Tebow scored a decent run in but I was a little disappointed he didnt play more of the game.

Ah well, we still have the draft pick, money to spare in the budget cap and we are heading to the play offs... Its a shame as Moss was a great player for us for a while but we survive.

We're every bit AS good, if not better without him this season, as we have so many options right now, and encouragingly, so many of them in their rookie season!

With the draft picks we have accumulated through some brilliant bits of business from Belichick et al, we're going to have power to be competitive for many years to come!

Great to be a Pats fan right now - this past 8 years has felt like karma redressing itself from the years of being the worst team in the NFL!

True! We have 2 picks for the first four rounds this year dont we? Brilliant.

Bad BAD result for us away to a simply much better Cleveland side. Our offense was utterly shocking tonight and I'm not surprised with the outcome! Cleveland played superbly tonight, using imagination all over their offense! Brady had some good numbers tonight, but wasn't helped out at all by a very ineffective offensive line!

Ach well, it was nice to be on top for a week :greengrin - good win for the Jets against an ever improving Lions side - not exactly a blistering performance (LT only getting 55 yards - an off-week for sure :agree:), but grinding these results out is the difference between playoffs and an early off-season.

Michigan game was a nightmare yesterday! No doubt brilliant for the neutral, but my finger nails are non-existent! I've bit my left thumbnail so low, it hurts like a bitch right now :greengrin

[DH1875]

Missed the Jets game as didn't get back till late. Seems we were lucky again winning in overtime. Anyone see any of the game? If so how did we play? Great news that the Pats got rolled over. How did they play as got to admit I had them down for the win. Did you have a look at the Nike Jersey yet?

When did the Bills start playing games in Toronto and how many times a season do they do that? I can't believe I didn't know they done that.

Just saw the highlights of the Jets game - looked like they were frustrated by a pretty competent looking Detroit defense actually. Lots of mistakes throughout the game, but they rallied well after going 20-10 down, so a good night.

We didn't play disasterously - made a few mistakes on our offensive line, giving up fumbles and failing to advance much, but Brady had some great numbers (leading pass stats) - just failed to do it too regularly - it wasn't as much that we were bad - Cleveland were pretty damned impressive :agree:

I did have a look at the Nike Jersey - I assume you're referring to the red one, with the stars and stripes on it? It would be a third kit at best, with the blue and white being the home and away respectively. The blue and white ones are fine to me, but the red third kit is a little over-the-top in my eyes.

[Gatecrasher]

Clay Matthews is a BEAST!!!

We got them next week so should be intresting. Season looks like it's heating up nice and should be a good case of cat and mouse between use and us between now and the end of the season.

Not sure we talking about the same jersey's cause the Pats ones I saw really were awful. To be fair I haven't seen the Jets ones but the other teams I've seen look as if Nike are trying to modernise/jazz them up.

He is having some season that's for sure. Is it true you picked him up as a non drafted free agent or did I just make that up. How's AJ Hawk playing?

You right, the Cowboys look awful.

I'm sure he was drafted, around 7th pick though a more educated person might correct that

AJ is playing well although a bit quieter than last season.

Al Harris has been released which is a bit of a shock to me.

And I'm sure the bills still play in buffalo I thought it was an international series type game

[DH1875]

And I'm sure the bills still play in buffalo I thought it was an international series type game

I know they still play in Buffalo but apparently they been playing some games in Toronto. It's not an international series type thing as they doing it of their own back. I'm thinking a move could be on the cards if the league will allow a team from Canada in.

Teams have been known to move from city to city for example the Indy Colts were once the Baltimore Colts. Titans were once the Houston Oilers IIRC?

You also got the Rams who used to be the LA Rams and of course the Raiders went from Oakland to LA and then back again. Think if my memory is right the Redskins originally came from Boston although that was a long long time ago. In fact the list could go on. Seems a lot of teams have moved throughout the years. It's the one think I hate about American sports.

Ah well, highlights on the Pats website it is then.

Cleveland and NY are currently into OT.

