any game Devin Hester's playing, we're watching.
3. Indianapolis (2-0) at Houston (2-0) 1 p.m.
This battle for the early lead in the AFC South lost some of its luster with Andre Johnson out for Sunday. The Colts did look beatable last week, though, and the Texans basically built their defense around stopping Peyton Manning. And let's not forget the Texans are the last team to beat the world champion Colts.
2. San Diego (1-1) at Green Bay (2-0) 1 p.m.
Are Brett Favre and the Pack really back? We'll find out Sunday as they host the Chargers, whose brutal opening schedule (vs. Bears, at Patriots, at Lambeau) continues. Fantasy owners will be especially interested in two things: 1) LT; and 2) which Green Bay RB -- Brandon Jackson, Vernand Morency or DeShawn Wynn -- will carry the load this week.
1. San Francisco (2-0) at Pittsburgh (2-0) 1 p.m.
Hey, Mike Tomlin. Guess who else went 3-0 in his first season as the Steelers head coach? (No pressure.) The Niners are gunning for their first 3-0 start in nine years. Two of the three franchises to win five Super Bowls are playing each other and you're not gonna watch?
Number 3 is going to make believers out of everyone. Sunday night we will be saying Texans 3-0, Colts 2-1
I think they got the numbers backwards. If you start with SF-Pitt being the 4th best and work backwards it becomes much closer to being correct.
Pitt will beat SF easily.
SD should beat GB, but at Lambeau it will be interesting
Houston at home has a chance to upset Indy
Dallas at Chi is a toss up. If it were at Tx Stadium I'd have Dallas fairly easily, but in Chi it's anybody's game.
On a side note, Houston was the last team to beat Indy, which was at Reliant. That Indy team was better than it is now, and the Houston team was worse than it is now!! It will be interesting. Dallas offense >> Chicago's Def. Dallas should take it. I agree Pitt is going to destroy SF, and SD will destroy GB.
I can't wait to see Tony Romo vs. the Bears. Two Words: Blood Bath
Nahh...I don't think Dallas will beat them that badly.I can't wait to see Tony Romo vs. the Bears. Two Words: Blood Bath

Strength of the Bears' defense is stopping the run, so the interesting matchup will be Marion the Barbarian meeting Urlacher in the hole. The offensive line of the Cowboys will get test #3 of the season, so far they've destroyed the Giants Strahan and Umenyiora(sp?), and made Jason Taylor, Zack Thomas, and Joey Porter completely irrelevant. If the offensive line wins their battles up front and give decent protection the advantage will be Cowboys. The Bears lost Brown in the secondary and TO, Witten, Crayton, and even Hurd can beat that secondary.
The wild card for the Bears is Hester, and if the Cowboys kick to that guy the special teams coach should be fired. You have to either squib or directional kick away from him on KO and punt towards the sidelines. Luckily McBriar is the best in the game and Folk has done pretty well on KO so they should be able to keep the ball away from Hester if they emphasize doing so.
I hope not Romo and Owens are on my fantasy team![]()
The more I think about it the more I'm wanting to watch Schaub go up against the Colts. I just wish Johnson was healthy for the game to see them at full strength.
Yeah I now, but they are going to run a committee in his place, lets hope the fresh legs work, I for one think Jacoby is due. He had 4 td's in preseason and Jacoby and Mathis are some fast mofo's.
Coach Gary Kubiak said he isn't sure who will start in place of Johnson this weekend, the Houston Chronicle reports. He said Kevin Walter, Jacoby Jones, Jerome Mathis and Andre' Davis will play a near-equal amount.
Recommendation: "I haven't made that decision yet," Kubiak said. "We're just going to keep working all four of them. They're all going to play. They're probably going to rotate every two plays together, keep them fresh." That said, Jones would appear to be the upside play. Johnson is slated to have his knee examined on Friday, and hopefully his status beyond this week will become a little clearer once the results are released.

And let's also not forget that the last time the Colts lost a game, the defense was playing with no balls, no at ude, and couldn't stop the run. Colts have a great front 4, secondary has some questions but whenever you have Bob Sanders back there to pick up the slack it's not really that big of a deal. Colts win this game.
Dallas raped me pretty bad in fantasy last week by raping Miami (my DEF) and Crayton scoring zero fantasy points. Of course the guy I played had Palmer... 6 TDs later, kind of hard to win the week![]()
Texans are gonna get a dose of reality this wkend.
You're picking the Colts? What a shock!!
oh jeez Colts are gonna ing kill the Texans. Matt Schaub's hairline will go back a few more centimeters after this nightmare weekend.
best game of the week is Dallas-Chicago by far, how is it #4?
The only way the Texans win is if the Colts meltdown on Special Teams and allow 80 yard kick returns all day....which could happen.
Texans have about as much chance of beating the Colts as the Bills do at beating the Patriots.
The only two games on the Colts schedule that they could possibly lose are Pats and Chargers. If they get this game on Sunday, then 3 out of the 4 remaining division games are at home and they crack skulls at the Dome, so a W this week wraps up our 5th straight division le unless Sanders s up his shoulder again. That would pretty much neuter our def for the rest of the year.
I think they have a much better chance than the Bills do, but I dont expect much from your ignorant ass MONO!!
Unless Manning goes down at the hands or Super Mario This week!!
I don't know if I'd go that far after getting lucky that a an's receiver can't catch the ball. The Colts are 1 dropped pass away from being 1-1 after two, and last year in Indy the ans should have won the game but let it squeak away in the end. The Colts aren't a lock for anything.
Also, it's comical how suddenly people are thinking the Pats will go 16-0 after beating SD at home in the "emotion" game after they were outed as cheaters. Of course they were winning that game with that kind of motivation and LT adding fuel on the fire. The Pats are a very good team, but there's no way they are going 16-0. It's still an old team with ancient LB that has to finish a grueling 16 game schedule. Chances are they wither down the stretch.
You remind me of Cavs fans right before the Finals. Right before you get brought back down to reality.
We can only hope, the Pats are the Lakers and Yankees of the NFL!!
HAHAH that was a low blow. Yeah I know im being stupid, do I really think we have a chance......yeah, its still a longshot however. With Indy's line and Manning's smarts, im sure he will be just fine against our def. I just like arguing with JT, and I hope I can come back monday with a smile on my face.
