Norv Turner et. al.

Some observations after four weeks of football.

Norv Turner couldn't get laid at the Playboy Mansion. If Norv owned a funeral home, nobody would die. What were the Chargers thinking? I know Marty can't win the big one but hell Norv can't even get a team in position to compete for the big one. The Chargers are screwed.

I love Chad Pennington but at some point the Jets may have to make a change. I'm sorry but spirit and determination are wonderful qualities but you need a QB who can zip it in there. I don't mean a gunslinger like Favre or Marino. Montana didn't have a cannon, but if he had to he could gun it. Chad can't.

Speaking of Favre, I'm glad he's having a good season. Happy he has broken Marino's record. He's a great competitor and has been great for the league. That said, he is also incredibly overrated. He will soon have most interceptions of all time to go with his touchdown record. His confidence leads to mistakes and he no longer can overcome himself. This year he is playing it safer and it is paying off. Don't get me wrong, he's a Hall of Famer, no doubt but he is not in the league of Montana, Unitas, Elway or Steve Young. He is on par with Bradshaw and maybe Troy Aikman.

The Lions are for real. Just a hunch. I'm very nervous about this Sunday. Hope the Redskins know they are playing a 3-1 team and not the old Detroit Lions. BTW, if Gibbs doesn't have a winning season, it's time to hang it up.

Patriots are again kicking ass. Going to bed before this is over but damn the Pats are looking strong.

Finally, good to see Gus Frerotte still in the league. Good for him for hanging tough all these years.
