2010 NFL Off-Season Thread

[JimBeam]

Dierdorf after Manning drops to the ground to avoid the hit but takes he loss of yards :

That may be the smartest thing Manning has ever done.

Really ?

In his 13+ year career avoiding a hard hit on a sack is the smartest thing he's ever done ?

He's never one avoided a big hit rom another good defensive player ?

Melodramatic much ?

[epo]

That was a great play.

And it probably was Baltimore's chance to get into this game.

[JimBeam]

Snoogans, the only thing I can think on that Ray Lewis hit @ the end of the 1st half is that their helmets actually hit.

I think if maybe Lewis gets more shoulder pad than helmet they don't call it.

Tough call.

And the Ravens are not good enough offensively to go for it on 4th down ever unless it's the 4th quarter and they need it.

UPDATE : Unless Manning's gonna throw a pick.

2nd UPDATE : Especially if Ed Reed follows that INT w/ a fumble.

[Snoogans]

from the other angle it looked mostly shoulder, but even still helmet to helmet is not a penalty unless its QB or DEFENSELESS receiver. If the receiver has the ball its not a penalty, just a fine

[Snoogans]

and im REALLY pissed at ed reed

[epo]

How much more is Ed Reed supposed to do?

[foodcourtdruide]

The Garcon plat on Reed was so amazing. That was probably the best football play of this post-season so far.

[foodcourtdruide]

How much more is Ed Reed supposed to do?

Seriously. Ed Reed is Baltimores defense right now.

[JimBeam]

Yeah sucks for Ed Reed.

2 picks w/ 30+ yards returned both negated.

I had guests during the Saints game and couldn't post but I hated that roughing the QB call on Warner.

Obviously it was the right call, as the rules call for, but it's kinda ironic that the same call was not made last week when the Cardinals benefited from it and won a game.

[foodcourtdruide]

Ok. We get it. Matt Stover has a history with Baltimore.

[JimBeam]

The Garcon plat on Reed was so amazing. That was probably the best football play of this post-season so far.

Huge play.

I'm partial and while his play might not have been as dramatic, and I'm personally not a fan, but Shockey seemed to be playing through some pain on a few plays for the Saints and helped them get back into a game.

Ed Reed may have 2 of the biggest plays that will go unrecognized.

[foodcourtdruide]

I hate shockey and his kidd rock gimmick, but I agree with you.

[foodcourtdruide]

Wow, Ravens offense was finally starting something. Huge turnover. Ravens only have 1 timeout left.

[foodcourtdruide]

McAfee may be the mvp of this game. That kick earlier from inside the 10 was great.

[Snoogans]

shouldnt they be passing?

[foodcourtdruide]

shouldnt they be passing?

They just don't have the offensive power. Ravens are just too one dimensional.

[JimBeam]

The Ravens' recievers, much like the Cardinals' receivers, aren't making the plays.

They may be small gains but in the big picture they'd help their teams chances.

[foodcourtdruide]

3 rushes for Colts. Take 2 more minutes off the clock.

[foodcourtdruide]

Wow, was I wrong.

[JimBeam]

I hate Dierdorf.

Does this win really prove that the Colts resting their players in the Jets' game made a difference ?

4 turnovers by the Ravens didn't help ?

He's a such a tool.

[underdog]

I hate Dierdorf.

He's a such a tool.

I think their defense definitely benefited from the extra time off, but that offense looked shaky a lot of the night. They're in trouble if they have to play San Diego next week.

[razorboy]

Yay, Baltimore beat Baltimore.

[foodcourtdruide]

Its so weird. The Colts are the only team that could win a game 20-3 and still get criticized for it.

[JimBeam]

I think their defense definitely benefited from the extra time off, but that offense looked shaky a lot of the night. They're in trouble if they have to play San Diego next week.

I'm sure it helped but to say emphatically, and to the point, that the rest in that game was why they won is complete hyperbole

Plus how many of the defenders that had big plays in this game rested in either of their last 2 regular season games ?

