Media so enthralled w/Jets misses the real story! - New England Patriots Forums

Matt Cassel was awesome! Do you think if a team beat the Colts without Manning, Sanders, Addai, Rhodes, Bracket etc. they would be fawning over the other team or talking about how the backup QB played his ass off!

The real story is Brett Favre and the Jets winning this game.

Had we won then the real story would be Matt Cassel.

I disagree. Favre & the Jets had to scrape and claw to eke out a win in overtime against a sorely depleted Patriots team. They know that, and that will bother them for quite awhile, especially when the NY media starts to harp about it.

They will have their doubts now, about what it's going to take to win against a fully-stocked team. And they will question who they are.

Right, I guess Im upset too because they were sooo over the top hoping the Jets would kill us! I liked when they showed Moss blocking Law on a running play and tried to pass it off as Law jamming him! And they used that clip a few times! Moss can't buy a break if he didn't block they would have showed that.!

Even if that's the case, they deserve the media coverage and praise this week. They won the game.
