Around SBN: Jeremy Lin's Game-Winner Was Incredible, Worth Remembering

Sunday Game Open Thread

Of course, we have a couple of games to keep track of.  Jets need to beat Miami OR Jags to be victorious over Baltimore.  Cross your fingers.

I think that this game, overall, was a very good game by the Patriots. They weren’t flashy because they didn’t have to be. They did what they had to do to get in there, get the win, and get out. Great play calls by Belichick too (the punt was genius).

even the catches by Heath Evans

who figured he’d be uncovered???

Classy Finish

by Drew Brees, who needed 16 yards to take Dan (NO CHAMPIONSHIPS) Marino’s single season passing record. He could have thrown short for the record, but he went long for a chance at a meaningless (for the Saints) TD and came up just short.

Maybe next year guys when you get Tom Butt Chin Brady back. Man what a good year it was to not hear Tom Brady’s name every 5 minutes. I cannot wait to go down to Miami again!

Tough luck guys, have to improve that defense next year

It sucks that an 11-5 team can miss the playoffs but then you have the Broncos and Chargers hosting a playoff game.

11-5 and No Playoffs

What gives, man? This is worse than 18-1.

The Jaguars and especially the Jets are the most worthless, useless teams that have ever existed. Period. Fuck ’em both!

At Least

Favre seems to have tainted his reputation some, and maybe they’ll dump Mang-hemorrhoid.

Damn!

Marino gets to keep his record, and the Dolphins win. Bad night to be a Pats’ Fan.

Still proud of our Pats

Just a play or two away from winning the division despite losing the 2007 NFL MVP and a ton of other major players.

Jerod Mayo got an entire season of experience under his belt and Gary Guyton looks like a keeper. Best of luck to Cassel wherever he goes next year… he’s earned himself a starting job somewhere in this league.

by NESilver on Dec 28, 2008 7:45 PM EST reply actions  

Cassel

Hear me out on this, even though I could get chewed out. Had the Pats made the playoffs and gone all the way, what would’ve Pioli and Kraft do as far as pick between Brady and Cassel? In that sense, I’m kinda glad it didn’t have to be that way. Emphasis on kinda.

by R_Adragna on Dec 28, 2008 7:51 PM EST up reply actions  

yeah, such a problem to have

it would have been the topic of discussion at our Super Bowl party, and again when we all got together to watch the DVD (3 games to glory pt. IV).

Keep the faith!

One more bit of silver

is redemption, of a sort, for Chad Pennington, a classy lad who was treated shabbily by the J-E-T-Scum. Granted, he’d have done no better than Favre if the Jets were still calling plays for him. Sparano did a great coaching job, and Parcells was amazingly low profile, which helped the Dolphins immeasurably.

by rgbyref on Dec 28, 2008 9:09 PM EST reply actions  

we were talking about that

If we had no stake in the game, we definitely would have been rooting for Pennington easily over the great-and-powerful Favre.

Keep the faith!
