The official 2009 NFL season thread

Well, the Dolphins held the ball for 45 minutes.
Ran the ball 48 times for 235 yards.
Completed 15 of 21 third downs.
The O-line dominated, the wildcat was very successful, Pennington was efficient and accurate.

However, maybe the Phins don't know how to go fast. That 2 minute drive was painful.....
Maybe it isn't as easy as Eli makes it look after all.
Still impressive. I have never seen such a one sided game, the phins just lack some explosion and need to work on a 2 minute drill.


As for the Saints, their offense has been beyond words but their defense has been awful. SHOULD be better. Which is scary....if they ever get a good defense going they would be unstoppable. Brees will probably break the yards record this season.

Can't believe Miami lost that game.  15 mintues TOP for the colts, didn't see the game, Miami defense that bad?

The game yesterday, i saw Miami offense very good and equilibrate.

^ well athletes aren't exactly rocket scientists you know...   did you read about the NBA player (no clue who) that was arrested here in the DC area for carrying two handguns and a shotgun in a guitar case strapped across his back  as he was caught speeding on his crotch rocket hahahhahha. 

speaking of guns and athletes...   oh to be Tom Brady..

NEW YORK -- News agency Agence France Presse and two photographers sued New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady and his wife Gisele Bundchen over an incident in which they allege the couple's bodyguards fired on the photographers.

The plaintiffs seek at least $1 million in damages from Brady and Bundchen after bodyguards shot at the photographers at the couple's after-wedding party at Bundchen's holiday home in Costa Rica.

The suit, filed in U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York on Tuesday, blamed Bundchen and Brady for negligence and carelessness.

After taking photographs of the event, the photographers were approached by bodyguards who demanded their cameras and memory cards, the suit said. When the photographers refused, the incident escalated, and one of the bodyguards opened fire with a pistol at the photographers' vehicle, the suit said.

One of the shots struck and shattered the rear window of the photographers' vehicle, hit the front windshield and ricocheted off it into the driver's seat, the suit said. It narrowly missed the heads of photographers Yuri Cortez and Rolando Aviles, who are both citizens of Costa Rica.

Cortez and Aviles have incurred expenses for medical care and treatment, medicines, nursing services, physical therapy and other treatment, the suit said.

Representatives for Bundchen and Brady were not immediately available to comment.

Hmm that photographer wouldn't have been ESPN's Suzy Colbert would it?   I thought Brady was going to knock her over after the game with the Bills. Brady is an ass. Takes after his coach.

Looks like the Giants are playing like themselves again!
Beat Tampa 24 - 0

Eli was not spectacular but efficient, and they ran the ball wall.
THAT is how the Giants should play.

Eagles destroyed the Chiefs and Vick went an amazing 0 for 2 and ran the ball once.

And the Lions finally get a win. Jeez...

Well no one denied his skill, for 12 games.
Most agreed that he couldnt make it through 16 though

One thing that was hilarious.....he threw this one pass, and after the catch, the dude starts running up the middle dragging guys, bouncing off guys, but staying on his feet.....Brett actually runs forward into the melee and throws a block at this big dude. 

I was thinking....what the hell is he doing?   He's gonna get snapped like a pretzel....but he seems to really be having fun.

Y'all might enjoy this tasty strike.....4th down.....2 seconds left in the game.

Congrats Scott!
