Thanks, JR. You hit it on the nose. But, I agree, you'll never convince Alby.

I just see return men as inferior players by definition. If Hester's so good, why the hell can he not play offense?"Flutie was better than Kelly, Elway, Esiason and Cunningham." - Ben Kenobi

NFL.com is so annoying with their occasional 'live look-ins'. Yeah, I appreciate the in-depth commentary and breakdown of plays but I just want to see the actual game."Flutie was better than Kelly, Elway, Esiason and Cunningham." - Ben Kenobi

Hey Jrabbit, remember that Cleveland double reverse pass?
Turns out it was illegal!
The official source for NFL news, video highlights, fantasy football, game-day coverage, schedules, stats, scores and more.
The play in question stationed versatile Josh Cribbs in shotgun, with quarterback Colt McCoy split left and backup passer Seneca Wallace split right.
» At the snap, Cribbs takes the snap and flips it to Wallace, motioning left. Forward pass No. 1.
» McCoy then enters stage left and receives Wallace's lateral. Colt then proceeds to whip it to Wallace 21 yards downfield. Forward pass No. 2, a football no-no.
"The first exchange (Cribbs to Wallace) was practiced all week as a handoff. Three times," Pat Shurmur told The Plain Dealer. "In the game, it got flipped. That kind of stuff happens all the time. I was well aware what happened. And I know the rules.""Flutie was better than Kelly, Elway, Esiason and Cunningham." - Ben Kenobi

He doesn't know when he's the hot read. This is why when Hester catches a pass, it's usually a long bomb. He doesn't know anything beyond 'run downfield very fast'.
But true.

Overstated, but not without a grain of truth. He's an incredible athlete, and his special skill seems to be anticipating seams in kick coverage and being in the right spot when that hole opens. Yeah, he's really fast, but people also underestimate his strength. He's actually a pretty good blocker in the run game.
He was listed as a DB when he was drafted and played there in preseason games his rookie year. Back at The U, he was switched back and forth between offense and defense multiple times.Apolyton's Grim Reaper 2008, 2010 & 2011

12 play, 95 yard drive in the 4th quarter. Empty backfield down the field. All Tebow throwing and running. Down to 1 minute, he ducks the blitz and breaks off a 20 yard run for the game-leading score.
The last minutes of the 4th quarter... TEBOW TIME!!!!"Flutie was better than Kelly, Elway, Esiason and Cunningham." - Ben Kenobi

Sanchez is no more the answer at QB for the Jets than Tebow is for the Broncos; and Tebow is a better athlete.Life is not measured by the number of breaths you take, but by the moments that take your breath away.

Holy ****!
WTF is up with the Jets? They couldn't score an offensive TD against Denver?
Also, did Shonn Greene get injured? I assume so, since McKnight got 22 touches.Apolyton's Grim Reaper 2008, 2010 & 2011
