Discuss about the games

I would love to talk about the titans. They are looking at jeff fisher and he might not have that job for long. i mean 59-0? Who's fault is it? What do the titans need to do?

Ravens just lost another winnable game. What do you guys think. I think they are still the AFC's top team.

For the Ravens I agree with ya. Every game they loss was due to a close call, if not in some cases bad calls, this team could easily be a 6-0 team right now. Unlike the Jets who Mark Sanchez is finally showing his inexperience. Not saying he's bad, but showing that he needs time to mature into the starter the Jets want him to be. Problem is that the Jets have dumped so much money into this team to win NOW! That by the time Sanchez becomes that good starting QB, it may be too late. For the Ravens though, a slight alteration to their cornerbacks and secondary, and try and boost their offense just a little more, and they are back on track and can still win their division. As long as those players don't falter after loosing 3 in a row.

The Titans on the other hand, this team has lost all hope at redemtion. Write the team off for the playoffs, all they are hoping for is to salvage a little pride before the end of the season, And still going up against a weak NFC West, they can easily squeeze out a few victories before the season is done. I don't think Jeff Fisher has to worry about his job... yet. As good as he has been in the past, and as good of a head coach as he is, I'm sure the Titans will re-evaluate and fix some, not all of their problems this bye week and finish better than they started. But despite how well they play from here on out, Fisher's job will be in jeopardy and he will be on the hot seat. This franchise will carry him into next season with a, 'Fix this mess or your done' mentality. And if they don't make it back to the playoffs next season, I can see Fisher being fired. But not this year. The two Coaches who are most likely to get fired at this point are Jim Zorn of Washington, and d**k Jaron in Buffalo.

Besides that, Major props to the Saints. With their convincing win over the Giants on Sunday they have established themselves as the team to beat in the NFC. Say what you will about the undefeated Vikings, Minnesota is just a few breaks away from being a 4-2 team right now. Still good, but I wouldn't put them in the same league as the Saints right now. And though the Colts are still ranked the highest AFC team in the ESPN power rankings, the AFC is still too close to call between it's top dogs to plainly say that they are thee #1 team in the AFC. I'm not going to jump the gun and say that New Orleans is Superbowl bound, but Sunday clearly made them an early NFC favorite.

Just when I was about to give up on Houston, they turn around and pull a mighty upset on a tough Bengals team and showed once again their potential. If this team wasn't as inconsistent as they are, they would be a top 5 team in the NFL. I have been eager to see them break through for quite some time now, but every time I back them they fail me, and when I'm about ready to give up on them, they pull off a win like last Sunday and still give guys, like me hope, that my prediction for them in the pre-season can still come true, (9-7 and potential wild card team) I beg of the Texans, Stop leading me on like this! Either play good and prove me right that you are ready to make the next jump up and contend for the playoffs, or just loose already and go back to the drawing board.

Well that's all for my rants for now. We'll see what I have to rant about at the end of week 7

I also want to talk about Jim Zorn and his responsibility. What do you guys think? I heard they're taking some of his play-calling responsibilities away.

The saints are on top of my list as the best in the league now. They have a decent running game, great defense & the best in passing. Brees has a lot of targets I've never noticed before. I really hope they make it to the playoffs this year. The Saints offense reminds me of Kurt Warner's "Best show on turf" or San Diego's "Air Coryell". I think they deserve a nickname :O
