NFL Talk - 2008

The Pats fans are absolutlly bullshit that the Jets/Dolphins got moved to 4:15 PM

Turns out Chad Pennington and Brett Favre won’t be meeting in prime time.
The Jets’ latest shocking loss - 13-3 at Seattle - ruined a potential showdown for the AFC East between Pennington, savior of the moribund Dolphins, and the quarterback who replaced him in New York, Favre.
Instead, NBC has decided to show Denver’s visit to San Diego, with the AFC West title on the line.

But CBS still has the option to move the Dolphins-Jets game at The Meadowlands to 4:15 p.m. Sunday, which could create a potentially favorable situation for Miami.

If New England takes care of business and win at Buffalo, the Jets, losers of three of four games, could enter the game eliminated from the playoff race. That could be a big break for the Dolphins because the Jets might have nothing at stake, other than pride.

But the way Brett Favre is playing, it might not matter. Favre, who was named to the Pro Bowl last week, has one TD pass and six picks in the past four games.
Meanwhile, Chad Pennington, who was passed over in Favre’s favor for the Pro Bowl, has six touchdowns and one pick in the past three games.

I guess the same could be said about the Eagles/Cowboy game being moved to 4pm. But the Eagles won't lay down because they hate Dallas. The Jets won't lay down either, they just suck.
