[quote]Steve Smith active (11:31 a.m. ET): Jeff McLane of the Philadelphia Inquirer reports that WR Steve Smith (knee, probable) is active. He's probably not going to play a full set of snaps in his first game back, but his progress bears watching, considering how quickly he has returned to the field. Keep Smith stashed on benches, particularly in PPR formats, and track him closely.[/quote]

Do what? They were talking about this guy being out for about 4-6 weeks in the regular season. How is he active for week 1?

Arian Foster is [URL="http://espn.go.com/nfl/story/_/id/6957706/arian-foster-houston-texans-vs-indianapolis-colts"]out[/URL] vs. the Colts. Gotta love how all week he implied he was going to play and he still got shut down.

Re: Around the NFL week 1
 

It'll be a slobberknocker in Baltimore. NFL kicks off with a bang this week.

Re: Around the NFL week 1
 

That moment of silence they just showed on espn when they panned around the league to all the different stadiums.... Brought up some tears.

Re: Around the NFL week 1

Re: Around the NFL week 1

The Rams seem to be the sexy upset special this week, not sure I agree but it would be nice.

Re: Around the NFL week 1

I'm on my 2nd one.

Unbelievable.

Re: Around the NFL week 1
 

The Rams are fired up against the Eagles. Also, it seems that even with a dream team, Andy Reid still doesn't know how to use the clock.

Some things never change.

Re: Around the NFL week 1
 

Lol @ eagels. They just got gutted on the first play....ouch.

Re: Around the NFL week 1
 

DirectTV is the worst. Comcast and DishNetwork are better IMO.

Damn, Steven Jackson looking like his old self. Vick struggling.

Re: Around the NFL week 1
 

Rams game plan looks great.

Re: Around the NFL week 1
 

I have DeSean Jackson on my fantasy...but he's one pompous mofo. Every play he has to hot dog.

Re: Around the NFL week 1
 

absolutely beatiful playcall for the Eagles touchdown. Andy Reid can still draw up and call great plays.

Re: Around the NFL week 1
 

He's the best at drawing them up. I don't think there's a better play caller in the NFL.

Re: Around the NFL week 1
 

Suggs just planted Big Ben...gave up the ball. Baltimore knocking heads

Re: Around the NFL week 1
 

Steelers are being taken behind the woodshed so far.

Re: Around the NFL week 1
 

Matty, your dish working yet? I'm on my 4th reset.

Re: Around the NFL week 1
 

Damn DAMN DAMN. Eagles lucky play. He should have just gone down i guess.

I agree. But DTV has something that the others don't on football Sundays.

all my receivers work fine except for the one in my computer room where I like to watch football. I reset it, it works fine for maybe 30 seconds then freezes up.

Re: Around the NFL week 1
 

Flacco is a fire right now. I'm not sure why people think he's so bad...

Re: Around the NFL week 1
 

And just like that Steven Jackson is sidelined with an injury.

[quote=Lotus;833371]I agree. But DTV has something that the others don't on football Sundays.[/quote]

I know you don't live in the local market, but for those of us who do, DTV is a waste of money. I pay $49.99 for RedZone channel and let it ride. Loving it right now. Zero commercials, too.

And thats why I stay away from him in fantasy leagues

Damn, someone tell Kansas City the season has started. At home getting spanked by the Bills

Re: Around the NFL week 1
 

Mike Vick looking very average right now.

The Colts too. Oh wait, Manning isn't there for them. ;)

Re: Around the NFL week 1
 

I think Peyton absence might have some negative impact on the play of the Colts.

They're down 24-0 to Texans. Ouch.

Re: Around the NFL week 1
 

Man, Bradford's receivers are killing him...both figuratively and literally. The are dropping passes left and right.

Or just shows how lame that team actually is without Manning...hmmm, one has to question whether Polian is actually good at getting talent....
