I find these to always be very interesting, and naturally even more so when they involve our team: http://www.nfl.com/videos?videoId=09000d5d80c6ff20 I think that link might just take you to the generic video site for NFL but you're looking for this video: Week 10 Anatomy Patriots vs Jets Week 2 Rev Anyway, it covers the Favre INT and then the big play by K. Faulk on 3d and 9. BTW, seriously, on 3d down and long in crucial situations we ALWAYS need to watch K. Faulk and Welker, those are the two bastards that seem to make big plays in those situations.
We really need to watch Welker in the rain tonight. I can definately see him getting atleast 12 targets tonight
I still feel Favre doesn't throw the pick if they don't call that bullshit PI on Cotch therefore the Faulk play never would have happened either.
Expect the Pats to dink and dunk all day, using Welker and the short passing game as an alternative to running the ball. Cassel's high completion % is misleading. He doesn't throw many passes beyond 15 yards. I really hope Mangini and Sutton have the Defense prepared. The big key will be applying pressure on Cassel, collapsing the pocket and either sacking him or forcing him into mistakes. Cassel = pinata.
I'm not sure if I'm seeing this right, but it looks like Brick's helmet flies off just as Favre releases. If Seymour hit him in the helmet hard enough to do that, it should've been a hands to the face penalty.
I watched that game 3 times. There were many penalties that could have been called on the Pats on both sides of the ball. I'm not blaming the refs for that game, but it was pretty damned ridiculous. Hopefully it will be a balanced game with the flags now that it's a marquee matchup.