It's not like Freeney and Mathis had 4 sacks a piece in this game.

[TooLowBrow]

Two thirds of the Earth is covered by water. The other third is covered by Darrelle Revis.

[PapaBear]

Yay, Baltimore beat Baltimore.
I thought they beat Cleveland. The team that isn't in the playoffs. I'M SO CONFUSED!!!

[foodcourtdruide]

Two thirds of the Earth is covered by water. The other third is covered by Darrelle Revis.

That old gag.

[TooLowBrow]

That old gag.

I don't bet, but would have been rich, knew the Colts would win big


The Ravens are Jeckyl and Hyde, knew they would shit the bed.....

Gaines Adams...DEAD

Bears player Gaines Adams, 26, is dead, according to a report by the Greenville News of South Carolina.

Adams, a former Clemson University football star, died Sunday morning after he was taken to the Emergency Room at Self Regional in Greenwood, County Coroner James T. Coursey told the Greensville News.

Though on the Fox pregame show just now, Jay Glaser said he was "found dead," so that sounds like he was dead before he got to the ER.

Holy crap.

[KnoxHarrington]

Holy crap.

Unconfirmed reports it was a heart attack, which would make sense if it was a sudden death. But nothing official yet.

[disneyspy]

holy crap,i just saw on the fox pregame show there was an earthquake in haiti!

[K.C.]

It sickens me to say this, but I have to pull for the Cowboys today.

I never thought I'd ever say it, but the thought of two weeks of Super Bowl build up with Brett Favre sickens me more than the thought of asshole Jerry Jones hoisting a trophy.

I just want those Vikings fans to deal with a "will he/won't he retire" drama filled off-season.

[lleeder]

why would a team that can't make fieldgoals go for 48 yard one?

[KnoxHarrington]

The Vikings are up, but the Cowboys are totally outplaying them. And this Vikes defense looks turrrible.

[K.C.]

These are the types of games Dallas loses, though.

[KnoxHarrington]

These are the types of games Dallas loses, though.

Yeah, they get close, then do something stupid. So far we've had good drives stalled by a Romo fumble, and by two stupid calls by Wade Phillips: trying for a 48 yard FG with a terrible kicker, and inexplicably deciding to give the Wildcat a try as they're nearing the goal line.

[EliSnow]

Solid offensive drive.

[epo]

You can't count on the Cowboys to do anything right.

[sailor]

I love the Hippo-method.

[EliSnow]

Come on. The cowboys have been jawing all game.

[EliSnow]

How is that defense now?

[epo]

I swear the Cowboys are defining the phrase "shitting the bed".

[epo]

How is that defense now?

Vikings defense?

Overrated.

Its not like they've done anything special. Dallas just keeps shitting the bed and giving the Vikings offense the ball with great field position.

Wanna bet that stupid throw was a Favre audible?

[EliSnow]

Its not like they've done anything special. Dallas just keeps shitting the bed and giving the Vikings offense the ball with great field position.

The last fumble was due to the defense, though. The rush pressure has gone up.

[foodcourtdruide]

why would a team that can't make fieldgoals go for 48 yard one?

Stupid decision. Why would you throw on 2nd down when you're trying to just end the half?

[A.J.]

I think the Saints will probably kill whoever gets through today, but, yeah, the sooner this Favre bullshit ends and we get another teary "retirement" press conference, the better.

How soon after is the "I'm coming back/I still want to play" press conference?

[epo]

I have a question sort of related to this game...and with Eli's law knowledge I might get an answer:

How the fuck have the Williams brothers avoided their suspensions for 1.5 years?

[EliSnow]

I have a question sort of related to this game...and with Eli's law knowledge I might get an answer:

I don't think the law has anything to do with it.

[epo]

I don't think the law has anything to do with it.

There was an appeal to a Minnesota federal judge who "magically" ruled in the Vikings favor and allowed them to continue to play until "further review".

[EliSnow]

I didn't see the opinion so I can't say what was going on.

Ugh, what shit play.

