Brady cementing his position as GOAT (IMO). And Belichick is already there.
and yet, if NYG does a better job managing the clock at 1st and goal, or if Landon Collins doesn't drop an INT in his hands...

The INT was definitely a lucky break. Every NE vs NYG game seems to have one make or break play. Glad the Pats are on the winning side of that play this time.

They put Driphus back in because USM failed to show the unspoken rules of coach etiquette for how you handle a blowout victory late in a game. It was a pretty terse end of game handshake.
If you don't want someone to run up the score, don't let them. Simple. This isn't little league. Although maybe Bailiff hasn't understood that yet, which would explain a lot.
Hard to fault the backup QB for using the opportunity given to practice and show his stuff.
Thanks for agreeing with me (Post #35).
Looks like Cam Newton agrees too. Quote is in relation to his TD Dance.
On a side note, I will admit I was very wrong about Newton. I did not think he had what it took to be a long term QB (based on his limited playbook in college and stuff). He and the Panthers defense are playing incredible football.

If by stuff you mean stealing from his teammates or fellow Florida students, yes, I too thought that was a poor leading indicator for being an NFL QB.

Rice, meanwhile, is doing what it needs to do to drop to DIII.
That's probably the only way Rice sneaks into the AAC.
Thanks Leebron!
Leebron is a big reason why we have any chance of moving up. Ask the people in the department, he's been the most supportive president for athletics since maybe Lovett or possibly Houston.
Quite possibly true.

Inevitably every Kubiak coached QB seems to regress tremendously. Player development is sorely lacking.
Meanwhile the Panthers continue to look impressive and are 9-0.
How much influence does Kubiak truly have on Manning at this point in his career? Given Manning's tenure in the NFL, I would think he doesn't need a tremendous amount of coaching. Although I do agree that he has to work with the coaches.

Yes that.
Edelman is out with a broken food. Bah.
Dallas is in total freefall, losing to Tampa Bay to drop to 2-7. Will be interesting to see what happens next year and with their staff.
Also Washington crushes New Orleans. Wow. Will be interesting to see what happens, could be the end of Payton or Brees or both as Saints.

Boise State almost had their own miracle finish. Several laterals, with a receiver running almost 55 yards only to get tackled by the last guy at the 5 yard line.
