Mid week report

Did ya enjoy the game Monday night? I enjoyed watching the offensive line dominate a pretty good defensive line and I don't remember if I heard All-World Jared Allen's name mentioned at all between 920pm and 1230 Tuesday morning. And where are all the Brett Farve shills now? He's such a 'me' guy that he actually celebrated throwing his 500th TD pass, as they were losing the game. And I couldn't be happier for the Vikings coaching staff. They are 1-3, have Randy Moss and a season that looks like it's ready to spontaneously combust. Moss will be a real joy to be around week 12, when they are 4-8. I actually don't blame the loss on Farve, but it did put a ribbon on it with the pick 6 he threw in the waning minutes of the game.
But two things really stuck out in that game as WTF moments. First was the Vikings wasting a time out to discuss if they were going for a two point conversion when they were behind by two points and the Jets overt mismangement of the clock with 2:47 remianing. Even, Charlie Winner and the Mangenius would not have thrown a pass in that series. As Herm Edwards would have said, Run The Clock To WIN THE GAME!

Random Flak...
  • Who's decision was it to let Revis play? He clearly isn't healthy...
  • Buckle up your chinstraps... when the timing is there, Holmes is gonna break some really big plays.
  • Who would have thought that both Cromartie and Edwards would be playing this well...
  • LT continues to amaze. I hope his impact will still be there in December...
  • Sanchez had trouble with a wet ball...
  • (related item) Tim Hassellbeck, husband of The View's Elizabeth H-back, says NFL QB's are having issues with the pink ribbon balls. Not because of the decal, but the balls are brand new and slick. Didn't we all throw a brand new football on Christmas morning? Where's Lester Hayes when you need him?
  • Have the Jets let the fans back into the stadium yet... we're expecting more rain tonight
  • The Jets secondary better be well rested. This Denver team has a limited running game. Our front seven need to play three yards behind the line of scrimmage on Sunday...

Jets now believe and go 5-1, and ready for a well deserved bye.
