They've met before... I don't think Ryan likes him. Marcell hugs too much.

The vegas peoples are just saying the Jets aren't as bad as their record would say, and I think for the most part, people agree with that.

Relax man. There's an element of human error in this sport and everybody knows it. The refs placed the ball at the spot they thought it should go and then Orton hiked and spiked it. Not a lot of time for the booth to initiate a review of the spot. Asking for perfection is ridiculous in any facet of the game.

I'd like to establish a long first drive. Rack up a bunch of first downs right off the bat. Keep their defense on the field and tire them out early. This won't be a pretty game. We'll have fight for every yard and every point.

I get green bay and miami... good think I use nfl gamepass through vpn.

It didn't even click for me. I was thinking Google Incognito browsing...

I'll stop saying that I hate his moustache.

side note, you can find the RCW patches on ebay to put on your jersey, if you are so inclined. I bought a few at the beginning of the season and they look great.

I saw the other thread about Browner after I asked my question, oh well. I looked up Tyms a little and I don't think he'll be much of anything to worry about. He has size and speed, see Aaron Dobson, and made some acrobatic catches in preseason. Some don't expect him to play this week due to limited reps with Brady and would more likely expect to see him during the weeks 7-9 timeframe.

Exactly. I think it's very possible that we go 6-2 going into our bye week. EDIT: This isn't to say that I think the games at home against Minnesota or at the Jets are a lock by any means. Each game provides their own unique challenges.

This game may not officially be labeled as a "must win," but it will definitely set the tone for the weeks leading up to the bye.

I wouldn't mind trading him for a first. The only trouble I see with it is that our RB future might be in question then. As amazing as Freddie has been playing, who knows if he'll be back next season or in 2 seasons. If spiller and freddie are gone, who gets the start, or what is our running committee rather? Try and draft a winner?

Back on topic, I saw that the Pats activated a WR and a CB... anybody have insight as to why and what impact that could have? or we can go back to talking about EJ...

It's a 3 on the 1 to 10 scale of funny. Nonetheless, I printed it out and put it on the desk of a coworker who is unfortunate enough to be a steelers fan.

Who wants to be that the first play will be a handoff up the middle from the shotgun?

I thought it was because I was new here that I didn't get it.

Guy in my league dropped Shaun Hill for Orton.

I don't know if alum status really come into play here. I think any veteran who has been in the league since 2005 knows how to get the attention of first and second year players. ie: not his first rodeo.

This! I expect a little more fire from Orton. That was something that EJ didn't do. He was usually even keeled and while that's a good trait to have, I'd like him to show a little more emotion out there.

Thanks for the article. It's a great read.

This is from a Bleacher Report article on 9/3/14. Take it for what it's worth since it is BR, but it doesn't seem outside the realm of possibility. He's currently on the Reserve/Non-Football Injury list. It leaves open the remote possibility of Alonso returning to the practice field for a three week stint to determine if he's fit to return to the roster or be put on the shelf for the rest of the season. That window opens at the conclusion of Week 6. It seems highly unlikely, but at this point Alonso isn't closing the door on the 2014 season.

I call it my Winnie the Pooh outfit... Red shirt and nothing else.

So I have to reply?? This is probably a poor choice of timing for me to start following the rules.

It's nice to see Preston Brown get some recognition. >>Despite Alonso’s absence, third-round rookie Preston Brown has been a very bright spot, logging plenty of snaps and leading the Bills in tackles (40). Depending on whether the team decides to re-sign linebacker Brandon Spikes after his one-year, $3 million deal ends following this season, Brown will likely play the strong side and Alonso the weak side. Also, Colin Coherd just picked us to win with the +7 spread in part of his Blazin 5 picks.

It's very exciting to see that the Pats have hit a rough patch. It feels like a trap though (cue Admiral Ackbar meme). How many times have we seen the Pats create something out of nothing with Bill? That being said, I do think that this is the beginning of the end. Bill seems to have streched it too thin this time.
