Lovely TD from Green-Ellis: 24-14 Patriots
Superb challenge by BB - he was out.
FG Attempt is good: 27-14 Patriots.
TD Jets: 21-27
That should hopefully about do it:
FG: 30-21 Patriots - 1:02 left on the clock with no timeouts left.
Final: New England Patriots 30-21 New York Jets
A good close game, but a good home win for the Pats, going to 4-1 alongside Buffalo. The way we transferred to the running game and hammered the Jets D in the 4th quarter was very impressive indeed.
We had a few players missing for the game today, so when we start to get a healthy roster in the coming weeks, I think we'll go from strength to strength.
Dallas at Foxborough next week, which again, won't be easy - our upcoming schedule is pretty damned hard all around to be honest!
Are you guy's watching the end of the Broncos game, Jesus.
So the Patriots are now a running team, who knew. Don't know if it's down to their D making us look OK today but I'm starting to feel better. Doubt we will make the play-offs but the rest of the season should be better to watch (The way them Buckeyes are playing I need something) and if anything even though we lost I'm less apprehensive.
Soz but Brandon Lloyd made one of the best catches I've seen and Tebow was running about like a mad man. Was exciting stuff :agree:.Quote:

Maybe it will take a winning record to win the NFC west this season:greengrin
Certainly looks like the 49'ers have improved, but the other teams in the NFC West look dross - St Louis and Arizona will both be lucky to win a couple and I can't see Seattle winning many more than 4 or 5 (though I must confess, I didn't give them a prayer vs New York). They might make the playoffs, but I doubt it'll go beyond that, as there are a LOT of really good teams in the NFC - Detroit Lions winning the NFC North or at least getting to the NFC Championship game though a WC spot would be an ace turnaround! Anyway, looking forward to seeing San Fran vs St Louis in December when I'm over there! First live NFL game in the states for a while!Quote:

Lads, in the abscence of Peyton Manning who do you personally rate as the best 5 or so quarterbacks in the NFL now? ARod is probably most peoples number 1 but after that? Brady and.......
They were my pick to win the NFC West this year (having said that I picked them the two prior - eventually I was going to be right!) theyve been threatening to do this for a couple of years now. Weak division and really theirs for the taking. Alex Smith was their achilles heel but he seems to be putting it together - I put it all down to Harbaugh - great coach. Thats the Niners jinxed then!Quote:

There are actually a lot of good QB's in the league this year.
Aaron Rodgers (GB) - 14 TD's, passed for 1721 yards and thrown only 2 picks this season
Tom Brady (NE) - 14 TD's, passed for 1874 yards but thrown 6 picks this season
Drew Brees (NO) - 12 TD's, passing for 1769 yards with 5 picks so far
Matt Stafford (DET) - 11 TD's, passed for 1217 yards and only thrown 3 picks
Eli Manning (NYG) - 11 TD's, passing for 1486 yards and 5 picks
Cam Newton, Ryan Fitzpatrick, Matt Shcaub and Matt Hasselbeck also deserve a nod for the numbers they're putting up thus far:
Cam Newton (CAR) - 7 TD's, 1610 yards and 6 picks (not bad at all for a rookie QB in the one of the worst teams in the NFC)
Ryan Fitzpatrick (BUF) - 10 TD's, 1233 yards passing and 4 picks
Matt Schaub (HOU) - 9 TD's, 5 INT and 1377 yards on the year
Matt Hasselbeck (TEN) - 9 TD's, passing for 1414 yards and only 4 picks thus far
Phillip Rivers, Ben Roethlisberger, Tony Romo and Mark Sanchez are all a little underwhelming right now - all good QB's, but not necessarily having great years to date:
Rivers has thrown for a decent yardage (1500+) but has had more turnovers than touchdowns, Romo looks good in games until his increasingly frequent 4th quarter meltdown, with 7 TD's for the year, but only 1200 yards passing, Roethlisberger is 8 TD/6 Int, with 1300+ yards passing and Sanchez has an 8/5 split, with only 1200 yards passing (no real surprise I guess, seeing as the Jets prefer to run the football).
Mines is better :wink:.Quote:

It's fairly horrible - I imagine it must be a bit like being a Jets fan to be honest - we've dominated you for years, but when the win finally came last year, how did that feel? That's how good I'll feel when I finally get to see us win a game vs the Buckeyes. We never won when I studied there, and we haven't ever won since!Quote:

However, we improve each year and I like the look of the program under Brady Hoke - we'll continue to improve and I dare say Ohio State's recruitment might well suffer as a result of a very poor year and the damage the rules violation will have absolutely done to the school!

