Week 3 Recap

   Now that Week 3 is over, lets recap on what we seen this past weekend.

   The first game that I would like to talk about is the Cowboys vs. Texans. The Dallas Cowboys made a statement that they could not be pushed over, by a team that really had everything good going for them. I really like how the Cowboys played this game. They showed that they could pass the ball, as well as run the ball. The Cowboys showed that they wanted this game more. Winning the game 27-13, it was a nice way to win right before the bye week. As for the Texans, they need a win against the Raiders in Week 4. DeMarcus Ware having 3 sacks, and Roy Williams had 2 receiving touchdowns.

   The big Monday Night Football game was a very good game. I am sorry if you missed it. Two quarterbacks, that have been doing very well this year, played very well in this game too. Aaron Rodgers was making some nice, tight throws. Racking up 316 passing yards, 1 passing touchdown, 1 rushing touchdown, and 1 interception. He played very well as always in this close game. Cutler played very well too. With 221 passing yards, 1 passing touchdown, and 1 interception. This game goes down to the last eight seconds, as Robbie Gould booted a chip shot to win the game. Cutler has led the Bears to the best record in the N.F.C. Being the only team in the N.F.C. that is 3-0. Devin Hester having a big punt return in this game for a touchdown, that would help late in the Bears win.

   I was so close to picking the Falcons to beat the Saints this week, but I thought to myself that it isn't smart to go against the Superbowl champs. So I took the Saints, and boy was I wrong. The Falcons showed that they can beat the Superbowl champs. Watch out for this team, let me tell you. The Falcons stayed in there with a good Saints offense, and the Falcons showed that they had a better kicker. I say this because Saints kicker Garrett Hartley missed a quite easy field goal in overtime. Matt Ryan passed for 228, and had 2 passing touchdowns. A very good outing for him. Being the defending champs, everyone is trying to hit you where it hurts, and the Falcons were the first ones to do it. We will see if the Saints bounce back against the Panthers in Week 4.

   Well here are a few games that were very good this past weekend, I hope you thought they were too, but if you didn't tell me about it. Tell me which games you liked, and which ones you didn't. So that means to COMMENT!

PFH's Players of the Week & DUD of the Week

   Okay everybody, I hope you enjoyed the football games this past season. Now who was the PFH's Players of the Week you ask? Well lets just find that out right now.
   Offense first! PFH's Offensive Player of the Week is Austin Collie. Collie did way too much not to get recognized as one of the top performers of this week. With Garcon and Gonzalez out, Austin Collie knew that he needed to step it up, and he did just that. Look at his highllights. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uycamcCww0Y These are highlights of the whole game, but look at the plays Collie makes.

   Now defense, PFH's Defensive Player of the week is DeMarcus Ware. Ware had a good week for Dallas. Had three sacks and five tackles for losses. He made sure that his presence was known as the Cowboys defeated the Texans. No highlights on him at this point. Maybe there can be some later.

   Okay guys now for the PFH's DUD of the week is Eddie Royal. Royal has been doing good this week, but this past week was not what I wanted to see from him. The Broncos need a wepon like Royal, and he was no where to be found on Sunday. As Royal only racked up 23 recieving yards.

   Here are the Players of the Week, and of course your DUD of the week. I hope you like!

Players to watch for in Week 3

   Here are some people that I think that will have a good game this weekend.

             1.Troy Polamalu http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SvSHioeVEhI (Playing Buccaneers)

             2.Frank Gore http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ujL1iz-_DIM       (Playing Chiefs)

             3.Chris Johnson http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BL6yBbKp5oQ (Playing Giants)

             4.Ray Rice http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c8K7MbVkukM      (Playing Browns)

             5.Jay Cutler http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eK22yJOZANw     (Playing Packers)

Week 3 on the Gridiron

   Hey everybody, I hope you have enjoyed my recent posts. I hope you know anyone can leave comments so leave comments and ask any football question that you may have, and I will be more than happy to answer them, okay thanks. Now lets talk some week 3 NFL Football!

   Now last week my picks were okay, but definitely not as good as I wanted them to be, so I plan on redeeming myself here in week3. The first game that I am keeping my eye on is the Titans vs. Giants game. This game is gonna be close I think, if the Giants can hold Chris Johnson from having a gigantic game. Now will they hold him like the Steelers held him last week? No, I know for a fact Chris Johnson is going to have his game face on tommorow after being held under 40 yards last week against the Steelers. Now the Giants have a reason to come out swinging too. Suffering an embarrasing loss to the Colts last week, the Giants are going to try to steal one back. The defense couldn't stop the running game with Joseph Addia and Donald Brown carving through that defense, so how are they suppose to stop Chris Johnson. If the Titans play good defense, and  get after Eli, and rush him out of the pocket along with a few good hits on him, there shouldn't be a reason why the Titans lose this game. My Pick = Titans

