Mike Bowser Projection's Review

Well gang the results from last week look pretty good - with the exception of my bold projection that the Bills offense was about to come to life. Their performance leaves even me speechless. OK, on to the results:

Donovan McNabb - Projected - 293 total yards - 3TDs. Actual - 294 total yards - 3TDs. (He just loves to pad his stats against weak defenses.)

Matt Cassel - Projected - 278 total yards - 2TDs. Actual - 281 total yards - 2TDs. (You can almost always count on the Cowboys D to give up a couple of TDs.)

Peyton Manning - Projected - 322yds - 3TDs. Actual - 309yds. - 3TDs. (Has anybody seen the Titans secondary?)

Kurt Warner - Projected - 311yds. - 3TDs. Actual - 302yds. - 2TDs. (Maybe if their offense hadn't gone to sleep in the second half he would have thrown the 3rd TD.)

Carson Palmer - Projected - 268yds - 2TDs. Actual - 271yds - 1TD. (Remember when the Ravens defense actually used to shut people down?)

Ben Roethlisberger - Projected - 274yds. - 2TDs. Actual - 277yds. - 3TDs. (Wins against the 0-5 Titans and 1-4 Lions, just aren't that impressive.)

Michael Bush - Projected - 37yds. Actual - 37yds. (Sorry AJ...)

Wes Welker - Projected - 81yds. - 1TD. Actual - 86yds. - 1TD. (Thanks to Tom Brady for missing a wide open Welker.)

Steve Smith - Projected - 73yds. Actual - 65yds.

Andre Johnson - Projected - 104yds. Actual - 101yds. (Yeah, I know I only projected 1TD and he scored 2.)

Glen Coffee - Projected - 81 total yards - 1TD. Actual - 67 total yards - 1TD. (If he hadn't been injured he probably would have made it to the 81 yard mark.)

There were a few other highlights such as predicting that Eli Manning would throw 2TDs and then head to the bench and that Braylon Edwards would score a TD in his first game as a Jet, but that's enough about last week - I need to get to work on Week 6....
