After the Buffalo Bills and the New York Jets played one of the most mistake-ridden games (the Jets had 20 penalties) in NFL history last week, the defending Super Bowl Champs show up at Ralph Wilson Stadium today. Although the point spread for this game is only 3 1/2 points, I expect the Bills to lose by a couple of touchdowns. The Bills’ secondary is riddled with injuries. The Bills defense gave up over 500 yards of offense to the Jets last week–and the Ravens are a lot better than the Jets. It’s shaping up to be a long, long season for the Bills. How is your favorite NFL team going to do today?
The 3-0 Saints meet the 3-0 Dolphins tomorrow night in the Superdome for Monday Night Football. So by Tuesday morning, one of those teams–and I’m hoping it’s the Saints–will be 4-0.
Deb, the Saints will have a tough game against the rising Miami Dolphins but I think the Saints will win.,
I think the “Skins will get their first win today. They showed a bit more life last week and-hey-they have to get one sooner or late.
Still have no faith in the Jets despite their 2-1 record. They probably lose today.
Randy, the Skins need to win today or they’ll be buried in the NFC East for the rest of the season. The Jets almost gave last week’s game to the Bills, but the Bills couldn’t snatch Victory from the Jaws of Defeat.
The 0-3 Giants at the 3-0 Chiefs?
Don’t even ask.
I have a bad feeling about the Seahawks – Texans game today…
Jeff, Andy Reid knows how to beat the Giants.
Rick, the Seahawks have a challenge today playing the Texans. But I think they’ll win.
Btw, today is the last day of the regular baseball season and the Anerican League Wild Card teams have yet to be set because three teams are still in the running. I’m actually glad the Saints aren’t playing today so I have a chance to watch the Rangers (one of the potential Wild Card teams) without having to cut back-and-forth to the Saints game. Of course, depending on how the other teams in contention do today, there might be a one-game playoff tomorrow night, probably at the same time as the Saints game!
Great comeback by the Seahawks, Rick.
I was hoping the Bills would hang on. What an upset!
The Giants’ offense is just pathetic at this point. They stayed in the game for three quarters but the lack of an offensive line meant it was just a matter of time.
Deb, I think that 1-game Playoff game is scheduled for the afternoon.
Jeff, the Ravens vs. Bills game was a real nail-biter! Where would be be without Kiko Alonzo! The rookie LB had two interceptions today!
So much for your career as a sports prognosticator, GK. I was so disgusted with the first half of the Seahawks game I switched it off (daughter came to visit so that was part of the reason). I was glad to see the Bills win and elated by the Seahawk comeback. Best yet, the hated Stealers are 0-4. Yowzah!
While I’m at it, may I announce that my blog has been resurrected. Go to and see what all the shouting is about. Thank you all.

Bob, Bills fans are stunned by the unexpected win over the defending Super Bowl Champion Baltimore Ravens!
