Damage from other bullets also caused blot-clotting in his left leg, which forced the doctors to amputate. Collier and former Jaguar Kenneth Pettway were assaulted early in the morning of ... ncoolong@gmail.com (Neal Coolong) NFL 2008-09-30T10:18:38-05:00 http://www.realfootball365.com/articles/bills/12780 http://www.realfootball365.com/articles/bills/12780 Offensive linemen are like beer delivery guys: nothing fun happens until they do their jobs. The Buffalo Bills’ primary blockers displayed sloppy, tardy work in the beginning of Sunday's game in St. Louis, which in turn hindered the skill players. Despite starting off by killing buzzes in what should have been one long kegger of a rout, the line eventually got in line and did enough good work to ... avbialy@aol.com (Anthony Bialy) NFL 2008-09-30T04:47:04-05:00 http://www.realfootball365.com/articles/vikings/12779 http://www.realfootball365.com/articles/vikings/12779 Winning on the road in the National Football League isn’t easy, especially when you turn the ball over. Unfortunately for the Minnesota Vikings, giveaways were the story in last Sunday's 30-17 loss to Tennessee. The Vikings, who are now 1-3, lost three fumbles and threw an interception against the 4-0 Titans. Those four turnovers led to 21 points for Kerry Collins-led Tennessee. “I’m not going ... bonderman38@yahoo.com (Eric Krupka) NFL 2008-09-30T04:31:53-05:00 http://www.realfootball365.com/articles/niners/12772 http://www.realfootball365.com/articles/niners/12772 Although the New Orleans Saints vanquished the San Francisco 49ers, 31-17, in New Orleans last Sunday, the final score was deceiving. The reality is that the Saints really didn't beat the visiting 49ers; rather, it was the Niners' errors led to their second defeat of the season. New Orleans obviously capitalized on San Francisco’s mistakes, which is what a good football team should do. But the ... jeff.dickinson@yahoo.com (Jeff Dickinson) NFL 2008-09-30T04:29:20-05:00 http://www.realfootball365.com/articles/chargers/12777 http://www.realfootball365.com/articles/chargers/12777 It wasn't as pretty as his output in the first three weeks, but Philip Rivers showed Sunday that he has the moxie to roll with the punches. Rivers threw for 180 yards, a touchdown and two interceptions in his team's 28-18 win over Oakland. Rivers' stats weren't pretty, but he and the Bolts found a way to battle adversity and climb to 2-2. Commentary: Sunday's poor statistical showing was a ...

In a rare season that may be considered simultaneously disappointing and successful, the Oakland Raiders find themselves with a 1-3 ... os_davis@yahoo.com (Os Davis) NFL 2008-09-30T04:01:48-05:00 http://www.realfootball365.com/articles/jaguars/12774 http://www.realfootball365.com/articles/jaguars/12774 The Jacksonville Jaguars were on the better end of a 30-27 overtime decision versus the Houston Texans on Sunday, but running backs Maurice Jones-Drew and Fred Taylor were both held under 50 yards rushing for the third time in four games. The injuries to the Jaguars' offensive line have left little running room for the talented tandem. Commentary: If the Jaguars hope to make noise in the AFC ...

Judging by quarterback Carson Palmer's elbow injury, it may get even worse. Mark Curnette of the Cincinnati Enquirer quoted Palmer as saying "hopefully I'll play next week (at Dallas)." Scott Priestle of the Columbus Dispatch wrote, "Palmer said he hopes to play Sunday at Dallas, ... ncoolong@gmail.com (Neal Coolong) NFL 2008-09-29T18:33:36-05:00 http://www.realfootball365.com/articles/dolphins/12764 http://www.realfootball365.com/articles/dolphins/12764 The last thing an upstart Miami Dolphins franchise needed was a bye week. They’re coming of a 38-13 pasting of New England Patriots. They swept the weekly NFL awards, boasting the best offensive player (Ronnie Brown), the best defensive player (Joey Porter) and the best coach (Tony Sparano). And perhaps most importantly, the core of this young team, its offensive and defensive lines, finally ... info@realfootball365.com (Hugo Guzman) NFL 2008-09-29T04:39:42-05:00 http://www.realfootball365.com/articles/bills/12766 http://www.realfootball365.com/articles/bills/12766 Sunday's first half between Buffalo and St. Louis was the latter's Super Bowl, so hopefully the Rams' fans enjoyed Donnie Avery’s super-tricky score along with other gimmicks like Dante Hall’s reverse, his later passing attempt and a few plays without huddles. The hosts played well even when they weren’t fearful of running their regular offense, for a bit, but Buffalo checked the standings ... avbialy@aol.com (Anthony Bialy) NFL 2008-09-29T04:32:42-05:00 http://www.realfootball365.com/articles/saints/12770 http://www.realfootball365.com/articles/saints/12770 New Orleans running back Deuce McAllister ran for 73 yards and a touchdown in the Saints' 31-17 victory over the San Francisco 49ers on Sunday. McAllister's effort was his best since coming back from a knee injury that knocked him out of the 2007 season. Commentary: Saints head coach Sean Payton had been waiting for a sign that McAllister was ready to become the bruising back he once was. While ...

If nothing else and with damnable consistency, the 2008 Oakland Raiders appear to have this one answered: Both. Talk about your tale of two halves. In a rerun. For the second straight week, into the virtual recycle bin went my notes on a long-awaited “game ball” column.

The future Hall of Famer threw a career-best six touchdowns in a 56-35 win over Arizona on Sunday, improving the Jets to 2-2 and dropping the Cardinals to 2-2. The performance also continued his streak of consecutive games started, putting him at an unprecedented 257. Commentary: While Favre didn't mimic adversary Kurt ...

That's because the little-known New Orleans Saints wideout had a career game Sunday playing in place of the banged-up David Patten, who himself was filling in for the injured Marques Colston. Moore came into Week 4 against San Francisco with just 10 ... info@realfootball365.com (Hugo Guzman) NFL 2008-09-29T04:17:53-05:00 http://www.realfootball365.com/articles/falcons/12771 http://www.realfootball365.com/articles/falcons/12771 Atlanta Falcons rookie quarterback Matt Ryan threw for 158 yards in a 24-9 loss to the Carolina Panthers on Sunday, completing barely more than half his passes (21 of 41). In his first four pro games, the third overall pick from Boston College hasn't gone for 200-plus yards in any.
