Sunday Late Games Open Thread
Have at it gang. Colts are 6-0, KC still stinks, Favre and the boys lose to Pitt, and Cleveland remains in the toilet. Buffalo has Carolina and New York has the Raiders. Miami has a tough one against New Orleans. I think that's the game to watch.

Buffalo and Jets up 7-0, Miami 0-0
Would really like to see Miami-New Orleans, but we are getting Falcons-Cowboys here.
(As long as you don’t get Jets-Raiders you can’t really complain, I guess.)
Birds and Boys here as well.
I’d watch the Jets Raiders just on the chance that Oakland has more than one Philly game in them.

I had Jets - Raiders
It was some ugly football.
My life has been a trivial pursuit. Trivia: where three roads meet.

that Leon Washington break was horrible
he’s already had surgery and is out for the year.
Keep the faith!
Ricky Williams charity bowl?
Maybe he slipped a little something in the Saints water.

lots of “strategery” in my rooting today. going for bills over panthers because of the 2nd round pick. pretty smart, ehh!!!!
lol well you should still want the Bills to lose that way it helps the Pats in the division.

But if the Bills lose, how will they ever manage to finish 7-9?
I figure if they can improve to that point, Dick Jauron will get a reprieve, dooming the Bills to another 7-9 season next year.
lol I like stopping over here.

Looks more like the Saints are self-destructing
Two picks and only 4 completions by Brees? And giving up loooong TD runs suggests poor coverage and bad defensive scheming. Look at Ricky Williams’ rushing average, aha.

I would love to have a running game...
…as consistent as the Dolphins’.

Aha, Green Bay hammered Mangini's Browns
Derek Anderson – 12 from 29, 99 yards, 2 sacks and 1 int… didn’t get pulled. Awesome. Brady Quinn must be rated so badly it’s not funny.
I'm kind of happy for McD...
…Orton seems like a classy guy.
by Richard Hill on Oct 25, 2009 5:24 PM EDT up reply actions
Cutler puts up big numbers but doesn't win; Orton puts up average numbers and wins
Gee, I wonder which outcome a coach would rather have.
I left for a little bit but I'm back again.
Our game is really good….for us that is.

The Saints fans were speculating about going 16-0
I told them that one of the side effects of being undefeated was increasing amounts of Don Shula. The condition gets really painful when bouts of Mercury Morris start appearing.
Keep the faith!
NO going backwards, apparently.
Surprised by the Jets score. I mean, I know it’s Oakland, but wow. I’m not wanting New Jersey to get feelin’ healthy…

Good tape for the Pats, though
You can see exactly what Miami is doing to win on both sides of the ball.
are you watching?
i’m stuck w/gamecast

No
I’m following along on Gamecast. My wife is watching Next Iron Chef, and I’d rather hang out with her than watch Dolphins vs. Saints.
You sound like a happy man

What's not to be happy about?
She’s a Pats fan.
I wasn't being sarcastic -- that was sincere.

yep, I don't get it either.

The thing that got me
was their next possession, leading by 10, was three straight passes. Hadn’t they been running?
Key play: NO misses the PAT that would have put them up by 4.

Geez, they just did it again, didn't they?
Man — it’s like watching the Pats try to close out a close one.

I have NO and the Fins
Heck of a back and forth, eh?

I like Brees' two rushing TDs
If he would just add a third now, I’m pretty sure my fantasy team will win this week. :)
Yeah, but Miami will probably throw, so they're fine
Now, if they got smart and tried to run the ball….
3 minutes i would try some runs rather relying on the arm of a young QB
Caronlina beat tampa on a drive where they threw the ball just once
Good thing they aren't relying on Ted Hands of Stone Ginn

But they gave us a blueprint to beating the Saints
All the Pats have to do is execute better and for the whole game.
secrets to beating the saints
- Run the ball
- Stop drew brees
- don’t implode
Oh yeah we actually have a QB who can make those harder passes and REcievers who can catch
Close
1) Run the ball.
2) Pressure Drew Brees. The Dolphins did a pretty good job of that.
3) Don’t make stupid mistakes.
The Phins abandoned #1 and blew it on #3.
Hmmm...
Are the Patriots capable of these things?
1) Run the Ball…not from what I’ve seen? Only good rushing game was against the Titans- haven’t been able to start it against a good team.
2) Pressure Brees. Haven’t seen consistent QB pressure.
3) Don’t implode. Seems like we’ve faltered in the 4th Quarter against good teams thus far. Hopefully that’s behind us.
NO has a pretty good secondary, so hopefully our Offense clicks and clicks early.

Sources: Washington breaks fibula

Washington
Washington
New York Jets running back Leon Washington is out for the rest of the season after fracturing his fibula in Sunday’s game against the Oakland Raiders, a team source told ESPN’s Adam Schefter.
Washington went down on his first carry when a defender rolled up on his right leg. He was helped off the field by two trainers and then taken away on a cart.
Washington had rushed for 325 yards on 71 carries this season before this game. The Jets shut out the Raiders 38-0.
Information from ESPN’s NFL Insider Adam Schefter and the Associated Press was used in this report.
Wow
Well, Thomas Jones is still a damn good back, but he’s going to have to carry the ball 25 times a game now.
Miami is for real.
We’re going to be pressed whether they run or throw…

Fins D looked gassed
Time of possession was only 6 mins or so in NO’s favor, but they just looked like it was a tough day. Thoughts on Crowder? It appeared he was taking a beating by the Saints’ backs.
Blogger at SBNation's Patriots blog, Pats Pulpit
yeah, the D looked like they were on fire during the first half and then when the second half came around they were gone
It was a good game though, I’ll give our team that but the loss still hurts. I’ll be looking forward to next week when we get another shot at the Jets, I’m sure you guys can’t wait to get back at them.

Brandon Jacobs is a beast.
And will be walking with a cane at the age of 45.
