Week 17 - New England Patriots at New York Giants (1 Viewer)

Ballgame...

Love the Pats fans talking up a blowout and getting fired up about their team being down five. GB them.

 

[Bri]

That was an impressive block by Welker.

I wonder how all those 'they gave up too much for Welker" guys feel now

 

[Jeff Haseley]

Pats hater here, how was there not a flag for hitting Brady in the head?

 

[Statorama]

Excellent block by Welker there, and a terrific night by him overall. The Welker signing is being lost in the shuffle of the perfect season chase and the Moss/Brady records.

 

[Smeagol]

There's no way the Pats are running this ball....on any down inside the 5

Brady's pissed. I'm sure he'll tell Maroney that he should have pulled a Westbrook there.

 

[Bri]

keep kicking to him, he'll never return it for a TD

 

[Jeff Pasquino]

We've secretly replaced Dominick Hixon with Devin Hester....

Agreed. The scary thing is this is only the first year with all of them playing together. (Brady, Moss, Welker, Stallworth)

Stallworth is just a decoy, he'll be gone in 08

 

[Newslang]

I can understand and agree with giving Jacobs a rest once in a while, but Bradshaw should be the one substituting for him, not Droughns.

All I can think is that Coughlin doesn't want a young guy like that to make a mistake in the game. Something like that would really mess with his confidence long term.

Bradshaw is so much more dangerous then Hixon, he has some kind of vision like Hester does, and the speed of course.

 

[Iwannabeacowboybaby!]

Not backing off my Patriots win stance but if I were a Pats fan, I wouldn't be too upset to lose here. Could be the best thing for them with regard to winning a Super Bowl. Getting scared by Philly is one thing. Actually losing a game is an entirely different level.J

Think so, I kind of respectfully disagree. They've had some closer games here towards the end of the season and I think the one thing they can hang their hat on is no matter what, they've found a way to win. In fact, other teams almost feel like NE is going to come back and win and if that MYTH is dispelled with a victory tonight, I think not only will the Patriots lose that confidence that they can't be beat but their oppononents heading into the playoffs will also get a confidence boost, that this team CAN be beat by a good team on a given night.

 

[Statorama]

For as good a game as Jacobs has played, that drop was huge.

 

[Bri]

Is it just me or does Toomer only catch difficult passes?

Where the hell did I say anything about a blowout? I honestly think the G-men are out of shells.

 

[CrossEyed]

Eli looking poised out there.

 

[Newslang]

Eli just fires it in there sometimes..

 

[Bri]

For as good a game as Jacobs has played, that drop was huge.

how many weeks have you said that?

 

[Jeff Haseley]

Clutch play there. Stand in your seat kind of drama happening on every third down, for both teams now.

 

[Jiggyonthehut]

Cool Hand Luke Eli in the pocket.

 

[Jeff Haseley]

two steps forward....three steps back.

 

[Cptchaz]

Allright...now don't allow a big 3rd down play

 

[Statorama]

And there's the difference....Brady sidesteps pressure and throws the ball away, Manning takes the sack

 

[Bri]

Every sack you could hear Eli say aaaahhhh

 

[PantherPower]

he comes the go ahead TD by the Pats..

 

[Bri]

two steps forward....three steps back.

UP

Excellent block by Welker there, and a terrific night by him overall. The Welker signing trade is being lost in the shuffle of the perfect season chase and the Moss/Brady records.

Remember, they gave up more for Welker (to a division rival) than they did for Moss.

 

[Statorama]

Really? Every play seems like a march toward an inevitable Patriot win.

Really worked out well for the Dolphins too

[Squinting Cyclops]

As sick as I am hearing about the revered "72 Dolphins" ...a "good" team but certainly not one of the greatest we've seen in the NFL, I sure would love to see the Patriots lose this game. They are a great team, and they ARE one of the best the NFL has ever seen, I just dont like them. Any other NFL team that was 15-0 (except the Eagles or God forbid another Miami team) I would probably be rooting for the "perfect season".

just for the record, there is only One who is perfect

 

[Cptchaz]

Why are they even running?

That was great MAroney march towards a win, for -3 yards.

I don't love the Pats, but I don't mind them winning. Sure I'm jealous, but Tom Brady seems like a stand up guy and watching him and Peyton Manning play is just incredible.

 

[Bobcat10]

Brady threw that one bad on purpose.

Coach Ditka?

 

[Jeff Haseley]

One thing I've noticed is the corners are playing tight coverage off the LOS on the Pats WRs. Some teams take the 7-yard drop approach and they get burned as a result. That's not happening tonight. Lots of over the middle stuff if a WR is covered.

 

[Jeff Pasquino]

So much for this game not mattering to either side.

100% effort out of both - I'm hoping both stay healthy.

After listening to Mercury Morris today, I really hope that someone breaks that record, just not the Patriots.

 

[mad sweeney]

No way he got that TO in time.

Is that reviewable like the 12 men penalty?

I think the fact that the 72 Dolphins weren't a great team makes their accomplishment more endearing.

 

[CrossEyed]

[Bryant Gumb]

It would appear that Tom Brady has the ability to stop time by putting his hands perpendicular to each other.

Manning and Favre I love, Brady is too smug for my liking....yes that is just my opinion.

unless a coach called it But I don't think so. So do the good teams get those kind of calls too?

 

[Pack43]

Did Gumbel just say "they'll give him a gain of 1" after Maroney's 5-yard loss brought up a 3rd and 9?

 

[bc0312]

The fix is in...This officiating is out of hand

 

[Iwannabeacowboybaby!]

He didn't get that timeout off, but you know what, I'm glad they used it. Timeouts could be huge at the end of the game and that one's down the tubes.

They're either going to get a first down on a big pass play here or not, so the 5 yard penalty IMO isn't huge. Either gonna be a 15 yard completion plus or an incompletion here.

I say bring the house on a blitz, cover deep and tackle underneath.

The ref threw a flag before Brady called it!!!!
