Notre Dame Week and Post-NFL Thoughts

Belatedly, I'll offer my thoughts on this past weekend's NFL action.  Arian Foster of the Houston Texans helped to deliver the biggest win in that franchise's history by rushing for 3 TD's and running over several Colts in the process-this was a very impressive performance. I was personally impressed with a very mobile and quick-looking Michael Vick; it looks like the Eagles suddenly have a QB controversy on their hands if Kevin Kolb returns in time for this week, and indeed across the season.
 The Steelers were among several teams to grind out victories, along with the Ravens, who sent a strong message that the aging core of their defense is still a force to be reckoned with. The matchups between those two teams (in Week 4 and Week 13) should be knock-down, drag-out style rumbles, as always.
Closer to home, the Lions and Bears played an ugly game, with a controversial ending. In my opinion, the call at the end fits the rule-book definition, yet watching the play again makes me question their decision. Looking at the play at regular speed, it appears to be a touchdown. However, as a Bears fan, let me say I'm definitely not angry at the call!!

It's Notre Dame week for the Spartans here on campus-the atmosphere at Spartan Stadium should be electric as kickoff draws nearer-more on the game later this week.
In other news, I would highly recommend making a visit to Insomnia Cookies if you happen to be near East Lansing. The service is quick, the prices are fair, and most importantly, the cookies and other treats are delicious! Check back here for more on Notre Dame and my other thoughts later in the week.
