Gamethread: Jets @ Buccaneers 12.13.09
Who: New York Jets @ Tampa Bay Buccaneers
When: 1:00 P.M. EST
Where: Raymond James Stadium, Tampa, FL
Their Last Meeting: After Chad Pennington had once again injured his shoulder, Vinny Testaverde and Brooks Bollinger split some time as the Jets quarterbacks. This would be one of the four games the Jets would win in 2005 as Curtis Martin scored the Jets two touchdowns of the game while Matt Bryant kept the Bucs alive with four FG’s (as Tampa was without their star, Cadillac Williams) but it wouldn’t be enough as the Buccaneers would fall 14-12.

Already Bucs fans are calling for an upset with Sanchez staying behind in New York. Both of these teams have come a long way since 2005 but the Buccaneers just haven’t been able to generate much this season and facing a top ranked defense in the NFL, the Bucs or their fans are not in much of a position to brag.
Whether it would be Sanchez or Clemens starting, New York already knew they were going to run a lot against the Bucs defense and that still hasn’t changed but with a change to the QB position Clemens who looked very rusty last week will have to be accurate and alert when it is necessary to make the throws the Jets need to keep eating up the clock and moving the chains. With that gather round and get ready for some hard hitting action in Tampa. Leave us with your thoughts and comments through the afternoon.

Yeah I will try posting a link for you when the game begins
On another note. Lets dominate today.
-
I am the most optimistic person in the world especially when it comes to the Jets.
But if they find a way to lose this game I dont how I would react. Hopefully it won’t get to that situation.As with the game itself, expect a big game from the Linebackers today. We will successfully run the ball and win the turnover battle.
Final Score 17-6 Jets -

