Hey Josh, nice job on the rankings. Been super busy here at work, I don't think I'm going to be able to do tomorrow's either but I might be able to do a couple after.

No problem, happy to help. I may not be able to either since I have to get on the road!

Okay, apologies, they are an embarassment to all of football for only going 19-1 last season, very unsuccessful. What is more upsetting is that they are only 7-4 after losing the best player in the NFL, Tom Brady. Oh yeah, and they lost Maroney, Harrison, Thomas and a host of others and can only muster up 7 wins while other teams lose one player and their season is lost.
Brady is not the best player in the NFL. One of, certainly, but not THE best.
I'd take Peyton Manning over Brady.
Now that is funny!

No, it's still a debatable topic. I think Brady has the edge right now but him not playing this season is evening the playing field for catch up.

Jimmy Johnson thinks Spygate is overblown
We originally posted this WFAN interview as having been conducted during Super Bowl week. It actually dates back to September. Regardless, it’s still interesting to note how commonplace former Cowboys coach Jimmy Johnson feels the use of cameras is by NFL teams. He admits he used them to steal signs all the time.
Q: How about the spying thing Jimmy. You’re a coach does that bother you what Belichick did?
JJ: Oh please. I’ve said it on our show. Eighteen years ago a scout for the Chiefs told me what they did, and he said what you need to do is just take your camera and you go and zoom in on the signal caller and that way you can sync it up. The problem is that if they’re not on the press box side you can’t do it from the press box, you have to do it from the sideline. This was 18 years ago.
Q: You think the NFL came down too hard on them?
JJ: No, no, I said it on the show. He was wrong for doing it for the simple reason that the league knew this was going on not just in New England but around the league. And the league sent out the memorandum to all of the teams saying you cannot do this. And so that’s when Bill Belichick was wrong. After he got the memorandum saying don’t do it any more, he did it.
Q: Did you ever steal signals?
JJ: Oh in a heartbeat, yeah. Yes I did.
Q: Via video, Jimmy? Or no?
JJ: Oh yeah, I did it with video and so did a lot of other teams in the league. Just to make sure that you could study it and take your time, because you’re going to play the other team the second time around. But a lot of coaches did it, this was commonplace.
Q: But did you do it by taping the signal caller?
JJ: Yeah.
Q: Oh you did.
JJ: That’s what I’m saying. I was saying one of Marty Schottenheimer’s scouts, Mark Hatley, who has passed away now, Mark told me that’s how they did it, and Howard Mudd their offensive line coach with Kansas City, who now coaches for Tony Dungy, he was the best in the entire league at stealing signals.
Q: Where’d you put your guy who was videotaping? Where was he?
JJ: My guy was up with my camera crew in the press box. So you’d just put an extra camera up with your camera crew in the press box who zoomed in on the signal callers. That’s the best way to do it, but anyway you can’t always do that because the press box camera crew might be on the same side as the opposing team. If they’re on the same side as the opposing team that’s when you need to do it from the sideline.

Great stuff, I had heard this before but not in this great of detail. Brady vs Manning, just go into Cold Hard Football facts and find the matchup, really not as close as you think. If you go playoffs alone, there is no debate.

Yeah, you kicked our asses. I'll be the first, and probably only to say good game. I was pretty shocked to see the score.
