Wednesday Morning Coffee Talk – 11/18
November 18th, 2009 | by PatsChowder |Too Much for the Rook?
Good morning, Patriots Nation! Here we are on another hump day, or as I like to call it, one day closer to the end of the week. The next New England Patriots game can’t come soon enough so we can hope to erase the memory of a disappointing loss. Granted, with the struggling New York Jets in town it wouldn’t be quite the achievement as it would have been to knock off the undefeated Indianapolis Colts. However, every single Patriots fan knows just how crucial these divisional games are, not to mention that week 11 starts to seperate the records a little bit. There is a big difference in being 7-3 as opposed to 6-4. Nevertheless, I’m going to go get a refill, you enjoy the headlines from this morning!
The Jets approach to Foxboro this week hasn’t been nearly as smooth as they had hoped. One AFC scout wonders if it is too much too fast for the rookie Mark Sanchez.
The last time the Jets played the Patriots, head coach Rex Ryan was calling season ticket holders and rallying the troops. This time, he is literally crying in desperation.
NEPatriotsDraft.com has posted their recent Power Rankings. They have the Patriots one spot higher than where I would have ranked them. Cincinnati is really good.
Christopher Price of WEEI has the latest news on the signing of defensive lineman Adrian Grady to the practice squad.

That same exact play has NOT worked 5,067,023 times in Madden. I could have told Bill what would happen however I do believe it’s a worse call on the Ref’s part.

This is true. I would have loved to see a challenge there, but what are you going to do. And knee, I was all for the call. Like I said, I would rather see the Patriots lose a game that they are trying to win instead of lose one that they are trying not to lose. That call was an aggressive “for the win” call. Unfortunately, it backfired.
