2011 NFL Season

Newton is now 5 yards off a 400-yard game. Even against the lowly Arizona D, that's a hell of an achievement.

[Maxx]

Especially when you consider he had 5 weeks to learn the offense and adapt to the NFL.

[naiwf]

He's also got more total TDs than Jimmy Clausen had last season.

So do I

In an effort to say something positive about the abortion that I just watched, maybe the Giants will finally get rid of Coughlin at the end of this season. If that's all they're going to be playing with this year, then they will be heavily involved in the Andrew Luck sweepstakes.

That squawking sound was Ted Ginn breaking the Seachickens' collective necks.

[Maxx]

So in his first NFL start, on a team that won 2 games last year, Newton breaks the record for passing yards in week one by a rookie, breaks the Panther's franchise record for passing yards in any game by a rookie, ties the NFL record for passing yards by a rookie in any game and ties Clausen's TD total for all of last season.

But yeah, that's only a little impressive, right?

[Berober]

Please, if I don't see a 600 yard game I'm not going to be impressed by Newton

[Meacon Keaton]

I'll be happy to admit Cam had a hell of a game. I wonder if Arizona just went in with no idea for a game plan against them or if they just expected them to run Williams all the time. Or if they're really one of the worst defenses in the history of history. No way you should be giving up that kind of yardage to a rookie who hardly had a training camp.

I'd hate to hear what they sound like now...

[naiwf]

I'd be more impressed if the Panthers had won. Newton needs to be more like Flacco or Sanchez. [/sarcasm]

Ted Ginn just raped and pillaged Seattle's special teams again. The Niners are now 6 wins away from clinching that division.

[mystikz]

Tedd Ginn just took a kick 102 and then took a punt too, scoring almost as many points as the whole Seahawks team. crazy.

and yes, I'm obviously biased against Scam. I hated Clausen even more though. we'll see what he does next week.

wuts special teams, coach carrol?

[Dan]

That squawking sound was Ted Ginn breaking the Seachickens' collective necks.

And then he nailed a punt return. Wow.

The sizzling of frying canola oil, I'd wager, because Teddy just fried dem bitches up extra crispy.

[SilentHitman]

I'm gutted that the Colts got blown out and the Panthers lost by a yard but at least Cam played a great game. Yeah I know it's week 1 against the Cardinals but I'm one of those guys that just believes he'll succeed so it's nice to see him doing it. I know he has a lot of detractors but I hope he has a great career down here and continues to represent NC with pride.

[Berober]

Question. Even though I'm (hopefully) holding my ground in discussion here, I'm still British. Since Carolina are based in North Carolina, generally, do South Carolina cheer or boo the Panthers?

Also, I think we figured out what the 49'ers stand for nowadays. How long it takes for the Seahawks to collapse. (Y)

[Meacon Keaton]

I'd imagine the younger South Carolina fans like Carolina. But they've only been around for a decade and a half. I have family in South Carolina and they're diehard Falcon fans.

[naiwf]

I hope that Harbaugh continues to run it up against Carroll and annoys him every chance he gets.

[gunnar hendershow]

Jim Harbaugh has always had Pete Carroll's number.

Cam Newton played great, I was on the fence about him and still am but I'm closer to leaping over into "This guy can actually play" territory. One week representation, as impressive as it is, is still a one week representation.

It's gonna be a long year for Giants fans everywhere.

If the Chargers don't make Tolbert their primary back next week, then Norv Turner is insane.

I'm just saying, he threw an interception and good quarterbacks never throw picks. You know who never threw picks? Brett Favre, and he's the greatest of all time. Do the math, guys.
