Not looking at the hint or answer(trust me :) ....):

I know the "other" game was between Denver & Minnesota in the MetroDome.
I remember because a Denver back (Steve Sewell?) had his foot completely
turned around! and missed most, if not all of the rest of the season.
(funny I don't remember the prime game)
My guess -- Twins in the World Series?

  Derrick didn't play until the 3rd preseason game.  His yards per carry

I thought that I saw it in the Sporting News about 3-4 issues ago...it
stated that Kerwin Bell had been waived...

	That guy had one great game in his pro career...and he also wore
the helmet cam that day (helmet-cam debut).  Since he was the backup to
Scott Mitchell this year in Orlando, and Scott Mitchell is the number 2
guy in Miami, it didn't surprise me to see him cut...it did surprise me
to see that he had even been on a NFL team.

This weekend on ESPN SportsCenter, Shell told the media in a "once-and-for-

added, "for the next four weeks."

Although I can't for the life of me figure out why.

There is no way that the Cincinnati team, an AFL expansion team would agree to 
being moved to the NFC Central. Plus, this eliminates the big Cinci-Cleveland, 
Cinci-Pittsburgh and Cinci-Houston rivalries which are big in the AFC Central 
since every team right now hates every other team in the AFC Central. Remember 
the Cincinnati running up the score game against Houston in 1989. This shows 
how strong the hatred is in the AFC Central.

Well, like I said, he pulled a groin muscle in the first quarter of the
Atlanta game.  He didn't get much of a chance to warm up his arm, but
as you saw there is no problem with the knee.  Something like 74-yards
rushing in less than 15-minutes.  The Eagles next and last preseason
game is on Thursday against the Jets.  That would have given Randall
only 3-days rest.  There is no reason in the world that he should play
that game.  He will have all next week to work on his game against the
Eagles defense in practice.

Arkansas Fred is injured.  Williams just signed last week so he didn't
play against the Falcons.  Keith Jackson is still unsigned.  But there
is still Dixon, Green, and Sydner for Randall to throw to.  And don't
forget Byars.  Not only coming out of the backfield, but also lined up
at the TE position.

The OL isn't the greatest, but they have improved with each preseason
game.  And why should Herschel want to risk any injury during the
meaningless preseaon?  Let's wait to see how he performs for real
before critisizing the guy.

>         Atlanta popped some good runs over old 99's position.  Look for

Must have been watching a different game?  When the Birds had their
first string defense in there, Atlanta did nothing on the ground.  I
didn't see the entire game, but maybe after the Eagles rested their
starters the Falcons rushing attack might have picked up.  Remember,
Atlanta went with their starting unit the entire game.

> Eric Allen/Ben Smith will be sorely missed against good passing Os.
> And where was Byron Evans in the Falcon game?  

Evans, like Williams, McMahon, Waters, and Ruzek, just signed last week
so he didn't see any action either.  IMO, Eric Allen will be signed in
time for the season opener which will solidify the secondary.

I'm not one to defend Buddy Ryan, believe me.  But, Ryan cut Cris
Carter from the Eagles for reasons other than football.  I don't
know exactly what it was, but some very reputable sports reporters
here in the Philadelphia area have talked about this, while refusing
to disclose specifics.  I don't know if this reason is known around
the league or if the Vikings know of it.

If you want to talk about stupid moves the Eagles have made in the 80's
you could fill a book (start with the Ron Solt deal and don't forget the
Marion Campbell era).  But, the Carter cut was not what it appeared to
be on the surface.  Also, it wasn't technically in the 80's, Carter was
cut before the 1990 season, if I recall correctly.

While Buffalo is the most talented team in this division, hands down...
I expect them to have trouble this year.

I predict either Miami or the Jets will give them a run for the money.
(NOT BOTH).

The other team (of Miami or Jets) will find themselves around
.500... and battling with NE for the third spot.

Indy will Improve, but don't expect miracles.

I Don't expect anyone from the AFC EAST to go to the SB.


Questions... Everybody has high expectations of the Jets?
	     will they be able to live up to them?

	     Buffalo... losers or what seems like the last 100 SB's...
             will frustration set in? will teams be able to controll
             the hurry up offense?

	     Miami... Nobody will take a stand for them... they are
             "third". Can they put a consistent season together?
	     Can they even beat N.E.? 

	     New England... Can spunky coach MacPherson get his team
             to .500 only two years after the horrendous 1-15 season?
             Everyone expects them to do no better than last year...

	     Indy... written off for 2 wins... which is pretty harsh...
	     any team that wins less than 3-4 games is not playing
             up to it's potential, and probably has problems... look

   Is LT the all time Sack leader????????

I believe that he is, but sacks are a very recent statistic.  Bubba Baker
tore up the league during his rookie year in Detroit in the late 70's, but
none of those sacks early in his career show up in his career stats.

The reasons the Chicgao Bears gave for waiving Maury Buford and keeping
Chris Gardocki were 1) Gardocki is 23 2) Gardocki can kick off, spelling
Kevin Butler who can't do this well anymore, thus saving space on the 47-man
roster.
    Buford said this was his best training camp ever. His average was about
    43, Gardocki's 36-38.  Buford asked the Bears to try to trade him first,
    but  when that didn't work he got his release early so he could get 
    another try with someone else. I haven't heard if anyone claimed him.
    I hope Gardocki works out. He was injured last year. His kickoffs were
    OK, but so far his punting has been subpar. Special teams have been a
    weakness the past couple of years; I hope this move doesn't hurt them.
      What I think will hurt is the Hilgenberg deal to Cleveland. Rumor has it
      here that the BEars will receive no more than a 4th round pick.
      Jay said for $50 K more he would have signed (Bears' final offer: $850 K)
      Jim Harbaugh says he feels more comfortable taking snaps from Jerry
      Fontentot. Hmmm....At least Tom Thayer can go back to Right Guard.