INT – Harris

Why have woodhead in the backfield there? Why not Greene or Jones?
-
thanks ben
-
LWSquad says:
It wasen’t supposed to be a run. Whatever. We’ve got a lead.
-
J-Kay says:
Dmazz- Woodhead is probably more likely to break the big play, plus the intention was probably a pass to Woodhead
-
Kellen looks like he thinks he’s facing our defense. I think practicing against our 1st team D got him shook.
-
Keep up the pressure, Freeman is gonna suffocate in this game!!!
-
m eazii says:
Wow our offense aint doing anything right now…defnese can’t let them score
-
Maxxx says:
HOLY CRAP!!!! The Smith-Smith connection!
-
Wow what a fake punt…lol it worked…we are 3 for 3
-
Cmon clowney…u need 2 get that first down!!!
-
I don’t want to hear anybody trash Schotty today. This is great!! He’s really found a way to overcome our quarterback limitations.
-
Damn it kc! U need 2 make that throw!
-
Maxx I agree…so far schotty is calling a good game…we should b up 10 to 0 but clemens missed a wide open cotchery! FML!
-
Yeah, there were those limitations I was talking about.
-
AKA Jack says:
Brad Smith is having a hell of a game so far.
-
I can just imagine how dominant we would be at this point with jenkins in the middle! This defense is great!
-
Notable scoring Update brought to you by DMazz…
Denver 0 Indy 14
Miami 7 Jags 0
Car 0 NE 0
Det 0 Bal 0
Cin 0 Min 0 -
Panthers just scored off a New England INT. All the more reason to win today!
-
Car 7 NE 0
-
Juice says:
Clemens is making Sanchez look so much better.
-
Yessss….if ne loses we definitely have a shot at the divison!
-
clemons looks very scared
-
boozer says:
this is one ugly game.
-
13 points wins this game .
-
we need a good play for a touchdown here .
-
I can only imagine if we had a good vet qb this season – whew we would be pretty damn near unstoppable.
-
VoodooJetfan says:
Dominant defensive effort so far …. Damn Revis is good !
-
Even 12 wins this game with our defense dominating like this
-
ben says:
Gholston just decided not to go for the punt. Just strolled in the end zone
-
Smith is playing fantastic!
-
Pats turned it over again! But…Miami is about to score. Helps our WC chances at least?
-
jsdickinson says:
Thanks for the Justin.tv link
-
Greene is a monster! I am getting his authentic next year, I lve the way he goes for contact and always gets a few more yards, plus I love his number 23 and his last name goes perfect for the Green Jets!
-
klemmens sux!! at least he cud be our back up next year cuz no one will sign him
-
I have zero faith in KC. I love the guy like an uncle but he’s just not a starting qb for a reason
-
Clemens is looking more and more like a career back up. I say let Ainge get some snaps !!
-
Yea clemens hasn’t showed too much in his audition for a starting job with another team, but at least he hasn’t turned it over
-
hangar says:
KC just plain sucks
-
well is up to the defense / this is 2002 bucs. or clemons really have no faith ti throw
-
Steve says:
I have no faith in Clemens. I have nothing against the guy, he’s a good guy, but just because your a great guy does not make you a great football player. Wasted opportunities. I hope our defense continues to play stellar..because otherwise it’s a good possibility we will lose.
-
jetfaninla says:
Is anyone else having problems with this website? The forum is all screwed up and it looks like a webpage I would get on my blackberry.
And Clemens sucks.
-
dave b says:
picked up the greene throwback the other day. looking forward to watching him grow into a starter for us.
watching this online @ a meeting, gonna rewatch on tivo later. Clemens looks like he’s not being too effective BUT at least he’s not turning it over and that’s all that matters.
-
Wow. I cannot believe how badly Clemens is playing. I expected him to be rusty, but dang! He is missing open receivers and can’t even get out of his own way. Making a game that should be nowhere near close, close.
They should be up at least 2 TDs at this point, given field position and their running game. Instead, they’re letting an awful team hang around. And we know how that can end.
-
we should just run until we break one
-
Tampa is really, really, really bad. Like, wow.
-
Yea tampa does suck but clemens is letting them hang around on life support…this should b a blowout by now
-
greg sec 130 says:
If Clemens gets pulled/injured, is Brad Smith going to QB until the 4th Q (then maybe Ainge) or will we see O’Connell.
-
We need to score and put Tampa out of it’s misery. Stop messing around Jets, one mistake and it can cost you the game!
-
The defence is giving them all the opportunity in the world we should be up by 21 at the half but Clemens is ineffective. Lets see what Anige can do. Give him the start after the half.
-
joey says:
kc is giving me heartburns,this dude will be out of football after this season,time to let brad smith play
-
As long as Clemens doesn’t make any big mistakes I don’t see how they can lose this game.
Code Red all game. Code Red! -
ck is indecisive,he sux,og my lord,he sux
-
Finally, maybe that settles KC down
-
holy moly ….clemens to woodhead. who ever would’ve thought.
-
Wow, now I have to admit that was a very difficult throw 2 make and he made it! Nice 2 see woodhead make a play!
-
NamVetJet says:
Just like Chrebet used to do it
-
There we go … decent throw to Woodhead. Now pound it in damn it.
-
run,run,and then run somemore is the only way to win this game
-
It’s incredible that the Bucs suck so bad defending the run, but against us they become pro-bowlers.
-
dum play shottie instead of runnig forward we go backward
-
GREENBLOOD says:
Brian Schott’s propensity for stupidity
-
please fire schitty after this game,please rex,why are we getting cute when we are running the ball
-
Nice penalty…geez.
Just run and get closer for the field goal.
-
Or don’t! I don’t care!!
-
Wow clemens suckssssss!
-
What the @%#^ KC!?
-
trade clemmens for a 7th round draft pick at half time
-
oh my god,we are going to lose this game,same old jets
-
Prediction…Feeley 7 field goals. Jets offense 0 touchdowns.
-
This is like a root canal. You know you have to have it but damn is it painful.
-
fire schitty

