We all know the hooded figure on the New England sidelines is a great coach. Now that Bill Belichick is no longer tethered to Tom Brady, we'll see just how great. ... The Lions started four former Bucs on defense at Atlanta (NT Chuck Darby, DE Dewayne White, CB Brian Kelly, SS Dwight Smith) yet still managed to surrender 474 yards to Tampa Bay's next opponent. Detroit defensive coordinator Joe Barry doesn't seem to have any answers when the Lions hit the road. ... Let's just admit it - the Cowboys have the most talent in the league. ... A 10-point win in San Francisco is a decent start, but I'm not buying into the Cardinals until they beat a good team on the road. ... Every time you watch Drew Brees play, you appreciate him a little more. ... The Jaguars have a heck of a time beating Tennessee because the Titans are one of the few teams that match Jacksonville's physicality. ... Disgraceful effort by Cincinnati's offense at Baltimore, averaging 3.1 yards on 50 snaps. ... Texans owner Bob McNair keeps waiting for a breakthrough season, but Houston just can't play with the big boys. Still, DE Mario Williams, LB DeMeco Ryans and WR Andre Johnson can play with anybody. ...more

Just as he did a week ago in New Orleans, Bucs coach Jon Gruden took an aggressive approach to his play calling Sunday. Faced with a fourth-and-2 from the Texans' 34 just 4:36 into the game, Gruden decided to go for it. He ran Earnest Graham up the middle, but just as defensive end Mario Williams had done one play earlier, safety Will Demps stopped Graham well short of the first down marker. That allowed the Texans to take possession and 12 plays, 66 yards and 6:19 later, they took a 7-0 lead when Sage Rosenfels hit Andre Johnson with a 4-yard TD pass. ...more
