Week 4 Review



Roughing the Brady. Thanks to Keith Olbermann for the roughing the Brady phrase. I thought that both the roughing the passer calls were a little weak. The one where he got hit in the helmet...ok. But the one where T-Sizzle hit him down low. He barely brushed his thigh pads. I like Brady as a player. He even admitted that it wasn't a big hit, so why was he calling for the penalty. Rodney Harrison said it perfectly when he called out his former teammate and said to take the skirt off and put on some slacks. I'm glad the NFL did not fine Ray Lewis or Ed Reed. On that particular hit...or non-hit, I know that its not the players fault and the official calls it, but the only QB's in the league who get that call are Brady and Peyton Manning. I am a big fan of Manning and still like Brady. The thing is, why didn't this rule get changed after the 2005 season when Carson Palmer tore his ACL and everything else like Brady? Because Palmer is not Brady and does not have the rings? You saw all the pink on Sunday being worn by the players, well, if they keep this rule in place they might as well give QB's the pink jerseys to go with it. Everyone will know only 2 hand touch the guy in the pink jersey.




Pink. I thought it was cool that the NFL and the players wore pink. This is the most masculine sport in the U.S. and these guys were not afraid to wear pink. It was for a great cause and the NFL and players should be applauded for it.




Broncos. They are 4-0. Now it gets tough. We will see what they really are made of in the upcoming weeks. Looking at the schedule I think they will finish the season 8-8, which is better than I expected to start the season. If they beat New England this week I may re-evaluate everything.
