Packers Pop Strugging Browns

By Ross Everett

The Green Bay Packers used 21 second quarter points and three Aaron Rodgers touchdown passes to easily dispatch the punchless Cleveland Browns 31-3 on Sunday. Rodgers threw two of his three touchdowns during the second quarter onslaught, adding a fourth quarter tally for good measure. Ryan Grant added 148 yards of rushing and a touchdown in the victory, in which the Packers dominated the statistical battle.

NFL football betting enthusiasts who laid the -8' with Green Bay as road favorites cashed their tickets with the lopsided victory. Green Bay improved to 4-2 against the NFL pointspread while the Browns dropped to 3-4 against the number. The 34 points scored went UNDER the posted total of 41'. Cleveland has gone UNDER in four of seven this season, while Green Bay evened their NFL totals record at 3-3.

The Packers upped their intensity early in the game, after quarterback Aaron Rodgers was punched in the face during a scrum. He recounts what happened next:

"One of the linemen came over and said, 'Who was it? We got your back. That means a lot to me and that means a lot to our team."

David Bowens was the perpetrator, though he insisted he was simply playing hard:

"I was just trying to grab anything I had. It wasn't malicious, I was just trying to get a stop. I apologized to him for it. He can call it what he wants to call it, but the refs didn't call it. I'd treat him different if he was passing the ball, that's different. But if he's running the ball, he's a running back. It's called football."

Browns' quarterback Derek Anderson lamented his team's struggles in postgame comments:

"We aren't good right now. That's it. Period. We haven't executed. We haven't done the right things to win ballgames. We haven't run the ball effectively, thrown it where we needed to. We haven't protected up front like we need to and caught it when we need to."

Head coach Eric Mangini sounded a similar tone:

"It's a very disappointing performance across the board. I don't think we played very well. I don't think we coached very well. I thought we were making progress in a lot of areas. I don't think we showed that today -- at all."

The Packers now face a big game next Sunday against the Minnesota Vikings which will feature Brett Favre's first return to Green Bay in a visiting uniform. The Packers are a -3 home favorite with the total set at 48. They'll face the struggling Tampa Bay Buccaneers the following week before hosting the Dallas Cowboys on November 15. Cleveland will travel to Chicago for a game against the Bears next week, with the Browns installed as a +13' road underdog and the total set at 40'.

Insurance For Young Drivers And Civil Law Suits

By Jerry Dodd

It is not every day that we buy a car, and though it is a fact that car is a necessity and not a luxury any more, we do not change cars often or go for new ones at the drop of a hat. Moreover, maintaining a vehicle and an auto insurance policy and also the premiums that go with it, are no mean tasks.

One of the expenses in owning a vehicle is car insurance. Car insurance is required by the law in nearly every state in the US. If you are a young driver, it is often difficult to obtain car insurance in your own name. This is because most insurance companies feel that young drivers are involved in more accidents than older more mature drivers. The insurance companies further feel that young drivers have a tendency to drive beyond the posted speed limits. Even though it is difficult to find, there are insurance companies that are willing to quote rates for young drivers.

If your child is a teenager and is keen on taking the vehicle on road, you must consider buying an auto insurance policy in his name. To this extent, you may conduct a study on various vehicle insurance rates and also a research on commercial motor insurance companies and their policies in order to decide on an affordable policy for your child.

Before insurance companies will issue a policy to young drivers, they will obtain and confirm information about the vehicle, including the model, serial number and the safety features the vehicle includes. The insurance company may also ask about the educational background of your child, because students who excel academically are often given discounted rates.

Apart from what has been mentioned above, the auto insurance companies also verify if the young driver has a good driving history, even if it is a brief one, and whether he has been issued tickets. His insurance policy rate will come down if there is no blemish in his record.

Although some insurance companies will not accept young drivers as customers, there are many auto insurance companies that are willing to tap into this market. They are looking for the best customers for the company, though, and require that the young drivers meet their standards and requirements.

Let us assume that your youngster was involved in a road accident for no fault of his and the mistake was entirely on the part of the other driver. You may claim the payments for the repair works etc., from the insurance company, which will be settled in line with the agreement in the policy.

In addition, if you do not feel that you have been adequately compensated for the damage to your vehicle, or your child suffered some minor injuries, or you have suffered mental anguish due to the accident, you still have the option to file a civil law suit. In the civil law suit, you may try to sue for damages to property or damages for injury. Law suits cost money and take lots of time, so you must be patient to see one through to the end to see justice.