[Sylar]

TD Jets with 14 seconds to go in OT.

So many games they've played utter dross this season, but have ground it out at the last portion of the game.

Generally what teams need to do to win championships :agree:

Fair enjoyed that game, fourth quarter was fantastic especially.

What a player Brady is!

[Sylar]

"Brady to Gronkowski - TOUCHDOWN!" - seemed to be a recurring theme last night! WOW, I did NOT expect us to win that last night - delighted to see the score this morning when I signed online - the highlights were nice, but I'll catch the re-run later on the Pats website.

That was a massive statement, following our pitiful performance against Cleveland last week, and also a good response to the Jets picking up an OT win in Ohio. I'm very happy with the way we're continuing to pick up wins against very good teams right now.

Looks like you might be right DH - a Championship game in the New England snow might well be a feature this season!

enjoyed the 1st half last night of the pats v steelers, before sleep called, impressed with the pats D, sacked Ben 3 times, and enjoyed their overall game plan, good match up, steelers dont want to play anymore teams that lost their last game against the Browns:agree: ,

[DH1875]

Drew Coleman :flag::applause:. What can you say about the Jets:greengrin. Think that's 3 OT wins already this year, 2 in a row on the road. My only worry is that our luck has to run out at some point especially if we going to have to rely on Folk. Don't know what's happened to him but he has been poor this year. Anyone see Sanchez TD, never new he had it in him. The guy is just getting beter and better. Sweet also that Santonio is getting in on the action now as to be fair he aint done much. Add it together with our potential running game and our def and things are looking good.
Great result for the Pats though. Watched a bit of it before I crashed out and you guys looked good. What happened fourth quarter though? Couldn't blieve it when I found out the Steelers had put up 23 points in the fourth.
I got to ask, what's going on with Brady and that hair :faf:.

[DH1875]

Georgia 21 - 7 Auburn
Penn ST. 14 - 3 Ohio ST.

14-3 :faf::faf::faf:. Think you missed the 2nd half. Herron had a great game and we put up 35 points to run out 38-14 winners. That's us 9-1, 5-1 in the division and still in a shout. We still got what's prob our two hardest games to come though.


As much as it hurts... I think it is their year...

Now, now. It's been a long time coming and it's about bloody time we had something to shout about. It's not as if we haven't had to put up with you lot winning is it

Jets stumble across the line yet again - these are games they would have lost in seasons gone by, so the improvement in the current roster is obvious!

Currently Colts 0-7 Patriots. Manning looks like turning the ball over every time he goes through the air just now!

Really need to get the win here tonight :agree:

[Sylar]

Indianapolis 0-14 Patriots.

Really love to see us going at them for all 4 quarters - Brady looks unstoppable thus far, picking passes to so many different receivers and our defense also looks pretty solid thus far.

Happy with our start, but then, the Jets were probably happy with their start too :agree:

[Sylar]

I imagine, for the neutrals (or anti-Pats) amongst you, that this has been a cracking game! Patriots lead 31-14, before an awesome performance from Manning brought them back to 31-28. With the Colts in FG range, with 3 timeouts and 49 seconds remaining, we FINALLY got pressure to Manning in the pocket and he overcooked his pass into the waiting hands of Cunningham - 2 knees and game over.

HUGE win ahead of a difficult trip to Motor City on Thursday.

I at least expected OT as well, seeing as they were in FG range.

Yeah it was chilling, whe you saw him talking on the field it was a relief until you saw the Doctor pinching his arms and legs. He might have been alive but it was a question of would he be able to move again.

I sincerely hope the Eagles fined him for that! Mercy me!

I can't find the video, but in the New England @ San Diego (I think?) game earlier in the year, San Diego caught the ball for what should have been a first down, but the referee didn't state the San Diego TE as "down", so he got up and left the ball, and New England recovered the ball.

Was brilliant! :thumbsup:

New England Patriots 3-14 Detroit Lions

No other defense has gotten to Brady this season, quite like the Lions have today.

