NFL

Tannehill is a decent QB but was being hampered by the offensive gameplan - whenever Miami goes to the read-option like they did in the pre-season, they move the ball a lot better and he has more time in the pocket.

What did me was, that he seemed to want an eternity when in the pocket and the
J E T S jets jets jets. ( they only have one song). Never game him time. They struggled to find any kind of hurry up offence ala Patriots.

thought the wide receiver for the jets ( ex Chicago player ) was quality.

Read option doesn't work in the pros. Preseason isn't a fair reflection, as the standard is so much worse. Starting DEs don't bit and contain much better.

Jets have the best CB in the game and a bloody good D line. That why there's no one open. Not being able to develop a run game doesn't help either

On the basis of who they have played so far, it's hard to say whether they have or have not got a good defence. Two of the teams they beat are at the bottom of there respective leagues and struggling to score against anyone. The other team they beat are 2-2 and have conceded more than they have scored so again are struggling. Yet the team that beat the Jets are again bottom of there league, so the three of the teams that they have played are bottom of there leagues.

having said all that they would take 3-1 after four weeks. Think the real test for them is there game after next v the pats which should be a good indication of where both teams stand.
Cannot deny that the jets defence put in a good performance against a poor fins offence. But a poor offence that had 14 points scored against it and was very nearly 21.

looking forward to Jets v pats.
 
Go Pats. Good end to a game. Did say a couple of weeks ago the Jets test will come against the Pats. In all honesty they gave it a good go.

Where did the Dolphins get that performance from.

missis T has just asked me. What would be the best way to buy a ticket to see the Pats play in the Gillette stadium ?

You wouldn't get a ticket if you sold your ass at South Station Boston, Tickets are like teddy bear brains. We looked at going whilst we were in Boston a few weeks ago and was told something similar

The situation has changed over the last couple of years then. We were in Boston and the Pats were not at home whilst we were there ( got beat away by Ravens). Anyway we were talking to a couple from Sheffield who managed to get tickets whilst out there.

oh well.

Stub Hub. You can definitely get tickets, despite being a sell out every game they are still available. No different to going to Lambeau.

You will pay higher than asking price though, especially given that they are unbeaten.

Felt a little guilty yesterday as I was enjoying the NFL game on 2 over the rugby on 3 with them being on simultaneously. Great game, lots of TD's, interceptions, fumbles, hits etc etc.

Question - who has the best outfit in the NFL? - for me its the Bengals with that cool helmet design.

That could well be one of Missis T's bucket list wishes ticked off then. When she finishes her nursing career.

Aii stubhub is great, I was looking at Bronco's and seahawks tickets when i was in Denver and Seattle last year, on game day both had availability to collect at the stadium and thats when the seahawks were good!
 
I paid full wack for tickets at the Metrolife stadium in advance, when i went and saw the pack play the giants. However, Giants were 0-6 at the time, and Aaron Rodgers was injured.

I could have got the same tickets for about $10 outside. Giants fans are a fickle bunch!

Chance you take i suppose.
 
Here we go then, starting to hit the pointy end of the season!

What an escape from the Hawks last night, I went from complete depression to ecstacy with one botched kick! i though Kam had found a way to make us forget his brilliant rip of AP.

One stat I found amazing was the sheer number of fumbles by AP, was bound to happen at least once yesterday, especially in the cold!

Watched the packers after that, Rodgers looking happy to play football again, not a good sign!!

On an AFC side, Chiefs for the bowl? On a crazy run, but Pats look like getting a few weapons back, and Manning back for Denver has to he a massive help for them!

i think theres a genuine chance the 5&6 seeds play the championship game in both conferences.

So fed up with the luck that the Hawks get, its stupid. However, I think you win next week, and if A-Rod can sneak past Arizona, i'll happily bring you back to Lambeau.

Go Chiefs!
Just hope the offence can step up a little bit more because even the mighty Chiefs defence won't be able to keep Brady quiet all game.

Have a good feeling we can go the distance....
