NFL Week 7 Expectations
Now that we are six weeks deep in the NFL season, certain habits are starting to become apparent. Some of these are starting to wear on me, and I can see what may logically come next. With that, heres five things that need to stop in week seven, and five things that are likely to start.
1. Needs to stop - Comparisons between 1996 Brett Favre and 2009 Brett Favre. - I know he says he is just a "kid" out there, but he is old enough to be my Dad. He would have had to be very young when he had me but regardless, lets see how he looks in December.
Likely to start - Comparisons between 2009 Brett Favre and 1 (BC) Jesus. - The only difference is that Jesus didn't always have a tight spiral.
2. Needs to stop - Most markets refusing to cover Bengals games. - The Bengals are 6 for 6 in barn burners. Ochocinco is the best showman in the NFL. What needs to happen before we can watch these games?
Likely to start - CPR on Gus Johnson if he gets to call another Bengals game.
3. Needs to stop - Brad Childress' beard. - He looks like he went to a terrible version of the Rocky IV training scene. Only he is inexplicably dumber than Stallone.
Likely to start - Rex Ryan's diet. - He needs to drop a few or the Jets insurance company isn't going to let him run up and down the field anymore. He even eats time outs.
4. Needs to stop - The media flip-flop on Marc Sanchez. - Sanchez is a rookie. He is better than Matt Stafford. He brought you a win over the Patriots. Let him log a few weeks before you crucify him, you bloodsuckers. He's only human.
Likely to start - Drew Brees ascent to heaven. - Unlike Sanchez, that guy is not human.
5. Needs to stop - Consistently poor clock management and overall coaching. - Reid is carrying the torch this year, as Childress hasn't had an opportunity to blow a game yet. But give him time.
Likely to start - Jim Zorn's job hunt. - I think this is a shame. Washington forgot that you need good players to win, as well as a competent coach.