GP says:
7th round pick?! We should trade Kellen for a couple of free passes to Busch Gardens at halftime.
-
who would give you a 7th round pick!!!!
-
thank God he made that field goal
-
re: bucs poor run defense, also shut down ATL thought that was gonna be a running blowout.
we;re fine, just don’t turn the ball over and the Tampa offense will give us the game
-
kc is out of football after this year,please heal up fast sanchito
-
id rather see sanchito throw picks than kc looking lost
-
Schotty has nothing to do with it, Clemens just can’t convert and our running attack is stalled. True, the double handoff was getting a little too cute, but he has been calling the plays pretty well.
-
Ainge after the half !!
-
Kyle says:
I am having a difficult time accept that Kellen is really this bad.
-
If we’re starting Clemens, how bad must O’Connell be?
-
Harvlis says:
Schotzy with another brilliant call. We are methodically walking the ball down the field and he goes for a double reverse. How great would it be if they got rid of him and Clemens at half time. We are lucky Feely was clutch. At least it is a two score game. Clemens couldn’t be worse. He’s missed ten plays, at this point in the game. Tell me Ainge couldn’t have done a better job than KC.
-
Schotty better stop trying to get fancy just run and use play action schotty!
-
definately ainge at the half
-
gotta say, Clemens reminds us we are really lucky to finally have a potential franchise quarterback in Sanchez.
-
kc a waste of a 2nd round,so was mike nuggent,whose the gm again?
-
Thank God for our D today ….. don’t know who is worse on offence though.
-
I wonder how Brad Smith’s arm is these days.
-
good field position again
-
Keep pounding it !!
-
just run strait up
-
joey dont compain, mike T had done a great jom at GM (revis, harris, sanchez etc).
-
Yep, let the Thomas Jones show start right now
-
TD JONES
-
Mark B says:
I’m not a KC fan but let’s be fair: the guy does not have a lot of game experience and is basically a rookie. He is not moving the ball in the air but, more importantly, he has not turned the ball over. TB defense will tire, the running game will start firing, and we will be set. This is a win.
-
Thats what I’m talking about !!
-
Great handoff by clemmens!!
-
Atta boy, TJ!!!!
-
TD yeah yeah yeah
-
Woooooooo! Lets go jones!!! 33 yard td!!! Woooooooooo!
-
That is what needed to happen!! YES TJ!
-
just run baby
-
More of that, please.
-
Scouse Jet says:
I’m calling that game now.
Just pound the rock for the next 30 minutes.,
-
Wow. What a crappy series by Schot. 4 plays, 58 yards, TD.
Now if Schotty can only complete some of those passes he has been missing and not take delay of game penalties.
-
No reason to throw the ball. just keep pounding it till the bucs wear out.
-
HAHA THAT’LL WORK!
GO TJ!
-
Jetsrdone says:
Steve, how come it’s never Schitty’s fault?? It’s Pennington’s, Favre’s, Sanchez’s Clemens’ but never Schitty’s………Schitty has got to go after this game!!! No more of this cutesy play-calling!!!!!!!!!! Put Callahan in charge of this offense already!!!!!!!!!!!!! I can’t stand Schitty!!!!!!!!!!! He’s the worst coordinator of all-time!!!!!!!
-
HarrisFan52 says:
This defense is looking great! TJ is the man, what a monster Thomas Jones is. Lets keep it up. GO JETS!
BTW the Pats are losing! THE PATS ARE LOSING!
-
now pressure qb
-
Watching our d against the Bucs O is really enjoyable
-
I would love to bring back tj next year with greene and leon as our 3 monters in the run game, but I doubt it
-
Where’s all the fans who said that Clemens was better than Sanchez and should be the starter??
-
Lysol says:
Clemens=3rd string
RUN>>>RUN>>>RUN!!!Please
Aside from that, i wish we could play the bucs every week. Our defense looks awesome today
-
Yeah GP its great watching them tee off on the bucks. Now pound it in again before the half !
-
Run all day long. Get 500 yards on the ground. No stupid play calls.
How nice is this defense. Can you imagine them dominating Peyton Manning in the playoffs. It would be like old times, for Peyton. Now let’s win the games against good teams.
-
I like woodhead and all, but where’s Shonne Greene?
-
KC’s career is really gonna take off once he realizes he’s actually left-handed
-
woody is doing a good jod
-
@ boozer. I really don’t think they run Shonn Greene enough.
-
next play should be run play FG is good
-
