PROS
- This was the Jets best played game of the season. That Bills game was pretty good but I was more satisfied mostly because this was a must win for the Jets.
- Shonn Greene...holy fuck...he ran NUTS...granted the Colts run defense is horrible, but Greene was outstanding....hell McKnight was too...that switch to CB may have lit a fire under his ass...with Powell being out, he will need to step up.
- Defense confused Luck all game. Considering we don't have Revis, we haven't missed much of a beat out in the secondary. Cromartie has been playing like a #1 and did a good job on Wayne all game.
- The youngins starting to step up. Coples had 1.5 sacks, he's a monster. MoWilk was everywhere...those two will be problems for opposing offenses.
- Red zone offense was great going 5/5 in opportunities...Sanchez managed the game well.
- Tebow had an excellent play on the fake punt...he's converted every chance he's gotten there...well placed pass to Bellore...teams will have to be aware of this wrinkle.

CONS
- Not many cons honestly...pretty close to a perfect played game for the Jets.

[Hasselbeck]

Pros:

- For the first time this season, I am able to list this man in the positive category: RUSSELL WILSON! It's about time the dwarf stepped up! He flat made some outstanding throws in the fourth quarter when we needed him the most. That's what every person who wasn't on the Bill Simmons Kool Aid was hoping to see from the young oompa loompa.

- Defense did as good a job on the Patriots as you could ask of them. Tom Brady is going to get his yards, the key is limiting their offense to field goals instead of touchdowns and that's what the Seahawks defense was able to do Sunday (3 field goals, 2 touchdowns). A couple of big stops at the end where the defense was able to hold them to 3 kept the team in the game and allowed our height challenged rookie to actually play to the hype for once.

- Nice to see you Braylon Edwards! HUGE touchdown grab on 4th down to keep the rally alive. I know you have your drops, but you also have your "holy shit!" moments as well. Glad the latter emerged on Sunday.

- Leon Washington is still a deadly special teams weapon. Huge return to set up the final TD. It's easier to have a playaction pass from midfield than it is at your 15.

CONS:

- Pass rush wasn't as effective yesterday as I figured it would be. Chalk it up to maybe facing one of, if not the best QB in football.

- Wes Welker pretty much now is officially the proud owner of Marcus Trufant. Looking at the Seahawks schedule, I don't see many other small, white WR's to torture ol' Marcus with this year aside from Amendola late in the year. But if there's an Achilles heel to this defense.. it's a slot WR who can expose Trufant.

- We play the 49ers on a short week. Thanks for that Goodell. F*ck your Thursday Nights.

PROS: Vikings lost so the bears are in first place.

CONS: Packers won.

I thought we ran the ball rather well early in the game which opened things up for big play possibilities. Green's averages really went down when we ran the ball 8-10 times in the fourth to kill clock and Houston threw 8 in the box.

I thought Green was running the ball hard, it just seemed like the same draw trap play was getting called and that the Texans were looking for it as the game rolled on. I am very optimistic about Green being able to give a solid run option.

That is the only game I'll root for the Ravens in, thanks for beating up on Dallas. I definitely wouldn't be looking forward to that matchup- I would even say Ben Tate is worth a start next week in fantasy.

Pros

-A win at home. Redskins had the longest active streak for consecutive losses at home with eight, and that was the third most in our history. Very disappointing, considering the Redskins have one of the biggest crowd advantages, but at least the win was made, despite the Vikings doing their best attempt to take the crowd out of it in the first.

-RGIII continues a strong showing this season. The run that he broke in the end was huge, and that put him over 100 yards for the game. He has a legitimate shot at 1,000 yards rushing, but most important yesterday, he kept aware and got himself down and out of bounds on his run. He was also extremely efficient in the air, going 17 of 22 with a TD and an interception. He made timely throws when needed to move the ball, but the defense also got the Redskins good field position of three turnovers.

-Lorenzo Alexander kept making plays. From a fumble recovery, to 1.5 sacks (one which helped seal the game) and four QB hits, he did his job and did it well. It was about time for Jim Haslett to start using Zo more on defense, and it paid off in a big way.

-Josh Morgan got redemption of sorts for the Rams game. He had a great block to spring RGIII at the end of the game, and that was a big reason that the Redskins brought him in- for his blocking ability.

-Three turnovers on defense. Haslett told the defense that he wanted three turnovers today, and he got them- the fumble recovery by Alexander, Madieu Williams intercepted a pass for a touchdown and DeAngelo Hall ended up with one at the end of the game. I am very impressed with the turnover numbers, and hope that it continues.

-It's a small sample, but Kai Forbath his a 50 yard field goal, delivered on all five extra points and did well on kickoffs. Already an improvement over Cundiff, which isn't saying much, but I'm cautiously optimistic that we finally have a kicker with a big leg.

Cons

-The run didn't get going that much yesterday. While the 2.9 YPC that Alfred Morris finished with isn't indicative of his overall performance, the Vikings kept swarming to the ball and didn't let the Redskins get going. While the line did a better job in pass-blocking, they lost what they gained as far as the run-blocking goes.

-DeAngelo Hall had a pass completed on him when he was matched against Harvin early in the game where he wasn't even looking at Harvin. As a defensive back, that is completely unacceptable to get burned that badly, and I really hope Cedric Griffin can come back healthy so we can stick him in the slot, where he seemed to perform better.

-For the good job that the defense did creating turnovers, and their performance in the second and third quarters, they did not perform that great in the first and fourth. In the first, the Vikings could have had 21 points had they converted deep in Redskin territory, but I'll give the defense some credit there. However, they let the Vikings drive up the field and coverage just looked lost late in the fourth and almost let the Vikings back in the game. This is the same story for quite some time.

-Why is Ryan Grant active if he isn't getting any action. No carries, not even targeted, and Evan Royster isn't doing much. I would like to see them get Grant involved more.

RG3 is probably the most exciting player to watch right now. I have been waiting to see his speed on a break away run. LOL.....once he hit that corner he was gone.

It's def a blast to watch him. He's easily the most exciting guy to see. Only thing that irks me is he complains to the refs about getting hit after every scramble.

True, maybe if he ran out of bounds more or slide that wouldn't be happening. My rule that I would follow is that, unless you are within the opponents 10, you do not act like a running back. If you've got the chance to score, go all out, but otherwise, he should be playing the game safe.

Another thought for another thread, but with all of the players (not just RGIII) who consistently complain to the refs, I would love to see a penalty come into play for that.

Was on my way home and upset I only heard the call on the radio, but happy he sprung that one. Dude has crazy speed.