[epo]

May I never hear about how Jason Garrett is a "great play caller" ever again.

[EliSnow]

Why is the Cowboys defense jawing so much when down by 14?

[EliSnow]

How many false start is that?

[EliSnow]

Big hit there

Maybe. But you have to acknowledge the fact -- Hippo was the Vikes' 12th man.

[epo]

Hippo should be illegal during the playoffs.

seems cowboys didn't realize they can't play the Eagles every week.
The Ol' man still has the touch.

[Jughead]

I thought the cowboys would play better???

[KnoxHarrington]

Yeah, so much for this "They've learned to play in the playoffs" line.

[Dell]

I thought the cowboys would play better???

but we all wish they would play worse???:wink:

[Dell]

Yeah, so much for this "They've learned to play in the playoffs" line.

they do have that one playoff victory over the past four years though...

[TripleSkeet]

Youre insane. Nothing is worse then the Cowboys in the Super Bowl.

Thank you Hippo. Im glad I was able to help spurn that prediction.

Its nice to see how Dallas plays against a real NFL defense. But hey DS, look at the bright side, that playoff win probably guaranteed at least another year of Wade Philips as the coach. :thumbup:

Disneyspy, post so I can lust over your avatar one more time this season. Baby, give me what I need!

"This is emotional, after all the stuff that took place" - Favre

Seriously? He's still playing that card?

[KnoxHarrington]

What the FUCK...the CBS affiliate here is running something called the "Hoops for Haiti Telethon" now instead of the game!

[TripleSkeet]

Seriously? He's still playing that card?

His complete assholedness is whats got me rooting for him. I know, I cant believe it either. I cant help it, I always seem to find myself rooting for the bad guy.

[brettmojo]

This postseason has been awful.

Nothing but blowouts.

[epo]

His complete assholedness is whats got me rooting for him. I know, I cant believe it either. I cant help it, I always seem to find myself rooting for the bad guy.

If he's seriously still playing that shit, I not only hope he loses next week....I hope the Saints do a Theismann to his leg.

[KnoxHarrington]

This postseason has been awful.

I'm hoping we at least get some good championship games, but I can't see the Vikes as much of a challenge to the Saints at this point.

A Colts/Chargers AFC championship game would be good, though.

[RhinoinMN]

HOW 'BOUT THEM COWBOYS!!!!!!!



shitdicks.

So bitter, so jaded, so jilted.

[epo]

So bitter, so jaded, so jilted.

Exactly. Favre is obviously bitter as he is still mentioning "everything that happened" after the Vikes win a playoff game.

[brettmojo]

I wonder if Wade still thinks they're winners?

"Shucks??? Winnars? Yes'm... They won der' divisor didnyt dey son? Hell if dat' ain't a winnar den a pig don't like slop!"

[brettmojo]

Exactly. Favre is obviously bitter as he is still mentioning "everything that happened" after the Vikes win a playoff game.
He was probably referring to the disaster in Haiti. All those poor souls... They're so close to all our hearts.

cept for the second half of cards packers

[TripleSkeet]

The Vikings can avvoid the whole thing by just announcing that iuf he comes back, he doesnt have to shot up to training camp. Thats all this is about. Hes old and doesnt want to go to camp. After this season its pretty obvious he doesnt need to. So if they want him, and want to avoid the drama, thats what they have to do.

[SKANE]

Maybe Feely should punt.

[hanso]

One more blow out game to cap it off?


http://www.10pix.ru/img1/849804/637268.gif
Go Bolts!

Lol the announcer jinxed the FG

[King Hippos Bandaid]

wow I sucked in that Cowboy pick


but Favre won (that annoys epo)

and the Cowboys lost ( thats makes me happy and Disney upset)


oh yes I spin everything to my favor

San Diego carving up yards.

Jets have to just hope they keep em to 3 here.

edit:

Guess that won't happen

[jetdog]

announcers gettin testy

[SKANE]

SD got away with one there.

