The 'Boys, Vikes, and 9ers in must win.............Surprise teams try to go 3-0 in WEEK 3

We already know how it goes in the National Football League. After a few games there are surprise teams that are undefeated and teams that are win less. Week 3 has a few teams that are in must win scenarios while other teams, and a few surprise teams, try to keep it rolling. Here are the WEEK 3 match-ups in the NFL:

SUNDAY SEPTEMBER 26
1ET

1. TITANS @ G-MEN: Both teams come in 1-1 and come off of losses. Titans faced the best Defense in the NFL, the Steelers, and couldn't get anything positive going. G-Men went to Circle City and the Colts opened up a can and had time to take them to the wood shed. HOOKEM' VY has to bounce back as well as CJ28. As for the NY Football Giants they need to get back to establishing the run and make it easier for the other Manning to chuck it around the yard.
WINNER: TITANS

2. BENGALS @ PANTHERS: CINCY got back to playing defense first and a heavy dose of RB Mr. Benson to get by the Ravens. They needed that kind of game to see what their identity really is. Carolina has QB Jimmy Clausen starting this one against that Bengals D not a chance. Cincy's D and Offense will start to click in this one.
WINNER: BENGALS

3. THE 'BURGH @ NEW SOMBRERO: BUCS QB JOSH FREEMAN has done everything right so far this season. But he will probably not face a better defense in the league then the Steelers. Pittsburgh leads the NFL in turnover Differential at +6 which equates to winning football when a D is getting TO's like that. Old Man Charlie Batch will have to come up big in his first true start in years. But Steelers D and a heavy dose of RB Mendenhall will prove to be kryptonite for the Freeman and the Bucs.
WINNER: STEELERS

4. BUFFS @ PATS: Buffalo still has not found a signal-caller they can trust. The defense is sound but knows it almost has to put up a 0 for their team to win. Pats and Brady coming off of a loss to rival jets. Back home and seeing the Bills is a welcome sight especially with recent retired BILLS DE Aaron Schoebel.
WINNER: PATS

5. BROWNS @ BMORE: RAY RAY AND them have had two tough battles with Jets and Bengals on the road. Now they welcome Lil Debbie Snack Cakes Brownies into Charm City for a Homecoming game. Holmgren has to still change the culture over there and they are undoubtedly a work in progress. Flacco won't have many games like last week and either will Double R Ray Rice. Fans find another game to watch.......really
WINNER: RAVENS

6. GOLD RUSH @ ARROWHEAD: Who would've thunk this scenario 2-0 vs 0-2 except its the Chiefs that are the 2-0. Coach Singletary and the boys gave a valiant effort against the Saints Monday Night but came up short. This will be tough for the Niners to win at a all of sudden tough place to play. Matt Cassell has done a great job of basically managing the games and having defense and special teams come up big. This is a tough one but...............WILL THE REAL 9ERS PLEASE STAND UP!
WINNER: SAN FRAN

7. DALLAS @ RELIANT STADIUM: ANOTHER 2-0 VS 0-2 with the Cowboys being on the other end of the stick. Look in any sport you play there has to be LEADERSHIP at a high level plain and simple. The BLUEDUDE wonders if the 'BOYS have that and some heart. I guess we will find out. Texans are really rolling and may have figured out how to not only win games but closing them also is a process. #80 and #8 are clicking on all cylinders and that Texans D led by SUPER MARIO, MR. RYANS, AND BERNARD POLLARD are becoming a top notch D in the league. We will know after the first quarter who will win.
WINNER: TEXANS

8. LIONS @ TWIN CITIES: If anything, with the Twins clinching the AL Central and the fans going crazy at new TARGET BALLPARK this past week, Vikes should carry some of that energy into a one-sided affair in the Metrodome. Favre and company will have time to figure out this one or do they need help............GIVE THE BALL TO ALL DAY #28 AND GET THE HELL OUT OF THE WAY.........LIONS HAVE NO STAFFORD BUT WILL PLAY TOUGH AND HAVE BEEN UNDER COACH SCHWARTZ. Speaking of new Target Ballpark, where in the heck is the VIKES NEW DIGS?
WINNER: PURPLE PEOPLE

9. DIRTY BIRDS @ BIG EASY: A "BACKYARD BOOGIE" if THE BLUEDUDE ever saw one. Two teams that don't like each other and analysts have been saying that the Falcons might finally win this division. NO PERIOD Although I think A T L is playoff bound, Saints are too much for them in the DOME. The Saints needed a tight one like that last Monday vs Niners and will be more than ready for the Falcons. QB Matt Ryan can make a statement as well as that Falcons D if they pull it off.
WINNER: WHO DAT?

