Jacksonville @ Washington

This is what I'm stuck with as the early game.

This is why I love Red Zone.

I've got the Vikings/Patriots. Vikings drove down the field on their first possession quite easily in 4 minutes and took the lead 7-0.

Hurns just dropped a wide open TD.

Griffin just suffered a non-contact injury. Hard to tell from the replay if it's his leg again.

Edit: They're looking at his left leg. Replay looks like it's the ankle.

Jacksonville's offensive line doesn't look very good.

Yep Griffin carted off, smiling and waving all the way to the bank. That's why you never pay that much for a rookie... He was never the same after that playoff game against the hawks

And now DeSean Jackson has left with a shoulder injury.

Dang I picked Jacksonville for my pick today too. Had I know Griffin was gonna go down, I would have picked Washington. Rats!

There's busts, gigantic busts, and then there's RGIII.

And when you give up so much to get him, you have to keep playing him when he's "healthy" because giving up on him is pretty much the death knell for the GM and maybe coach. What a franchise-killer.

Yeah, I picked JAX today based on RG3's play as well. Oh, well.

He already killed Shanny's career.

So far I'm seeing no similarities between Jacksonville's defense and Seattle's.

I have Vikes-Pats also. The first drive they had Cassel with a bunch of rollouts and misdirection so the receivers were pretty open. Goodness though, after that he doesn't seem to be able to string together more than 5 throws without making a terrible, terrible decision. The first pick he failed to see the safety help, the 2nd pick he threw at Revis. I think on the 2nd pick his own receiver cut the route short because Revis had run the route better than the wideout, but still.

Pats actually got called for a pick play, nice. We would murder that offense. Bunch of picks and underneath stuff.

Edelman just tore up Minnesota on that drive.

Other teams will be disappointed with head coaches from the Pete Carroll tree. Similar to Belichick's underlings, they can be effective coaches, but overall identity of the team is Pete's. Especially on the defensive side.

Bradley, Quinn, nothing against those guys, but they leave and we keep on trucking.

It'll be a bit more interesting if some team taps Bevell. I mean Bevell isn't magic and he's not going to transform a team unless he can bring Russell Wilson, Lynch, and Harvin with him. Also, our offense will be just fine with someone else calling the plays. But there will be at least a little adjustment, unlike on defense where you don't even notice anything.

Wow, blocked figgie leads to 7 for the Pats, 23-7 now.

Washington looking like world beaters today with Cousins. Not sure how much of it is them and how much is the bad Jacksonville team.

Weird that Troy and Buck are doing the Dallas/Tennessee game... They usually announce the later game on Fox and one would think the hawk/charger game will be the better game...

When FOX doesn't have a national game, they always do the Dallas game.
