I could only watch part of the 4th quarter but time of possession killed Dallas. It put a lot of pressure on the defense and they ran out of gas. I'm disappointed but I know they can bounce back. The real test will be against the Colts for NE.Quote:

I'm lovin' the Saints taking the Seahawks to the woodshed right now. Go NO!:D
:( freaking cowboys, I thought we had a chance there when we jumped up 24-21.
At least the Seahawks are getting spanked, can make my day somewhat better.
I just don't see how NE does it every year. It seems like they can just stock up at every position.
Blah. My team sucks.
I don't think that they overpay.Quote:

I usually on watch the Lions games since that's all I have time for. Since the Lions were on a bye I watched the Patriots Cowboys game. Those teams are in a different league. Its not about the score, you just watch the talent they have on the field. I know theres a lot of parity in the NFL, but not for every team.
Moss isn't overpaid, they got him on a freaking bargain, especially because he hasn't been selfish this year, either. He was overpaid like a mother in Oakland, though.Quote:

I missed the Seattle/New Orleans game yesterday.
Looks like Bush had a pretty good game as the featured back. Sounds like most of his yards also came in the 1st half... which is usually opposite of when backs seem to get most of their yards (i.e. late in the game when the team is trying to run out the clock and the defence is getting worn down).
My question with Bush is... did he run between the tackles with authority?
Bush looked good in the first quarter, hit the holes pretty hard and ran forward. He and the rest of NO did nothing in the second half, but the damage was done.
KSUOHIO - cameras, it's all about the cameras.
R'AGGRE - yeah and he got 100 yards, imagine that...
pats can go undefeated, probably will if they play all their starters till the end... ridiculous.
only real challenge is INDY... manning will bring it.
I think that he ran for like 97... at like 5.1 per carry. Also received for liek another 40. Close to 100. A very good day by the looks of it.Quote:

I think that they will beat Indy this year. I think that for a few reasons:Quote:
only real challenge is INDY... manning will bring it.
1. They have been beat by Indy the past few times and will want to re-establish themselves as the alpha male of the league again.
2. Brady actually has great receivers to throw to this year... better than he has ever had in the past.
3. I still think that Indy's defence is weak. As I stated with the Dallas game, NE is a much more well balanced team.
4. They have had success against Manning in the past. If there is anyone who knos how to beat him... it's NE.
Just my thoughts/speculations on that matchup. The game still needs to be played.
Indy will be tough, but as of right now NE is a juggernaut egads.
