[#000000]Week #9. Yes football fans, it's true, we have reached the halfway point of the NFL season and as we approach Week #9, only two teams remain unblemished at a perfect 7-0. [/#000000]
[#000000][/#000000]
[#000000]With that being said, lets begin in Chicago, where the undefeated Bears used a 41-point first half to rout the 49ers 41-10, while Peyton Manning and the undefeated Colts used a second half barrage to overwhelm the Broncos 34-31. [/#000000]
[#000000][/#000000]
[#000000]Improving to 5-2, the Falcons, with the help of three Michael Vick touchdown passes, quieted the Bengals 29-27, while the Ravens got back on the winning track with an impressive 35-22 victory over the Saints. [/#000000]
[#000000][/#000000]
[#000000]The Giants upped their record to 5-2 as they used a smothering defense to down the Buccaneers 17-3, while LaDainian Tomlinson and the 5-2 Chargers ran wild over the Rams 38-24. [/#000000]
[#000000][/#000000]
[#000000]Scoring four touchdowns, Larry Johnson led Kansas City to their fourth victory of the season as the Chiefs outlasted the Seahawks 35-28, while the Jaguars improved to 4-3 as they shut down the Eagles 13-6. [/#000000]
[#000000][/#000000]
[#000000]The hapless Raiders got their second win in a row ... "Say it ain't so!" ... as they ... "Yes, it's true" ... beat the Super Bowl Champion Steelers 20-13, while the Cowboys and their newly founded "Romo", improved to 4-3 as they stunned the Panthers 35-14. [/#000000]
[#000000][/#000000]
[#000000]Finally, in the Monday Night finale, the 6-1 Patriots showed they are a team to be reckoned with as they dismantled the Vikings 31-7.
So city of Detroit, after a week of rest and a chance to clear our heads from our Lions rather "Slow" start, ARE YOU FINALLY READY FOR SOME FOOTBALL! It's time to strap it on, quit feeling sorry for ourselves, and darn it, it's time to start winning some football games! In short, it's time to "Put up or Shut up!" So as the second half of the season gets underway, it is crucial that our Lions start off quick, for the "Turnaround" begins this Sunday when we take on the Falcons and Michael Vick!, on a personal note, I truly beleive the lions season is officialy over, the only thing left is how bad of a brussin the rest of the leag will give them...
