The rematch of the AFC second round playoffs with Denver hosting the
Oilers.  You guys better be ready, we have a score to settle.  I think
this could be one of the best games of the year.......I'm fired up for
this one.  The winner should be regarded as a team to challenge for the
AFC Championship.

I know this will probably get flamed, but- I think the Colts are a much
better team than people give them credit for.  In fact, I think they are 
better than half of the teams in the NFL!!  Consider the Colts front 
seven: they're big, strong and have a bad attitude.  Emtman and Coryatt 
are absolutley superb!  They will develop in Pro-Bowl players- and soon!
For a defense that registered a total of 29 sacks last year, they have 
racked up 18 sacks in just four games.  Consider that against Buffalo and
Houston they rarely blitzed- dropping into zone coverage instead.
Ok, Ok the offense is not all world; granted.  However, with Jeff George 
back, the offense showed new life in the 2nd half against Tampa Bay.  
Having a great QB will make the running much better- just check Johnson's
stats.  They weren't great, but it showed promise.  Given time and maturity
this team will flourish under Ted Marchibroda's leadership.  I'm predicting
a 9-7, or better, season.  Bring on the flames!

	The Cowboys did commit more than their fair share of mistakes, but many
(though certainly not all) were caused by the disruptive nature of the Eagle
defense.  When a defense THAT good is playing against you, you're going to have
to get rid of the ball sooner, you'd be panicked and many other things.  Aikman
made errors, but they were at last indirectly caused by the D, and if they
weren't then that's part of football, accept it, and get on with the season.

I have to agree, after watching them dismantle the Bengals last week (sniff).
The Steelers win in week 1 was over a team missing some key defensive players,
and now that the run-n-shoot seems to be clicking, I can't see the Steelers
competing with the Oilers.  I expect Houston to compete with KC for the AFC
title.  Please, no flames, Miami and Buffalo fans.  This is just my opinion.

I'd think there's a tie for worst all-time Super Bowl record:  all
the teams that have never been there.  I'd much rather have an 0-4
Super Bowl record than 0-0, as long-time losing teams like Tampa
Bay and Atlanta.

Yeah, any team that has lost to the Broncos away from Mile High in the last,
oh, let's say 4 years, just doesn't belong anyway (belong where?).  
Let's just label such a team a total loser for that period.  Even
worse, if they happened to lose to the Bronocs without Elway at the helm.
The mind boggles at just what such a team would be called.  Totally inept,
perhaps? Thanks for clearing that up for me Ed.

Regardless, pick Hall first.  He is a bona-fide TE who is *USED* well by
Testeverde.  Denver has a very sputtering offense, they win, but the
offense only produces points when pressed to the pavement.  Worry about
Sharpe only if you can't get Hall first.  There are others who I would
recommend ahead of Sharpe anyway.  Lets see...

Howard Cross NYG  *** Just below Ron Hall in my book
Adrian Cooper PIT (depends on Eric Green)
Mark Bavaro CLE  (could come on as Kosar learns him gets
                  hot-CLE seems to do that late in the season)
Terry Orr WAS

are a few that come to mind.  There may be more.  When I pick
players from Denver it's usually the kicker or a 2nd string
wide receiver, and I mean 2nd string ie the bench! :-)

Well, unfortuantely, he caught a few passes again - pretty good for a tight
end that isn't Pete Metzelaars or Brent Jones or Eric Green...and who has
only been with the team for a couple weeks.

I must say, having Keith Jackson on my stat team (at $9.50 where his
compatriots Andre Reed ($38.50) and Andre Rison ($35.00) flank him) is a
pleasure.

I disagree with this. The EAGLES have improved one area or another of their

This is the statement that annoyed me enough to post. Do **NOT** attribute
all of the hype created by the media to the team. The EAGLES as a team
spent 2 weeks downplaying the game. When the game was played, they were
methodical. There is only one "game of the year" as far as this team is
concerned, and that will not be played until January. No matter what
the media OR the woofing twits have to say.

     Curtis Duncan is a receiver for the Oilers.  To my knowledge, he did
not rush for any yards last year.  Perhaps you are getting him confused

True fans always want to feel like a part of the team...and fans are a
