The Thanksgiving football games started with the Houston Texans making a little trip to Detroit to take on Matthew Stafford and the Lions. Lions had the lead for most of the game until the Texans made a comeback, tying the game in the fourth quarter. The Texans managed to to score a field goal with only 2:21 left in overtime. The biggest headline coming from this Thanksgiving game was the thrown challenge flag Lions' coach Jim Schwartz threw when Justin Forsett landed the Texans a touchdown. Forsett scored the touchdown on an 81-yard run. By Schwartz throwing the challenge flag, reviewing the play was not possible. Schwartz was called for unsportsmanlike conduct. The touchdown run should not have counted as the replays show that Forsett was down near midfield. During overtime, Lions' kicker had a chance to wrap the game up with a win, however his 47-yard field goal attempt was no good. Texans can now add another win to the record.
Game number two showcased rookie quarterback Robert Griffin III and his Washington Redskins and Homo Romo and the Dallas Cowboys. No surprise here but RG3 led his team to a win. Ironically, this game featured Indians and cowboys. I find it a little humorous because this matchup team just reminds me of the game we all used to play as kids "cowboys and indians." LOL. The Cowboys didn't go down without a fight. This was the first game that Tony Romo lost out of six starts on this holiday. Romo had a career high throwing for 441 yards. RG3 became the first Washington quarterback to throw for four touchdown passes in consecutive games. I don't care much about the rookie quarterbacks other than Griffin. Not only does he have a great throwing arm, but the man can run the ball when he has to. He is the only rookie quarterback that has managed to play consistently in my opinion anyways. Cowboys owner, Jerry Jones, isn't sure that his team can manage to get a record of 8-8. He's just now realizing this? With Homo Romo at the wheel this bus just ain't going anywhere anytime soon. The final score was 38-31.
On to the only game that mattered Thanksgiving: New England vs the Jets.
I think finally the Jets can stop thinking that they can defeat the Patriots. Even though the Jets have not won the AFC East under the coaching of fat man himself, Rex Ryan still managed to run his mouth. After the beatdown they were handed has to be a huge wake up call for New York. Patriots embarrassed the Jets with a final score of 49-19. Ryan calls this rivalry matchup a "nightmare of a game." The loss should not have come as a surprise to the team. The Jets simply have no talent. The first quarter ended with no score on the board for either team. Second quarter was simply unbelievable. Within fifty-two seconds, New England had 21 points added to the scoreboard. Jets' quarterback, Dirty Sanchez fumbled the ball after running into the big ass of Brandon Moore. Sanchez claims that he was thinking of a different play in his head when he fumbled. Um, really? I think its just because he sucks. By halftime, the score was 35-3. Brady threw only twenty-eight passes and ended up with 323 yards with three touchdowns. Many are speculating that obnoxious Rex could potentially end up being out of a job by the start of the next football season. That's a hell of a good idea. You cannot keep backing a quarterback who seems to get worse every week. Denying Tim Tebow the chance to make a difference for this team is a little ridiculous. The Jets won't be making playoffs this year, so what else do they have to lose by giving him a chance? Apparently, Tebow has been dealing with some broken ribs. Many are questioning why Rex even kept him as active on the roster having known about the injury. They claim that Tebow was cleared to play if need be. He didn't even see the inside of a helmet last night. Why the Jets keep hanging on to Tebow, I don't even know. His teammates call him "terrible" anonymously. He never gets a chance to prove himself. He's just publicity for the team. I will never understand why Toe Sucker keeps backing Dirty Sanchez and keeping him as the starting quarterback. Sanchez, you're done. Rex, you're done coaching. Fireman Ed isn't even interested in you guys anymore. How sad. Your widely known biggest fan was nowhere to be seen during the second half of the game. The man has even removed his twitter page. Throw in the towel already. Geez louise. I'm interested to see how everything plays out in New York...
New England are starting to show that they are Super Bowl contenders yet again. Great news to the Pats Nation!!!! Even without Gronkowski the Patriots still came out ahead. It sucked we lost Edelman in the second half but he's got ten days to get better before New England faces rookie Ryan Tannehill and the Dolphins. Bill Belichick now has 200 wins. The Patriots are now 8-3.
These Thanksgiving games were worth the almost 12 hours of sitting in front of the television.
Hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving!