He has made one decent throw today. But no turnovers either … we know what we have in KC. Lets see what Anige brings to the table in the second. We are winning and our defence is dominant today. What can we loose ?
-
Feeley for league MVP
-
david says:
Does anyone read this blog??? Anige is inactive today. STOP TALKING ABOUT ANIGE.
-
Who let that little kid on the field….oh wait…that’s danny woodhead.
-
I agree lets see more Greene. We traded up to get him for this purpose. To pound on a team when we are in control.
-
jon in bk says:
Haha, maybe it’s because I had such low expectations, but I’m not as upset as some people with Clemens. He hasn’t turned it over yet, and maybe some stuff opens up in the 2nd half. Hope everyone can agree on Sanchez at this point, though. Like that was ever a real question.
Great performance so far- just have to bury them in the 2nd half.
-
Also nice to have a solid FG kicker. J Feely has really excelled this year.
-
Sorry did not realize that Ainge was in active today.
-
Put Ainge in for second half please.
-
Steve in Philly says:
In Feely we trust!
-
I hope they use number 23 more in the second half
-
I have a feeling with woodhead becoming a wes welker type of receiver in the future with some good coaching
-
Why is everyone so worked up over Clemens? He’s terrible. So what? He’s a one week temp for a playoff contender playing in a shutout and not making any mistakes. I’d rather have that situation than be the one win Bucs with a first round QB playing even worse.
-
LETS GO PANTHERS!
-
Great defensive effort no first downs and 15 yards … wow !
-
LMP23 says:
KC is horrible. At least we scored an offensive TD. This will not be good enough for the last 3 weeks.
-
You’re right, LMP. That’s why we should be happy that Sanchez is coming back.
-
No first downs and 15 total yards….WOW!
-
Great minds, Voodoo, great minds
-
I think Clemens gets a hard rap because at one time he was seen as a potential starting quarterback here and yet he still can’t make some simple throws.
I hope this will finally put an end to the Clemens chants when Sanchise has a bad day.
Actually the Clemens chants will now probably turn into Ainge chants…lol.
-
Good point Maxxx !
-
Oh, and why are people bashing Schotty? Except for the reverse- a play that’s worked well for them all year, he’s put up 19 points with a 3rd string QB.
-
Man, we have more points than they have yards at the half, how cool is that?
-
Clemens is just awful!
-
I’d rather have JP Losman under center right now.
-
The only guy on this team who hasn’t been phenomenal today will never play for us again, and, honestly, will probably be in the UFL before long.
So why worry?
-
How is Kellen Clemens a pro quarterback? He can’t throw a pass. What was he doing, while they were paying him millions to be a back-up — playing XBox. I was not looking for him to have a great game but, he is an embarassment.
-
“I hope this will finally put an end to the Clemens chants when Sanchise has a bad day.”
AMEN!
-
30 min defense
-
reality jet fan says:
Clemens is garbage. All you kc supporters should be banned from watchin games! AWFUL!
-
Ed L says:
the best part of this game other then watching our defense dominate…
is seeing rhodes in some piles….and seeing danny woodhead play great….
other then that all the people calling for clemens this year…i hope we all now agree that mark is the best qb on our team
GO JETS!!! GO PANTHERS!!!
also who would we rather win miami or jags i am having a tough time figurin that one out
-
TO’s are killing NEP, they’ve moving the ball all over the park and then turning the thing over
-
I think you have to root for Miami.
I think they have to lose atleast two for the Jets to jump over them. -
Or Boller. Or Holcomb. Or AJ Feeley. Or Jon Kitna.
-
I’m with you Ed, when MIA go forward I’m praying they mess up, but then I’m doing the same when JAC do the same. I guess we win, and what’s meant to be will be.
-
field position is going there way hope defense could hold until our offense could do something.
-
ml says:
Clemens cannot start in the CFL much less the NFL. He has had all the time in the world and a dominating run game/defense and he is missing open receivers by 30 ft. Cmon KC supporters. I don’t even like him as pur backup at this point.
-
@ boozer. we only need MIA to lose 1 to jump over them. if we only win 9, we’re not gonna make it even if MIA has 8 wins.
-
Shonn Greene needs to work on those hands.
The legs I like, but the hands…
-
ok. maybe thats why Greene isn’t in the game. doh!
