Good enough defense with a ton of no name guys on it, decent-ish offense that will fall apart whenever Jack Locker gets injured.

Jake Locker is still on the team. He might not be completely incompetent anymore I guess? But it's only a one game sample.



So, no is probably the answer you're looking for.

Mike Rodak from ESPN just pointed out a scary statistic for Bills fans this Sunday: http://espn.go.com/blog/buffalo-bills/post/_/id/13151/early-offensive-stat-differences-for-bills


Obviously the plays under pressure for Manuel have to be a fairly small sample size, but eep!
As long as he doesn't fold like that Brady chump the Pats trotted out last week did, he'll be fine.
Is it really that shocking that quarterbacks(especially young quarterbacks) tend to struggle under pressure? That's the whole point of getting pressure. Not even Tom Brady is great with multiple ~300 lb. men who want to flatten him in his face before every throw.
It'll be a big problem if they manage to control our running and short-passing game, that's certainly true.

Good news for you Rams fans. Michael Johnson and Adrian Clayborn, the Bucs 2 starting DE's will be out for the game. So starting in place will likely be 2 busts in DaQuan Bowers and Larry English backed up by the likes of Scott Solomon and William Gholston. This is going to be a rough game to watch.

Menelik got demoted, so the LT is Donald Penn and the RT is Khalif Barnes. Both Veterans who can hold their own (minus an automatic false start at some point in every game)

They have some pretty decent young WR's and Delanie Walker is not a bad TE. Their O-line is pretty good as well, defense is also good, Jurrell Casey is their new big money guy (DT).

But as others have said, Jake Locker gets injured a lot, and now that they don't have hasselbeck or the amish rifle, it's clipboard jesus or zach mettenberger for the save if Locker goes away again this year.

Is Penn good still, I know he was decent on the Bucs, and the Texans saw a lot of Barnes when he was on the Jags. I'm imagining that's (shaded over the RT and in between RT and RG) where Watt will be for about half to 3/4ths of the snaps he plays I would have to imagine.

The Cowboys can win on Sunday if they'd just run the loving ball more. The Titans don't have their two defensive studs from last year (Zach Brown and Verner), and no one on their roster jumps out as an immediate threat, offensively or defensively. In fact the Boys have a considerably soft schedule and could end up 9-7 if...IF Romo returns to last year's form.

Seriously, have a look:


There is a real possibility for Dallas to sweep the Giants and Redskins, and split games with the Eagles. Also, Houston, Tennessee, St. Louis, and Jax are very winnable games. The dline played very well against SF so it really will come down to Romo, and any major injuries that may occur between now and then.

And a couple of good young receivers. They're actually kind of a nice team if Locker stays upright/gets good and they get decent production out of the running game. Getting rid of Munchak automatically made them better.

Of course I could just be hoping they're better than most people think because they just destroyed the Chiefs.

If AP were still in I'd bump New England and Minnesota up, but yeah that list looks about right. It is probably a case of snot green tinted glasses coloring my vision, but I think Hawks and Chargers will be a good game.

Matthews being out is horrible for Atlanta and vicariously me. Not only is this a game the Bengals had a legitimate shot of losing but it looked like one of the most even and fun match ups of the week. I was really looking forward to this game until hearing about Matthews. Atlanta's poo poo tackles are going to give the Bengals a huge advantage.

Offense
The Qb is jake locker who has had a lot of injury problems but after being a not so good qb his first two or three years it looks like he is finally turning the corner and becoming an above average qb.

They run rbbc with shonn greene(he is rear end), dexter mccluster(bomb), bishop sankey(rookie back who probably wont get the carries he deserves), and leon washington(old).

The receiving core is pretty good with kendall wright, and nate washington as the reliable options and justin hunter as the explosive option(he is going to destroy your secondary). Also delanie walker as is pretty good all round tight end who can both block well and catch decently but still drops some.

The O-line is good so don't expect too much from your d-line

Defense
On the defensive line, Jurrel Casey is the man you are going to want to watch out for. If he is not double teamed expect him to either romo or murray to get hit behind the los

We don't really have anything special in our linebacker core with zach brown out... maybe derrick morgan.

The secondary consist of a bunch of young cbs (jason mccourty, wreh-wilson, sensabaugh), an over rated safety(michael griffin), and a patriot killer (bernard pollard). I'm not quite sure how they will handle dez but if I had to guess I would say dez will have a pretty good day baring romo making bad decisions

He single-handedly beat the Chargers a couple years ago while playing for the Seahawks. Mainly because the Chargers forgot how to play special teams that year.

Even taking those plays away, he was still a solid kick returner for the Seahawks for like 2 or so seasons. Dude had some serious talent, even after breaking his goddamn leg in a horrible way. Seahawks signed him after he broke his leg and rehabbed it and all, and he owned as a KR for the Seahawks for awhile.

Though, the fact that he was on the Seahawks is probably why he never got much press during that time. It was right at the start of Carroll's tenure.
