Still, I can understand why Fisher waited to pull KC. After last year’s season, it was reasonable—up until the New England game—to think that the team could and would play better with KC at QB. Up to the point where KC was 2/12 for -7, I was in agreement with Fisher that KC wasn’t the problem. Play-calling and Defense were much more obvious targets.

That said, you just cannot let a guy go 2-12 for -7 and keep his job. They’d already had an accountability problem in the organization, and that would have made it untenable.

That comment by Johnson would be right up there with Bob Griese’s taco comment.

What an asshole.

The bad news is that our defense gave up almost 200 yds. on the ground (doing something that slightly resembled tackling….guys…we’ve got to get that corrected!!)….the good news is that we finally figured out how to score more points than our opponent….hey Vince…in the words of Dion Sanders….“just do what you do, baby!!”….and major props to CJ…LUV to see him in the open field!…LUV YA BLUE!! 10-6…here we come!!P.S.-Hey T-Rac…I’m starting to be able to picture your Kenny Stabler on my bookshelf.

it’s pretty weird in a division typically known for peyton and defense, but the AFC south has the top rusher in the NFL, CJ, the 2 most prolific QBs in the NFL, schaub and manning, and the 2 most prolific receivers in the NFL, johnson and wayne.

How stupid do the people at EA Sports look…

… when they badly underestimated CJ’s abilities when ranking him for Madden 2010?

They better not make that stupid mistake again next year…

It was Vince’s last(?) opportunity to show that he belongs in the NFL and he came out swinging.
I’m no stat guy but as he ever gotten a higher passer rating and/or no INT games? I’m assuming he has but wasn’t sure.

Mega props to CJ. He (literally) left it all on the field yesterday. The guy is a true phenom.

And a question if anyone can answer, where is Jared Cook? I thought this guy was going to be a stud right off the bat. I saw him catch one ball yesterday. Any word or insight?

heimerdinger’s head is apparently no longer in a dark, dark place. maybe having VY play forced him to keep it safe, and if so let’s hope it stays that way. 49 rushes, 18 passes. that’s A LOT more like it.

the secondary is back from the dead. 323 yards for Garrard in game 1, 139 in game 2 and a couple picks to boot. Hood should keep Harper’s spot the rest of the way, and it was great to see Finnegan and Fuller back out there.

chris johnson, nuff said. but even bigger was the fact that lendale got meaningful carries for the first time this season. what the hell took so long? keeping the passing game simple and running the damn ball actually works for us, who knew?

and of course, Vince. he looked poised, he looked in tune with the game plan and other than the INT he almost threw, he was exactly what we needed. if we can have a guy that can take care of the ball, a la kerry last year, and who can pull the ball down and move the chains when necessary, that’s plenty for this team to win. vince and lendale were a huge part of getting our first big time of possession victory this season. while it’s way too soon to pass any judgment on the VY reunion tour as a whole, I’ll take what he gave yesterday every single sunday. VY as a playmaking game manager sounds good to me. now let’s see how he looks on the west coast without a bye week.

Chris Johnson is just incredible.

comment about Fisher’s job being safe is bullshit.

I’m kind of torn here because I want to see Vince do well but if Vince leads us to enough Wins, we may get stuck with the Jeff “I just wanted to feel like a winner” Fisher for another season, and maybe two.

I did NOT like the Manning jersey incident. That was simply mind blowing how he thought that could be a good idea. I don’t care if he did it for the humour, it was poorly timed and the words he spoke along with it made it very tough to swallow. Other than that huge blunder, Fisher has been a solid coach. My opinion of him may change in about 3 more games, we will see.

First off congrats to CJ that was one hell of a game that he had.

Defense looked good despite the two long runs, it seemed like everyone was flying to the ball, there was something called “Pressure” on the QB i think I heard of that before but cant be sure LOL. and Rod Hood is much better than Harper.

VY looked poised throughout the game, yea he had one bad pass that could have turned out as a pick, but it never bothered him which in the past I think it would have. I like most of you am not ready to call him our savior, but I will take his stat line anyday compared to what we have seen. He truly played to what the D gave him and managed the game.

Coaches, finally put together a gameplan that made sense Congrats.

It sure makes a difference when qualtiy people return to the line up on defense. There were a ton of 3 and outs and pressure to Garrard, like none we have seen this season.
