Jets are 1-0 after a lackluster performance today.  Thanks to Chad Morton ;D we won.

I'll second that what a good win for the Jets. I'm concerned about 3 things though for the Jets 1.) surviving the Month of December, 2.) Curtis Martin's injury 3.) the defense(which did not look good at all today.) As far as the other New York team is concerned how come the Giants cannot score a touchdown? Forget about Rutgers. Penn State is my team but they almost got beat by Central Florida.

Funny you should mention the Colts leaving the AFC East. As a New York Football Fan(Giants and Jets) I was so happy to see the Colts leave the AFC East. They used to kick the Jets butts twice a season. With that said I think the Jets play the Colts once this year. The Colts record against the Jets since 1989 is pretty dominating. Anyway's with that said the Jets got their butts whipped by the Patriots today.  The Giants beat the Rams today(yes, finally we beat the Rams.) It seemed like every year when the Giants and Rams met the Rams would always beat the Giants(in a route or a come from behind victory.) I'm sure some giants fans still have that Flipper Anderson catch stick in their heads from the 89-90 season. The Rams have always been alot trouble for the Giants since the decade of the 80's. If the Giants could ever score touchdowns on a consistent basis they could be a Super Bowl team. They have good players(Michael Strahan, Tiki Barber, Armani Toomer, Ike Hillard, Jeremy Shockey, and Kerry Collins has looked sharp this year.) Other highlights this weekend include Notre Dame beating Michigan, California routing Michigan State, and Penn State routing Nebraska.

Denver Broncos 24 Frisco 14!
End Quote

Broncos are looking good this season, playing much better than last year, even though they are lacking effort in offense, they are still getting it done, and their defense is pulling it out for their team. Broncos show heart, even if I wasn't a homer, I would still love the Broncos, due to the fact that they even though sometimes they have bad games and seasons, show resillience in their playing out on the field, and that is what I love about them, yes I do get frustrated with Griese, but who doesn't. I think in the end he will pull it off.
I am anxious to see the matchup this coming sunday between the Bills and the Broncos. Hopefully our team wins, if not cool too, because I also like the Bills. But my favorite team is the Broncos, so I am going to have to pull for them, the Bills are almost right behind.

Good point Sagnastian...I couldn't agree more!  Stupid "Little-Red" was given a share in '97 all because old man osbourne decided to retire.....I only consider Michigan the #1 for '97....not NU.  Also, to  be completely fair....I truly believe that un-beaten GA Tech deserved it alone in 1990.  CU should've been ranked 2nd.....now let's hear all the CornF*cker fans admit how many times they got a gift by being #1 when they didn't deserve it >:(

I remember 1988 when West Virginia had one of their greatest seasons ever, going undefeated, but being ranked behind a team with one loss (either Miami Hurricanes or Florida State) but at least they were paired up with #1 Notre Dame in the 1989 Fiesta Bowl.  Unfortunately, WVU QB Major Harris was hurt in that game and the Irish prevailed…

Yeah thats true Michigan should have won the National Championship without having to share it with Nebraska. How about that one year I think it was 1993 and Notre Dame beat Florida State and took #1 than a couple weeks Notre Dame got upset by Boston College. I still don't get it Notre Dame beats Florida State in a head to head game and doesn't even get a share of the National Championship. Highway Robbery!!!! What about Penn State going undefeated in 94 and not even a share of the national championship was given to them.
