Living in DC, it’s been almost impossible to escape hearing about the shooting death of NFL Pro-Bowl safety, Sean Taylor. After seeing what’s happened, I’m pretty sure of two things. 1) If I were a professional athlete, I’m not sure how much I would trust the media, either; and 2) as somebody whose personal business is public knowledge, I’m not sure anybody would be able to keep me from keeping a gun at home.
The Ravens gave the Patriots much more of a game than I thought they would. With their frequently anemic offense, I thought the Pats were just gonna roll over the Ravens. Not so. At the same time, as I was watching that 4th quarter, when Kyle Boller’s coach turned back to a pumpkin and they couldn’t convert on 3rd down, I knew they weren’t gonna make it. I didn’t think it would take as many coincidental circumstances, like Baltimore calling a timeout as they were about to make a stop on 4th down, but once I saw that? I knew it was a wrap. Next up? The Steelers. I think the Stillers could probably put together a game similar to the one the Colts, Eagles, and Ravens did, only I think that if they have a lead late in the 4th, they’ll be able to salt the game away. Ben will convert a 3rd and 2 for the game.
AJ Feeley is what we thought he is. And I still think Donovan’s gone next year. But if the Bears can’t get a consistent running game, I don’t want him going there either.

send him to b-more!!!
Damn, man, I been jonesin’.
The team that beats the Pats will have to be physical. Brady is like any other QB when he gets hit. The tuck rule was invented for him, afterall. And Randy (Soft) Moss gets alligator arms when he gets hit.
Regarding the Ravens-Pats game, coaches at some point have to stop trying to control everything and let their players play. Anybody watching knew the Pats were going to try a sneak, and the Ravens were ready for it.
