Default Is this the week where we see the Kryptonite?

I'm talking about Shawn Springs. Some speculated TO was the reason we brought Springs in.

He was back in the line-up last week and held up OK.

This week we have TO and Lee Evans against Bodden and Springs.

I know it's "only" Ryan Fitzpatrick, but without Big Vince, we are relying on outside pressure to him. Which we know hasn't happened a lot this year.

So, we need the kryptonite to cut out TO this week.

Go Pats.

Vince is not as pass rusher up the middle guy anyway. Not sure what is different here- execept when the Bills run. That is the fear here.

Ryan Fitzpatrick isn't great, but he's much better than the last two losers they had there. I can't even remember number 7's name--oh yeah Losman.

I can see BB locking a man on TO.

The one touchdown scored by Carolina was by the guy Springs was supposedly covering. He was simply beat speedwise. Hopefully he'll do well this week.

Frankly I don't like him. He comes off as an arrogant jerk, and I work with someone that was on a HS team with him that confirms yep, he was a total arrogant jerk (though note there might be a hint of jealousy in his evaluation ).

The difference is that Brady calmly calls audibles while Manning flaps like a chicken, barks 11 code words, and makes sure every camera in the stadium has documented his once-in-a-generation (and patented, I believe) ability to see a defensive formation and change the play. Both have the same effect, but Manning transcends measurable human intellect while Brady merely chooses a different play.

That was Meriweather's fault, he bit again like on the TD in New Orleans. Not that I want Springs covering Owens one on one much but he expected help on that play.

If we lose, it will not be because of the play of TO.
