Aw, It's OK...

From Rex Ryan's press conference last night:



"Greatest D in NFL history" takes it on the chin and the best offensive plays were fake punts and questionable penalty calls.

Nice...

How's 3rd place treating the fish?

I look forward to the rematch in 2 weeks once you guys are out of the comfort zone of home field. Something tells me the wildcat won't work so well and henne won't have all day to make passes.

Knock, knock.
Who's there?
Wildcat.
Wildcat who?
Oops, the Fins just put up another TD on Rex's Super-D.

Snap!

3rd place is still 3rd place...

For now--it's only week 5.

Kinda like how you guys started out last year with Fav-ruh...

Wow. Just got around to checking out the board today.

Was planning on posting about the Fins had a great game plan and executed well, but in honor of the tone set up here, I'll take a different tack:

Congrats, Fins. You managed to play your "A" game, not make a single mistake, and only managed to beat the Jets-in your own building-by barely beating the clock on the last play of the game.

See you in New Jersey! Should be fun.

Well, hopefully we get the same treatment as visitors that the Jets got.

One PI call on an uncatchable ball (led directly to a TD), one unnecessary roughness call on a play where both guys were jumping for a ball that the receiver touched (led to a FG), and a phantom PI call in the 4th that also directly led to a TD.

The calls were completely 1-sided so let's see what happens when those fortunes are reversed.

And I love how Pace and Ryan are trashing Henne for being a 2nd year nobody, but they treat their ROOKIE like he's the 2nd coming of Broadway Joe...punk asses.

Fredo said...

Well, I'll give you the unnecessary roughness call. Total bunk.

The PI against Braylon in the 4th is called all the time, b/c the DB pushed the WR and wasn't going for the ball. It was light contact though and didn't affect Brayon's path, so it could've gone either way.

The first half PI was a definite penalty. The ball was uncatchable b/c the receiver couldn't extend and go for it. He probably had a shot if not interfered with.

So the Jets got one gift and one that could've went either way. Sounds like a typical NFL game.

You have a link on the Pace/Ryan stuff? I haven't seen it yet, and it sounds fun.

Heard the clips on the FAN so I'm not sure where they would be in print.

Fredo said...

By the way,
you heard from CE, DC?