   I like the Falcons vs Saints game. This game got a lot more interesting with the game the Saints played last week. Letting Alex Smith take his 49ers offense all the way down the feild for a late touchdown. Now the Saints still won that game on the last drive with a game winning feild goal, but that is the only thing that scares me about this game, is the Saints ability to get down the feild quick without making any mistakes and get points. If the Falcons can execute a better game plan than the 49ers, then the final score could have the Saints losing their first game. Matt Ryan is obviously a better QB than Alex Smith, I think anyone would agree, so the Saints could have more trouble on defense. Turner had an injury last week, I hear that he will still be starting for the Falcons, so that is big for them. They need to execute on the running gamme, kind of like the 49ers were doing last week with Frank Gore. Roddy White is having a big year so far, it will be nice to see if that continues. Both teams have targets that they can throw to, but I think the Saints have more. It's hard to go against the Superbowl Champs. My Pick = Saints

   The Cowboys vs. Texans game is looking to be quite the match up. I like the situation both teams are in, it makes the game more important to both teams. With the Cowboys in a dieing need for a win (0-2), the Texans are (2-0). The Cowboys had so many expectations on making it to a superbowl this year, after winning one playoff game against the Eagles last year, and that the superbowl is being held at the Cowboys home feild, now it looks like the Cowboys are being left behind. The Texans situation is a lot more sweeter, but still has a lot of pressure for the Texans. The Texans are sitting on top of their division, after beating the Colts in week 1 (second win against Colts in team history), and coming back against the Redskins, and beating them in overtime. One win above everyone in their division, the Texans need to focus on winning in week 3.  They do not want to get into that kind of game with Peyton Manning to see who will win the division. Stay in front of the Colts, and don't look back. It is time for Tony Romo to be a leader for this football team. When you are a Quarterback in the NFL, sometimes you have to put the team on your shoulders, and it's now or never for Romo. He needs to show everyone that he can do it. I dont't know when that first win will come for the Cowboys, but it won't be this week. My Pick = Texans

   I can't wait to see the Packers vs. Bears game. Both teams are 2-0, and are looking good at this point. A rivalry between these two teams that has been going on for years now. This is a battle to be at the top of the division (as the Vikings and Lions hang behind both 0-2), both teams will be dialing up the pass I'm sure. Both quarterbacks are having a good season at this point. Aaron Rodgers putting passes on the money (as expected), but Jay Cutler has been doing the same for the Bears. Cutler has spread the ball around very well in Mike Martz's system, but from the looks of it, he like to pass it to his running back Matt Forte. It reminds me of the system Martz ran with Marshall Faulk in St. Louis. This can be a shoot out, but then again you can look at the defensive side of the ball for both teams. Both teams have one heck of a pass rusher. The Bears' Julius Peppers, everyone knows that he will make every tackle and quarterback he faces miserable, but if you look at the Packers defense, you will see this guy with long blond hair always making plays, called by the name Clay Mattews. Comes from a football family for sure, and he is making o-lines look bad. This guy for sure right now, is one of the uprising stars in the league on defense. It gets me pumped just thinking about how good this game is going to be! My Pick = Packers

   A low-scoring game that I am going to pick is the Steelers vs. Buccaneers. Yes, it will be a low-scoring game I am predicting. With Charlie Batch starting at quarterback for the Steelers, I don't see him lighting up the score board. If Mendenhall can get rolling on the carries he will be getting, then it will make it that much easier for Batch. Josh Freeman is looking very good for the Buccaneers, big reason why they are 2-0, but I don't see him doing a whole lot against that Steelers defense. I mean this defense is that good, might be the best I have ever seen them. Polamalu is flying around everywhere on that defense, James Harrison coming off a monster game against the Titans, Lamarr Woodley was making plays including an interception, and Timmons has been a tackling machine, and don't forget that they held Chris Johnson to UNDER 40 YARDS RUSHING last week! Mike Willams has looked good for Tampa Bay at wide reciever, Cadilac Willams not looking bad either, but I don't see them having a good game against that Steelers defense. My Pick = Steelers

   Well I hope you like my picks, hey if you don't tell me about it, leave a comment. Ask questions, tell me what games you are looking forward to watching. Have a great time this weekend watching the games!

PFH's Players of the Week & DUDS of the Week

   Hey guys, this is the first week of PFH's Players & DUDS of the Week. I will do this every week.

   PFH's Offensive Player of the Week is Jahvid Best. Jahvid Best had a monster week against the Eagles defense. With 78 rushing yards, 2 rushing touchdowns (14,2)  & 154 receiving yards, one receiving touchdown(75). Here is a great play that he made last Sunday. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xn5oMhjAghs PFH's Defensive Player of the Week is Lamarr Woodley.  Woodley was a hard pick, because there was a few people on this defense that could have deserved the same honor. Well this is one good reason why I picked Lamarr Woodley http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zXOludGK_bo. This guy is one reason why that Steelers defense rolls like it does.

   PFH's Offensive DUD of the Week is Vince Young. With only 66 passing yards, 2 passing interceptions, and a fumble, Young couldn't get anything done against that stingy Steelers defense. Take a look at this punishing hit given to Vince Young http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X5Qw0Rvc1wk&feature=related Young ended up getting benched late in the second half. PFH's Defensive DUD of the Week is HEAR ME DARRELLE REVIS! What a slouch that Randy Moss is. What a slouch Revis was when he sat out that entire offseason and got beat by Randy Moss on this graet catch! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X2gM-op5sUU Yeah Revis has a hammy, but don't call Randy Moss a slouch, you never know when he will come back to bite you!

   Lets do this again next week guys, comment and leave your questions!!

Week 2 in the books!

   Now that all of the great games from this past weekend are over, lets recap!

   The Steelers-Titans game was a very good game. Temperatures at game time were very hot, but that didn't stop the Steelers from playing great defense against Chris Johnson and the Titans. Holding Chris Johnson under 40 yards the Steelers defense helped prevail over the Titans. This play from Polamalu is the PFH's Defensive play of the Week. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6DyzASDVpwU Now here are a few videos of the Steelers-Titans game. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ALKq43Lhqz0 & http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ryn_HkHGh5c

   The Redskins-Texans game was another good game. Early in the game, it looked liked the Redskins had the game, but they let the Texans hang in there and let them get the victory in overtime. Look at this great catch by Andre Johnson in the end zone. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FdC8U_AIjS8 Matt Schaub lead his team back, both quarterbacks did good. Look at the highlights if you missed it! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UuFUHHBOkXA Andre Johnson has PFH's Offensive Play of the Week.

   Like I said in my first post, the Lions-Eagles game was a very good game. Mike Vick showing that he has what it takes to still be an NFL Quarterback. On the other side Jahvid Best showed that he can be a very good running back in this league. Both teams scoring in bunches as the Eagles just got the win. look at this great play by Lions running back Jahvid Best. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xn5oMhjAghs Here are the highlights if you missed the game. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e0rjAlVMGTM

   Here are a few games that I liked this past weekend. I hope you enjoy this new post! Look at my new post of PFH's Offensive Player of the Week & Defensive Player of the Week! Also PFH's Offensive DUD of the Week & Defensive DUD of the Week!

Week 2 on the Gridiron

   There are some great games this weekend. I am looking forward to seeing a few of them. Lets take a look at some games, and I will express my opinion on what I would like to see this week.

   The first game that I want to see this week is the Steelers vs. Titans. I think that it is gonna be a close game with Dennis Dixon at Qb for the Steelers. Now if Ben is starting, then I say the Steelers have a bigger chance of winning. My pick to win this game is the Steelers. Now I know a lot of people are picking the Titans after their very good performance against the Raiders in Week 1 last week. Both teams have a very good battle ahead of them. The Steelers defense has to worry about Chris Johnson. That is the biggest task for the Steelers. If the Steelers defense can stop the run, then they have a huge shot at winning the game. The next task for Pittsburgh is to get a good game plan on offense, and execute. Consistency is a huge thing in this game for both teams. The Titans need Chris Johnson in this game. Last year only having 58 yards against the Steelers in the season opener. Vince Young has to complete his passes. So many things to look for in this game. That is why it is the first on my list. My Pick = Steelers

   Another good game that I am gonna have to watch is the Bengals vs. Ravens. Both teams could use a win this week. The Bengals of course are in a bigger need of one, but these two teams like to talk, and I am sure that you have heard there has been talking. Who else would it be then Chad Ochocinco. Chad has been talking about the Ravens defense. Well from what I seen last week, I would keep my mouth shut Chad. The Patriots had a riot against the Bengals last week. I am not saying that the Ravens looked impressive last week either, but they stayed in there playing a tough Jets defense getting the win last week. Both teams need a win so they are gonna do everything that they can do to get one. My Pick = Ravens

   How about the Lions vs. Eagles? This should be a good game. Michael Vick getting another chance to start for a team because of the Kevin Kolb concussion. Vick looked impressive last week, for what he did. Passing for over 170 yards and rushing over 100 yards as well, against the Packers. Lets see how Vick will do this game, and it could lead to a Quarterback controversy. On the other side the Lions are furious about last weeks game as well they should be. I think Bears fans will tell you that was a catch. If the Lions really want to show that they are mad, they come out and pounce on the Eagles. With Stafford hurt how will the Lions do in the passing game? Lions defense needs to focus on Vick, and that means stop him. I am from Detroit, but momma didn't raise no dummy! My Pick = Eagles

   How about a really tough pick. Colts vs.Giants. This is gonna be a good game as the Manning brothers will have a show down. This game can be a shoot out, but is the Giants offense a type of offense that can have a shoot out? I expect this game to be very close. Peyton will pass for many yards I think, but I don't know if that can make up for how bad that Colts defense looked last week against the Texans. Letting Arian Foster have over 200 rushing yards. If the Giants run the ball with Bradshaw quite a few times, it can lead to the play action, and Eli Manning could have a good game passing as well. Peyton needs to get out and score early if they want to win. Very tough game to pick. My Pick = Giants

  Okay guys that is a few things to look for in Week 2. Have a good time watching the games this weekend. Ask questions, leave comments, and tell me what games you are looking forward to seeing, and tell me all of your picks!
