Running Week 5 NFL thread

Romeo, you sure you want Quinn making his debut against NE? This could get really ugly in the second half.

 

Tedy Bruschi just absolutely ran through Derek Anderson for his first sack of the season.

20-0, Pats at halftime.

 

Holy shit!
Jets drive 93 yards in two minutes...Chad 16-yard TD pass to Brad Smith!

 

Manning picked on first play after KO...Jets kick 46-yard FG on final play of half .. 17-7

Eli Manning QB rating for first half = Rex Grossman (ZERO!)

22 pass yds for Giants!

 

Brad Smith doing what he can to keep Chase Daniel from getting all the glory this weekend.

 

Adalius Thomas is back in for the Pats.

 

Mary Johnson; 9 carries, 12 yards;

It's a good damn thing they gave him that extension.

 

Quite a drive for the Steelers. 17 plays, 10 minutes to open the half. Najeh Davenport scores from 1 yard out. Pittsburgh leads 14-0.

 

Angola - and add in the 3 holding penalties, 110 yards of offense on the drive. Impressive drive for Steelers, crushing for Seattle.

 

Giants drive for TD to start 2nd half ...
Leon Washington returns KO 98 for TD... 24-14 Jets!

 

I still hold out hope, but it is waning.

 

The Steelers just started the second half with a 17-play, 120-yard touchdown drive that ate up over 10 minutes and gave them a 14-0 lead on the Seahawks.

Ok, officially it was 80 yards, but the Steelers were called for holding three times, including a brutally bad one on Heath Miller that brought back a 30-plus yard gain by Willie Parker. The offense did get credit for 110 yards gained on the drive. That doesn't count what was lost on the big play called back.

Of course, Matt Hasselbeck could bring Seattle right back if he would stop sucking. He's been bad so far. The Steelers fanboy in me is still concerned.

Edit: Oops... ok, so they beat me to it.
