    without the grounding he would have been sacked. Colts defense took them out of range.

    Actually it was the offensive play calling that took them out of range.

    That was my intsant reaction, after I let the game sink in I think the Saints have about a 20% chance of winning. They need to run the ball, I think they learned something from the Eagle game last night.

    What an impressive play by Rivers to Woodhead.

    Nice start by the Chargers - let's see if they can finish this drive.

    On 2nd and 5 the Chargers choose to run and it pays off.

    Running seems to be the formula for road success. I wish the Jets could get back to doing it as good as they did in 2009.

    Chargers Oline is coming to play today. Getting a great push in the run game. Complete opposite of their game during the regular season

    Who did we decide to keep over Woodhead?

    Would Woodhead even be close to the player he is today on the Jets?
    The guy is ellusive!

    He'd probably be broken down, abused and out of the league.

    He would of been directed to run straight into a pile of defenders like Greene as he would of been playing around the time of Rex's obsession for ground and pounding.

    Cincy 4th and 1 in SD territory, down 7, and they're punting?

    Second time - I pretty sure the last punt they were just past the 50, might have been 2 to go.

    You can already tell the mood inside the stadium is changing, the Bengals are turning into the Bungles already. Its still early but its not the best type of start t have in a playoff game with a ton of pressure.

    Daltons not bad but he is streaky and has been horrible in both playoff games and is looking off already today.

    This clearly isnt the same Bengals team the Jets played. Its like week to week on which team will show up.

    yes, the last one they should've gone for as well

    but this one was even more obvious. Textbook go for it situation

    4th and 1!

    they have punter issues as well, after Huber's jaw was broken

    they brought a kid in last week, powell, then cut him after he shanked one, and then signed Mesko

    Of the 12 QB's in the playoffs, he is without question #12.
    When he is on the Bengals Offense is lethal - AJ Green, BJGE, Gio Bernard, but when he is off he can definitely be a big hindrance.
    Just not consistent enough to be considered "good".

    Being in NC and watching him a lot at Chapel Hill, I love Gio. I was so hoping they was a way he would have fell to us in the draft.

    Nice play by Dalton there - kept his composure under pressure.
