And this is why most teams don't play press coverage every play.

Agreed.

WTH was up with his comparison of Sean Payton and Mike McCarthy to the Tortoise and the Hare?

How does he come up with this tripe?

Speaking of the Tortoise and the Hare, does anyone notice the difference between the snaps of the center for GB with Rodgers in the shotgun formation compared to Gurode doing it for Romo in the same type formation? The center for Green Bay fires off his snaps off like a bullet to Rogers and...well, then there's Gurode's snaps that looks like an underhanded toss to a kid in little league. My guess would be that if Gurode could snap a ball like that, it would easily buy Romo another quarter to one-half second of time in the pocket.

It kind of sucks when you don't have a pass rush and your Corners have no closing speed.


This is crazy I expected more from GB oh well. They might as well lose out and go for Michael Johnson they need the pass rush.

I have yet another thing to be thankful for this week.....my FF opponent started the Green Bay defense against me. When this game started I was up 137 -131. I'm up 137-128 now.

...and I may just make an improbable last week upset and gain entrance into the playoffs after residing near the cellar for the the first 10 weeks (Brady was my first pick). :D

They look horrible defensively tonight.

On any given play a team can have no pass rush if the OL steps up. His comment stands.

Press coverage serves a purpose and I am all for it, but in doses. Not every play.

Ok, the Saints are beginning to scare me.

Yeah if play like this the entire season. Problem is the inconsistency for the Saints.

Wow what a hit by Harper. But I hate the taunting.

He is really bad.....I'm thinking about muting the game.....Although I do like Jaws....he's one of the better guys ESPN has.

New Orleans has the type of defense to give up this type of lead. And I'll find out if they did tomorrow morning when I wake up.