Still early, and I'm hopeful we can turn this around...

[Sylar]

Half time at Ford Field:

New England 10-17 Detroit

Better finish to the half with an impressive drive and better protection to Brady. Hopefully can keep it going in the second half.

[Sylar]

Where's that head against the wall smiley?

:brickwall - 52 seconds possession and a 3 and out.

[Haymaker]

Brady - Welker = 38-24 with 6mins remaining...


:thumbsup:

[Haymaker]

Detroit what?!

45-24 to the NE Patriots!

:thumbsup:

[Sylar]

What an utterly unstoppable second half offensive performance. How many variations of plays did we employ!

Helped by another awesome performance by Devon McCourty with 2 picks.

Tom Brady - sensational QB :agree:

I'd be REALLY grateful if the Bengals could muster a win vs the Jets tonight ahead of the MASSIVE game next Monday...

Devon is top quality. A fantastic signing for us, another good win and it puts us firmly in the frame for a championship game...

Come on the Bengals!

Another top addition this year has been Dan Woodhead, who was turfed by the Jets at the start of the season.

He's been awesome on both offense AND defense.

That win could have a huge bearing on our post-season appearance, as the race for the WC slot is as tight as the AFC East race right now.

Both of our run-ins to the end of the season is challenging, to say the least...

NY Jets (H)

Green Bay (H)

tough run ins indeed. I think we can take the Jets at home, they might be winning but it seems to be close recently. Chicago is a good prospect and so is Buffalo and Miami... the only one that really worries me is Green Bay.

Bills are on fire just now and Chicago aren't 7-3 for no reason - I don't fear Miami, but the Jets at home are ALWAYS challenging.

Saints are absolutely hammering the Cowboys just now - just started the 2nd quarter and New Orleans are up 17-0, with Dallas having just turned the ball over on downs, having gone for it at 4th and 1, to no avail.

10 seconds into the 2nd quarter - Saints could set a record NFL score if they keep pounding away at them - nothing better than watching the Cowboys get pumped on Thanksgiving Day :agree:

[Calvin]

Between the Ashes and the Bengals @ Jets I'm not sure how I can be expected to sleep.

Brad Smith is some player, 80 yard kick return TD with only one shoe! As a newcomer to the sport I don't really have a 'team' but I'm warming to the Jets!

Yeah, that ends Boise's quest for the BCS Bowl too - 2 missed FG's as well!

The Auburn @ Alabama game was great! 'Bama were comfortable at half time, leading 24-7, but after the restart, only managed 3 points in the second half, as Auburn steamrolled them, to eventually edge out a 28-27 win.

Beginning to look like Oregon and Auburn will fight it out for the BCS :agree:

I wouldn't necessarily say so - we both have VERY difficult run-ins once this game is out of the way - I'd imagine you're PROBABLY right, but we've both slipped up at points this season when we should be winning.

I'll probably watch it on the Tuesday in all honesty - even if I have the luxury of working from home on the Tuesday morning, I just never see the point in staying up these days, apart from the Superbowl or the conference Championship games - it feels like a recovery from jetlag the day after.

I'm well aware it became fashionable to follow the Patriots when we went through our successful period - I was the same as you and Ayrshire - I remember 2 seasons before we won our first superbowl, when we had the worst record in the NFL and the successful period afterwards was a lovely change.

Please don't take the following question as gloating (as I really don't know) but when was the last time the Jets won either the Conference or the Superbowl?

Wow - I genuinely didn't think it had been quite that long - I'm not relishing the thought of playing you lot either, especially with a loss already to our name vs you this season. Home field advantage might make a difference, but you have a good team this season, so it should be close regardless.

[Sylar]

Couches rearranged to hide behind, ESPN America set and we're all good to go.

To win, we're going to have to outscore OSU - an easy task right enough...

I've never witnessed a Michigan win in the entire length of time I've been following them. A first would be nice!

Guess I'll need to wait a little while longer - started well enough, but in typical fashion of getting utterly NO decisions in Columbus and our habit of capitulating this year, we suddenly trail 10-0.

