Patriots @ Jets Game Thread: a divisional shootout

New England Patriots at New York Jets, Sep 20, 2009 1:00 PM EDT


Imgdyn_cfm_medium

ON TV: WBZ / CBS  |  ON RADIO: 98.5 The Sports Hub (View Affiliates)

It's the outspoken Ryan against the calculating Belichick.  It's the 3 ring veteran QB against the upstart rookie.  Two huge inactives, one on each side of the ball: Wes Welker and Jerod MayoJoey Galloway will likely see more tosses come his way while Gary Guyton steps in for his buddy.  Protect Tom Brady.  Rattle Mark Sanchez.  Lookout for Leon Washington.  Is it 1:00 PM yet?

Welker Out..

Thats going to hurt.. But Edleman in hopefully will fill the void.. But now Baker, Watson, Aiken, and Galloway will have to step up and make the difference up.. Also our new TE Matt Light.. LOL Will have to help too..

Exactly

Galloway is the likely target with Welker out

Nice little side-step, then — no kidding — Joey Galloway.

Honestly, I feel a little sick. Like it might be the Super Bowl or something.

Not too bad.

Though based on last week, that should have been a 15-yard roughing the passer.

Definitely running into the kicker

And that previous play? The announcers aren’t sure there was contact beyond five yards? On third-and-five when the receiver is past the first down marker and the corner is grabbing his jersey?

At this point, I’m just surprised that Wright wasn’t ejected for sacking the QB cleanly.

They can never see the ball when his knee is down.

They need it to be conclusive, but from the angles we’ve seen it’s impossible to tell when the ball comes out.

Brady was under steep pressure on 3rd and about 17

Made a sweet duck/side-step (I think he thought he was going to get hit), popped out the left side, and JUST overthrew Galloway on a crossing route.

Worked it out to midfield.

I think he’s starting to see things better. And (knocks wood) it looks like the o-line is settling in to the pattern a little bit. We’ve had a couple of runs where the only thing that’s saved the Jets has been the backside closing of the safety — and there’s not much you can do about that other than try to open the hole faster.

That last drive, though, was just sloppiness all around. We’re getting closer.

I like the look of Brady on that last drive.

I like the defense aside FROM that last drive (and even then, they had a dominant ending to it).

I don’t like the parts of the special teams not named “Gostkowski”

Still, I think we’ve got a good shot at this one.

Gross

Two terrible throws. I can’t believe Brady hung Edelman out to dry like that. You could see the guy had him 1-1 all over the field. Brady to Moss should be there — Moss can out-jump that guy Revis. But the throws are just off the mark. It looks grim.

It's amazing how much better kicking is in the NFL from, say, 20 years ago.

Used to be a 40-yarder was a 50-50 proposition. Now, if your guy can’t be counted on from 40, he’s done.