Ive never liked the Broncos but you've just got to warm to Tim Tebow. Hes like a bigger tougher more charismatic Elway. Id play him every week.Quote:

Excuse the pun but it'll be just their luck that they end up with the top draft pick and get to pick up Manning's successor.
Hmmmm - are you suggesting they're throwing games to end up with the worst record, thus defaulting them the no.1 draft pick...:hmmm:Quote:

Looking forward to the NCAA matchup in East Lansing this week - we haven't beaten the Spartans in EL since 2007, so it's time to bring Paul home :greengrin
A few decent matchups this weekend:
Alabama @ Ole Miss, Oklahoma State @ Texas and Ohio State @ Illinois are also quite eye-catching fixtures.
Superb opening drive, followed by an awful defensive outing and poor second offensive drive has the game in East Lansing tied at 7-7, with the wind playing havoc with our offense this quarter!
Not having a great feeling about today, despite a decent start for RB Vincent Smith and Shoelace.
We just can't employ our passing game on account of the conditions in this quarter.
just back from the hibs game, fingers crossed its a good oneQuote:

14-7 MSU - failing to do anything with the fumble recovery was poor. Can't understand why Hoke is sporadically leaving Robinson out in favour of Gardener - it's not working!!!
(Another) shocking call from the officials - that was a clear fumble, but they deemed it a forward, incomplete pass! Bull**** call!
We had 2 officials for their second TD who disagreed it was a TD (one called it, one called it out of bounds) and they didn't even review it!
Ugh - I can whinge about officials all I like, but we weren't good enough to get past a very solid looking Michigan State D.
#4 Wisconsin 59-7 Indiana
# 23 Michigan State 28-14 #11 Michigan

Some interesting scores developing thus far:
Buffalo Bills 24-27 New York Giants (Final)
Carolina Panthers 17-31 Atlanta Falcons (Final)
Jacksonville Jaguars 13-15 Pittsburgh Steelers (Final)
San Francisco 49'ers 22-19 Detroit Lions

St Louis Rams 3-24 Green Bay Packers (Final)
Dallas Cowgirls 0-3 New England Patriots
Houston Texans 0-7 Baltimore Ravens
New Orleans Saints 0-0 Tampa Bay Bucs
Cleveland Browns 0-7 Oakland Raiders
Can't remember the last time I was happy to see a NYC team winning! Bills halted at 4-2 and a great chance for the Patriots to go top of the AFC East!
Buffalo Bills 24-27 New York Giants (Final)
Carolina Panthers 17-31 Atlanta Falcons (Final)

San Francisco 49'ers 25-19 Detroit Lions (Final)
Philadelphia Eagles 20-13 Washington Redskins (Final)
St Louis Rams 3-24 Green Bay Packers (Final)
Dallas Cowgirls 3-3 New England Patriots (this game has been turnover central thus far!)
Houston Texans 0-7 Baltimore Ravens
New Orleans Saints 7-3 Tampa Bay Bucs
Cleveland Browns 0-7 Oakland Raiders
Sean Payton has taken a sore one, after one of his receivers clattered into him at the sideline, into the outside of his knee.
I'm f***ing despairing at how bad our handling has been! 2 fumbles and an interception for us, and a fumble and interception for Dallas.
So the Giants can beat the Bills but not the mighty Seahawks? Enjoying the Seahawks' bye-week, it means I can watch Redzone in peace without having to stress every time they cut to our match!
San Fran eek out another 3 points - bye bye Detroit's unbeaten record.Quote:

TD Patriots, Brady to Welker, following a good challenge from BB.
10-3
20-16 to the Patriots... Take that!
I was knackered last night so only saw about half way into the later games.
6-0 Pack! The D Needs to get their act together though :agree:
Same actually - the Patriots game was poor, so I didn't bother staying up to watch it through.Quote:

In other college sports news the basketball coaches poll has been released and North Carolina are number 1. Kentucky are number 2 and are bringing in 4 Mcdonalds All Americans in this recruiting class. Wonder how much Calipari pays them :greengrin