-
Damn after a nice run too !
-
Who wanted to see more Shonn Greene?
-
well need some drama it was not going to hold up anyway so it’s like a good punt
-
yep exactly what i was gonna say. that’s the reason why he doesn’t get the ball more often. i just don’t understand how RBs can fumble the ball that much. protect the ball!
-
Yea shonn greene needs to stop fumbling, but he is a great runner
-
@kyle – that was me.
-
Greene needs to walk round all off season with a ball dipped in butter and every time it touches the floor: $1000 fine.
-
it was going to be 3=15
-
vurtualife says:
If there was any time to fumble a ball, it would be with a 19-0 lead in the 3rd quarter against the Buccs… of course, that’s not to say the kid can continue to pull these antics, but there’s no denying he can certainly run hard.
All he has to do is hold on to that damned ball, and he’ll be a solid RB for us
-
I wanted 2 see more shonn greene too…I would put him back in there too, lets see how hw responds! He is our future rb
-
@jetfaninla I meant we need Jax to lose at least two for the Jets to jump over them. So it would be better to root for Miami.
-
Bart Scott just made a huge Booboo
-
Keep that fumbling rookie on the bench. And bart scott so overated!
-
Stupid way to give up our first first down.
-
bart scott no way worth is contract.
-
got it. stupid, stupid play by b scott.
-
Bad penalty to take ! Got to be smarter than that !
-
C’mon big sack and keep them at 0.
-
bad penelty
-
Don’t put greene on the bench! We are winning by 19. This is the time to test him out. Sit Jones and make it Shawn Greene all day … untill Tampa scores.
-
Damn Revis is good !
-
Bad pnealty but he is making plays for us…he is having a good game!
-
well bart you gave up the shutout
-
time to put leon in
-
i mean thomas jones
-
you guys are foolish saying Bart Scott is overated. You dont see the things he does to open up big plays for harris amd pace. On top of that he gives the Defense it’s toughness it completely lacked last season.
-
he comes the drama
-
Ghey
-
defense has to work
-
What a joke! Who wouldnt see that coming. Only the jets could make this game interesting.
-
Oh for the love of god, don’t make this game interesting, please
-
Green all day would mean a jet loss.
-
He gets paid like a top 5 lb. And hes not.
-
Miami is doing everything it can to lose the game. 3 Ricky William Fumbles.
-
Agreed Scouse !!
-
Patriots the same Dmazz, another 3 TO’s
-
well an easy game know have to play harder
-
It’s a good job they’ve got no O
-
Just saw the onside replay. I like to point fingers and James
Ihedigbo BLEW IT! The guy next to him left early too but Ihedigbo wasn’t even looking for that. -
Oh no get up Mangold !
-
MANGOOOOOOOOOOOOOOLD!!!!
-
Mangold is fine guys!
-
good first down
-
is clemons waking up
-
Kellen is good out of the pocket, strangely.
-
Two good throws by Clemens in a row?
This is my surprised face.
-
There we go …. signs of life from the offense …. now roll on them !!
-
15 min to go we need another FG or TD to put it away or just use up the clock when we get it
-
Need some points here to make it a 3 score game.
Just to make 100% sure.
-
Another nice throw and catch ! First down !
-
4th qter clemons
-
Eddie DiGio says:
Everyone chill out, KC is doing his job, he is what he is…
The Bucs cannot score a TD on the Jets D, we’re going to get some points here, wrap this baby up and get ready for Atlanta
-
Well, at least we ate a lot of clock.
Hard to get mad at Feely today.
-
no good that last play should have been a run
-
COMEON! FINS!!!!!!
-
shottie has some bad play calls we should of got closer
-
nice game going on in ATL.
-
Anyone who says Bart Scott is overrated, only uses stats to evaluate players and has probably never played football before.
The guy does all the dirty work and is the main reason TE’s and RBs dont run free like they did under Mangini. David Harris is also an all-universe player now that Bart is next to him.
-
It doesn’t really affect us, but I’d rather play a demoralized and eliminated Falcons team than one surging toward the postseason.
-
OMG the FINS Through another pick
-
Picked by Revis !!
-
GAME
-
We always play good enough to lose. How the Bucs have outscored us in the second half is horrible. Clemens hasn’t started in a long time but, what is Schottenheimer’s excuse.
-
REVIS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
-
And defensive player of the year!
-