[Sylar]

This is turning into the blowout I feared it would.

Ohio State are just too strong, yet again - unless we get rid of Rodriguez in the off-season and bring in a better coach, who's willing to improve our recruitment/training programmes, we're going to face a very long losing record.

The only bonus of today is that, no matter how many points OSU hammer us by, it still won't be enough. to get them into the BCS contention.

Wisconsin FTW :thumbsup:

Jordan Hall :thumbsup:.
WTF was that penalty on Posse all about?
You guy's would be nothing without Robinson. If he don't come out for the second half you are looking at a real doing.
What's your thought's on Pryor? Do you think he will make it in the NFL?

As for the Jets question, we actually gone the longest out of the current teams without winning it. Some teams aint won it but they haven't been around that long :faf:. Superbowl 3, Broadway Joe and all that. Think last time we won the division was about 10 years ago. Not 100% sure but has been a while. Will check it out and let you know.

Sorry, I had to delete that ugly 4 letter sequence - it was hurting my eyes :wink:

We're dreadful - utterly no question - I turned off around 4 minutes into the 3rd - it was getting silly.

It's a difficult question, the Pryor one, as I don't honestly know - I thought Tebow would have taken the NFL by storm, as he was sensational during his time with Florida. I also thought Stafford would have been a quick sensation, but it hasn't turned out that way.

He'll definitely make it in the NFL, but I don't think he's good enough to be one of the greats - he has the benefit of a brilliant surrounding offense at OSU and is helped by playing a lot of inferior teams during the collegiate season. James Laurinitis is a prime example - he was a sensation at Ohio State, but has been fairly ordinary since making the step up.

Enjoy the second half - I'm going into hibernation until the news filters through the Rich Rodriguez has been punted :greengrin

Heh, aye, 7 in a row, but still a way off of having the same long-term record :wink:.

These games tend to go in long sequences of success, and it's been miserable for us of late - if we can bin Rodriguez (as is highly expected) and bring in a new coach, with a more comfortable defense, home field advantage (which I'll be at next year) and you losing a few seniors, we MIGHT have a chance.

I still reckon we're a few recruitment periods away from returning to the days of being able to beat you though :agree:

I have to say, I thought that was ridiculous! I also thought the penalty against Ohio State's number 8 diving into the end-zone for the TD was ridiculous, as he clearly dived to get in between our 2 defenders.

There were some shocking calls all throughout the match :agree:

[James.]

Marist finished their season last weekend with another loss. Finished 3-8 (2-6 in their conference) I sure can pick em! They lost their last five but I've watched the Isles lose 14 on the bounce so I'm used to bad runs this year :greengrin

Your Packers are going to do well to sneak something out of this - been awful on the rush all day - take Aaron Rodgers out of that team, and you don't have much.

Defense has played fairly solid right enough, but offensively you've been poor.

4th and goal on the 5 yard line to push this into OT - all or nothing.

[Sylar]

Good TD to level it, but followed by a facemask to allow the Falcons good field position.

FG looks likely to end this :agree:

[Sylar]

VERY costly facemask penalty - stupid doesn't quite cover it.

9 seconds to try and get a TD/FG - no chance.

.................no seriously why?

What do you call 53 guys sitting around watching this years superbowl on the tele?

The New England Patriots.

Haha, it's like Belichick and Ryan. One doing a bit of mumbling and the other doing A LOT of talking.

Anyway lets get ripped into the Brady Bunch tonight!! Absolutely nothing to fear! They're running scared; we have the better team, the better coach (IMO :wink:) and - although they wont be there - the better fans (FACT!)

We've NO chance. How comes no one thought it would be a good idea to mention our Safety Jim Leonhard broke his leg at the weekend. I'd have thought twice about running my mouth if I'd known. Brady will rip us a new one and they will be out of sight come half time.

[Haymaker]

3-24 at the half...

:wink:

3-45 at the finish. No INTs for Brady and he has now broken Brett Favres record of consecutive regular season home wins.

