Well, Week 1 was a typical Week 1. Lots of sloppy and low-scoring games with some exciting finishes. Week 2 is the week where teams finally seem to click on all cylinders and we can get a slightly better (though still not great) idea of which teams are gonna be fine, which ones won't be fine, and which ones may have had a bit of an aberration in Week 1, for better or worse. That is, unless the game you are watching will pit one team whose starting QB is concussed against a team whose starting QB separated their shoulder. For what it's worth, the Eagles still list Kolb as the projected starter on their website, though whether or not he will be medically cleared to play and start won't be known until Friday at the earliest. CBS has the double header this week, NBC gets the chance to felate over the Manning Brothers for 4 and a half hours, so without further ado here is the Week 2 schedule!

You may notice the Green Bay-Buffalo game is on in a small portion of California. The Chico, California affiliate is showing that game because Aaron Rodgers is from Chico.
ReplyDeleteI am going to take charge of the live blogs this week.
ReplyDelete@ 49er16: Aaron Rodgers still has a large enough fanbase there to get a Bills-Packers game? Impressive.
ReplyDelete@ SSR: It's yours.
@Justin: You don't realize how small Chico is. He's the only person from that town to make it as a professional athlete. I'm more surprised they don't show more Packer games.
ReplyDeleteThere will be no blackout in Detroit, so I can watch the Eagles kill the Lions without hoping for a RedZone live look-in.
