Someone took a one-hander while holding off the CB for Dallas last week. I forget who. Was a nice catch but wasn't in the end-zone so didn't get much highlight coverage.

Hanging out for Bears v Packers and Bucs v Falcons this week.

Hakeem Nicks it was Afro

Nicks plays for the Giants? I didn't watch the Giants game. I'm pretty sure it was Miles Austin.

Maybe that was the week before. He made an awesome catch that's all I remember

I'm still pretty impressed with some of the catches Steve Smith made last week. If Panthers can get a running game together, Newton can be a real threat in coming seasons.

Could the Warriors get any more help from the ref tonight? :lol:

Yeah, and now they're in the Superbowl.

Yeah, paying attention so much I did what Joffa has done half a dozen times. Hanging my head in shame.

Not sure what to make of the predictions for the bears v packers match.

I said during the week that Pats v Bills would be a shoot-out, and that's exactly what it was. 34-31 to the Bills.

OT win for Detroit and they stay 3-0, quality second half performance there to roll the Vikings.

Somehow the 49ers came out on top against the Bengals despite not entering their offensive half until the 7th minute of the third quarter :?

Good to see Cam Newton direct the Panthers to his first win in torrential rain in Carolina.

Giggity.

Solid win by the packers. A fair few dodgey calls going both ways there. The holding call right at the death against the Bears was the worst though, no idea what was going on there. Greg Jennings got off to a flier in the first quarter but he didn't seem to get up to much for the second and third quarters.

HUGE game by McFadden for the raiders in their 34-24 win over the jets. Slightly surprised by that result.

Cruisey wins for Baltimore and the Bucs.

Still in shock Brady threw FOUR turnovers. I had a feeling the Bills would finally land a win this weekend, but to do lose after leading by so much and Brady unraveling like that...it's hurts even more.

On the flip side, I think Brady's gonna be wanting to make amends for this. Watch out for his next match methinks.

The Bills cover was superb. Brady is indeed mortal though. The Pats had to lose sooner or later. But that was their 15th game in a row over 30 points IIRC.

Brady didn't unravel, the Bills just played a great game.

I'm shattered that I lost in fantasy because of Starks' fumble. Not impressed.

Romo's a pretty tough nut. Massive respect for him recovering his stock after the debacle of week one.

Romo really struggled to find the end zone this morning, but then one can't blame him with a fractured rib. I was quite impressed that he steered Dallas to a win there. It was more down to the inability of his WR's. They couldn't connect on a 1st and goal at the 2 yard line, which is really unforgivable.

Games to watch this weekend.

Panthers v Bears will be a huge game this weekend. Both sides need to consolidate form and the offensive line at the Bears has a lot of work to do and the Panthers could pull off an upset here.

Steelers v Houston will be two sides up against it looking to be on the cusp of play-offs, Steelers should pull one out.

Giants v Arizona will be a game of interceptions and fumbles with two out-of-form offences taking each other on.

Game of the weekend though will be Bengals v Bills. Bills are on a roll and the Bengals are looking for a reason to keep selecting Dalton and he should get plenty of chances to throw in what will be a pretty open backfield.

Winners: Panthers, Bills, Browns, Detroit, Houston, New Orleans, Minnesota, Eagles, Redskins (most boring game of the week), Giants, Falcons, Packers, Pats, Chargers, Baltimore, Bucs.

Matt Forte rushed for a massive 205 yards for the Bears as they left it late to beat the Panthers. Some big tackles late on from Urlacher.

Ben Roethlisberger is playing some terrible football at the moment, he's getting little protection and struggling to read the rush and it showed in their loss to the Texans.

Definitely interesting to see the Bengals getting up on the last play of the game. Detroit have kept it together too and come back from 27-3 down, picking Romo three times to win 34-30.

Packers go 4-0 with a huge performance from Rodgers for 408 yards, 2 rushing TD's and a TD thrown to all 4 main WR's. Stellar performance. He'd be bloody close to a perfect game if he hadn't been picked. 49-23 the highest score this season to boot.

New england have kept their record respectable,they've only lost 2 in a row TWICE since 2003 and deal with the Raiders 31-19.

Chargers and Falcons also running to script.

We're in for a nail-biter here in the Giants v Cardinals game.

Packers looking very good early. Rodgers looking MVP material at this early stage.

:D 3-1 baby

Rodgers is playing stunning football. His QB rating for the season is 124.5 so far. That'll go down when the weather cools and the ball gets a little more difficult to handle, but that's a massively impressive start to the season. Hopefully he keeps it up.

That call in the Gaints v Cardinals game was ridiculous. Giants were incredibly lucky to get away with that one.

How good was the last Q of the Colts v Bucs?!

Also....4-0 in fantasy!

2 and 2.

4-0 in Fantasy and the Titans are 3-1. Stoked.

Things will definitely be interesting when we meet in week 7 :-k

Titans have been interesting this season, no massive performances, but enough to get the wins. Could be a play-off dark horse.

Especially with the Colts and the Jags struggling. Our matches against the Texans will be massive towards who wins the AFC South.

The Texans will take out the AFC South, but I can see the Titans making a wildcard spot along with the Bills.

This might be a silly question, but can anyone tell me why Dallas are in the NFC Eastern conference?

Finally got a win in Fantasy :lol: Without a starting Tight end. Not quite sure how that happened, was fine when i last checked it.

Anyone play madden at all? I'll be looking to get Madden 12 again this year. Still playing the franchise mode of 11. Won 8 out of the 13 years I've been going :lol: Got a beast tight End by the name of Xavier Gates, caught about 88 TD's in 10 years. It's also great for lulz in regards to the player's names. Currently on my roster I have WR Takoby Kelly (34 TD in 4 seasons), CB Quantavanious McNeil and SS Demetrious Olabode.

I got Madden 12 on Xbox.
Outstanding game

I'm going to pick up Madden when I get a chance, but with a trip to NZ and FM coming out I can't afford it at the moment. Hanging out to play it though, for sure.

Im not buying Madden. No real changes from 11, bought FIFA12 last week and saving for away trips plus FM means money is tight.

The main differences between 11 and 12 would be the emergence of players like Matthews and Rodgers as 2 of the best players in the game.
