Sunday NFL: Week 2 | Game Day Blog

So I thought Jake Delhomme couldn't have played any worse than the past Sunday and I was optimistic that the Panthers would defeat the Falcons... I was somewhat right. Jake only threw one INT and was pretty impressive the 2nd Half of football even though he couldn't lead the Panthers into many scoring oppurtunities. Also DeAngelo Williams fumbled the ball today... Just to give you a clue of how often that happens among the 1,500 Yards and 18 TDs he scored last year not one carry resulted in a fumble nor one reception nor any other play.

Take a look down below. An asterik (* - just in case you don't know what that means) indicates a score that I wrongly predicted (meaning I predicted the other team to win. I went 6-8 on my predictions... WTF? I couldn't have had a worse week but hopefully the Colts and the NYG win.

Scores from around the league:

Tennesee vs. Houston (Texans win 34-31)*
Washington vs. St. Louis (Redskins win 9-7)

Top Performances:

QB: Matt Schaub 357 Yards on 18 completions with 4 TDs
RB: Chris Johnson 197 Yards with 2 TDs
WR: Andre Johnson 149 Yards with 2 TDs
Defensive Player: (TBA)

Frank Gore had a great day with over 200 Yards on the ground and 2 TDs to match those of Chris Johnsons' but his near 40 Yards on the receiving end weren't enough to top Johnson's 10 receptions with 149 yards and 1 TD. Kurt Warner would have been selected for the Top QB position had he stayed in the game for longer.

NFL Week Rating: 5.0. Another great week with great storylines including the Jets-Pats game with Mark Sanchez and Rex Ryan leading the charge. Amazing performances by Frank Gore - Chris Johnson - Marques Colston - Andre Johnson and Matt Schaub... Monday Night Football should be a good one. Some great plays too including quite a few from Gore - Colston - Johnson and the other Johnson a nice 81 Yard TD Catch and Run by Darren Sproles. But we're going with a one handed TD from Schaub to Johnson as our play of the week...