[foodcourtdruide]

Jets got robbed on the replay. That was at least too close to call, so the call on the field should have been upheld.

[PD]

Jets driving.
If they go in at half down 7-3, considering all, that wont be bad.

[SKANE]

Can't let them score before the half. The Jets are still in this one.

[King Hippos Bandaid]

wow a close game

the jets have the score where they want, they need a muffed punt of a timely fumble to occur ... If they get lucky, another week of Jets fans yapping it up on Sports Radio......

gimmicky bullshit.

This game just goes to show I know nothing about football.
All of the match ups I picked to be good games turned out to be blow-outs, and the one blow out I thought was coming is the closest game so far.

[Bob Impact]

and listen to that crowd boo.

[PD]

gimmicky bullshit.

This game just goes to show I know nothing about football.
All of the match ups I picked to be good games turned out to be blow-outs, and the one blow out I thought was coming is the closest game so far.

while I thought the others might be closer I can't think of one "analyst" that thought this would be a blow-out.

[sailor]

Never bet on Norv Turner.

[jetdog]

while I thought the others might be closer I can't think of one "analyst" that thought this would be a blow-out.

Like I said, I have no skills. I just really thought the chargers would take control offensively and the jets would make too many mistakes.

[PD]

wow.

dominating blitz there by Rhodes.

[Bob Impact]

Like I said, I have no skills. I just really thought the chargers would take control offensively and the jets would make too many mistakes.

Considering SD can't seem to hang on to the ball i'm agreeing with you now.

i lifted the bans.

i lifted the bans.

Its gotta be far too late for that.

I cant believe the Jets are gonna beat this team. Very impressive.

Sanchez has been on the ball with his passing...


Another Jets TD!

[epo]

Huge TD.

Huge TD.

absolutely.

up 2 scores, pretty much jets just need to keep SD away from big play.

[foodcourtdruide]

No way SD comes back. Good job Jets. Colts vs this defense should be fun to watch.

I guess to prevent possibly giving it back quickly on a return...but yeah, I don't get it either.

If SD scores a TD we've definitely got a game.

[PD]

Wow

[Bob Impact]

Jets got fucking lucky there

[SKANE]

Wide right!

[Misteriosa]

so wide.. jeez...

edit: and i love how just before, they put under the kicker: never missed 3

[jetdog]

somebody had to have bought this kid off, 3 misses?!

[K.C.]

What a choke job by Kaeding.

Well, maybe the Jets will get lucky next week and the Colts will bench Manning for three quarters in anticipation of the Super Bowl.

[epo]

I would fire Norv and cut Kaeding.

[K.C.]

somebody had to have bought this kid off, 3 misses?!

He was one of the best kickers in the league, too.

Nah, I'd like to see the Jets win...they're the most palatable of what's left...but I'm going to conduct myself in a begrudging and somewhat spiteful manner the entire way.

[epo]

Holy crap, Vincent Jackson. What a horrible penalty to take.

[K.C.]

What a retard penalty...idiotic for the guy to do it, but at the same time, do we really need 15 for kicking the challenge flag? Really??

this game is definitely not over yet.

[SKANE]

Looks like a good catch. Stupid penalty though.

[Bob Impact]

Holy crap, Vincent Jackson. What a horrible penalty to take.

Seriously, why would you ever do that.

[TheGameHHH]

God I hate the Jets so fucking much but I love watching typical San Diego football come playoff time. Talk a big game all season and then lay an absolute dud when it matters. I'm actually kinda surprised LT didn't limp off the field sometime in the first quarter. At least the Jets made me some money, if gambling were legal of course.

[PD]

God I hate the Jets so fucking much.
why all the hate?

you aren't a Pat of Dolphin fan, are you?

[jetdog]

Holy crap, Vincent Jackson. What a horrible penalty to take.

It never ceases to amaze me how stupid pro-athletes can be, on and off the field/court.

[jetdog]

cool, things get interesting...

[K.C.]

Great job by Rivers.

I'd love to see this come down to Kaeding kicking for overtime with a chance for the Golden Sombrero.

