People were saying be careful if the Pats have nothing to play for the last week and Giants are fighting for their playoff lives. However the opposite seems true right now. Giants have a 2 game lead for the WC spot now. Most likely they will have their playoff fate sealed as the first WC team. Pats may be playing for history.CycleDanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08933822029791530613noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33624629.post-90724179578786369122007-12-04T10:20:00.000-05:002007-12-04T10:20:00.000-05:00I love when non-football guys, or guys who have ne...I love when non-football guys, or guys who have never played or coached, make comments about a coach being befuddled by a new-fangled offense. <BR/><BR/>If high school coaches can make adjustments on a weekly basis for a team that decides to run the spread that year, I think a D-1 college coach could do it. <BR/><BR/>The difference maker will be the different wrinkles and adjustments the offensive coaches can make based on the defensive scheme designed to stop the spread that the opponent has been running for 12 games. The advantage to the spread or any option offense is that it can be tweaked a number of times to take advantage of which ever defensive scheme they are playing. <BR/><BR/>I don't like Urban Meyer, but that was why they dominated last year. Their game plan (not overall offensive scheme) was better and they made better in game adjustments. The proof of that work was against Tennessee. Florida had 2 three and outs while they read the Vol D and what their tendencies and reads were. They made their adjustments, and proceeded to whip the hell out of them.jbizhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01183347526716685789noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33624629.post-27092537903249105632007-12-04T10:14:00.001-05:002007-12-04T10:14:00.001-05:00lawdog check your spam filter.

If that is the case the timeout should never have happened becasue assistant coachs are not allowed to call timeouts, only the players on the field or the Head coach. <BR/><BR/>The holding in the endzone that gave the Pats the game is the call everyone is talking about. I thnk the bogus defensive holding call that went against the Ravens in the 2nd Q was just as big. It happeed on a 3rd down and Brady threw and incomplete pass which would have set up a difficult field goal attempt in the wind. But the defensive holding gave the Pats a first down and they went in to score a TD which tied the game at 10Codyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06113551531274057788noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33624629.post-66823323468131804302007-12-04T09:58:00.000-05:002007-12-04T09:58:00.000-05:00Say what you want, 12-0 is 12-0.

They look brutal.<BR/><BR/>And their line play on both sides of the ball is horrible for 2 straight weeks. I'm worried they are playing on rep only, but there's no fire there right now. And Dean Pees needs to take a page from Jimmie Johnson and Rex Ryan and call something interesting for this defense. Their schemes are too "vanilla" right now.<BR/><BR/>Buster Olney is reporting the Twins have requested medical files on Lester- a sign they are moving closer to the deal. And to all those "Fans" out there who are arguing against trading for Santana because of some perceived loyalty to the youngsters, look at it this way. We are replacing our #5 spot starter (Lester) with a #1. <BR/><BR/>Here's another way to look at it- Curt Schilling is now your #4 starter. Seriously. How could you ever complain about his trade? Other than the fact you just paid 8 figures for your <I>#4 starter</I>.