THE BEST DEFENSIVE PLAYER IN FOOTBALL. PERIOD
-
MVP!
-
<3 Revis
-
defense gets game ball today
-
Why they would even throw his way is mind numbing.
-
Wow I thought he was taking it back to the crib on that 1
-
Please dont put him on the cover of madden next year
-
BigKatFan says:
MARQUIIIIIIICCCCCEEEEE!!!!!!!!
-
Touchdown !
-
NFL.COM says that way MARQUES COLE???? Was that revis?!?
-
this game is over
-
I dont get how people just think that the Bucs were just going to let the Jets come in here and destroy them. These guys are professionals. There are no gimme’s in the NFL.
The Jets are doing exactly what they are supposed to. You dont win a trophy for making it look pretty and there is no BCS
-
It was revis not cole
-
well just rush the passer and keep it 3 points carlin from loudmouth must feel very stupid right now
-
Agree totally Eddie—the Jets did exactly what they needed to do today. It was a smartly called game.
-
A big last 7 minutes in NE and JAC,
MIA with ball on own 10 with a 4 point lead and 6 mins to play
NE just taken 7 point lead with 7:20 to play. -
They have a chance to keep the Bucs under 100 yards.
-
let tj get his 100
-
MIAMI WINS!!!!!
-
Carolina roughing the kicker on their own 45, stupid, stupid stupid.
I’m calling it game for NE -
Rhodes with the INT
-
Kerry with an int! Now that was a nice int!
-
Air Kerry?
-
Nice pick
-
we need to motivate rhodes this guy is part of this defense future attitudes could be changed
-
Revisisbeast says:
NE won
-
miami won
-
we win see ya next week
-
damn Pats won but at least Miami won. hipefully Indy loses so they don’t mail it in on Thursday night against the jags
-
I guess we pull for the chargers tonight so that Indy don’t seal home field advantage til they beat the Jags Thursday
-
is bart scott injured?
-
Pats get every god dam call. 4th and 13 and a roughing the kicker !
-
Give the ball to TJ so he can get the 1 yard he needs for the ton.
-
Scott went back in.
-
Two positives from today—we won, jags lost
-
Detroit, why go for 4th and 1 when you’re losing by 45?
Then again, why not, who gives a [crap], lose by 45 or by 52?
-
Wow. Schotty really cost us that game.
Oh wait, we won. Again.
-
Brabble says:
If the Broncos lose to Philly and the Jags lose one game do the Jets and Dolphins get the Wild Cards?
-
greg sec 130 says:
Don’t forget Denver losing too. They can finish 9-7 if the Ravens win out. Cincy losing too doesn’t hurt, maybe they lose next two games to also offset Ravens… only helps.
-
Brabble, no, Denver has tiebreaker over us — they’d need to lose two more.
But that would be great is Miami, Jets were WCs…
-
kd bart says:
They did what they had to do today. Play great defense, run the ball effectively and not put Clemens in a position where he has to do too much. Take it and hope Sanchez is ready for the Falcons.
-
Do we have tiebraker over Baltimore?
-
So right now there are 4 teams on 7-6 going for 1 wild card spot. We’re also 2 games out of first place in the division.
-
Nice win…. Did anyone notice Revis gettin gon B Scott for the penalty? Revis is becoming the face of our franchise.
Also funny hearing how much Revis studies game film and might be the best D player in the league then……. moments later not only “not” hearing how much Rhodes studies anymore but Iron Eagle and Rich Gannon basically killing him for underachieving.
-
How do they have the tie break?
If the Jets win out they are 7-5 conference and the Broncos would be 7-5 if they lost to philly. Right? And then it goes to common opponents and I think they Jets would win that.
-
I thought Revis was getting on Scott for the penalty too. Play was over, you were getting possesion, why pull off someones helmet. Revis was right on if he told him.
-
NE: @Buf – Jax – @Tex
MIA: @Ten – Tex – Pit
BAL: Chi – @Pit – @Oak
JAX: Ind – @NE – @CleCan NE lose 2? Possible, but not likely.
Mia could lose all 3
Bal could lose @Pit and maybe next week against the Bears
Jax could lose their next 2If the ravens lose to the Bears next week, I think 9-7 might be enough to get in. But, we run the board, and I’m sure that we’re in.
-
Looking at Denver’s schedule if they lose 1 more I think we win the tie break by having beaten Indy. So winning out would 99,9% certain get us in. 10-6 is a play off score, 9-7 I think will be too.
-
If Jax lose next week, we want them to win against NE (apart from the obvious) because it’d mean the patriots would need to go to Houston and win or go home.

