It happened so fast, I couldn't believe my eyes. Once my brain conceived what my eyes were telling me, I laughed hysterically and couldn't stop for quite a while. Then, as I began to recover, Edelman plucked the fumbled ball out of the air on the ensuing kickoff and it was wild hilarity all over again.

It was just like a good live comedy show, where the comedian gets you roaring and then delivers another zinger before you can catch your breath.

That game should be immortalized on DVD.

I think it was Mayock that compared it to the Keystone Cops.

Another apt comparison:

This poster is a very solid one on TGG, and has a unique take on Brady:

This line alone is completely out of left field:

I'm looking at the last few years and I think Bill Belichik is going to have a shocker in the works for us. Not this year, but in 2014 when Brady is easily cuttable in the last year of his contract.

I think Brady's playing for his job in the playoffs this year and if he plays the way he's been playing since the injury Belichik is going to let him go, just like he has with every other star who suddenly looked mortal and had a real price tag attached.

The OP projects his own hopes and fantasies onto the Pats and Brady. But, the rest of his post, however, is a pretty good run-down of Brady's most recent playoff history.

100 worst athletes in sports, of all time, and the Jets manage to get three of them. That's an amazing track record.

Is that right? Are they still over? All I keep seeing is they "freed up $30M in cap space." Seems to me that if you're still over, you haven't "freed up" anything.

They're about $7 million under now from what I've seen, but they've got a lot of signings to make.

And they've still got Captain Buttfumble running the ship...
