I can't say anything on a broad scale, but in something I read earlier today it mentioned that during one play, Brady clearly signaled Taylor as a blitz to be picked up and nobody took him. I wonder how much stuff like that happened today.

Did anybody get an idea as to who Brady was yelling at on the sidelines? I know NEM thinks it was McDaniels, but we all know the prejudice there. Was it actually the line?

Jesus Jacky is there anyone on this team you like i have to wonder why you are even here. I agree with Bruinz you could put the top LT in the league hell all-time in their prime aganst Jason Taylor adn they would have a hard time. and I have an amazing stat for you just about every player on offence has had a False start penalty called on them. I Played O-line in high school and it's a lot harder then people think to stay perfectly still for 5-10 seconds when you are thinking about what you have to do. And I never had a QB telling me which guy is blitzing. I would love to see some of the people on this board try to stay perfetly still with a 250-300lbs guy twitching in front of you while trying to get ready to block him and/or others

Jacky is partially correct in that Light had a very rough game. Yes, Taylor was there, but Matt's head was not in the game. However, to congratulate the Jets on the division and say this year is over is pure idiocy. Could someone please get this idiot troll Jacky off this board. He has nothing constructive to contribute. All he does is give pure crap statements that have nothing to do with reality. It is time for him to go.

Matt Light is avg at best, but he is better than say Max Lane or Todd Rucci, Bledsoe's buddies..

With all due respect, high school football is a little different than pro football. QB calls out protection and specifically signal who to block.

Yes, false start happens, but this season I just see it more from Light. Much of our problems have come from penalties and he's become infamous for drive-killing.

Yeah, OK...he can call out protections, but if they can't protect, what the hell good is it?

This game was NOT on Brady...anyone who knows anything about football would know that. It was protection and having chump WR's that can't get open / seperation. Brady was a lame duck in this game and we are fortunate that he did not go off the field on a stretcher!

I believe it was the entire offense include McDaniels. I saw at one point McDaniels walk up to him and Brady turned his back and walked away. Don't want to read too much into that, but it appeared McDaniels was barking at him when he turned from him. Even so, Brady turning his back like that was not cool in my book. Bottom line, that manchild is still a coach and you need to respect your coaches.

Maybe we should stop drafting lineman with the initials ML (...Max Lane!)

Light looked overmatched all day but did anyone see the scramble on the Brady strip/fumble?? - He just stood there and never made an attempt to pounce on the ball.