Brilliant game.

Was expecting a Pats win but not 3-45. Gonna have to look up the highlights for this one!

Game.Statement!

Huge win for us - absolutely HUGE win. Still doesn't mean anything yet, as our run-in is a hard one, but to smash the Jets quite so comfortably, despite their good season thus far is encouraging.

Heads up though guys - you're probably still odds on to make the playoffs :agree:

I think its time to bring out the old line: Same Old Jets.

That was just plain humiliating tonight, especially the sideline antics with Bart Scott. I understand Sanchez is going to have off nights but the defence were made to look like total fools by Brady tonight.

Still don't rate the Patriots though.

I'm pretty sure we could have put up 60 odd points last night and you still wouldn't rate us! :greengrin

Just done watching the highlights and both our offense and defense were absolutely outstanding last night - I've seen a lot of teams this year, but we probably have one of the most diverse offensive units in terms of play variability.

Defense looked good, though I have to ask AH (and DH when he comes out of hiding) - why DO the Jets fail so catastrophically when it doesn't come together? When you lose, it always seems to be because your offense is limited to fieldgoals - it's staggering - when you're bad, you're a disaster, which just shouldn't be, considering some of your personnel.

Do you know, it wouldn't surprise me one bit - destroy our divisional rivals, and then stumble against the Packers.

im sure the Jets and Pats have to play the bears soon, while the Packers have the Pats and Giants.

This could make for an interesting run in :hmmm:

Patriots

@ Chicago (probably the second Sky game next week)
vs Green Bay (Channel 4)
@ Buffalo
vs Miami

Jets

@ Pittsburgh
@ Chicago (tough 2 weeks back to back)

Packers

@ Detroit
@ New England
vs NY Giants
vs Chicago (Surely the Sky Sports early game)

Chicago

vs New England
@ Minnesota
vs Jets
@ Green Bay

I'd reckon we need to win 2 to guarantee the playoffs - probably the same with the Jets and Chicago - I'd say the Packers are looking at winning 3 and hoping either New England or the Jets can bring down the Bears at Soldier Field.

LOL. Hilarious. BBC says that the media is not available in my country. I saw the action over here though and it was an amazing last ditch effort. I was really surprised when he fell over. Just goes to show you that all it takes is the slightest touch to knock a running man down. If that was football then people would be screaming that he dived....

Take it you got to see the game then:hi:.

We should make the wildcard but if we don't win another game this season it wont surprise me. Do not underestimate just how much of a loss Leonhard is to our D. The Pats also showed that any team with a half decent TE will rip us apart (and they got two).

Only time I'm going to ever say anything nice about you lot on here but I rate you. Always new they would come good but thought you might struggle this year because of the amount of young guy's and rookies you've got. Look's like weare going to have to sit and watch you dominate again cause they are only going to get better and better over the next couple of years.


Like I've said before, our D will always stuggle against a team with a descent TE and the fact you got two in Gronkowski and Harnandez gives you great variability(can't believe they are both rookies). The Danny Woodhead thing was always going to happen(still don't understand why we cut him) and of course you got a certin QB.

Simple really, it's Jets football. Way it is and way it's always been. We will always find a way to fall on our face. You get use to it after a while (its just like watching Hibs, they often promise so much but will without doubt blow it one way or another). You got to remember though, this is all new to us. When was the last time we were looking to seriously make a challange for the Superbowl? Rem you talking about a team who have only ever won the divison 4 times in their history, that's division not conference or SB.
Or if you want, field goals? Have you seen Nick Folk this year? He has been utter crap. Did you see the first one he missed last night. Didn't even make the net:grr: and of course there's Schottenhimer. The least said about him the better.

Would a loss to the Pack be a stumble? Wouldn't surprise me if they beat you. Think they in with a shout of making the Superbowl myself.

Yeah I did, thanks for the PM! The adverts were bloody annoying though!

