What exactly were the Saints challenging there?
They just decided that they didn't need that many Time Outs !
I have Brees on my fantasy team and I'm still getting crushed....thats how poorly the rest of my guys did this week.
Who else do you have on your team?
I agree with you on Favre and Johnson (if the Titans can somehow squueze into the playoffs). At this point, I'd have to vote for Favre.....
In my league where I have Brees, my RBs are Michael turner and Deangelo Williams.....they killed me this week. It didn't help that my opponent had monster games from Favre, Harvin and Austin.
Edit: He also has Maroney (who just scored again!!) I'm getting killed this week.
In the SatelliteGuys league, I don't have a team of marquee names, but they're doing just enough.
Matt Schaub, Antonio Gates, the Bengals defense- plus two guys I picked up off waivers- Miles Austin and Jamaal Charles.
Miles Austin is this year's waiver wire player of the year in tons of leagues around the country. Good pickup!
Yes, but they fumbled the ball twice (Maroney and Moss) on that drive, and also had a couple of stupid penalties.
Laurence Maroney has developed a nose for the end zone this season- starting to remind me of Curtis Martin and Corey Dillon.
So now we know, 3-4 yards short of the line of scrimmage satisfies the 'get the ball back to the line of scrimmage' part of grounding.
Manning does "more with less"? Less than Brees?!
Reggie Wayne is 10x the receiver that any of the Saints WR's are. Joe Addai is also a superior RB to Pierre Thomas, just as Dallas Clark is the better TE to the Saints' Jeremey Shockey. Need further evidence Brees does more with less and makes everyone around him better? Last year, Brees threw for 5k yards and didn't have 1 single receiver to go over 1k yards! Oh, he's on pace to do the same this year.
The only other player besides Brees with an outside shot at league MVP right now is Brett Favre.
An ironic note about this Patriots-Saints game- this year's Super Bowl is in Miami, and the last time the Super Bowl was in Miami, both these teams nearly made it to Super Bowl XLI.
New Orleans is putting on an offensive clinic.
All I have to say- may god have mercy on the Washington Redskins next week.

I have never EVER seen a Belichick-coached team get torched like this.
Even in the games where they gave up lots of points, they still kept it very close.
And this is coming from someone who PICKED New England to win the game.

It's looking very likely that the Pats will be hosting a game on Wildcard Weekend (they're now one game behind both the Chargers and Bengals, and trail in tiebreakers to both teams).
I'm expecting Denver, Pittsburgh or Baltimore to be visiting Foxboro on the weekend of Jan. 9-10.
