1st and 10 (Week 15)

Ten Things I Thinked:
- Jets were looking at the scoreboard. what th-!!! now only the last game, against Oakland, is the sure win. or maybe not even.
- nice rebound, Big Blue. now put the damn knives away.
- yelling like mad as Nawlins dissected the Big D. impressive. Nawlins coach (and COTY frontrunner) Sean Payton made overtures for Tony Romo back in the offseason, but The Tuna laughed that off, and so Eastern Illinois' best QB made do against Eastern Illinois' 2nd best QB.
- great job, Mr. Payton. but with that visor and your babyface, you look ... like ... Frankie Muniz. c'mon, Page 2, have you seen this??


- can we use Peyton Manning's thick neck as a run defender? just asking. one fan actually thinks he's really a character in Harry Potter.
- Rex Mundi! at least for another week.
- Bill Belichick (The Hooded One, Sith/Jedi) inexplicably didn't make adjustments and the Pats get whitewashed by the Dolphins last Sunday. now that's former-Belichick-disciples 2, Belichick 0. the difference being, he practically ignored the existence of Eric Mangini while acknowledging Nick Saban. what, you owe Nick now, Bill?
- what else can we say about LT2? i'm plunking down for him to get 35 TDs for the season. Co-MVP with Drew Brees, please.
- no offense to Mario Williams, but Reggie Bush and Vince Young (or lack thereof) are giving the Texans/fans lots of nightmares. Could be another Philly in the making.
- holy crap! my man Gregg Easterbrook was right! an indubitable Shanahan-iarrhea!
