If Eric Barton is not taken out by a sniper upon arriving at JFK International, he is one lucky man.

WOW! Wide right. This game is ridiculous. What next??

Marty blows another one. Eric Barton is saved from postseason infamy. Great game.

At this point in his life, I''m usually pretty comfortable writing off Madden''s ""strategies"" as often times simply being babble. However, I really have to agree that it''s simply insane to run the ball into the line 3 times in a row because you feel you can count on a 40 yard field goal in the rain on a sloppy field (rookie kicker aside).
I don''t know who was commentating on the Seattle/St. Louis game, but I''ll take Madden any day over those guys. It was so bad that I stopped watching the game.
Druid, that was Mike Patrick, Joe Theisman and Paul McGwire. Those guys are probably the worst broadcast crew in all of professional sports. They usually do Sunday Night Football and I am getting sick of it. Paul McGwire was a kicker, and a mediocre one at that, and acts like he knows everything. I really wish I had ESPN radio at home so I could listen to that instead of those jokers.

Ugh, no joy in mudville. The fiesta I was at was an emotional roller coaster culminating in a near riot. Interesting game, but I can''t call an utter lack of discipline on both sides a ''good'' game. I haven''t seen that many yellow hankies since.. I''ve never seen that many yellow hankies.

It was a great game unfortunately the Bolts came up on the short side of the stick. But the Bolts had a great run. No one expected them to do this well this soon and the future is definately looking up. Yeah there were some strange decisions in crunch time but Kaeding has been pretty clutch all season, however I would have liked to see a couple of runs to the outside on that last series.
Not just run to the outside. How about pass the football? They still had some yards to go. Madden knew what was up.

I cant stand all three of those guys...and that game had them a their worst.
They are basically completely reactionary and will comment on every single play as basically that players entire career or a teams entire performance.
I cant stand them..
Case in point.. they babble away that no one is sure how Shawn Alexander will play because of his injury.. he runs two good runs in a row they gleefully explain that ""oh he''s fine""
1 play later on a 3rd and 2 when the Chargers opt to pass the ball instead of run.. Theisman comments that oh the coach decided to pass instead of run because Shawn Alexander is hurt.
MORONS!
Aint nothing new about the world order..it's been playing since the day they put George Washington on a quarter
I don''t mind Mike Patrick so much, but he''s been stuck in a booth having to mediate a couple of morons. With a decent color guy, he''d probably be okay.
I''d complained about McGuire on another thread (didn''t know his name, wanted to know who the ranting and foaming idiot was). He the worst sort; knows better than all of the coaches, every player is either the best player at his position or just made a bad decision that should cost him his starting job (and sometimes a combination of both).
Clearly, the Chargers kicker was not on the bus. It doesn''t matter if you''re at the front of the bus or the back of the bus, only if you''re on the bus.

I thought it was over - Go JETS!
That Field Goal that was denied because of the timeout made me crack up. I totally expected him to miss it when it counted on the 2nd one.
Good game.

Good game but Jets can''t beat Steelers or Patriots...
Jets should enjoy this one - it is their last of the post-season. Chargers just CHOKED... absolutely ridiculous.

Rookie kicker.
When Al and John starting saying that, I just though ""whatever"". Then they brought up the stats, and sure enough, wide right.

Bit off topic but.

Who were those guys?

I agree, I sat there and yelled at the TV hoping to connect to Marty - ""Run to the outside man, run to the outside, swing pass for heavens sake.""

Ah, the joys of MartyBall. Now you know the pain Browns and Chiefs fans felt for many years, Stric.
