[Finatic]

Can't get the game. Has Welker been in since he fumbled or did he reaggravate his injury????

He is playing and was targetted once with Cassel in...........Cassel has looked for Morris short and Moss long so far....

 

[HellToupee]

So, how bad does Brodie Croyle suck?

3 drops by Bowe another by Charles

 

[jurrassic]

Croyle is awful. How can this leadership team think he is the answer.

Not bad enough for Herminator to give up on him. Go figure.

 

[Bri]

Pats can't cover Tony G

I haven't even noticed who is playing opposite Bowe almost like why bother putting a WR in

I liked O'Connell better than Cassell in preseason. Cassell looks OK though

 

[Biabreakable]

I guess I can't downgrade Moss yet.

Moss always seems to do well with backup QBs.1. Moss is so good.2. A backup QB may not be in as much of a flow with the total offense or as talented as the starter, but it's hard for them to go wrong throwing it up to Moss.3. Because of #2 the backup QB can develop tunnel vision causing Moss's targets to go up with the backup compared to the starter.

Croyle looks better than when I saw him last year. For a not so muscle bound guy, wow does he have an arm. I think that everytime I see him.Announcers are right that he looks terrific on the run. Herm's gotta have him roll out often then.Chiefs can't run and keep trying leaving Croyle in tough spots. He's gotta throw to someone other than Tony G and Bowe though.

 

[Smeagol]

As a Brady, Johnson and Welker owner, this can't get any worse.

3 good points.I'm staying optimistic on this.

 

[Tackling Dummies]

Croyle dropped like a bag of dirt, left the field holding his arm...

what he saidplus I don't think Cassell's so nervous. It might be like week 5 of the preseason to him. If Brady's out, we'll see if nerves set in preparing to be the starter and thinking about it all week.

[Workhorse]

Cassel looking good on this drive.

 

[Andy Hicks]

Damon Huard warming up. New England having a good posession

 

[Biabreakable]

I'm wishing I never would have read anything indicating that the Pats were not happy with Cassell. That information caused me to drop him.

 

[Clifton]

Maroney - FIRED UP!

 

[thejag]

Maroney really looks good today. Nice blend of backs this week.

 

[HellToupee]

Morris looks really good

 

[Clifton]

This offense is settling in. Eerily similar to 2001

 

[mcintyre1]

Damnit NE... why can't you let Maroney score some TDs?

 

[Workhorse]

Nice balanced run/pass drive there by the Pats. That's what they'll need to do if Brady's down for any length of time beyond this game.

 

[Markus P Dub]

By Brodie

 

[Workhorse]

Brady or not, this game is pretty one-sided. A couple of fluke fumbles by Welker and Moss in KC territory away from this being a total blowout.

 

[Hipple Long Ware & Peete]

Drop #3 for Bowe, no catches

at least he's getting targets then?

 

[Young 8]

is Horrible Croyle done for the year ??

 

[Hipple Long Ware & Peete]

so whos playing qb then? Brody ?

 

[prosopis]

LJ really bad or NE defense good?

 

[Workhorse]

Huard.

 

[Workhorse]

Bowe with an EXCELLENT TD catch. Wow.

 

[SeaDogStat]

Brady officially out for remainder of game per Pats

 

[Tackling Dummies]

TD Bowe

 

[prosopis]

LJ really bad or NE defense good?

good question

 

[jurrassic]

Of course its not Gonzalez on the td. Huard is much better at running the offense.

 

[Young 8]

so....Croyle DONE and the Chiefs score a TD

coincidence ??

 

[The Jacket]

LJ really bad or NE defense good?

20% to each of those two factors, 60% pathetic OL.If anyone wants to know how good Dwayne Bowe is, WATCH HIM. Do NOT judge by his stats. Good Lord the Chiefs need a QB.

 

[Workhorse]

Ellis Hobbs with a HUGE kickoff return into KC territory.

 

[Hipple Long Ware & Peete]

Huard to bow 13-yd td.

 

[Tackling Dummies]

Ellis Hobbs with a HUGE kickoff return into KC territory.

Wasted position, sack by Derrick Johnson stops drive.

 

[el-gato-grande]

Huard starting is like an early Christmas present for LJ and Gonzales owners.

 

[Workhorse]

Not with throws like that, he's not. That was a TERRIBLE pick Huard just threw into heavy coverage.

 

[jurrassic]

Unbelievable

 

[qimqam]

Did KC forget that LJ is their best player ... Down by 4 he hasn't touched the ball in the 4th q

 

[Tackling Dummies]

Something to remember: Maroney's healthy, has not been overworked and is not on the field on a game clinching drive.

 

[Tackling Dummies]

Holy ###. KC has the ball in the 10

 

[Tackling Dummies]

less than a minute to go

 

[Tackling Dummies]

Bowe drops a TD

 

[HellToupee]

could have BB been flagged for calling the TO at the 10

 

[Young 8]

Huard >>>>>>>> Croyle

 

[omally]

This is what happens when you underestimate the Patriots.

No, this is what happens when you are KC.

Ouch.
