Week 3 of the NFL

Well after a great Saturday of college football, capped by a good game between Boise State and Oregon State, the NFL has followed with a strong showing of its own on Sunday morning.  This morning I had the opportunity to watch the Atlanta Falcons and the New Orleans Saints.  This game was exciting from the very beginning. Drew Brees and Matt Ryan both looked good with the exception of one or two plays.

Now I must admit I am not a Saints fan, in fact I cheared on my favorite team the Colts last year in the Super Bowl, but I must admit that team is strong, and once Bush returns they are just down right dangerous.  With that being said I love the Matt Ryan to Tony Gonzalez connection.  Gonzalez still looks like the stud that he is, and Ryan has been one of my favorite Quarterbacks since he was drafted out of Boston College.

I also got to watch parts of the Giants vs Titans game, and I was in awe of just how physical those two teams are.  I know the Steelers and Ravens are two of the hardest hitting defenses but the Giants and Titans hit hard on both offense and defense.  Neither Eli Manning nor Vince Young looked good but their running backs run hard and hit like a linebacker.

Well here are my Week 3 awards for the day.

My ‘disappointed for the day’ goes to the Texans. They couldn’t put a nail in the Cowboys coffin, but he the Texans are still the better team in my opinion.

My ‘surprise of the day’ goes to the Seahawks. Now the game isn’t over yet but they are playing well and beating the Chargers.

My ‘so close’ of the day goes to the Buffaloe Bills who nearly beat the not so mighty Patriots.

I’m going to add an extra category today and that is my ‘gosh dang it’ of the day. On my TV it listed the Colts vs Broncos game as being the 1pm game for me today but instead its the Seahawks vs Chargers.  I really wanted to watch the Colts.
