NFL 12 week 11 synopsis

I have to ask, what is the point of paying DirecTV for NFL Sunday Ticket if they pre-empt the first quarter of the game you want to watch? Grrrr.


When the game started here, the Colts led 14-7 (oh sure, they cover when the Pats do well, but not us).

But let’s face it… Colts don’t win in Foxborough. Being up by a TD and them missing a Field Goal, that’s a good way to start. Then the Colts got a three and out, which the Pats ran back for a TD. Then Luck threw a Pick-6. And that was the game.

As far as the fumble just after the two minute warning, Chump fans can boo, but you don’t get to rip the ball out after the signal is made and then say you win.

I must also say, for 58 yarder, Vinetari was darn close trying to move it closer in the first half (not that it mattered in the second half).

We’ve got to fix whatever is wrong with our O-Line and we HAVE to get Reggie Wayne some consistent help out there. The Pats were in the backfield all day. It wasn’t the Chump that won this game. It was the overwhelming Pats defense.

One last point, up by almost 30 points with a few minutes left on the clock, why don’t the Pats pull there starters? Because they are the most unsportsman-like team in the NFL.

Rest of the League:
This was a crazy week. Lots of OT and other shenanigans.

Cowboys-Browns. Ok, this is the one normal thing the happened. The Browns lose a crushingly close one. They had this one won, until the fourth quarter, when they found a way to lose.

Texans-Jags. You can tell the Jags were on the road, because they actually played well. They too had a double-digit lead, but then the Texans got hungry. And when they hungry, they win.

Buccs-Panthers. Panthers also had a double digit lead, and also lost in OT. Crazy right? Oh, and Dallas Clark is still the man. Colts should have kept him to get Reggie Wayne some help out there.

Redskins-Eagles. This was the Redskins people have been waiting on all season. At least they trounced the Eagles, right?

Bengals-Chiefs. Ok, two normal ones.

Falcons-Cards. Arizona also got to an early lead and held it, but like the Texans, good teams find ways to win (even with 6 turnovers).

Packers-Lions. Detroit also almost took it to the Packers. They were neck and neck, but GB pulled it out.

Saints-Raider. Have the Saints finally found their identity? This is how you start a run for the playoffs…

Broncos-Chargers. Yeah. In case you were wondering, he’s still Peyton Manning.
