I agree... but it's Favre, so???

Fantastic drive by the Colts at the half. I was cheering them on every exciting play. This game is shaping up to be what I had hoped it would be. Great stuff.

I remember Steve Grogan holding the Pats together in the Superbowl against the Bears after Tony Eason had his career prematurely terminated.

See the Boys have won again, and Favre looks like this is definitely his last season.

Gosh... I am reminded of past years... clockwork. All cylinders. If they stay healthy and the offensive front line can take on the big defenses, I see SB in the future.

Yeah, I know it's just another game but I gotta get excited about them... Grogan broke more bones that any player ever and I watched him do it when I cheered for the Pats as a lad. He didn't have the offensive line protection I see today.

Another one.... and another... laser passes and velcro hands from small receivers. And, The Belly backs it up in the red and calls a strike. Yes, I do believe that curve ball was called. Seen him call delay of game too or illegal motion and it worked, more than once. Genious coaching and call plays. I love to watch the mastery of The Belly. His is a fucking wizard.

HOW did Brady SEE that and thread that pass to Welker? How did Welker make that happen? That is amazing football. That is coaching and strategy... that is why Yankee football surpasses all other ball sports.

If the MVP is the guy who makes the most difference to his team, then Hines Ward must be the Steelers'. Would have been a completely different game if he'd been there second half. Big Ben didn't do too bad a job getting the ball to his receivers' hands - it's what happened afterwards that was the problem.

Dan... it ain't about Pitt... it's about the Pats' defense. Pats' offense can get by anybody any given night but their defense is certainly subject on the line and in shallow secondary... even the secondary and deep support tackling is doubtful at times. Not from a technical individual basis but on a coordinated basis. They just don't have the combination of braun and speed to back up containment in shallow or deep when they give up a reception... or run.

And, there will be receptions and runs, allowed by weakness in the front four, which will happen at some point in the game. Fact is, ya can't go back to the days of Brusci and... I'll stop there.

Now... will the GOT play? He is on injured reserve. And, he is Vinny ten times over. That may actually decide the game. Kick ball, get cheque!

I don't love it when passes are thrown into the dirt when there is no explanation why. Or when a fair catch is called and the caller doesn't even attempt to catch it. When I see such, play after play, I wonder if the betting pools are part of the coaching staff.

Now, I know that sounds like sour grapes, but, PLAY AFTER PLAY? And, calling a run up the middle on first down late in the "score" when a blitz is showing and you have just made incursions into the secondary that exposed a weakness? FFFFF*****ck ME!

Sorry for the rant... just be glad you were not here during the game. I get pretty loud when I see that shit. Even worse than when I see Kevin Martin choke on a brash call in the tenth end.

The Cowboys have more than enough talent at receiver. Austin, Whitten (TE), Roy Williams this year, the new kid Dez Bryant. They need Moss and his attitude like they need Rosie O'Donnell as a cheer leader.

If a couple of premier offensive linemen come up for grabs that might be a different story. But then why bother? With six losses they have almost no chance of making the playoffs even if they win all of their remaining games.

Cowboys would be better off shooting for the bottom, trading for picks and picking up a top 5 draft pick from their finish in the standings.

Nobody is making a move on Moss... I figured the Rams would have made a move by now IF they were gonna. I doubt if the other four will but ya never know. As for Dallas, well I don't think they have enough confidence in their replacement QBs to bother with ANOTHER great receiver. It's possible he will end up ??? I won't say it again.

And, I just read Merriman might be released today.

Whole lotta shakin goin on.