[TheGameHHH]

why all the hate?

you aren't a Pat of Dolphin fan, are you?

Patriots, sir. That's why I hate the Jets.

[Bob Impact]

cool, things get interesting...

Not cool, not cool at all. :furious:

[foodcourtdruide]

If SD scores a TD we've definitely got a game.

They looked dead. Good call tho. Onside kick here. Questionable call.

[PD]

Patriots, sir. That's why I hate the Jets.
fair enough then.

I thought you Yanks/Giants combo.

maybe that on-sides was a bad choice.

[epo]

Wouldn't you take the timeout before the warning if you are San Diego?

[Bob Impact]

fair enough then.

I thought you Yanks/Giants combo.

maybe that on-sides was a bad choice.

Probably was, you've got the 2 minute warning and a timeout left.

[K.C.]

Wouldn't you take the timeout before the warning if you are San Diego?

Save it in case you force a fumble here, then you keep it for the offense.

[jetdog]

I wish ron and fez would expand their sports coverage to include NFL playoffs, ESD and Blowhard in the same room would be a blast.

[TripleSkeet]

Normally Id never root for NY. But theres 2 reasons why I dont mind the Jets winning.

1. Buddys son. I dont care what anyone says about Buddy Ryan. Hes my favorite Eagles coach ever.

2. They arent the Giants.

[foodcourtdruide]

Wouldn't you take the timeout before the warning if you are San Diego?

I think they lost 5 seconds because of that.

[sailor]

go for it

[PD]

do you go for it here?

[foodcourtdruide]

Jets should go for it

[TripleSkeet]

Rex Ryan has balls of solid brass.

[jetdog]

killer, goin for it

[SKANE]

Go for it. Nice call Rex.

[epo]

do you go for it here?

Go

[K.C.]

I'd punt to pin them back. One of the best D's in the league, they have no timeouts, and their kicker sucks today.

EDIT: And there's Thomas Jones....very impressive win for the Jets

[foodcourtdruide]

Game over!

[jetdog]

what a way to win, great game

[Bob Impact]

Fuck yeah!

[sailor]

this one's for casey!

[underdog]

Never bet on Norv Turner.

I can't wait until next year when they again show the great record of Norv and Rivers in December, like it means anything.

[Misteriosa]

good job jets :clap:

[sailor]

a punt would be bad because there's a good chance for a touchback netting like 9 yards.

[underdog]

God I hate the Jets so fucking much but I love watching typical San Diego football come playoff time. Talk a big game all season and then lay an absolute dud when it matters. I'm actually kinda surprised LT didn't limp off the field sometime in the first quarter. At least the Jets made me some money, if gambling were legal of course.

Yeah, it was surprising to not see LT lay down at some point. But he wasn't on the field for the last 4 minutes, I don't think.

[SKANE]

Wow. Another week of not being able to listen to sports radio. Congrats Jets fans. At least the Eagles and Cowboys are out of it...

[TripleSkeet]

Now if only they can beat the Colts again. How ironic would it be if the Colts go home at the hands of a team that made the playoffs because they took out their starters and conceded the game?

[K.C.]

Good point by Boomer...if the Chargers kick deep, the Jets HAVE to punt on 4th down...that ended up being huge.

[PD]

going was the choice (obviously it worked) because as Sailor said it would net 9 yards on a TB, and Jets, with 3 pro bowl linemen, you figure should get the short yards.

I think Manning will lead them next week, but as a Jet fan, I"m damn happy.

[disneyspy]

fuck hippo,that fuck

[PD]

I love Rex Ryan as coach.

in the post game conference he said "I don't think Santa will be that nice to me, but I'd like to see Manning skip this next game too"

[Earlshog]

So now Dave has to get a tat of Mark Sanchez eating a hotdog?

[K.C.]

If you're looking at the supernatural aspect of next week's game, the Football Gods have to be heavily on the side of the Jets.

