Rocky Landing

He and a defender got in each other's face, and Cog pushed him. Kinda stupid. He had way too many penalties today. On the bright side, Hughs didn't have any!

Also, O'Leary. Had those two great catches, and great blocking. And, MAN, Woods is one Hell-of-a blocker! Yes! Yes it was!

Not to take away from this win, or anything, but I started to get the impression that the Pats* were playing this game to preserve their stars for Brady's* return. Edelman was targeted how many times, six? Gronk, I think, two. Hogan twice. And little to no urgency late in the game.

This is an amusing thread. But, if I may take it seriously for a moment... On offense: -Convert on third down. -Control the clock. -Do not let Belichick* control the tempo. On defense: -Pressure the QB (obviously), but more importantly, -Stop Blount. -Please, Rex, don't try to outsmart Belichick* with stupid, "exotic" schemes! If I see Hughs chasing Gronk downfield again, I'll need to purchase a new TV on Monday. I can't afford it!

We're talking about Duke Williams, the back up safety for the Bills, not the WR for the Rams, right? We've seen Duke make some real bone-headed plays in Buffalo.

In all seriousness (and I can't believe I am actually asking this question), please, you, or 4merhad2mer, or anyone else, explain to me a scenario in which we would be saying, "Gosh, if only we had lost to the Cardinals, we'd be in the playoffs..." (hint: such a scenario doesn't exist!!!) Oh, Jezus Christ... I've been sucked in!... How did this happen???

Yeah...I'm cool...

As I understand it: He's an incredible athlete, and about as sharp as a bag of wet mice (to quote Foghorn Leghorn).

BUT??? 1 + 1 (still) = 2... Right? RIGHT??? Jezus God, Somebody please help me!!!

As I recall, he was named the starter, and was out-performed by Fred Jackson.

Why? Are you a Jets fan?

How about Jim "The Deflator" McNally? Let's make him the HC!

Same number. Just different people.

And utterly useless as a blocker.

This looked like a pivotal game for AW to me. There's a point after a scary injury like AW had that some athletes don't get over. This seemed like the game where he exorcised those ghosts.

My wife, and her extended family are from Boston (all Pats* fans), so we spend a bit of time in that neck of the woods every year. And, from what I've seen, I would definitely agree with you. No one up there has a clue.

I know you are, but what am I?

How awesome would it be if Rex got up in front of the podium and said, "I'm just here so I won't get fined...?"

Gross...

One of the most bizarre things I have ever read on this site. OP: "1 + 1 = 1.75" TBD: "No! 1 + 1 = 2" OP: "No, if the first one were the same as the last one, then the other isn't worth as much, so the second one isn't one." TBW: Tries to explain the math behind 1 + 1 = 2. All explanations are, of course, more complicated than the initial concept of 1 + 1 = 2, which does not deter anyone from flexing their mathematic prowess on the finer points, and logic behind 1 + 1 = 2. OP: "...nuh uh!" I'm pretty sure this is all parody... But, I'm not 100% sure... Somebody help me!!!

Regarding Shady: He also threw down a couple of outstanding blocks during this game. And, Aaron Williams also had a great game.

Isn't the "rex is an idiot" idea being discussed in, like, every other thread?

I'm not upset by Hughs' penalties at all, today. If Palmer's helmet hadn't come off on that one sack, the penalty never would have been called. It looked like bad luck to me n the replay. He didn't really grab the helmet-- it just got swept off, and the refs will almost always throw a flag if the QBs helmet comes off. Kujo's another story. But, I'm happy with his progress, otherwise.

Gotta give it up for Graham, too. He had some great plays, and was a difference maker. Loved seeing him get a sack. As Bill from NYC often pointed out: Graham gives 110% every play. And, while on the subject of safeties: AW is back! Like many on here, I was concerned that he would play scared this season, and became even more suspicious when in an interview, he talked about playing "smart," and less physical. Well, those fears are allayed, big time.

Yeezus, indeed!
