Quote of the day
"That's totally on me. I shook his hand too hard." -- 49ers head coach Jim Harbaugh, “apologizing” after a testy exchange with Lions coach Jim Schwartz after a dramatic 49er win in DetroitDaily blurb
It’s an odd day in the NFL when worst injury is to a head coach (Sean Payton – broken leg and torn MCL), and the most-hyped dust-up was between two head coaches (Harbaugh v. Schwartz).
Green Bay is now the only team with an unblemished record. Three teams are still lacking a win, although Miami has a shot to get it tonight against the Jets in New York Jersey. Not likely, but youneverknow…
Among yesterday’s starting QBs, Rex Grossman was the worst, with 4 picks, no TDs, and a benching. Jason Campbell was second worst, but we should give him a “pass” because he was knocked out of the game (and the season) in the 1st half with a broken collarbone. After those two, do you know who was the worst ranking starting QB of the day? Hint: His team won a big game, and he ranks in the top 10 in QB rating for the season. Second hint: His stats were 125 passing yards, 5 rushing yards, 1 TD, 1 interception, 1 fumble.
Answer (highlight with your cursor): Alex Smith, SF I’d have never guessed that.
I guess I should make some comment about baseball, but since we have until Wednesday before the World Series starts, I have plenty of time.
