NFL Week 4 running thread

The Raiders are blowing out the Brownies, 21-3. Um, wasn't this meant to be Cleveland's bounce back game?

 

Crazy week, huh?
the peerless price touchdown is humiliating to the minnesota defense.

 

Looks like a possible Mike Utley-type incident for the Lions, ironically again against the Rams.

A rookie guard fell to the ground on a kickoff as if he had been shot in the head.

Touchdown, Chosen One.

 

The Arizona-Atlanta game bothers me. Now I have to give serious thought to replacing Kurt Warner, and I could have picked up octogenarian Morten Andersen, which now seems to make a lot more sense.

 

Man... give Maroney rookie of the year now.

 

Is Caldwell still alive?

 

And the Browns take the lead!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

Fixed.

 

Raiders play at the 49ers and Jets and have Arizona, Houston and St. Louis at home.

The have no shot of beating anyone else.

2-14 at best, possibly 0-16.

 

Clearly No. 5: Of 32 teams in a league, to be playing the one where you last had a guy paralyzed is quite contrary to what might have been expected.
