The One NFL Game To Watch This Week
Normally, this topic would belong in the NFL forum, but for our purposes I think it will fit in here. The one NFL game I want to watch this weekend is Green Bay v. Dallas. We play the Packers on Halloween and I'm keen to see how they look against a team we should have beaten. I'm also keen to see what Dallas can do against the Packers, as that may provide some clues for us Redskins fans. In particular, I want to see how Vinny and his jets [wideouts] can exploit that terrible Green Bay secondary. [The Lions could not because both their starting wide receivers were out with injuries.] If ever there was a game for our passing game to come to life it would be against Green Bay.
For Redskins fans I believe Green Bay v. Dallas will be interesting viewing. The Packers are three point favorites and the prospect of seeing my least-favorite team in the world go down to defeat is always a tempting prospect.

Good game, I also want to check out the Giants/Lions game to see how good the Lions really are. If they get beaten by the Giants, they're not all that good. I'll also be checking the Philly/Cleveland game frequently to see if the Browns can pull off an upset.

I know what you mean. I'd like to see the Pack destory Dallass, but also to give us clues to destroy them a week later. I'm also interested in seeing the Philly game and if Cleveland can do anything against them.
Besides that I'd like to see my Fantasy team do well.

I too am going to watch the packers game. hopefully they will come out on top but not enough to where they have confidence that they can beat any team. I also am going to check out pats and jets, nothing to do with the skins but a battle of the unbeatens is always a pretty good game. as far as the eagles and browns, of course i'd like to see the browns win but I just don't think that is going to happen

Quite right.
BTW, I loved the Elton John reference.
For RR and IB, that's 'BBBenny and the Jets'.

these are the game that i want to pay close attention to. since my skins arent playing, i will be a huge, packer, lion, brown and bill fan on sunday! im interested to see how the jets perform against the pats. they are undefeated but they havent really played anybody. the eagles/brwons game will be an interesting one because the browns are 3-0 at home. they play alot better in cleveland and i think they will give the eagles a game.

I am more intrested in the Jets vs NE game to be honest. Both 5-0 and both in the same division. Should be a great game!

Packers vs Cowgirls
1) Brett Favre and Ahman Green are on my fantasy team. Can't go wrong with Brett.
2) Its the Cowgirls. Always a joy seeing them lose.