If the Colts had gone for the perfect season and actually played that game against the Jets, the Jets wouldn't even be in the playoffs...it's only fitting the Jets bounce them in the AFC Championship.

since i haven't seen him here, I assume Tenbats still banned...

never mind- i see his return.

HAHA...that is a great quote. I'll admit, I was all over the Jets for being an average team and the way they got into the playoffs. But I'll shut up now. I still don't think they are a great team, but they play great defense and can run the ball. Two impressive wins and I can't say they won't win next week.

[sailor]

So now Dave has to get a tat of Mark Sanchez eating a hotdog?

it'll look like Carmela.

[spoon]

So wait, now I'm not banned!? WTF! Not only do the jets still suck, now I have to add how much worse SD is. Thanks to Gates and Scifres for showing up, and Turner being fired better be my birthday present.

Seriously, tell me the Chargers didn't do pretty much everything possible to help the jets win? How many stupid penatlies? How many stupid play calls? And what the fuck is with Kaeding now? If he hits a single FG it's a different game. The onside kick, WTF!? But what would I expect from Turner. Bottom line is if they kick that ball deep, the jets are even more conservative and DON'T EVEN THINK of going for it on 4th. All in all Rivers had that one real bad throw, but he drove the team down the field for a TD and short FG attempt (AGAIN) that should have been for the tie or more. I can't even blame him.

Oh and fuck this extra vacation time bc Tenbats had Fallon take his ban off so he could post last week. It added to our banning time bc they put it back from the start. This place really is a joke.

Your team needs to stop recycling old coaches that have never won dick. There has to be some smart young coordinators out there looking for a head coaching job. San Diego needs to snag one up before their window closes.

As far as your banning goes....well...I never agree with anyone being banned. For any reason.

[IMSlacker]

If the Colts had gone for the perfect season and actually played that game against the Jets, the Jets wouldn't even be in the playoffs...it's only fitting the Jets bounce them in the AFC Championship.

I really hope the Jets beat the Colts next week. Maybe that would teach them not to throw games.

[Mitch&Murray]

I hope they get the same guy that did the Sopranos tattoo to do the Sanchez eating a hotdog tat on Dave.he deserves it

Oh trust me, I could really give two fucks about the bannings, it's just that the rule crazy don't even follow their own.

As for the SD coaching comments, HELL, I've hated Turner since day fucking one. Trust me on that one. Even when SD wins, it's in spite of him.

sailor didn't even notice you were still banned until I pointed it out. Did they just forget to turn off the ban or something?

[spoon]

Nah, I talked to Eli about it last week and earlier today. Fallon pretty much dropped our bans bc Tenbats talked him into it so he could post on Sunday. I didn't post and took my ban, but we both got banned once again Sunday night. Bc of this, we got an extra day or so even though I had shit to do with it. I asked him to open me up so I could post today and I was informed our fearless leader gave the thumbs down even though it broke his own stupid rules. Bottom line, GAY. I'll take my shit for the awful game SD played, it surely wasn't my intention not to post.

Go Manning and Brees. I hope the Saints take this shit. I still really like Drew a ton, but not so much with Shockey and Bush.

why dont you try picking them to win. That way they finally lose

FIRE TURNER!
Phillips first. We might as well swap.

[TripleSkeet]

As for the SD coaching comments, HELL, I've hated Turner since day fucking one. Trust me on that one. Even when SD wins, it's in spite of him.

The worst part is, that team has had the talent to go to the Super Bowl for years now. If they had a decent head coach they wouldve been there by now. First Schottenheimer, then Turner. I never got that. Why do NFL teams keep hiring guys that have never accomplished anything? Dave Wandstedt and Wade Phillips are 2 more names that come to mind. I never understood it.

[Snoogans]

Phillips first. We might as well swap.

yankees and cowboys?

