i have no pictures for any of these games, and i don't even really have very clear memories of them; a symptom of brutally cramming a game into my schedule here and there when i should have been sleeping after like 16 hours of work. sorry.
anyway, the eagles fell, as always with difficulty, 42-39. next up were the bengals, who made a fairly sad showing of themselves, but because bunting left the QB post early in the second quarter with knee bursitis and wesley jordan filled in by mostly getting sacked and throwing the ball to the other team, the game ended up being pretty close. 31-24 was the final, and it was 24-24 with about eight minutes left. seven of those eight minutes were a pretty intense back-and-forth midfield battle more reminiscent of a soccer game than a football game. then wesley dumped a pass over the secondary's head, and raymond scholl caught it and ran 80 yards for the winning touchdown. is it a coincidence that his name is one letter away from "school"? no. it's not. last to get mutilated were the steelers. this one was fairly sad until the end, the steelers doing a lot of nothing and finding themselves down 38-14 starting the fourth quarter. sadly, the "madden engine" kicked in, making the niners suck ass and allowing the steelers to get two quick scores. fortunately, 38-28 was the closest they would get, as they spent the last five minutes blowing deep-pass opportunities and getting their QB sacked.
10-1, next up is the cardinals, who we've already beaten 37-15 once.
bowes has 1433 yard with five games left...that means he needs slightly over 100 yards a game to break the 2000 yard mark for the third time in seven seasons. better get him some massive buckets of good and plentys.
