Exactly, they should have learned from the Arizona game. It seems that this team changes their gameplan when they have a lead. Aaron Rodgers and the Packers last night played the whole game the same way - with the pedal to the metal - until the game was won. They didnt change at all when they...

I am not downplaying the severity of a high ankle sprain, my point was that a tendon injury is worse than a break and would probably mean the end of the season. And no, I am not a doc.

I didnt listen to Gil but I did have a sneaky suspicion watching the game that they could be shooting themselves in the foot by settling for a FG in that situation. They had ample opportunity to gain more yard and they had Arizona's D on their heels but after Welker's catch, they did nothing to...

It's too early to speculate on the extent of this injury. The fact that nothing is broken but that something is obviously serious wrong could in fact be worse news than a break. If after an MRI they determine it is a tendon (i.e. posterior tibial tendon) it would be the end of the season for...

You're absolutely right about both Montero's catching abilities and both their potentials. Where I disagree is in the likelihood of them reaching their potentials and, regardless, about it being a "steal". I think there's a much higher chance that Montero becomes a 300 / 30 / 100 guy for the...

I think the outcome of the game will have more to do with which team plans and executes a better game plan. Certainly, Myra Kraft and Tom Martinez can and will give players inspiration to play well and hard. But I am sure the Giants players have deceased and ill people they are playing for. I...

I never said Kuroda was brilliant and I wouldnt want him pitching for us either. I was trying to make a point and say that we shouldnt panic and sign a pitcher who wont be a very good fit here. I think Oswalt would get lit up in the AL East, especially here in Fenway. Just going on last years...

Sorry I wasnt aware that was what football players were supposed to do. I wasn't talking about hitting guys hard that was classless and wrong, I was referring to targetting a players head who has a history of concussions. Here is what Giants linebacker Michael Boley had to say: "In our...

I read the information somewhere on ESPN but I cant seem to find the article now. Supposedly it was from a report from New York Magazine on Monday, but it is looking like it is just rumor and speculation. Thanks for your post - it was a good one.

Scutaro wasnt the long-term solution here at SS. He was an average player who could be replaced fairly easily. I don't think they should have signed him for this year anyways so losing him now is not a big loss. I do not hope this leads to signing Roy Oswald. An aging, injury prone NL...

Re: Vince Wilfork I think it was awesome that Jim Nance singled out Vince in his post game interview with Bill. A great game from Vince from beginning to end, a culmination of his hard work and passion for the game. I think it's obvious that his work ethic and leadership on the DLine makes...

Two Giants were quoted as saying they had targeted Kyle Williams since he had a history of concussions. They said they wanted to put a big hit on him to knock him out of the game. Talk about classless and just plain wrong. Football is a tough and physical game but there is no place for that ...

Agree completely that our D is the key. We all know what the Offense is capable of doing. It's the D that is really the unknown at this point. If the D comes up big, we win this game. We don't have to shut them down, but I would say limit the long, sustained drives that keep the ball away...

No matter who will play in the Superbowl, it will be a tough challenge. It's more about how the Pats come out to play than about the opponent they are playing. The only team that would have scared me if we make it that far was New Orleans. They are absolutely dominant inside a dome and would...

Good point but it doenst really matter how they finished the regular season. The playoffs are a completely new season and right now they are playing at a high level. Were it not for their mistakes, they would be beating Baltimore on the road, where it is very difficult to win. Besides, the...

Good post. I completely agree about the importance of character on a team in terms of building team unity and producing leaders who lead by example. This is especially true in professional football and hockey, where players have to trust in their teammates for saftey, well-being, and...

Jesus doesn't lose. Get your facts straight. Regarding the Pats next opponent, both Batlimore and the Texans are pretty evenly matched. As of right now, the Texans D seems more pumped up and energetic. Also, their offense is much more powerful than the Ravens. Remember, Baltimore doesnt...

I agree completely with stcjones. A solid defense is just as dependent on consistency/reliabilty/communication than it is with talent. I also think that the idea of BB trying to be both head coach and D coordinator has to be looked at. I think BB is trying to to do much and needs to learn to...

Gronk seemed to be sure he was in the endzone and seemed to want BB to challenge. Someone on the coaching staff upstairs should have communicated to BB to challenge once they saw the replay on TV. There was more than enough time to get a challenge in. It was a bad coaching decision, as was...

The only problem with our offense is it clearly lacks a deep threat. Ochocinco was brought in to be this person but he cannot do it. We need someone who stretches the field. This is a glaring weakness that the Steelers exposed. Next year we should address this problem in the draft. Can...