11 votes for SJU - pleasantly surprised at that, don't rate our chances with such a young team which has lost 3 big recruits for the first term already. We do however have a player called God's Gift though so perhaps we'll get some devine assistance.Quote:

Big shout out for Herron. Really struggled with our QB's since Pryor and still not sold on Miller but getting the running game up and running will help. Not at all happy with the whole Posey carry on. Their tacking it a bit far if you ask me. Still he should be back for the game against the *********. Got Wisconsin next week and anyone not tuned into NCAA should have a look, the whole Scarlet theme is amazing :top marks.

no redzone on sky tonight?
Strange, there doesn't seem to be - maybe for the later games?
I'm VERY surprised at how the Wembley game is panning out - I felt sure that the Bucs would have won this without much issue today, particularly seeing as the Bears didn't arrive in London until Thursday night!
*sigh* - Chargers toss away an 11 point lead over the Jests, who lead 24-21.
Houston are absolutely obliterating Tennessee!
Bucs get it back to 21-18, having trailed 21-5 at one point!

Tim Tebow working his magic for the Broncos...15-15 in OT...what a finish this is.
Packers respond quickly. Rodgers throws to 6 different receivers in the drive to level the game! Unbelievable how many options the Packers have.
What a comeback from the Broncos to win 18-15, from 15-0 down!
Miami are laughably bad this season - ALMOST as bad as the Colts :greengrin
Lots of pundits are going to look really stupid over Tim Tebow. Boomer Esiason is a prime example. Its a peculiar kind of snobbery that says a scrambling quarterback cant be a NFL star. Fran Tarkenton had the same thing; hes a freak, he cant pass, hes not a team player etc etc. People started taking notice when he broke the alltime passing yardage records though. Theres a lot of early parallels between them IMO, although Tebow could probably have been a linebacker in those days hes so big and strong.Quote:

I cant remember a season with so many emergency room teams. Colts, Dolphins, Rams, Cardinals, Vikings, Seahawks all barely breathing.
Thats 2 defeatd in a row for Detroit then, Ill be interested to ser how they bounce back, I recall the Vikings missing the playoffs in 2003 having started the season 6-0.
Carson Palmers career ad a Raider starts off pretty poor throwing multiple piclks off the bench, they might regret trading high draft picks for him, lets see........once he gets rid of the rust
Oh TSSF no danger that Manning comes back this season imo. They wont make the playoffs so it would be of no benefit to try and rush him back as far as I can gauge.
It has been several days now... and 62-7 is still making me laugh!
I see TO is on the lookout for a new club, having run a full practice in his hometown, inviting clubs to come and watch him.
Shame nobody turned up other than ESPN.
In all seriousness, I'd rather we had taken a shot on TO than Ocho - much more accomplished player with an equally big attitude problem. The Chad gamble isn't one that's worked in my eyes.
Stupid question but just how legit is this and how does it work? Looking at going over to the states and been looking at tickets and still don't get the print it yourself idea. Is that not open to counterfeit goods? and don't fancy going all that way when all I've got is a photo copy type thing :confused:. Also because StubHub don't post to the UK do you need to give them these details or did you use family/friends?Quote:

The not-posting-to-the-UK thing is a bit annoying, but a lot of the options have "download now", which is where you get the e-copy.
It's not like a touting website either, as you can chose any price range and pick seats according to your budget.
Looks like our first game in the Foxborough snow isn't going to be too far away, as winter hits New England early!

I was just having a quick glance back over this thread since it got underway last year and I'm proud with how long and well informed we've kept it going.
There's a good mixture of information, updates and friendly banter and grows by the week (a bit like the Colts' "points against" column). Interestingly enough with that parentheses, if you go back over the first 2 pages, we pretty much all tipped the Colts (one of the "regulars") to be thereabouts at playoffs/superbowl time. What a difference a year makes!

Mrs Bollah is working in Boston this week, texted an hour ago saying its heavy snow in the city.Quote:

Personally, I think it's time for the non-football schools (and Notre Dame) to break ties with what's left of the Big East and start looking after themselves rather than be held back by a sport they don't participate in.
I think I spend more time on this thread than any other on here nowadays!Quote:
