Are there enough tissues in New Jersey for Cryingasaurus Rex? His Jets are now 4-6, on the outside of the outside, looking in at the teams looking in. Mark Sanchize added 4 more picks to his collection. Remember this stage of Mark Sanchez's career?
It's not surprising that Sanchez sucks so much. He was "coached" by Pete Carroll at USC. Carroll's job at USC is to cash inflated paychecks, and fail to inspire his ultra-talented teams to actually play solid fundamental football, and beat the likes of Stanford and Oregon State. Sanchez's current coach is little more than a blubbery blubbering blob of buffoonery.
This was a nice win, and important win. A loss would have been devastating, both in basic factuality, and psychologically. It's not the glorious triumph that some out there might still need after what happened in Indianapolis, but it's a vital step in the rightest of directions.
Laurence Maroney sucks. That's all I'll say. It was fun hearing the groans of the crowd at Gillette whenever he was stopped at the line of scrimmage. I genuinely hate him. Hopefully the Pats draft someone, or get some free agents that are under 30 years old next season.
The defense was excellent, but Sanchez makes that easy. He never tries to look safeties off, never does anything deceptive, nothing clever, his new nickname is Dr. Seuss because he's easy to read.
Massive test next Monday down in New Orleans. A strong showing there and it's clear that the Pats are contenders.
Wins are also extremely important at this point (more so than usual). There are three teams vying for the #2 seed in the AFC, and that coveted bye. Cincy, San Diego, and the Pats are all 7-3, and 5-3 within the conference (1st tie-breaker).
As mentioned earlier, Pats @ 10-0 Saints next Monday night.

Taking the Pats in this game was the easiest money I ever made, even though they were giving up 11 points.
ReplyDeleteThe Jets stink. Let's get that out of the way right now. And if there is one thing that the Pats have shown over the years is that they love to beat the crap out of terrible teams. They run it up like Florida playing Florida A&M. So on that alone I felt good about this bet. But throw in the fact that the Pats were out to prove that last week's defeat was just a fluke and well, you have the perfect storm of an "f-everyone" game from New England.
I'll probably take them next week too. We'll see.
