WHO SHALL WIN?
Brady will be fine. Besides when SD takes care of Miami the Pats can take it easy if they need to. The run defense is really coming together. Remember how bad they looked in the first game against Buffalo? They looked like a totally different team today.
It appears to be.
I hope the Giants beat Philly in a big way.
Giants TD, 14-7.
Of course I do. This team's been beaten to a pulp for most of the season. Now they finally have a chance to get going. Look how nice it was to have a healthy Dillon and Faulk back!
Are we getting Matt Light back any time soon?
I think so. That'd be really nice.
I can see Jones paying 4 and a half million to get rid of Tuna Bill, but he'd have to pony up some 25 million to get Mack Browns contract.
That's some serious money for a coach with no NFL experience.
What really encourages me is that the run defense is coming together. It's taken sometime for Seymour and Bruschi to get back into game shape but now they're forcing teams into more third and longs. Belichick just needs to get the secondary in the best condition possible come January.
Assuming our defense keeps improving week to week it's possible!
I really wish we could get him back. Just his presence on the field changes how the opposing receivers run their routs.
To be honest though I think our problems had been more due to stopping the run. Even good offenses facing sub par secondaries can struggle if they're constantly facing third and longs because they can't run the ball.
It's nice that Brady finally has most of his weapons back. Without Dillon teams were just playing for the pass on every down. Just his presence forces the defense to respect the run.
KC scores again.
KC 14 - DAL 3.
Bledsoe to Terry Glenn 71 yard bomb for a TD, Dallas back within 4 points.
Green sacked , fumble Dallas runs back, knocked OB.
They scored again while I was eating. Bledsoe to Witten 26 yard TD, 17-14 Dallas.
LOL! You guys are funny.
Keep up the good work, 007.
