ORIGINAL: cloudboy Its a testament to Belicheck that he knew a WR on his team could kick a PAT. BAL now plays on a short week at ATL on THU. Ray Lewis and Anquan Boldin are each against THU night games and going to an 18 game schedule. The 18 game schedule will just reduce the career life of good players while giving the 2-4 year NFL players more coin. It will also dilute the attention span of the fans and make the NFL a bit more synonymous with the NHL, NBA, and MLB who arguably have worthless regular seasons. I hope this measure is defeated. I favor ATL over BAL: short week, playing at home in a dome favors the Falcons. BAL will need a pick six from Ed Reed to turn the tables. Flacco plays pretty well on the road. We are witnesses to a rise of NFC teams: ATL, NYG, and PHI as contenders for the SB. TO caught his 1500th pass last night. Troy Polamalu and James Harrison delivered some tough clean hits on CIN's last drive. The Harrison hit won PITT the game. (The key for defensive players is delivering a body blow instead of a head shoot, and leading with the shoulder instead of the helmet.) WR's and TEs are definitely the most exposed players to injury. If we track LaM off field routines, we can see how they have bearing on the JETS; flying seems to correlate into a comeback win this week. Gotta root for Peyton Hillis. Curious if Ed Reed can lead the league in INTs despite missing the first six (6) weeks of the season. Are you suggesting that Welker is incapable of speech or communication of any kind ? Having a player volunteer the information that he kicked in high school/college....or better still having seen one of your position players goofing off and kicking field goals during practice.....is not all that remarkable. Bellicheck as a coach is rightfully lauded for his defensive acumen...for his rings and such...but for having Welker kick a field goal.....nah,I'm not getting excited about that.
