Around the NFL - Week 6

Big props to cam newton he was amazing down the stretch and he is becoming that top 10 QB

His arm is stupid strong. Cam is a franchise QB.

Lol absolutely the worst play I've ever seen...thanks chuck pagano for that special teams blunder

I am still confused on what they were trying to do. Reminded me of Jim Zorn.

I don't think its supposed to come under center like that. Basically the punter is supposed to stay back and take the direct snap and throw it up. It's like a punt version of an onside kick. It also should never be tried against NFL defenses.

I completely thought about the Jim Zorn play as well.

That mistake essentially cost Pagano the game because it allowed the Pats to go up 2 score. Made them one dimensional

That is what I thought but the punter just takes the snap and waits to get tackled. That is the part that I was confused by.

Yea I am surprised NFL teams still try that kind of fake.

And Just like Zorn that decision might be a big part of the reason Pagano loses his job, even though Zorn was already on the way out.

It looks like they executed it wrong, because the punter moved over with the rest of the line. Strangely we executed it correctly(extra blocker and a long snap to allow time for the downfield action), and a good heave scores:

versus what the Colts did

You can watch it and see that no one stayed behind the center at first.

Bottom line to all NFL coaches, never ever let your ST coach trick you into this.

Basically, Belichick >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>zorn>>>>>>>Rich Kotie>Gruden>a turd in the road>>>>Chuck Pagano.

Belicheat of course was ready for the Colts to implode:

"We expected this to be a gadget game in the kicking game -- the onside kick, some kind of fake, fake punt, fake field goal," Patriots coach Bill Belichick added. "We didn't know what the play was going to be, obviously, but they went on the swinging gate type play and we went over to the overshift and made sure we covered the inside part and we reacted well to it. So it was a heads up play by our punt return unit."

the afc south is horrible, Colts should be running away with the division.

Co-worker of mine says this year we may see one or two teams get in the playoffs with 7 wins.....what do you think?

I could see the east winner at 7 and the afc south.

Going gmen tonight 30-27 in a shootout. Murray breaks through finally with 100 yards 2td
