Jets - Patriots...NFL Network *Merge*

[BHendri5]

Question for all who have the nfl network, do they constantly leave the game to go to the 3 guys in the studio to talk about the game and other football related things?

If so, I hate that and that takes some desire from me wanting the nfl network.
I am watching the game on my computer and I was just wondering if it is only done on the computer, or is it also done to the television watchers as well.

[miamicowboy21]

We aren't the only team with special teams woes. The pats haven't been good all season, the dolphins special teams coach has been cacthing a lot of heat this week and seattle had their problems as well. Not trying to excuse bruce read, but poor special teams seem to be more prevelant around the league, not just us.

[djtavo]

Im falling asleep with the commentators doing the Jets/Patriots game....

Anybody fells the same way ?

:banghead::banghead::banghead:

[WoodysGirl]

The NFL network broadcast is very meat and potatoes football. I don't recall sideline reporters and the discussion is pretty much all football.

[cowboyjoe]

no, now the announcers do talk, during breaks, and before the play starts, etc

like woodys girl says very meaty summarization of the game

now at same time, if you dont like chris collingsworth, the ex wr from bengals, then you had better forget it then because chris does most of the talking

at least thats what im hearing

[Chocolate Lab]

Yeah, I agree... Of course anyone would be a huge improvement over Gumbel, but Papa is so low-key, he almost sounds bored.

True. I like it better than the goofs on MNF. That Tony (what ever his last name is) is a complete maroon.

[Nors]

Jets taking it to the Pats! Balls by Manginirat to start Law opposite Revis. Favre nice game so far

JETS JETS JETS

[DaBoys4Life]

24-6 Jets....

[panchucko]

Brett Favre is a god, man can we hear i enough? These announcers are just drooling some Brett.

[windward]

Jets looking pretty good here.

[WoodysGirl]

Brett Favre is a god, man can we hear i enough? These announcers are just drooling some Brett.
I don't mind the Favre drool when he's playing. It's when announcers drool over him and it's during a totally different game that it gets annoying.

[lane]

Jets looking pretty good here.

yes they do windward..


how you doing tonight my friend?

[Kilyin]

shoulda taken the field goal, what a stupid call.

[thewireman]

If that was the Cowboys on defense, the Patriots would have converted the 4 & 3rd and then all the defensive back field would have been pointing fingers while looking clueless on what just happened

[windward]

yes they do windward..

On edge.


it's been too long since I've seen a Cowboys game started by Tony Romo.

Sunday night can't come soon enough.

[windward]

Cause we never ever stop teams on fourth down conversions.

Never mind teams have missed fourth down conversions in the Philadelphia Green Bay, Cincinnati and Tampa Bay games.

Forget all that. What you said is more accurate.

[TheSport78]

we shoulda signed Ty Law! He's handling Moss with help from a safety up top. I'de take Law over Henry any day..

[Dave_in-NC]

When did we trade Gurode to NE? Nice snap.:lmao:

[Nors]

Law is jamming Moss effectively all gamelong

[windward]

Chris Baker just did a TO impersonation

[Nors]

Favre needs to win this game here - can't lets Pats hang around

Nice stop Jets D

[Kilyin]

we shoulda signed Ty Law! He's handling Moss with help from a safety up top. I'de take Law over Henry any day..

he's covered Gaffney on 90% of his snaps.

He was matched on Moss for one or two plays where they flipped the coverage, the announcers mentioned it, and now everyone is like HOLY CRAP HEZ SHUTTING DOWN MOSS ALL GAME LOPNG WE SHOULDA SIGNED HIM!@@#$#

He was on Moss most all of first half. Gaffney was killing Jets and they moved Law on Gaffney half time adjustment.

[Rampage]

Jets are blowing it.

[windward]

Jets are blowing it.
That's been their MO since 1968.

[bbgun]

NY has got to get their ground game going. Way too pass-happy in the 2nd half.

[windward]

Oh dear god. Cotchery.

post a picture as such (without periods) [.img]http://blah.com/pic.jpg[./img]

and if a picture shows on preview, it can be hotlinked, if not... it can't.. or you did it wrong.

[windward]

See what happens when you give Thomas Jones the ball?

[Nors]

Mayo is a BEAST

[windward]

They sure have eaten a lot of clock here.

[windward]

Uh oh looks like the New York Favres may pull this one out

[Chocolate Lab]

YYYYYYYYYES! Holding on Vrabel, even if it was bogus.

Come on Jets!

Fun game to watch on a Thursday night.

The NFL Network games have been entertaining so far this year.

New York Bretts has a better ring to it.

[Nors]

I think the NFL Someday may do more of this.

NFL on Saturday nights, Wednesday Nights, Tuesday Nights. They could schedule that around bye weeks some.
We would watch it all....

[windward]

New York Bretts has a better ring to it.
Yeah, you're right.

[Nors]

Jets punch it in!

[Nors]

Mayo concussion - last hit

book it - he's looking a mess afterwards

[Kilyin]

Yeah, you're right.

or Bretty and the Jets.

OLE BRETT. HE LOVES THE GAME. They could pay him with Wrangler jeans and Prilosec OTC and he'd still be out there winging it.

Remember, he's just having fun out there.