Me again,
If the chargers beat the bengals next week they go to 9-5, even if they win at home to KC, we’d equal them at 10-6 by winning out and would also have the tie break over them. If everything fall in to place we could actually be the number 3 seed behind Indy and SD

Never thought about the Cinci angle.
There is no way Indi is resting anyone if they are undefeated when we play them. We will need to beat them at full strength & that’s the way it should be, anyway.

I noticed Revis getting on Scott also.
And its the way it should be. Revis is the best player on the team hands down. No one can say anything to him and he can say anything bc he goes out every game, takes on every challenge, and gets the job done. Honestly, he is the best corner I have ever seen. He should be the face of the franchise

It finally happened!!!
Kellen proved to all those who are drinking the Clemens “Cool-Aid” that he sucks!!! The man himself has spoken! This same comment can be used for Shotty too!! Who calls that many pass plays against a team that can not block the run!! Is Shotty truly that stupid??Also Kerry Rhodes stinks as well!! This dope did nothing all game and as the broadcaster stated…he was in the right place at the right time with that interception!!
Got to give a big “Wha Hoo”! to the big play makers in todays game…Jones, Revis, Harris, Pace, Mangold, both Smiths, Woodhead, and the rest of the team!!

let win the next 3 games. We have the team. We have the running game. Beating the Colts would mean that we would have peeked at the right time in the season. We won today 26-3 by running the game. We need to control the clock. We should not throw the ball more than 20 times. We ran one bad reverse. But you still have to run it to keep the defense honest. If you look at our stats there is no reason we cannot win the next 3 games. We only give up 170 yrds per game total. And yet we are only 7-6. But if we continue to run the ball we will be in the playoffs!!!

I can’t figure out if you’re praising or criticizing him here.

Nothing worse than a player being in the right place and at the right time.

Bent,
Kerry has been talking up a big game the last few weeks especially this week between fighting with his coach, and how it might be better to play for someone else at his current caliber (which is average) who would appreciate him more. So from what I saw today he was basically invisible, and I could swear I so Gholston’s jersey on TV more then Rhodes.As for the interception… Well the broadcaster didn’t sound to excited (and neither did I) because the pass was over thrown to the target receiver and Kerry was just standing 10 yards back where the ball wound up.
Yeah its nice he was there to jump up and catch the ball but where was the effort all game?
Just because he was lucky to catch this ball doesn’t mean he should be on the sidelines acting as if he is going to the Pro-Ball this year, or as if he earned his contract.
You know I had a professor in college that loved seeing end results to assignments but was a bigger fan of…”Show me the work” that provided the results. I believe it this method should apply to the players too (see Jones and Revis for example). Both were awesome today and after watching the game you knew why. With Kerry you never see it, and I believe he has been over hyped for two seasons.
The way I see it I’m sure Rex will be looking to replace him with someone that is more suited to Rex’s Defense. So unless Rex acquires the character player he would prefer to play Free Safety in the off season then Rhodes will be back next year.

Kerry was employed almost exclusively in coverage, where it is difficult to find fault with anything he did. As for there being a lack of effort, I saw him dive on a few piles, which he is sometimes criticized for not doing, so maybe the effort was there. When the front seven plays so well, there aren’t too many plays to be made when you line up deep.
The guy isn’t paid just to be solid in coverage, but at least he was mistake free and the defense as a whole played great.
What do people recommend for watching the game online and outside the market?
