And don't you think the Pats will look to blow the Bolts out of the water Sunday night?

(Monday morning is going to suck workwise) :lol:

EDIT- AND

I think the Bolts will change all of their signalling also...
It's gonna be a slobberknocker for sure. :headbang:

I'd root for SD, but I only have two words for them:

Norville Turner. :x

I have a feeling "The Curse" will continue this year as well. :twisted:

It's been a level playing field though - every team has videos
of our coaches and their signals too, they just didn't tape them from the sidelines, they got them through league approved methods.

The Pats will get the other team's signals, just from a different vantage point.


BTW - They were applauding Peyton and his pre-snap shenanigans
yesterday on Boston sports radio. Saying how smart it is cus he and Dungy know all teams are trying to figure out his mannerisms.
So to do all those things and mix it up is a great job by the Colts.

Turner hasn't won a big game as head coach - why start now?
Plus Rivers hasn't matured yet.

That's one thing I admired about the Redskins in their reign.

They always used TWO coaches giving hand signals.

One was the real play - one was a dummy play.

and what's all this stuff aboooot Manning's "shenanigans?"

There's nothing wrong with a balk in football. :P

Unless you've been warned by the league and the officials about using as a ploy to draw people offsides, like Manning has....

Besides, isn't everyone supposed to be set for one full second before the ball is snapped?

I think the bottom line is that competition is so close these days, any
edge that any team can get is golden.

They're all pushing the envelope with the rules....agree?

I think so.

Agreed.

I'm not knocking Manning- believe me, he gets mad respect from me, kinda like Jeff Gordon (hell I'm actually starting to soften up a bit on my stance about Jeff...I don't immediately go into Earnhardt mode and start throwing things...now I wait three seconds, and then start :lol: -maybe its old age)

I am with you on this. I think the Pats are going to tear up San Diego this weekend.

Didya see the new #1 team in the NFL last night?
Crikey, it was like slicing a hot knife through liquid butter.

I hope the Horsies put up more of a fight than that.
:-D

On a side note: why the %&*&&* didn't I draft Moss???

Born and raised in Massachusetts and a true blood yankee I am a Pat's fan, yet I'll admit and not pretend I never did follow football. I stand by M. K. :-D I do watch a bit now and then so I can spend time with my son, he's a sports nut. :D