So bad you posted it twice. :)

[BraveHeartFan]

LOL. Some of the Brett hate I see around here is so silly. If the dude had played for Dallas I shudder to think how hard some of these people would be hanging from his jock.

sorry man...i'm drinking dos equis tonight.

[EveryoneElse]

Okay, after the Two minute warning, mangina will run Thomas Jones up mangolds backside for no gain. Pats will get the ball back and score and ultimately win this game in OT.

Mangina won't utilize his H.O.F QB, and will lose this game.

I hope I'm wrong.

[Rampage]

Mayo bustin out the hitstick tonight.

[windward]

sorry man...i'm drinking dos equis tonight.
It's all cool.

what's up my brother from another?

[BraveHeartFan]

Here's Matt's chance to pull a Brady and be a hero.

[cowboyjoe]

I Love It, Come On Jets You Can Do It, Beat The Cheating Patriots, And Coach Belicheater!

[EveryoneElse]

I hate the Pats. I knew this was going to happen. I'm wired east coast football.

[Rampage]

what's up my brother from another?
same old shhh... just waiting for Sunday night ya know?

[windward]

That reminds me, KFC for dinner.

[Chocolate Lab]

:lmao:

OMG you were right! :banghead:

[windward]

Holy crap.

Whatagame.

[EveryoneElse]

Did I call it, or did I call it? I hate the Pats. Somewhere Nors is smiling.

[EveryoneElse]

:lmao:

OMG you were right! :banghead:



What can I say? I called my local cable company and asked to be wired east coast football like Nors, lmao.

[Rack Bauer]

That's Nors' Ty Law getting owned for the game tying TD with 1 second left in regulation.


Yeah, we should have signed him. :lmao:

[Chocolate Lab]

Did I call it, or did I call it? I hate the Pats. Somewhere Nors is smiling.
Prevent defense at its worst. Sickening! :mad:

I was never a Favre fan, but I'm definitely rooting for him tonight. Come on Jets!

[EveryoneElse]

Yeah, we should have signed him. :lmao:



Heck, our guys can do that, what do we need his vet leadership for? :laugh2:

[Rampage]

Patriots got mad heart. if we were down 24-6 we would tank it. I can only wish we had as much heart as the pats.

[lane]

halftime adjustments= good coaching.

[windward]

Let's go Favre.

[windward]

halftime adjustments= good coaching.
Not if they're bad adjustments.

[windward]

Pats are fired up now.

[Chocolate Lab]

Oh hell yeah... Clutch 1st down!

[lane]

same old shhh... just waiting for Sunday night ya know?

i 'm feeling you ...

[lane]

ol brett can still play..

[EveryoneElse]

Lets see if mangina learned from his earlier mistake.

[windward]

It'd the Dustin Keller drive

[BraveHeartFan]

Perhaps someone should let the Patriots defense know that Keller does, in fact, play for the Jets.

[windward]

Looks like the Jets will at least get a FG att out of this.

[windward]

Kick the FG.

[EveryoneElse]

I hope he misses it just because he is wearing gloves like an idiot.

[Rampage]

great drive by Farve. the old man still has some left in the tank.

[windward]

Jets win!!!!!!

[Nors]

Jets win one on the road -

[DaBoys4Life]

wow looks like I missed a hell of a game...

[BraveHeartFan]

Favre and Keller were killer on that game winning drive.

Nice win for the Jets.

[lane]

wow looks like I missed a hell of a game...


you did my friend...you did.

[BraveHeartFan]

What I love about the Patriots losing is that before the game Collinsworth said something about "If the Patriots win tonight" and Deion cut him off and stated matter of factly that they would win tonight and they went out and didn't get the job done.

I don't know why but Deion is just one of those guys that I really enjoy it when he makes those types of statements and they turn out dead wrong.

[burmafrd]

Great adjustments for the Pats at halftime mostly- but they still left keller alone too much. Little Bill has not built as good a staff for his last few years as he did the first 3-4. More and more we see the kind of mistakes in coaching we did not see 3-4 years ago.

[Nors]

Keller had a great game tonight -

[InmanRoshi]

I dunno, I think any NFL coaching staff that is getting a 400 yard, 3 TD passing performance from a QB who hasn't been a starter since high school is doing a pretty good job coaching. This probably has been one of Belichick's finest coaching seasons. It's clear the talent of the 53 man roster has been depleated. The Patriots have been on top a long time. The 6 seasons in between the Superbowl win in 2001 and last year's Superbowl appearance is an enternity in today's NFL. The league is specifically structured to ensure no one stays King of the Hill for long. We're seeing it with the Colts this year too.

Good observation.

Good coaching overcomes the injury bug.

[Ren]

Good observation.

Good coaching overcomes the injury bug.

so does cheating and with the pats you can really tell which is which :laugh2:

[Givincer]

Good observation.

Good coaching overcomes the injury bug.

It can, but there are some circumstances under which no amount of coaching skill is going to make a difference.

Like, having Brad Johnson playing quarterback for your team... or something crazy like that.

[Rack Bauer]

Not if they're bad adjustments.

It's still coaching, it's just bad coaching.

[burmafrd]

I would argue that the Pats did more with less the first staff that Little Bill assembled. Since that staff left after the 2004 season, they have actually gotten by many accounts more talented but have not won the big one since and only have gotten there once.
