    The Cowboys won three Super Bowls?

    1993, 94 and 96, with the same roster core.

    Twice with Jimmy Johnson and once under Switzer, yeah.

    As for the Browns, lets not forget how shitty of an evaluator Michael Lombardi is. Outside of Mingo, none of the players they drafted this past spring are coming close to sniffing the field. Not even a fourth round CB. Meanwhile they lead the league in UFAs on the roster, and more of them are playing than the players they drafted. At this point the franchise could move to Jacksonville and fight with the Jags for the market and most fans wouldn't care.

    I am really liking Andy Reid's Chiefs, with their quarterback who does just enough.

    Also we were all blown away by Week 1 Eagles, but it could be that the Redskins just suck that bad.

    Eagles score, go for two, find out NFL defenses react more quickly to the swinging gate than Nicholls State does.

    I would have played one game with a deep threat, Morgan, pulling safeties deep to see what Richardson could really do. Anyone who thinks the Browns got an accurate picture of what Richardson can do in the last two games with no real passing threat, I think is mistaken.

    He's going to tear it up in Indy, and the Browns will keep drafting Courtney Brown and Tim Couch.

    The Rams gave up on a power back from Notre Dame about 20 years ago. Sort of worked out for the player and team he went to.

    Retired McNabb's number? He's a douche, Philly hated him and he was only an above average QB.
    To get your number retired you should lead your team to a championship, die young or be an AllTime great and a team lifer.

    It really surprised me how few numbers the Eagles have retired.

    Well hey if it worked out for one team 20 years ago it will work now for sure.

    Most teams are not dumb enough to trade franchise backs in their second season.

    I know it only resulted in a field goal, but I LOVE that 15-play, 75-yard drive by KC to take 8:15 off the fourth quarter clock to push the lead to two scores.

    And for the second week in a row, the go-go Eagles are going to finish with fewer offensive snaps than their opponent -- at the 2:00 warning, it's KC 74, Philly 61.

    Time of possession: KC 37:26, Philly 20:34.
