Sunday Night Atrociousness

[Jack of Arcades]

On the Sunday Night Broadcast of Saints/Jets, Joe Theismann said Curtis Martin should be re-signed and he "doesn't care how much money it takes." Then he says Curtis Martin is their "best offensive player."

Umm.. what? Have you been watching the same league I have? Curtis Martin is running the ball for what, 3.5 ypc this season? Less? Curtis Martin probably shouldn't have a starting job next season, let alone be re-signed!

This game is absolutely disgusting though. Sloppy play, penalties, fumbles, general shots in feet. This is why it's so stupid to schedule all these SNF and MNF broadcasts before the season because you end up with games like this. Check out these great, marquee matchups on MNF:

Oakland at New England
Green Bay at Carolina
Green Bay at Minnesota
St. Louis at Indianapolis
New Orleans at Atlanta
Green Bay at Baltimore
New England at the Jets

And Sunday Night?

San Francisco vs. Arizona (Mexico City)
Houston at Seattle
Buffalo at New England
Cleveland at Pittsburgh
Kansas City at Houston
New Orleans at New York
Detroit at Green Bay
Denver at Buffalo
Minnesota at Baltimore

Come on!

Back at the game, the Jets had a pretty good drive going and were in FG range. Then a stuffed run and aborted snap… Mike Nugent misses a 53-yard fig just short. What the hell is that? The Jets and the Saints did everything to lose this game with stupid penalties at inopportune moments. Way to go, Jets, you're the best at shooting yourself in the foot. You win, New York! You're worse than the Saints.

PS: The ebst player this game? By far Aaron Brooks. Stuff it, Jason Whitlock.
