WESTBROOK INACTIVE FOR SUNDAY NIGHT

Earlier today, we reported that Eagles running back Brian Westbrook would be a game-time decision for Sunday night's game against the Giants.

The game is still an hour away, and a decision has been made. Westbrook is inactive due to a stomach problem.

So if the Eagles plan to avoid going to 1-3, they'll need to do it without a guy who put up more than 220 yards from scrimmage in Week Three.

RANDOM OBSERVATIONS FROM THE EARLY GAMES

Every week at or about this time, we offer up a list of some of the things we've noticed during the first half of the early games.

The start of the Raiders-Fins game was delayed by lightning, and players were instructed to leave the field for safety reasons. Meanwhile, cameras captured images of a family sitting in the storm wearing plastic ponchos. (The extent to which the average American is oblivious to the dangers of lightning is almost as frightening as what lightning can do to an otherwise healthy person.)

No CBS HD for the Ravens-Browns or the Texans-Falcons.

When does an 0-3 team draw the No. 1 FOX announcing team? When they're playing the 3-0 Cowboys.

We're getting multiple complaints of bad officiating in the Rams-Cowboys game.

We didn't see this one, but apparently Tatum Bell showed a big chunk of his butt after his pants were ripped.

Curt Menefee made a lame-o reference to Milli Vanilli regarding the rain delay in Miami.

Discussing the plan to rotate tailbacks Chester Taylor and Adrian Peterson in Minnesota after the rookie from Oklahoma tore off a 55-yard run, JC Pearson of FOX said, "They should rotate them. Whenever Peterson gets tired."

Joey Harrington is outplaying Matt Schaub, so far.

Chad Pennington completed 16 of 18 passes for the Jets in the first half, but they're losing to the Bills.

The Browns are sticking it to the Ravens, and former Baltimore tailback Jamal Lewis has scored a touchdown against his old team.

The Rams offense looks horrible against the Cowboys; Marc Bulger has passed for 71 yards and rookie Brian Leonard has run for 31.

The Trent Green era might not last much longer in Miami, and linebacker Joey Porter could end up looking like an even bigger idiot that he already did if/when the Fins don't make good on his guarantee that Miami will be Oakland.

It wasn't perfect but hardly any glaring errors.

Sorry, I posted the wrong blurb in the original post. I did post that particular PFT blurb in another thread, tho.

Must be some serious stomach issue! Well that's good news for Kevin Curtis on my fantasy team. Not sure who to root for overall tho. Probably the giants, since the egals tend to finish seasons strong.
