If Oakland's offense and defense could match Seabass and Lechler, Al Davis would have enough rings to show his age in tree years.

I don't think people realize how good he was last year.

Seriously, this kid is a monster.

He can do it all too, but the question is, can he stay healthy?

But it was haynesworth who fit right in and made some good plays, while Ochocinco was no where to be found on Brady's record setting night. Well he had one catch, but they never played him. Went with the hurry up offense of welker and branch with the tight ends instead.

With Manning gone, I need to drop Collie completely and pick up Branch, I think...Brady is going to have a record season.

I don't like how they are using him.

Too many draw plays & he's sticking in pass protection too much. They need to line him up wide more and throw more screen passes to him.

Man, Moreno might get a little cute too often, but man does he put on some serious juke moves and fight for yards, takes the contact, especially for a little guy.

They really have underutilized him this game, stemming back to that fumble I imagine.

He's a guy that needs to get 70 to 80 receptions on the year, just dangerous coming out of the backfield.

Yeah, they should at least get him involved in a few more screens.

Maaaaannnn... Denver's whole team is on the sidelines eating butter sandwiches in between plays.

Jason Campbell is painful to watch. I feel like I'm watching a rerun of 60's football with an average QB.

Am I tripping or did Fox just burn the last timeout with 5 seconds before the 2 minute warning?

That's not a terrible idea, alot of coaches do that.

What a monster of a game Brady had vs The 'Fins. 500+ yards is insane and to do it against 2 good pass rushers in Cameron Wake and Jason Taylor (all be it a aging one) is impressive the Pats O-Line was pretty damn good.

Glad to see The Eagles win game 1 hopefully we go into the Sunday nigher and beat the Falcons.

It's not a bad idea, it conserves more of the clock. But if you stop the clock too close to the 2 minute warning it gives the team trying to kill the clock a play where it can pass without worrying about whether it stops the clock (It's going to stop anyway). If you're struggling with your pass defense sometimes that something you want to avoid.

Or you could do what Cam Newton did and rush everyone to the line and catch a defense off guard by snapping it at 2:01. Loved that play, savvy move for a 1st week rookie. That's the kind of stuff Peyton Manning or Drew Brees do and announcers ejaculate over.
