I know Darin must be thrilled today with the Seahawks thoroughly dominating the 49'ers and making them look like a college football team last night. Colin Kaepernick tossed 3 INT's for the Niners and had a 'stellar' passer rating of 20.1, which I didn't even know was possible for a QB to score so low. Hell, Eli Manning tossed 4 INT's in the Giants loss to the Broncos and even he still had a rating of above 50.
Anyway, the Seahawks looked great at times, even though the 1st half was horrible. This is looked at as possibly the 2 of the teams to beat in the NFC, in addition to the Packers. After yesterday, I would say, FOR NOW, that the top 2 are now the Hawks and the Packers.
Aaron Rodgers goes 34 out of 42 for the Packers for 480 yards, 4 TD passes and no interceptions. Basically flawless in their convincing win over the Redskins.
The "Manning Bowl" turned out to be a blowout. While Eli tossed the 4 INT's, Peyton tossed 2 TD's and a completion percentage of 70%. The game really wasn't even close and the Broncos kinda routed the Giants.
Now my Steelers go to Cincinnati for a Monday Night Football game tonight. They let go their Pro Bowl linebacker James Harrison in the off season who signed with the Bengals. He might be looking to make a statement tonight. And if the Steelers play like they did last week, it could be a long night for them. Their only hope is to try and get a running game back and open up some room for Ben to pass the ball. They cut their leading RB at the end of the pre-season, but re-signed him this week after they lost one of their 2nd string RB's last week. That's Jonathan Dwyer who will get the nod running.