4:15ET

10. REDSKINS @ THE GATEWAY ARCH: Coach Spags has starting to change the culture in the LOU and with a soon to be really good, young QB like Bradford, things are looking up. But not this week with Shanahan and the 'Skins coming to town and letting one slip at home last week to Texans, they will be prepared for the rams you would think. Too much Donovan and 'Skins secondary in this one.
WINNER: REDSKINS

11. EAGLES @ JAGS : THE MIKE VICK EXPERIENCE IS BACK AND IN FULL EFFECT. The Eagles look like they had an extra get right to them when #7 was back to his old tricks. Jags in disarray and come off a bad loss to Bolts which led to QB Garrard getting benched.................Del Rio , Garrard, and etc. will all be benched after week 17 you get the picture.
WINNER: EAGLES

12. INDY @ INVESCO: Very good match-up between to teams who have an identity and are starting to play well. Another test for Manning and the Colts Defense to really see where they stand in the AFC. QB Orton and the Broncos have been getting it done with good Old fashion Josh McDaniel's Football.................YEAH WHATEVER J. McDaniel's Football.
WINNER: COLTS

13. OAK @ CARDS : WAIT.......................DOES one really care about what happens in this game?.......Bruce Gradowski makes his first start of the season over the Jim Plunkett-like QB Jason Campbell.......Al Davis u need some help dawg...
WINNER: CARDS

14. BOLTS @ SEATTLE: Rivers and the boys didn't need #83 last week but we will see back on the road if they need him this week. Chargers are JEKYLL AND HIDE, week to week, game to game, okay enough said. Hassleback and Hawks see if they can compete with the elite teams in the NFL . A good barometer for the 12th zone and the Hawks.
WINNER: BOLTS

8:20ET

15. NYJ @ M I A: This is a tricky game for the Jets becoming off a must win home game situation after week 1 loss to Ravens. Sanchise, at least that's what they call him in NYC, played with some pocket poise and presence vs Pats last Sunday. The ground game still is not been as good as Rex would want it to be. But the defense will show up every week. Dolphins are coming off a surprise win over the Vikes. But you ask Sporano and his gang they will probably tell you it wasn't a surprise to us. The defense is really tough especially in the trenches. But the Dolphins might have to make a move at QB. QB Chad Henne struggles at Minnesota with inability to throw down field. Chad Pennington is waiting in the wings and ready to rescue an offense that right now is one dimensional at best.
WINNER: DOLPHINS

SEPTEMBER 27 2010
8:30ET

16. THE PACK @ MONSTERS OF THE MIDWAY: The NFL needs this one now and with both team 2-0 it is a big match-up with the vikes reeling a little bit. The winner here will at least be two games ahead the vikes and a one game lead in the division. QB Rodgers is tough and still have not been tested since they lost RB Ryan Grant for the season. They will be tested vs the new look Bears D that has some bite to it. QB Jay Cutler is taking hold of Offensive Genius Mike Martz offense and all of a sudden the Bears have what? PLAY MAKERS ALL OVER THE FIELD. The most interesting match-up in the game is Dom Capers Defense vs Mike Martz Offense. ARE YOU READY FOR SOME FOOTBALL?
WINNER: THE PACK

Week 3 will be a telling week for a lot of teams and the direction these teams are probably headed for the season. A team can't start 0-3 and expect to be there in the playoff hunt in the end. And we will also see what Surprise 2-0 teams can keep the magic going. I know one thing is for certain THE PARITY IN THE NFL IS ABOUT 16-20 TEAMS DEEP and every game is a must win game to get to the LOMBARDI.

WEEK 4 BIG GAMES
RAVENS @ STEELERS
9ERS @ ATL
'SKINS @ PHILLY
NE @ FINS
