The Jets just destroyed the Colts. Now I definitely think this is a loss.

It's not whether you get knocked down, it's whether you get back up again. |

Nerd's keys to the game:
1: Arodge needs to make plays. If a guy comes open hit him. Shorter passes are higher percentage, less likely to be dropped.
2: Get Cobb involved more. Dude is explosive and dynamic. No one can stop him in the open field.
3: Help Green get going with some misdirection, screens draws and general "Sproles" type plays. Plays that work to his and this offense's strength.
4: Defense needs to hang onto the INTs. If you have a shot at one, get it. Start making those plays.
5: Oline needs to get it done. I'm talking mainly about Saturday and Bulaga. Newhouse is what he is, which is passable, the guards are ok, Saturday gets blown up at times and Bulaga is struggling too. Tendinitis in the knee.
6: Special Teams might come up big.
7: Pay attention to Time of Possession. Don't keep hanging the defense out to dry, year after year. Get with some WCO fundamentals. Wear THEIR defense down instead. |
It's not whether you get knocked down, it's whether you get back up again. |

Giants up 23-3 over 49ers. Sometimes one team matches up to another team's strengths better.
I'm not writing this game off yet. Last week against the Jets the Houston secondary looked a little vulnerable.
MM needs to come out mixing up the offense (slants/short passes, running plays, play action passes, screens), O needs to execute/quit dropping the damn ball, D needs to stop the running game & put them into passing situations where we can get after Schaub.
This is winnable, we just have to bring our A game, not our flunk out of pre-school game. |

(I can't say the true reason I picked the Browns because I don't want to give VR any hints on why he keeps losing bets to me). I know. But the way they were losing games close you would think it became a theme.

On Channel 4 in the UK they're talking to Tania Ganguli from the Houston Chronicle about the Texans.
Thinks she's been on the Gin.