Leonhard is a massive loss but the way you crumbled shows the lack of leadership on D (if not the whole team). Yes a massive blow but you shouldnt have allowed us to get that many points and close you down so much.

Mind you, Brady, Welker and Brianch are the types of players to open up any team if they sense the slightest weakness. Maybe if you had an different opponent instead of a divisional rivalry you could have calmed the nerves. Brady et al never let you settle knowing that.

Undersoil heating doesn't do much good in some of the temperatures in the northern states during December and January. Its only really effective as a frost protection system. If you get heavy snow (as they do in the aforementioned parts) you're better off leaving the snow on and using it as insulation, then clear the stuff off a day or two before the game.

[Sylar]

27-0

Chicago have been utterly woeful this first half...

[Sylar]

Wow - since the 3rd quarter of the Thanksgiving Day game vs Detroit, New England are currently 114-3 in terms of points scored/conceded.

Our defense has been brilliant thus far today - so many different players stepping into their roles and standing up to be counted. Another brilliant outing by Mayo and McCourtey.

[Part/Time Supporter]

da bad news Bears have less than 50 yards of total offense so far.

Their kick returners have taken more than twice that on the five kicks they've received.

:rolleyes:

[Part/Time Supporter]

Bears punt returned 70 yards for a touchdown. Called back for holding.

FFS the Vegas line on this was Bears +3.

if im right in thinking GB are 2 wins away from winning NFC North because Chicago have a better divisional record, so realisticly the packers need to win all 3 games against New England (highly unlikely) NY Giants (possible) and Chicago (dont like to think about it :greengrin). Thats assuming Chicago lose all 3 games against the Vikings, Jets and Packers. so to conclude this its very unlikely GB will make the play-offs :boo hoo:

Dunno if the above is a typo, but if Chicago win their next 2 games, then yes, they win the NFC North. Green Bay would need to win all three, and hope Chicago lose a couple along the way, which, considering their run-in, isn't out of the question - they were absolutely ghastly against us yesterday!

IMO, you both have 3 difficult games coming up, but you have it a bit harder, as the Giants are playing well right now, as are we. Chicago are facing a Jets side with no confidence (and evidently no offense) and a Vikings team who have sucked all year.

I reckon you need 2 and hope other results go your way to make a Wildcard place if nothing else.

It's the sheer amount of players (including rookies) we have stepping up to the plate right now - granted, it helps when Brady is in the form of his life, but we have options in every unit right now, and everyone is on top of their game!

With all the brilliant draft picks we have in waiting for next year too, I'm REALLY excited about what we can do in the next decade, if not this year.

Don't be such a sodding pessimist.

Chicago are truly awful (worse than you guys) and you SHOULD be able to beat Buffalo.

Another 2 wins should get you to the playoffs, even if it's via the wildcard position - you're too good a side (sometimes) to not be in the post-season.

Having said that, I'm starting to believe (perhaps foolishly - this is the Patriots, and I've been here before with them) that the AFC East race is over :agree:

I sincerely doubt it - you listen to either Brady or Belichick's press conferences and they don't regard us as having achieved anything yet.

And to be honest, if we rest anyone, the guys coming in as backup just now are really stepping up to the mark. McCourtey has a rib injury and missed the second half of the Bears game, so he might not make it.

Rodgers likely to recover by then?

I don't like to jump on the band wagon, especially when I believe it's too soon and we're only one Cleveland away from reality slap but the Pats just get stronger and stronger every week. I love how the team has responded to that silly loss and the tough schedule.

I know that every single game is a separate entity and you can't (or shouldn't) base next week's prediction on last week's results but just looking at the numbers it's difficult to see anything other than a Pats win. But the favourites don't always win.

The Packers might have only managed a field goal against the Lions but they didn't give up much either. It will be an interesting game but I think the Pats win this one. My Prediction :

Packers 10 - 34 Pats

Playing Madden just now - Guess who i have in the Super Bowl?


Ironically, the last time you actually won a Super Bowl was against us, in 1997 (sure it was played in the rather magnificent Superdome, where I watched us win our own Super Bowl in '02).

