Worst of the Worst - Week 3

Carolina's Offense - What happened to the explosive offense Carolina had last year? What happened to the amazing highlights from DeAngelo Williams and Jonathan Stewart? Williams only had 11 carries in the Monday night game against the Cowboys. 11 carries? Did Jake Delhomme really throw the ball 33 times? I just don't understand what John Fox is doing anymore. The only way to limit Delhomme's turnovers (by the way... his interceptions against Dallas weren't even his fault) is to reduce the amount of passes.

The running game can open up the passing game and make Steve Smith the deadly receiver that he is. They didn't win the division last year because of Jake Delhomme. The running game is Carolina's biggest strength, but it was barely used on Monday night. 11 carries for DeAngelo Williams is unacceptable.

Ryan Mouton - There is no way to lose a game that is easier than giving the ball away along with great field position, and that is exactly what Ryan Mouton did... twice. After the Jets scored on their opening drive, Ryan Mouton fumbled the kick return on Tennessee's own 19-yard line. New York easily converted that turnover into seven points. In the third quarter, Ryan Mouton muffed a punt and the Jets recovered the ball on Tennessee's 23-yard line. The Jets put seven more points on the board and took the lead four plays later.

When you are 0-2 and desperately need a quality win to boost your confidence and to keep up in the division, fumbling the ball in your own territory is the last thing you want to do. New York converted two Tennessee turnovers into 14 points and won by seven. All Mouton has to do is catch the ball (he called for a fair catch). The Titans don't necessarily have to panic now, but Mouton definitely does.

Kurt Warner - In the opening home game for the Arizona Cardinals, quarterback Kurt Warner threw two interceptions. On Sunday night against the Colts at home, he threw two more. And one of the only things worse than an interception… is an interception in the red zone (the other thing that is worse is if it gets ran back for a touchdown). Arizona had the ball on Indianapolis's 1-yard line and Warner threw it into double coverage. The ball was tipped and then it fell into the hands of Antoine Bethea. Warner needs to be smart enough to know not to just throw it up there when you're in the red zone and down 21-3. Throwing it over 50 times is probably a problem too.

Honorable Mentions – Jim Zorn (it’s getting too repetitive), Seattle Seahawks (those uniforms were hideous), Eric Mangini (what was benching Brady Quinn going to fix?), Buffalo Offense (T.O. didn’t have any receptions…)- Michael Klopman

The Doctor is in...

Question #1: After week #1 and seeing how coaches are planning on using their players this year, are there any major changes to how you valued anyone prior to the season starting? – Maureen, Meriden, CT

Maureen: It is still too early to tell that, Maureen. There were some guys who I thought would play more (Donald Brown) and some guys I thought would play less (Cadillac Williams), but we need to give it at least 3 weeks before we start to see trends forming.

Question #2: Is the fact that the Bears lost Urlacher enough reason to waive the Bears defense and look for another one? – Stewart, Coronado, CA

Stewart: Not a chance. Lovie Smith will have those guys prepared and Tommie Harris and Lance Briggs will make sure that the team is fired up. I would rather have the Bears without Urlacher over the Lions with 12 players!

Question #3: Does Roy Williams get a bump in his value because T.O. isn’t there? – Ben, Buffalo, NY

Ben: For sure. The Cowboys are going to need Roy to step up and show the skills he once did in Detroit. If he doesn't, Dallas will be in some trouble because Witten is the only other serious threat there (with apologies to P. Crayton).

Question #4: Is Jake Dellhome in jeopardy of losing his job? – Daryl, Detroit, MI

Daryl: Hate to say this, but I hope so. He's a gunslinger with no bullets right now. He's making bad decisions and the team is losing trust in him. The running game is solid, but don't forget that Steve Smith is a fiery guy. The Panthers do not want him raging up and down the sidelines pissed off because Delhomme can't get him the ball. John Fox is a Parcells disciple--he hates the turnover!

Question #5: Is now the time to pick up Michael Vick? – Roger, Atlanta, GA

Roger: I would have said yes but then the Eagles went out and signed Jeff Garcia. With Garcia there and McNabb recovering a bit faster than expected, I think Vick won't get more than a start or two this year. If you can pick him up and stash him, you may want to consider that, but don't count on him for production this year.