So, talk radio talking points aside, what's everyone think about this game? The Jets definitely deserve respect for going into SD and winning, but a few things (NOTE I'm biased as a Colts fan)

- The Colts are playing two similar teams, two weeks in a row. They handled a good offensive line and running game very well against the Ravens.
- Jets have a great defense, but when they needed to stop SD on that last drive, they were completely non-existant, eventhough they had help from Vincent Jackson stupidity.
- Sanchez has proven nothing. He's going to be good one day, but not yet. He's still very much a rookie QB and the Colts pass defense is one of the best in the league.

These arguments are meaningless. There were 500 reasons the Jets should have lost in San Diego, but they didn't. Just curious to hear others opinions.

[foodcourtdruide]

Good point by Boomer...if the Chargers kick deep, the Jets HAVE to punt on 4th down...that ended up being huge.

I don't understand the onside kick decision at all. They had a timeout and the 2-minute warning left and besides one big run, the Jets offense was silent all day. Boomer was 100% correct, 4th and 1 on their own 29 and there's no way they go for it. What a stupid call, cost them the game. It's funny because Belichek caught so much shit for going on 4th down vs. the Colts in the regular season, but in my opinion this decision was SO much worse.

Couple of opinions (Jets Season ticket holder since 1960)

The coach even admitted in the post game they eased up on the last scoring drive trying to work the clock a bit. He even apoligized to the fans for it:laugh:
Colts receivers and TE dont scare the Jets as much as SD receivers and TE did. SD guys were getting open early but adjustments were made and shut down occured.
Sanchez limits mistakes He made only one yesterday.
Jets did get to see 2 1/2 quarters of Colts a couple weeks ago so there is familiarity to a certain extent.
You guys have Peyton Manning we dont.

Id like to see a good game I dont see a blowout one way or another.

I've said this many times. The only reason the Colts won Saturday night was because the Ravens gave it away via fumbles and mistakes, NOT because the Colts handily beat them.

[Tenbatsuzen]

that's called the tomlinson.

I thought it was called the Ricky Williams.

[foodcourtdruide]

This makes no sense. You're acting like turnovers aren't part of a football game. When you hold a team to 3 points and score 20 you handily beat them.

That game was over by the end of the 3rd quarter.

The Ed Reed INT / fumble completely changed the flow of the game.

[foodcourtdruide]

that was an amazing play.

[Tenbatsuzen]

that was an amazing play.

I'm not saying turnovers aren't part of the game, but an INT into a fumble is a very very rare play. That plus the Rice fumble could have completely changed the flow.

We'll see what happens. I'm sick of this shit that the Colts weren't trying and the Jets didn't deserve to be in and all this other shit. The Colts pulled their players with a lead, fine, you have that.

The Jets fucking WALLOPED the Bengals in Week 17 and the only reason the starters came out was because of 1) Welker's injury earlier that day 2) it was fucking 15 degrees and 3) The game was meaningless to the Bengals and the Jets had established a huge lead against their first team.

You want to talk about Free pass, fine they got one agains the Colts. But the Jets still had to win Week 17. That's not a free pass.

[TripleSkeet]

It's funny because Belichek caught so much shit for going on 4th down vs. the Colts in the regular season, but in my opinion this decision was SO much worse.

Im not sure I understand this statement. What was worse? Rex Ryan going for it on 4th down? Or Norv Turner trying the onside kick?

If you meant Turner, I totally agree. If you meant Ryan, you couldnt be more wrong.

[Tenbatsuzen]

Agreed. The Jets were deep in SD territory on a fourth down. San Diego had no time outs at that point and less than a minute to get down the field to tie, not win, the game, with a kicker who already missed three.

Jets kick the FG, they force SD to score a TD, but they are still giving the ball back to them.

The Belichick fourth down play was deep in their own territory.

It was a higher percentage to get one yard than it would be to kick a high-pressure FG and then give the ball back with a minute to play. Rivers vs. the Giants earlier this year comes to mind.

Pretty much how I see it, although I'd add that Colts also have Freeney who could blow up any passing offense.
I'm a Jet fan who sees a probable 27-20 Colt win, but, if like the SD game, the lower the score the better the Jets chances. Remember no one had kept SD below 20 points this season before Sunday.