Finished 35-21 to GB on that day :agree:

the Pats v Rams game looked like one of those nail biter games :greengrin

[Haymaker]

Are they playing the Pro Bowl before the Super Bowl again this year? I just voted and then realised that if I am correct and it is an Atlanta - Pats final most of my picks wont play.

Don't be such a sodding pessimist.

Chicago are truly awful (worse than you guys) and you SHOULD be able to beat Buffalo.

Another 2 wins should get you to the playoffs, even if it's via the wildcard position - you're too good a side (sometimes) to not be in the post-season.

Having said that, I'm starting to believe (perhaps foolishly - this is the Patriots, and I've been here before with them) that the AFC East race is over :agree:

Like I said, It's all over:boo hoo:. On paper we should beat the Bills and if other results go our way we could sneek the last wild card spot but going into that game on a run of bad, bad losses aint going to be doing anyone any good.
Any team who gets held to 6 points at home against a second string Dolphins (in the cold) team don't deserve to make the play-offs, simples as that.

I'm not here to rub salt into your wounds but the Jets have been struggling for a while now. Overtime win against Detroit. Overtime win against Cleveland. Close game against Houston. Heavy loss to the Pats. Bad loss to Miami. I make no excuse for despising the Jets but that's not the reason that I believe their record flattered to deceive. On the surface their record was impressive but when you dig deeper you can see their position was unstable. Now the team has to deal with all this other BS i.e., the tripping scandal.

Good luck next year. :wink:

Dear god the Pack - Pats game was tight tonight! Our O only had 19minutes on the field!

Flynn did very well in the circumstances, had a fantastic game by all accounts. We werent at our previous best tonight but we did what was needed and Dan Connolly! What a run!

[Gatecrasher]

im posting this not seeing the game or knowing the score, i should get a chance to watch it tonight (i hope its worth it!).

I watched the end of the jets at steelers game, i thought Big Ben was going to do it, but didnt in the end, What did you all think of RedZone?

I watch it when the Pack aint playing as it gives you the best of all the games on but Sky Sports ruined it with their presenters and adverts :tsk tsk:

[Sylar]

Think the Packers can think themselves as very unlucky.

That was as poor as I've seen us all year, but unlike the games in New York and Cleveland, we still managed to sneak a result.

Flynn probably has a good future ahead of him - lead their offense well and made some good decisions.

It is worth it, as you took us damned close (sorry, I've posted the score above...) and were unlucky in the end.

I didn't like the Red Zone in all honesty - maybe it was the way it was done, but I like to watch a game, not micro-moments from all games. Granted, it means you see more action and less wasting of time, but it certainly didn't work with the adverts (which aren't supposed to be in there).

[HibsMax]

The Packers were a little unlucky in the end but experience played a HUGE part. There was time to get another down and even launch a ball into the end zone but Flynn didn't know what the hell he was doing. 4th and 1, 0 timeouts and about 20 seconds on the clock. Shame but I'm glad. :)

Pretty crappy performance by our O tonight but I'll take the W. I didn't see too much emotion from the players last night. I got the impression they didn't really care.

I kinda got the impression that some of them thought they just had to turn up.

After showing such commitment and focus vs the Jets and Bears, perhaps this was a bit of a come-down fixture for them yesterday (with no disrespect to the Packers).

I'd imagine, with the AFC East division winner title on the line next week, they'll be properly fired up for Buffalo. They'll need to be, as the Bills have been improving and are going for 3 straight wins against divisional rivals on the bounce.

Brady was certainly distracted on the sidelines last night, wasnt 100% fully focused. His eyes were everywhere and didnt look in command. I suppose every sportsman has those days and we still got a win.

Must say though Vince Wilfork was fantastic!

Not to worry, their no showing it next week. You will be happy to know they are showing the JETS game at 6:thumbsup:.

