In the early games:
Jets beat Bills as expected 38-14. Sanchez and Tomlinson had big games, the Bills did not. Note to Bills QB Fitzpatrick, learn to slide when you run.
49ers remained winless with another tough loss this time to the Atlanta Falcons. 49ers had an interception returned and instead of having good field position with time running out, they fumbled the ball during the interception return which led to a late Falcons game winning field goal.
Ravens beat Steelers on the last drive of the game in a great defensive match up.
Saints win a close one against the Panthers, 16-14. Panthers rookie QB Clausen played his best pro game.
Denver Broncos defeated the Titans thanks to a huge game by Kyle Orton, over 350 yards, and the Broncos defense containing the Titans run game.
The Cleveland Browns won their first game 23-20 over the Bengals. Terrell Owens had a huge game, over 200 yards receiving, but it wasn't enough. What's happened to Carson Palmer?
Packers defeated the Lions in a close game 28-26.
The Rams beat up the Seahawks 20-3. The future in St. Louis looks bright with Sam Bradford under center.
In the Later Games:
Jags surprised the Colts with a late field goal, and won 28-31.
The Texans defeated the Raiders 31-24 behind another good game by Foster.
Chargers beat the Cardinals. Derek Anderson had another poor performance and was replaced by, Hall. This may be the end of Anderson in Arizona.
In the Eagles, Redskins game, Michael Vick was injured during a run. Kolb replaced him and couldn't do enough to get the Eagles a victory. Hopefully Vick won't miss too much time.
Another week and, 2 teams remain winless, the Bills and 49ers.
The Jets continue to look good, the Bills look horrible.
Carson Palmer doesn't look like the Palmer of old.
Fitting Ray Lewis got the pick to end the Steelers hopes of a comeback.

Donovan McNabb Goes Home Again & Eagles are Ready
McNabb will be a visitor for the first time at Lincoln Financial. The former Eagles QB, will be under center for the Redskins trying to get a victory against his former team.
McNabb will have a difficult time with the running game struggling, the offensive line shaky, and his receivers lacking big time talent except for Moss. It will be interesting to see how long the Eagles fans cheer their former QB.
Keys of the game:
Michael Vick must continue to play smart football. He has to resist the urge to try and show he's filled McNabb's shoes. The only way the Eagles lose this game, is if they turn the ball over.
The Eagles defense should be able to get pressure on McNabb. The Eagles have given up over 100 yards rushing per game, and will have to do better, as I expect Shanahan will try to establish the run game to take some pressure off of McNabb. With the Redskins averaging under 75 yards per game, rushing yards may be hard to come by, but they'll have to keep trying to have a chance to win this game.

Things We've Learned From Week 3 of the NFL
With most of the games of week 3 over, here are some things we've learned.
Michael Vick made Andy Reid look like a very smart man on Sunday, accounting for all the Eagles scores. The newly appointed Eagles starter threw 3 touchdowns, and ran in another. So far so good in Philly.
Sam Bradford is looking like a #1 draft pick, unlike another former #1 pick, see Alex Smith. Bradford led his Rams to an impressive victory over the Washington Redskins.
Another former #1 pick, Peyton Manning showed why he's the top QB in the league. Manning's favorite target this Sunday, Collie who recorded 171 yards and two touchdowns. Kyle Orton did his best to keep the Broncos in the game, throwing for over 450 yards, but with no running game, it wasn't enough.
The future in St. Louis looks promising. In the AFC, the Ravens, Colts, Patriots, and Steelers look like the teams to beat. The defense of the Ravens, and Steelers look unstoppable.
In the NFC, the Packers, Saints, Falcons, and Eagles all look strong.
Who would of thought, Michael Vick would be in the early running for MVP.
For some teams it's almost time to look at next years draft. Bills, Jag's, 49ers, will all need QB's, which explains why they're all struggling.
