Here are some random thoughts from Sunday’s games:
*Frank Gore is going to lose his job if he keeps coughing the ball up. Sunday makes it four straight games now that the 49ers’ starting running back has lost a fumble. The guy has obvious talent when he’s running, but opposing defenses have made him looks silly at times this season. Grab Michael Robinson if you haven’t already. Sure I said the same before Sunday’s game, but Robinson’s stock just went up even more with Gore’s struggles.
*The Chicago Bears are for real. And if you took my advice and spent an early pick on the Bears defense like I suggested before the season started, you should be smiling right about now. The Bears schedule essentially has three or four bye weeks because it’s so soft.
*I played Santana Moss AND Roy Williams this week in my Bulletin Fantasy Challenge game. Tear.
*My picks this week were hot and cold, but I’m proud of standing by Lamont Jordan when CBSsportsline.com had him ranked out of the top-20 for running backs this week. Jordan proved me right and led all running backs (to this point) with 128 yards.
*For all you skeptics, Colston and Berrian proved they are for real. I told you to pick up Colston before the season started, but Berrian has even surprised me. Same with Rex Grossman.
*NFL officiating seems to get exponentially worse every week. Poor Torry Holt had a touchdown taken away from him even though he clearly had possession of the ball while crossing the plane. I was actually pleased with the call because I played against Marc Bulger, but there is no excuse for a blown call like that. And it certainly wasn’t the only bad call Sunday.
*The biggest mystery in the NFL right now has to be the Jaguars defense. How can they look so good against the Colts one week and so bad against the Redskins this week?
