No chance. His winning streak is more down to Denver's defense than anything else - he's just plain awful to watch.Quote:

Fiery exchange between Bill O'Neill and Brady on the sidelines apparently, but it's high pressure time of the year, so not a shock that patience is wearing thin.
It's frustrating - I've been in the US since last Friday and both days there've been football, I've missed it due to one reason or another (symposium at Berekely last Sunday and coming back from a weekend in the Redwood Forest/Pacific Coast today)!
Unbelievable :greengrin:Quote:

Huge "W" for the Giants, timeout called by Couglin to freeze the kicker was perfect! Division is ours to lose now :greengrin

The two most important attributes in a QB are a) the ability to take your teammates into battle for you (leadership) and b) the desire to get the win. Thats what Tebow seems to have. Throwing the prettiest spiral doesnt substitute for not winning , just ask Dan Marino. Jim Mcmahon threw an ugly ball but he won the superbowl ring that eluded Marino.Quote:

That said, I can't see their winning run continuing against the Patriots. :thumbsup:
Not just the last two games...watch MLB Harris in this 95 yard game winning drive against the Jets. Theyre all keying on him but they cant stop him. http://m.youtube.com/#/watch?desktop_uri=%2Fwatch%3Fv%3D8KR638W3tRc&v=8KR 638W3tRc&gl=GBQuote:

Don't have ESPN so never saw the match but have just watched the highlights and it looked good. Still think the wildcard is beyond them but the recent form is a lot more promising.Quote:

We've lost Leonard though and although he's not the best, it's a massive loss for us. We have 3 very hard games to go and maybe, just maybe 2 wins will see us sneak it, if results go our way.Quote:

Tebow has won how many games in OT? If he is so good, surely he would win games BEFORE having to settle for a field goal in OT.
Falcons trounce Jacksonville last night and take a step closer to securing their berths in the playoffs:
Jacksonville 14-41 Atlanta
Big weekend coming up - a win in Mile High secures us our 9th AFC East Championship in 11 years, which is an astonishing achievement. I recall how excited I was when we FINALLY won our first since I'd started following the Pats, way back in 2001!
Our record against Denver is abysmal though, so I can't say I'm 100% confident - I'm pretty sure we've only beaten the Bronco's twice in something ridiculous like 18 games since 1969 and I'm fairly confident that Brady has only beaten them once in 7?
If we fail to win, a Pittsburgh win vs Sexy Rexy's Jets will suffice :agree:
Can't happen, keep dreaming mate.Quote:

I don't think it's a bad thing to be honest - I still expect Green Bay to feature in the Superbowl this year and losing now prevents the added pressures of "unbeaten" discussions.Quote:

Indianapolis finally get a win - how bad must Tennessee be!!!
Maybe your right, but it shows GB aint as untouchable as previously thought. The Offensive line was a disaster today. I'm looking forward to Pats v Broncos :thumbsup:Quote:

We're getting owned by both the rush AND the pass, with several tackles being high!!!
Tebow driving the Broncos well thus far :agree:
I fear a long night ahead.
Our defense is easily one of the worst I've ever seen in the NFL :agree:
Wow - 248 yards total offensive yards for the Broncos in the 1st QUARTER!
I fail to understand how our coaching staff have failed to address our defense all bloody season.
If we finally tie up our berth, I can't confess that I'm overly looking forward to the post-season.
Packers lose to the Chiefs and Colts beat the Titans :greengrin oh and Tebow has showed up early in the game v the pats , what a strange day so far :dizzy:
It's a cracking game to watch though, I think new Orleans are a good super bowl shout, drew brees is hitting top form
We can score on every drive for the remainder of this game, but unless we sort out the other side of the field, we'll lose.
Latest:
New England 14-16 Denver
Detroit 7-14 Oakland
NY Jets 0-28 Philadelphia - :confused:
Cleveland 10-0 Arizona
And just like that!
Boom! Well done Don!
Can't believe BB never challenged that call - conceivably looked like a good catch to me!
Nevertheless, NE 17-16 Denver.
2nd turnover in 2 possessions from Denver - cheers Timmy boy! :thumbsup:
Eagles letting the jets back into it
