Week 5 recap

How 'bout them Donkos? Footlawl thinks they just might be the real deal this year (which they also were last year, of course) if Jake can be more "the Snake" than "the Mistake." So far he's 50-50, so we'll be calling him "the Missnake" until further notice. Their D, though... wow. They've only allowed one TD so far. I cannot wait to see them shit all over the Raiders.

Footlawl was 13-1 on the week (!!!) bringing us to 33-11 for the season. Let's take a look at some of the highlights:

First, Chicago put a hurting on Buffalo, shutting them out 40-0 for something like 58 minutes of play. Not too surprising.

Reggie Bush scored his first TD in the NFL yesterday against the Buccaneers who are now 0-4. Maybe by the time my berfday rolls around they'll have discounted customized jerseys so I can get one showing love for special teams linebacker Antoine Cash (#52). Bruce Gradkowski may have played well. I didn't get to watch much of the game, as I had to work, but according to the voice of the Bucs, he's "got icewater in his veins." I did get to listen to a bit of the game on my break, however. I tuned in just as Gradkowski threw his 2nd TD of the day and had to go back to work just as Bush scored. Coors should bring back the "Bitter Beer Face" ads and just show sideline footage of Chuckie Gruden, 'cause he's gotta be permanently squinted up by now.

Dear Indianapolis: Why on Earth was that game so close?

Dear Jacksonville: Jesus God, way to rack up 41 fucking points while allowing 0. Look, keep winning, please, but don't put up such gaudy numbers. I genuinely enjoy how you guys fly under the radar. I cannot express how much fun it is to remind people that you guys went 12-4 last season. "Jacksonville?" they typically say. "Really??" You guys could win the Superbowl this year and sportscasters would still forget about you come August '07.

Philadelphia did pretty much what they had to in beating the Christ out of Drew Bledsoe and shutting down TO. TO, as he does, is gearing up to complain about how the team he's on sucks and they don't utilize his talents and etc., but I wonder if he ever stops to think that maybe he's the reason teams he's on self-destruct.

And last but not least, the Steelers continued their inevitable fall from grace with an overrated, perhaps brain damaged, quarterback. And I just fucking laughed and laughed until a little pee leaked out.
