**** NOTES FOR EVERY GAME WILL BE UP AS SOON AS I WATCH THEM **** Bills 35, Bengals 20 You know how coaches are supposed to play their starters for a full half or more in Week 3 of the preseason? Marvin Lewis apparently didn’t get that memo. Carson Palmer saw one quarter of action,…

**** Unlike the Preseason Week 1-3 games, I did not watch all of these contests because some of them featured no starting players. I watched only a few games, instead focusing on Week 1 of the regular season. However, I’ve still compiled a write-up for each contest. **** Steelers 19, Panthers 3 The big news…

**** NOTES FOR EVERY GAME WILL BE UP AS SOON AS I WATCH THEM **** Titans 24, Cardinals 10 An hour before kickoff, Adam Schefter reported that Matt Leinart’s job is in jeopardy.

Chad Pennington began the game by targeting Davone Bess on his first three throws. Bess finished the game with two catches…

**** NOTES FOR EVERY GAME WILL BE UP AS SOON AS I WATCH THEM **** Vikings 17, Texans 10 The entire nation watched as Brett Favre took the field at Reliant Stadium. Fans were rooting for a long bomb. Detractors prayed for a pick-six. Favre went out onto the field, stood behind center, took the…

2008 NFL Preseason: Week 4 Because the starters saw very limited or no action this week, I’m not going into full detail in each contest. I’ll only list a few points. If you want more preseason analysis, keep scrolling down and read my Week 1-3 writeups. Seahawks 23, Raiders 16 Darren McFadden touched the ball…

**** NOTES FOR EVERY GAME WILL BE UP AS SOON AS I WATCH THEM **** Giants 31, Jets 16 Most coaches have played their starters for a quarter the first week of this preseason. The Bears and Browns went just one series. That’s pretty natural. Don’t tell that to Rex Ryan, though. Ryan had Mark…
