HedleyLamarr Posted November 30, 2012 Share Posted November 30, 2012 Can't wait to see the Friday edition of "How the Refs Screwed the Saints" tomorrow morning!It's only fair....Saints gave the Falcons their lone loss to date, the Falcons end Brees' streak after he and the team rubbed it in the Falcons' faces last year on setting the record.

Cujo Posted November 30, 2012 Share Posted November 30, 2012 No touchdowns. Five interceptions. Brees has set the bar pretty high for Mark Sanchez this weekend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kramerica Industries Posted November 30, 2012 Share Posted November 30, 2012 You can actually thank the Jets for that.They had, like, four games on the west coast that year, and the NFL revised their scheduling so that east coast teams don't make more than, I think, two west coast trips a season.Why there is no such rule for west coast teams traveling east is another question. But this is also why you see situations such as the Steelers last having played in Seattle in 2003, and not again until 2015.EDIT - Yep. Played in San Diego, Oakland, San Francisco, and Seattle that season. They also lost all four of those games, the last two occurring as part of their late season collapse that knocked them out of the playoff picture.

The Cards also played the Patriots on the road, again, as they did last time the NFC West met the AFC East. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If baseball, basketball and hockey teams can routinely play late night games and jet across the country to play 18 hours later, NFL teams can deal with taking a four hour flight and playing 24 :censored:ing hours later.

rams80 Posted November 30, 2012 Share Posted November 30, 2012 It's OK, the Rams looked at game film and I'm sure that Permanent Acting Defensive Coordinator Jeff-Dave McWilliams Jr. will actually have the team prepared for a running QB this week.

Lights Out Posted November 30, 2012 Share Posted November 30, 2012 Lights Out owes me a formal apology for giving me a hard time with my Kaepernick pick in that mock draft last year. Wow, I forgot all about that. That being said, a team that has to choose between Alex Smith and Kaepernick might as well not have any quarterbacks.