What can I say about last night? Other than WOW, that's why I love football. Eagles comeback was amazing and if Vick can stay injury free i reckon they could make the SB.
From what I've seen, with all their injuries I thought the Pack put up a good show last night and offered a little bit of hope to all the AFC teams:aok:.
As for the Jets, never saw that coming. How we can play so crap in the last two weeks and then go away to the Steelers and win (a place where we have never won):dunno:. Our O looked OK last night and the Sanchez TD was sweet, just what we needed. Keeping it simple and thank duck Polamalu wasn't playing as it would have been a diff story if he was. Again though, some of our play calling was a bit:confused:. Their whole last drive could have been avoided if we just ran the ball but we throw it on a third down stopping the clock before the two minute warning. As for our D:hilarious. I was giving them all sorts of abuse last night as they were utter dross for the first 3 quarters last night but then BANG, they pull it around in the fourth:flag:.
One more win and our date in the snow could be on:greengrin.

Tell me about it! Losing to that dross over the last two weeks :greengrin and then beating the Steelers! That's Jets football and to be fair to Ryan's teams they always seem bto get that win when it's badly needed. Scott was asking earlier what the Jets problem is when it comes to losing and to put it simply, it all boils down to Sanchez and the offense I think - the only blow up has been against the Patriots; our defense is always going to keep things close and give us a chance, however if Sanchez is off his game then it doesn't seem matter how well the D play.

As I said, I didn't think it worked, so I'm all for watching full games - I watched your game last night and enjoyed it - good open contest in the end, which I felt you deserved to win.

Eagles downing the Giants in the Meadowlands was pretty poetic - nothing better than watching Eli with a puzzled look on his face - the Giants' offense (from the sections we saw) looked very comfortable, and then relaxed, round about the same time the Giants D went to sleep - they had Vick in their pocket all first half too, but hey ho.

I still can't see ANYONE other than the Falcons representing the NFC teams in the Superbowl. They look untouchable just now :agree:

[Gatecrasher]

I just finished watching it, well worth it. A good game but it wasnt to be, I think Flynn did well, much better than last week but it must be a bit easier to start a game than come in mid way.

I was impressed with the performence from the team who had a look last week like they just had to turn up (like some saying above about the Pats this week)

One thing exited me is that with the injuries the Packers have had this season, if we can stay fit next season, I reckon we look like a conference or superbowl team.

Giants next week, a must win game to keep our very slim hopes alive.

Mon the vikings tonight :greengrin

Watched the Poinsetta Bowl in San Diego. Great game by San Diego State, their QB (Lyndey?) looks a great future prospect as does the RB Hillman. Navy looked solid as you would expect but just couldnt get the running game they rely on to work as they have previously.

Still a brilliant game!

Also, 5 players from the Buckeyes have been suspended (including Pryor!) however their 5 game suspension doesnt start until NEXT season so they can still play in the Bowl games. Surely if they have been found guilty they should be suspended from now? Pryor may drop out of College and go into the Draft this year.

What a game tonight, very very exciting stuff! Probably the most enjoyable game I've watched since taking up the sport a few months ago. Cardinals snatching the game with the just about the last kick of the game, all due to a carelessly missed extra point from the Cowboys kicker Buehler.

Seems ESPN had it wrong last week.

However, AFC East and first seed looks safe, with a crushing victory about to be posted over the Bills.

Fantastic game between the Bears and Jets just now - currently 38-34 to the the Bears in poor conditions (not quite as bad as 2 weeks ago mind).

Also, Vikings @ Eagles falls victim to the weather - doesn't often happen in the NFL but the snow on the Eastern seaboard is shocking just now!

Magic!

AFC East Champions, yet again - cracking team effort from the entire team, assisted by an MVP season from Brady. Hopeful we can maintain momentum into the postseason.

Another loss for the Jets - they'll be praying for a Redskins/Raiders wins to secure their playoff place.

I believe it hasnt happened before. It is a shame because some better teams will miss out on the playoffs.

On a side note, NC State (My boys!) are up 10 - 7 against Western Virginia in the Bowl game... GO PACK GO!
