What a play by Watson! 21-3

Byron Leftwich is also a 3rd quarter beast. They showed the stat, a 137 QB Rating in the 3rd quarter, the highest in league history. He's been looking real good of late.

What's the general feeling going into the second half from you Patriots fans? The Jaguars offense looks like it's starting to get into rythym and moving the ball at will. Meanwhile, the Patriots offense has been stagnant.

That shot by Carmelo over Dirk was amazing. Especially after my moronic friend was going on and on after 'Melo missed the first free throw about how Melo isn't a winner and can't make a big shot. But yeah, the Nuggets find another way to lose.

I was just thinking the same thing, but I guess he's completed 9 of 10 passes! The Jaguars are starting to move the ball now.

I really hope that New England is considerate enough to return the silver platter, on which Jacksonville is handing them the game, back. Fumbles, bad punts, and stupid penalties.

If I'm Jacksonville, I'd put Garrard in the game. Their offense has been completely ineffective, and atleast Garrard gives them another dimension.

I think Houston is bluffing. Same thing happened with Michael Vick. Just driving up the trade price. If they don't get any offers they like, they'll draft him, but I think their intent is to trade the pick and get more picks.

Same here, but I'm gonna be sitting pretty when Jacksonville wins!

It's best baseball?

Culpepper is a damn good QB -- so this conversation is over. He's also got the Pro Bowls and Stats to prove it. As does Michael Vick. You know what matters most? Vick's team, while completely uncapable of winning without him, wins with him.

He never had a losing season with the Patriots. 10-6, 9-7, and 8-8. And apparently NFL teams think highly enough of him to want him to Coach their team now. He probably couldn't rip apart a Bill Belichek, Bill Cowher, or Monte Kiffin (the man behind TB's defense) apart -- then again, how many QB's can? You bring up the best of the best defenses, but here's the problem with that one, there's 25 plus teams in the league with defenses that aren't that good. When asked the question 'who is the toughest player in the NFL to defend?', why do you think Michael Vick is the most common answer? How many other QB's require defenses to completely revamp their gameplan against them? Vince Young has similar agility, similar speed, is taller, can throw better, and will be a tougher person to tackle because of his size. You say guys in the NFL can tackle -- well, why do Michael Vick, Dante Hall, and others consistently make people look foolish trying to tackle them? Why is Reggie Bush a good pick, then? And once again, who are you to say how smart or capable of reading an NFL defense is? Being African-American doesn't make him any less capable than anybody else! Hell, Fitzpatrick, from the Rams, supposedly scored a perfect score on the Wonderlic, which would make him the only one to ever do it, does that mean he's going to be a great NFL QB?

He's a talented player too, but I think he is a Junior. In 2004 he had 41 TD's and 4 INT's -- but his numbers declined this year by a lot, this year. He did also miss two games, though.

Eh, oh well, he's eligible to enter the draft now anyway!

You're making the mistake of attributing team accomplishments, or a lack there of, to individuals. And I will say that Jake Plummer doesn't scramble, anymore. Dante Culpepper and Donovan McNabb are out for the season, so they can't be in the playoffs, anyway. Michael Vick would've been in but I'm not convinced of that defense. How many other scrambling QB's are in the league?

Yes, but how many 235 lbs. running backs have the moves of Vince Young? Hell, even Shaun Alexander and LaDainian Tomlinson don't crack 225. Take a guy with the ability to break tackles, and give him moves to where defenders very rarely get a clean shot at him. Who are you to say Vince Young's not smart? Do you know him? Basically, he just left a defensive mastermind in pete Caroll completely unable to even contain him. Add 20 lbs. to Michael Vick and tell me that defenders wouldn't have nightmares of trying to stop him.

John Elway is another QB that scrambled, particularly early in his career. I do believe he had some success in his career. He may not have run as much as the others, but certainly having the ability there put pressure on defenses. Besides, NFL Defenses may be faster, but at about 235 lbs, Vince Young doesn't rely on just speed. He can break some tackles as well and NFL players or not, it's tough to tackle what you can't get a clean shot at.

If they want to "appease" fans, they sure as hell better draft Vincent Young if he comes out. They need a QB like they need a RB (not at all) and right now, he's a god in Texas.

Yep, they kept bringing up how Vince Young gave them lockerroom material by guarenteeing a win at the Heisman ceremony and how he has a Rose tattooed on him (which has to do with the 5 women that played important roles in his life and nothing to do with the Rose Bowl) and all that stuff... well, ESPN gave Texas all the lockerroom material they needed by talking about how great USC was and ignoring Texas. Tha's the biggest reason I wanted Texas to win, perhaps that makes them think twice before doing stupid things like that. As for Lendale -- man, he's amazing. I've been saying all year, Reggie Bush may be the best player in the country (which is in question, now), but Lendale White was the best RB in the Nation. On another note, Vince Young's heisman pose with the glass football was great!

One of the best games I've ever said. Vince Young is absolutely amazing -- I can't remember a performance like that! I think he proved himself to be the best player in the Nation with this one. Absolutely unstoppable -- no matter what USC did.

9-7, though I must ask... how the f*** do you miss an extra point? Rushed or not... it's still an extra point!

Can't believe the mistake that Reggie made by trying to pitch the ball. That was just dumb. USC is lucky Texas can't hold onto the ball.

Yeah, sorry for not being specific, but I'm really ok with it either way. Prizes or pride -- it matters not to me.

I'll do it, SFOC, sounds fun. Plus I'll get a point on everyone when the Pats lose!
