The formula for beating the Pats is actually a very simple one since they are not doing anything incredibly different that hasn't been done before.

1. Bump Moss at the line with a defensive back and have a safety over the top, do the same to the reject from Miami. Any crossing patterns have a linebacker pop Moss/Miami reject within the first 5 yards (remember the Raiders when they used to intimidate any crossing receivers)

2. Inside rush and run blitz Brady often and every time he touches the ball put him on his back even if it means a late hit once in a while and he will fumble (fiscally Brady is not a strong QB)

Now the problem with my theory is that Dallas does not possess the interior linemen or the coaching brains to execute either of those two, Wade is a defensive coach yet the weakest part of the team is the defense. Last night they couldn

Well, looks like some boyz in the 'hood were responsible for Sean Taylor's death, although indirectly. Appears that at least one of them (or a friend) was at a party thrown at his house by his stepsister while everyone else was up here for Thanksgiving. The perps didn't realize he would be home. Here is a link to a great column by Mike Wilbon of the Wash Post on the subject of young, black men not getting away from bad influences.

Any game Patriots play will draw much attention. Either they will decimate the opponent by a large margin or we would love to see this undefeated team finally be taken down by a humble team.

The Cowboys remind me of chinese food; they're sweet and sour (win every game but boy do they struggle) and by the end of the game they give me the runs!!

When you watch Patriots game, it's like steak and ale. You know exactly what you are getting and you can always count on decent steaks.

Bills are fortunate they have a good kicker.

Philadelphia Eagles had one final chance this afternoon with a punt return of 64 yards by Westbrook with less than 2 minutes. And at 4 yard line, Feely throws an interception and Seattle wins 28 to 24.

I was a bit disappointed with Coach Gibbs' decision to call time out at the point of snap to ice the field goal kicker from Buffalo. I don't know if he called it or his coach called for it but that is not very good sportsmanship in my view.

Yes, there is controversy about that rule. It amazes me that he didn't know he couldn't call two timeouts in a row. Very strange. Anywho, we can't blame the loss on that decision alone. The Skins are just not playing good football.
